1135 AM MDT Tue Mar 23 2021

...HIGH IMPACT WINTER STORM TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...

.A strong storm system will bring periods of moderate to heavy 
snowfall to much of northern and central New Mexico through 
Wednesday. The heaviest accumulations will focus across the 
eastern slopes of the central mountain chain beginning this 
evening where 12 to 18 inches are expected over the highest peaks.
Strong winds in the wake of a cold front combined with the heavy 
snow will create significant reductions in visibility and areas of

passes and along major travel corridors such as Interstate 25 from
Santa Fe to Raton and Interstate 40 from Santa Rosa to Clines 
Corners. Additionally, strong to damaging gap winds are expected 
late tonight through Wednesday afternoon in the Rio Grande Valley.

...HIGH IMPACT WINTER STORM WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT NORTHERN AND
CENTRAL NEW MEXICO THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...

.A strong storm system continues to migrate from west to east
across New Mexico, bringing moderate to heavy snow to the region.
The greatest accumulations of snow will be focused on the higher 
peaks and east slopes of the central mountains, where over a foot 
of snow has already been reported. Additional snow accumulations 
up to 4 inches are anticipated, particularly over northeast New 
Mexico as well as the southwest and south central mountains. Wind 
speeds are starting to weaken, but reduced visibilities below one 
mile are still possible. Difficult to severe road conditions are 
ongoing, but should gradually improve this afternoon as snowfall 
diminishes and temperatures warm a bit. Areas of freezing fog may 
develop tonight in areas with recent snowfall. This will create a 
threat for reduced visibilities and slick road conditions due to 
black ice.
