Weather Information
Viewers send in videos of the snow squall hitting New Mexico Wednesday. The video below is from Questa, N.M.
Along with the winds, a line of heavy snow and rain is currently pushing across the northwest. This band of snow will slowly dissipate as it pushes east over the Central Mountain Chain. There is potential for rain in the Rio Grande Valley where temperatures are a bit too warm for snow. Places that do see snow, combined with the strong winds, will really decrease visibility at times.
The storm system will quickly exit the state Wednesday night.
