ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — A backdoor cold front will trigger strong to severe thunderstorms over northeast and central New Mexico Sunday night.

The front will push through gaps in the central mountain chain, causing gusty canyon winds. Much cooler temperatures are expected Monday before more thunderstorms arrive.

Meteorologist Brandon Richards has the latest forecast for the state.
