ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Snowy weather and slick roads are forecast to persist Thursday evening throughout the state of New Mexico.

We’ll see on and off scattered snow showers, especially in parts of southern New Mexico. That will become more widespread with blowing snow possible.

A winter weather advisory is still in effect until Friday morning for 1-3 inches of snow expected and 5-6 inches of snow in higher-elevation areas. It encompasses most of southern New Mexico and stretches just above Interstate 40 near Tucumcari, heading toward the Texas state line.

High temperatures will be at least 10° below average for pretty much everyone.
