Northern New Mexico saw rain and snow showers moving through on Saturday, bringing much-needed moisture to the area. The precipitation started in the early morning hours and continued throughout the day, with some areas experiencing heavy downpours.
The storm system produced a mix of rain and snow, with higher elevations getting several inches of snow while lower elevations received rainfall. This is welcome news for a region that has been experiencing drought conditions and below-average precipitation levels.
Drivers in the area were urged to use caution on the roads, as the wet weather created slick and hazardous driving conditions. The New Mexico Department of Transportation advised residents to slow down, increase following distance, and allow extra time for travel.
Overall, the moisture was seen as a positive development for the state, helping to alleviate dry conditions and provide some relief to water sources. Residents were encouraged to enjoy the precipitation while it lasted, as more dry and sunny weather is expected to return in the coming days.
