I think I’m done processing that this in fact did happen. Feels good to be a Texas Fighting Aggie. 10-0 overall and 7-0 in SEC. Survive and advance. Aggies never quit.

Well there’s a chance of precip for NM this weekend with a small shot at heavy precip Nov 18-19. It’s been good to have a break but could use some wet around here. #NMwx

Hiked the Tres Volcanoes trail on the west mesa. Could see several storms. The development over the Sandia Mtns was fun. This storm became a severe storm on the east side. #NMwx

I know not much compares to what happened in the TX Hill Country when it comes to flooding. But the South Fork fire burnscar combined with the fact Ruidoso is located in a “bowl” makes for optimal runoff conditions for flash flooding. This was only from 2-3” of rain in 2 hours. #NMwx

As of 12PM got 0.26” of liquid precip. Change over to snow the last 2-3 hrs. Probably 1/2” of snow but lots melting. And yes this is April 19 on the ABQ west mesa. More on the way. #nmwx

I ended up with 0.18” of rain up on the west mesa of ABQ which matches my 2025 year to date total before. Rather have had 2” of snow. Here are snow report across NM via NWS ABQ #NMwx

Check calendar. April.
From NWS ABQ: We know it's been warm and windy lately, but big changes are on the way tonight --> Saturday. It's not April 1st & we're not foolin'! Significant snowfall is on tap for the Northern Mtns and much of eastern NM! Most snow will fall btw 9pm tonight-6pm Sat. #nmwx

New Mexico this spring is already off to a rough start and probably not going to get better with a precip outlook like this. And April and May are climo windiest months. Water supply outlook is not going to improve either #NMwx

It’s looking like another high wind blowing dust don’t ignite any fire kinda day coming up on Friday. It will be interesting to see what happens to any fresh snowpack from this recent storm. #NMwx

Yes tomorrow will be another brown day with high winds and blowing dust. Travel will be tough in crosswinds and dust. Any kind of fire will exhibit extreme behavior. #NMwx

The first extreme fire weather conditions of the season in early March. Not good folks. Just don’t burn anything, create a spark, or even shuffle your feel to create a static discharge (okay a bit dramatic there). Fire that do ignite will make large runs and spot downwind. #NMwx
