Rain and snow have been moving through the state today bringing very beneficial moisture. A few thunderstorms also developed across southern portions of the state. As we head into the later evening hours, these rain and snow showers will continue to push off to the east and eventually out of the region through the overnight hours.
Drier weather will return to New Mexico by Sunday morning, but it will be a cold start to the day! A Freeze Watch is in effect for the Albuquerque Metro on Sunday morning, where low temperatures will get down to around freezing. More seasonable weather moves in by the afternoon, though with highs back to around average and sunny and calm conditions.
Warm temperatures will stick around every day next week, with dry conditions in the western half of the state. Moisture from the Gulf of Mexico will work its way into eastern New Mexico on Tuesday, bringing daily, isolated thunderstorm chances through the end of next week.
