The lower elevations of western and central New Mexico will have rain showers Wednesday, including a few thunderstorms in the northwest.
Rain will turn to snow showers Wednesday night, and light snow will develop over the northeast. Only minor impacts are likely, though.
Winds will be strong in many areas Wednesday, but especially in the southwest and south central mountains. Very cold temperatures will continue in the east, with cooler highs elsewhere Wednesday and Thursday.
Precipitation will taper off Thursday. It will be dry and milder starting Friday.
