Mark's Weather Outlook

Mostly sunny skies will hold throughout the weekend with temps in the high 50’s and low 60’s.  There is one little piece of doubt that exists over the late weekend storm.  Most models show the system passing well to our north.  However, there is some conflicting information which shows the storm coming a bit farther south and spreading at least some light snow over the northern mountains over the weekend.  This is worth watching but I don’t think this system will end up being a big weather maker across the area.  Beyond this weekend the weather will continue to cooperate through Thanksgiving day.

Our quiet weather pattern will continue throughout the next five days or so.  Any hope of a storm coming through at the beginning of next week is fading as all action appears headed to our north.  Look for mostly sunny skies through the weekend with occasionally breezy conditions at times and highs in the high 50’s and low 60’s.  A look all the way out to Thanksgiving shows partly to mostly sunny conditions and mild temps.

It’s not that we won’t have any weather action over the next 5 days, it’s just that the action we will have won’t lead to any precipitation.  Mostly sunny and cool conditions will hold through Wednesday.  By Thursday a dry system will push through the state kicking up winds and possibly bringing in a cloud or two.  However, rain or snow is not in the cards with this storm.  Another series of storms will pass to our north over the weekend.  These disturbances may produce a few showers but nothing of any note will fall.

After a very eventful weather weekend things will calm down considerably for most of the coming work week. It's not that we won't have any storms but the two that will head in our direction will have considerable problems and therefor not be able to deliver ant significant precipitation to the state. The first system will roll right through the state on Thursday but it lacks any moisture so a few clouds and breezes is all we will see. The second system will go too far north on Saturday to bring much rain or snow. So look for partly cloudy skies and cooler temps but little or no rain or snow.

Another winter storm will plow into the northern part of New Mexico this weekend and bring with it significant snow to area mountains.  The San Juans, Sangre de Cristo's and Jemez could see any where from 6" to 12" of snow.  As for valley locations, expect occasional snow flurries with light accumulations.  Albuquerque can expect a few flakes and possibly light accumulation along the foothills.  The storm will linger through early Monday and then head into the mid-west.

The first of a two part storm system is currently pushing through the state.  This first system is a bit warm so most snow accumulations will be on the light side.  Saturday will be spent in between storm systems.  So look for mostly cloudy skies with just a few showers and snow showers.  Snow will build back into the northwest last Saturday night and spread across northern NM Sunday.  Snow may make it as far south as the East Mountains and I-40 corridor late Sunday.  However, the real focus for significant snow will be the northern mountains and NE highlands.  Snow will likely continue into Monday morning before tapering off later on Monday.
