Break out the mukluks and hunker down: northern and central New Mexico has been struck by an arctic front, which is bringing in loads of heavy snow and closing roads. The DOT reported heavy snow today around Tierra Amarilla and Chama.
Santa Fe officials have already reported multiple accidents on Interstate 25, which is already partially closed due to bad weather. Officials say snow along Interstate 25 from Glorieta Pass to the Colorado border forced some motorists off the road.
A winter storm warning remains in effect for parts of New Mexico until early Monday morning. According to the National Weather Service, temperatures in some areas are expected to drop in the low teens.
