Big snow socks in Taos and Northern New Mexico
By The Taos News staff

Dec. 30 - 9 a.m.
A large snowstorm blew into the Taos area overnight dumping anywhere from six inches to more than a foot on the ground. Taos, however, did not bear the brunt of the storm. Reports from the Pecos area east of Santa Fe put the snowfall at more than three and a half feet. I-25 is closed from Albuquerque to the Colorado border.
According to the National Weather Service, the forecast for today and tonight (Dec. 30): Blizzard warnings are now in effect through tonight for the Northeast Plains, with winter storm warnings and advisories now in effect through tonight for the remainder of North Central New Mexico. Expect continued heavy snow, blowing snow and poor visibilities. Snowfall will taper off gradually from west to east this evening with continued windy conditions over the Northeast Plains tonight.
According to weatherunderground.com: Snow showers will continue through mid morning, with another inch of new snow possible every hour in heaviest snow showers. Locally gusty winds will drop visibilities to near zero in blowing and drifting snow. Expect extreme winter driving conditions if you must travel. Drifting snow may block or close roads.
Generally, everyone is advised to stay off the roads if at all possible. Road conditions are hazardous throughout Taos County and Northern New Mexico. If you do have to go out in the weather, get complete weather and road information before starting out, keep others informed of your intended route, and leave plenty of time to get where you are going. Check the latest New Mexico Road conditions at 1-800-432-4269.
In more positive news, Seth Bullington of Taos Ski Valley had this to say in an e-mail message this morning: "Huge snow has fallen on Taos Ski Valley. At this point, 9 a.m., our ski patrol is reporting 25 inches from this storm making this the second snowiest December (most in Dec. 1992) on record and it's still coming down heavy. If it continues to snow thought this evening we will have a new record." Red River Ski Area's web site reports eight inches in the last 24 hours and 26 from the last storm for a 38 inch base.
