Temperatures are chilly across New Mexico with the New Year just a few hours away.
A strong cold front moved through New Mexico last night. This led to a drop in temperatures across the state today. The temperature drop was strongest across eastern New Mexico. Some places saw temperatures 20 degrees colder today than yesterday. The cold front weakened as it moved further west. So temperatures were only a few degree cooler across central and western New Mexico. Temperatures are expected to drop another few degrees tomorrow as well.
In just a few hours 2025 will officially begin, and it will begin on a cold note. Most of New Mexico will be in the 20’s or 10’s by Midnight. Though a few areas south are expected to hold in the 30’s. Light clouds are anticipated to roll into the state around 9 p.m. They will clear out before Midnight though…
