Otero County sees snow but will warm up again

It is really hard to believe that the Tularosa Basin got snow and back here in WV we still haven't had any snow as of yet.

I can recall trick or treating in Alamogordo with some snow on the ground many, MANY years ago.

I don't remember us getting so this early in a long time. The weather forecasters have been saying that we're switching from "El Nina to El Nino" which should bring us more moisture off the pacific the next few years. Maybe the drought for the area is over. I hope so.

It's global warming pure and simple

I too haven't seen this much snow so early. Usually we don't get significant snow until Thanksgiving. In fact I just fired up my wood stove for the first time Sunday. Got some beautiful photos yesterday.

No schitz

What a minute I went out and bought jackets, hats, scarves, mittens. My boys were walking around the store "Mom I can't move my arms" (laughing of course- Christmas Story is their favorite movie). I guess we will spend a lot of time up at Ski Apache this year to get some use out of the gear.

Everyone thinks New Mexico is all desert but New Mexico does have all four seasons and most of the time more snow than the east coast. Terrific skiing there. The elevation is alot higher there probably more so than WV. The Rockies do start in Southern New Mexico (Tularosa Basin).
