"Snow levels will start high near 10,500 to 11,000 feet, then fall toward 8,500 to 9,500 feet as colder air and stronger wind arrive, so the higher northern terrain does best while southern New Mexico gets more wind than useful accumulation."
"Taos is the one open resort in this group and also the clear winner for fresh snow, with around 8″-10″ there and 6″-8″ at Ski Santa Fe, while Red River is closer to 1″-2″ and Angel Fire plus Ski Apache look like little to no accumulation."
"The individual models converge again on strong west wind behind the storm, with exposed gusts commonly in the 50 to 70 mph range and locally higher over the southern mountains, so lift-impacting wind will be at least as important as snowfall for the ski experience."
A midweek storm will bring snowfall to northern New Mexico, particularly benefiting Taos and Ski Santa Fe. Snow levels will drop from 10,500-11,000 feet to 8,500-9,500 feet. The storm will peak from Tuesday night through Wednesday night, with snow quality expected to be dense. Taos is projected to receive 8-10 inches of snow, while Ski Santa Fe may see 6-8 inches. Strong winds will follow the storm, impacting ski conditions. The weekend will be drier with calmer weather, and another potential storm may arrive early next week.
