Eric,
How have you done in NM since you moved there relative to climo? How much is your climo and how much snow have you received?
Also, have you gotten any yet this autumn?

We’ve done okay ish I would say overall, we have yet to have any snow though. Just had our first precipitation event since early October a few days ago. Earlier this year it snowed on my birthday so that was nice. Our last 4” winter storm warning worthy storm was back in 2015, tho Feb 2021 got close in a few spots. Any accumulating snow is a really big deal down in the Desert Lowlands & people go crazy over it here like they do in the southeast.

The climatology here since the early 2000s is roughly about the same as places like Charlotte, NC. It used to snow a lot more here several decades ago but our average has cratered. Our last 1+ foot event that I’m aware of was back in Feb 1988. We also got 25” here back in December 1987 which stranded some folks for 3-4 days at the office here 👀
