IT LOOKS LIKE THIS YEAR’S SPRING RUNOFF IN NEW MEXICO COULD BE A DISAPPOINTMENT. THAT’S BASED ON THE FACT THAT MOUNTAIN SNOWPACK TOTALS ARE LESS THAN 25 PERCENT OF NORMAL FOR THE MIDDLE OF JANUARY.
WEATHER SERVICE METEOROLOGIST JENNIFER SHOEMAKE SAYS WE LIVE IN THE DESERT WITHOUT A LOT OF WATER AND REALLY NEED THE SNOWPACK TO SUSTAIN THE STATE THROUGH THE SPRING. SHOEMAKE TELLS NEWSRADIO KKOB THERE’S A CHANCE FOR SNOW IN THE MOUNTAINS THIS WEEKEND…BUT IT’LL BE A QUICK HITTER WITH LITTLE ACCUMULATION EXPECTED.
