Winter Storm Warnings, as well as Blizzard Warnings, are now less widespread across northeast New Mexico, as lingering snow, subsiding freezing fog, gusty winds, and cold air will continue to be the main threats for many areas through the overnight hours.

Some areas of New Mexico have already seen over 2 feet of snow, and it's going to keep falling into Saturday. Here's the forecast.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — New Mexico's governor declared an emergency Thursday after a powerful winter storm left tens of thousands of people without power as heavy snow, fierce winds and freezing temperatures marched across the northern two-thirds of the state and into Colorado.

Emergency crews were rescuing drivers who got stuck on snow-covered roads as a potentially record-breaking storm moves across New Mexico.

The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a winter storm warning for most of northern, western, and central New Mexico. This is expected to be a major storm with potentially historic amounts of snow for some areas.
