Now
Clouds will continue to thicken and lower over the Central Mountain chain...upper Rio Grande Valley as well as Rio Arriba...Los Alamos and Sandoval counties for the rest of the evening. Before 11 PM...expect lower elevation rain and higher terrain snow showers to start to increase over the region. In addition...look for areas of fog to become more widespread...especially along the east slopes. Visibilities of 2 to 5 miles in fog may impact travel on Interstate 40 from the Moriarty area through Milagro...as well as other roads through the region. Patchy dense fog...with visibilities of one half mile or less...could be encountered... especially in the Ruidoso area.
