Four to six inches of snow will be possible across the area Monday into Monday night before tapering off Tuesday morning.

	Special Weather Statement
Statement as of 3:41 PM MST on November 29, 2009 ... Significant winter weather event possible across West Texas and southeast New Mexico tonight through Tuesday... A strong upper level low pressure system is currently digging into northern Mexico and will move across West Texas Monday and Tuesday. Light snow developed this morning at Queen and Artesia with rain currently falling across far West Texas. A strong cold front that passed through the area this morning brought much colder air into the region resulting in a possible mix of rain... sleet and snow overnight across the higher elevations. A rain and snow mix will be possible again Monday for the mountains and adjacent plains... turning all to snow Monday night and spreading east Tuesday across The Trans Pecos and Permian Basin. Precipitation for the plains will begin as rain then mix with sleet and snow... transitioning over to all snow. A Winter Storm Warning is in effect tonight for the Guadalupe Mountains and a Winter Storm Watch is in effect Monday for Eddy County... the Van Horn region... and the Davis Mountains. Other areas could experience snowfall accumulations as well by Tuesday and additional winter weather products may be issued. Residents and those planning travel across West Texas and southeast New Mexico should continue to monitor the latest forecasts and weather conditions as this developing winter weather event develops.
