Hit 31*F earlier this month.

I think Halloween night is going to be chilly up here.

Freeze Watches over northern New Mexico...snow/rain mix in the forecast for Wednesday night.

A pitter-patter on the skylites and the smell of fresh rain resulted in zero accumulation over the last hour but I could have a little more later.

Same thing this afternoon - a few drops and nothing more.

Thursday nite looks like my first day to see under 40. Low 80s/high 40s over the last week and today was the first with clouds in the sky.

A little rain today - 0.04" that saw a max rate of 0.49"/hr.

Thursday nite is calling for 36 as a low. The number keeps going down.

Calling for 32 tomorrow night and 29 saturday night.....seems like just a couple of weeks ago temps were 70F at night

Chris H. · « **Reply #780 on:** October 27, 2011, 05:04:40 PM »

It snowed in Portales and Clovis overnight (not a whole lot but it still snowed).

All we got up here was rain and a low of 36*F.

Farmtalk · « **Reply #781 on:** October 27, 2011, 05:13:59 PM »

Is Clovis higher up in elevation that u are??? And I figure 36F would have been cold enough for a little sleet.

Chris H. · « **Reply #782 on:** October 27, 2011, 06:45:13 PM »

Believe it or not, lower...but out on the plains as well. I think eastern New Mexico saw the brunt of the cold front more than we did further west.

Cienega32 · « **Reply #783 on:** October 28, 2011, 01:50:15 AM »

Today's high was 19 lower than yesterday's 80 and 2.5 higher than yesterday's low!

44 now and I had to close the windows...

Farmtalk · « **Reply #784 on:** October 28, 2011, 05:20:36 PM »

A very chilly 41F here right now.....Brrrr!

Chris H. · « **Reply #785 on:** October 28, 2011, 07:46:43 PM »

Topped at 57*F today. Chilly even in sunlight.

Farmtalk, you're very close to the snow. Send some this way!!!! $\:D/$

Cienega32 · « **Reply #786 on:** October 29, 2011, 01:32:24 AM »

Low today of 36.4. Last day to be under 40 was May 2nd with... 36.4

65.5 made for a pleasant afternoon.

We only got a dusting, and most of it has already melted....50 miles east of us they were supposed to get 6-8 inches...

With all the posts about Nor'easters and blizzards and the like, I thought I would mention that my November started with a nice, sunny 80 degree day.

Just thought I would throw that out there...

My start to November has been pretty nice too. Not up to 80*F but hit 61*F and sunny. Not bad for November. Just wish the leaves would fall so I can get the raking done!

Upper 50s yesterday and mid 60s today; temperatures I am very happy to live with

Cienega32 · « **Reply #792 on:** November 03, 2011, 03:23:14 PM »

Found my first "freeze day" this morning at 30.4. Pretty much on time in the first week of NOV (or last week of OCT).

That's my marker for closing the swamp cooler for the winter.

I'm still waiting for our first 32 deg here in Sedona. Should happen with this system coming through the next couple of days.

pretty much on same schedule as you, Cienega, our first freeze here has come between 12 October and 9 November.

emptied the rain barrels onto the plants and trees last week, ready to have them fill back up this weekend!

Cienega32 · « **Reply #794 on:** November 04, 2011, 03:41:15 PM »

No rain forecast for the weekend here - just a lot of wind.

Hope you refill those barrels!

Farmtalk · « **Reply #795 on:** November 04, 2011, 03:53:06 PM »

Dipping down to the upper 20s tonight but a nice rebound to the mid 60s tomorrow

Chris H. · « **Reply #796 on:** November 04, 2011, 07:50:42 PM »

According to the NWS, we're in for a snowy deep freeze next week...and a lot of wind this weekend.

I love winter, I love snow, but does it have to be so miserable up here?

Mom is keeping the furnace down to 65*F. Not sure if I should complain or greet the huge energy savings (we do use the oven a lot - I love to bake things).

Farmtalk · « **Reply #797 on:** November 04, 2011, 07:54:40 PM »

wasnt it like 90 something in NM just 3 or 4 weeks ago???

Cienega32 · « **Reply #798 on:** November 05, 2011, 01:56:48 AM »

On the bottom of the state, I last had 90+ on Sept 29 (91.9) and last 85+ on Oct 17 (87.1)

Right now, my 62 is 20 degrees warmer than 24 hours ago.

Farmtalk · « **Reply #799 on:** November 05, 2011, 08:15:52 AM »

How about 29F at 8AM? Getting cold fast here!

We will have a nice warm-up though, will hit the mid 60s
