NEW MEXICO COULD REDUCE ITS BIG MOISTURE DEFICIT OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. METEOROLOGIST ANDREW CHURCH AT THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN ALBUQUERQUE SAYS THE WATERS IN THE EASTERN PACIFIC ARE WARM…WHICH TENDS TO BRING US MORE MOISTURE WHEN SYSTEMS MOVE IN FROM THE WEST.
CHURCH SAYS THINGS ARE CHANGING FOR THE BETTER FOR NEW MEXICO FOR BOTH THE UPCOMING SPRING AND SUMMER SEASONS. HE SAYS THIS SPRING IS EXPECTED TO BE WETTER THAN THE AVERAGE SPRING ENHANCED BY A STRENGTHENING EL NINO PATTER. THAT COULD ALSO LEAD TO A BETTER THAN AVERAGE MONSOON SEASON.
MEANWHILE, CHURCH SAYS THERE’S RAIN AND SNOW IN THE IMMEDIATE FORECAST FOR NEW MEXICO OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
