Got up to 20 this morning with snow falling. High today to be 32 they say. All the freezing rain missed us but we got lots of rain which froze last night if it was still standing.

Bit nippy -20 up here; the sky has hazy clouds so it is sunny but dimmed a bit.

Right now at 8:11 AM MST we are receiving the heaviest snowfall we have had all though this current cold spell and it's coming from the south. The temperature is 12 degrees.

It's supposed to start breaking up on Saturday. For once weatherbug got this one right, from the beginning.
NASA is also predicting from the ISS.

Power back after 4 days. More snow and sleet tomorrow.

NWS says it will be sunny and 54 degrees here on Friday. It may take it till Saturday to make it the 70 or so miles to you. Hang on, it'll get there.

It made it to 15 today. Warmest day this month I think. I hope it keeps going south to get you guys out of the deep freeze. My step son is a truck driver and he headed south to avoid the weather only to find himself in El Paso in the snow. He commented that your winter driving skills are a little rusty  ;)

The clouds went away this afternoon and the wind switched to the southwest. It's up to 42 degrees and almost all of the snow is gone. Why would anyone in El Paso have any winter driving skills? It hardly ever snows there.

I'm pretty sure that's what he meant, that they didn't have any. I was trying to be tactful.  ::)
