ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - A winter weather warning is in effect until late Tuesday evening in much of north-central and northeastern New Mexico due to snowfall that is creating dangerous conditions in some areas.

Several highways were closed Tuesday in the state’s northeastern corner where the state Department of Transportation warned of “severe driving conditions.”

The National Weather Service says significant snowfall is likely over the Tusas and Sangre de Cristo mountains and in the Raton area, with strong winds expected to blow snow and reduce visibility.



Meanwhile, high winds are forecast across southern New Mexico until Tuesday evening.
