Albuquerque, NM – Albuquerque residents should brace for strong winds and dropping temperatures as a cold front approaches. Winds could reach speeds of up to 55 mph this evening, especially near Tijeras Canyon, where gusts are expected to be strongest.

According to the National Weather Service, some areas will see isolated showers and brief thunderstorms. The storms could bring light rain and cloud-to-ground lightning, with erratic wind gusts of up to 40 mph.

Temperatures will drop significantly by late tonight, with many areas dipping into the 30s. Freezing temperatures are likely in low-lying areas, particularly near the central mountain range. The coldest spots will be northern mountain regions, with temperatures as low as 30°F.

A significant fall storm system will move in Friday through Sunday. This storm will bring even colder air, more storms, and higher chances of precipitation. Residents are urged to prepare for the first freeze of the season and potential travel difficulties. Driving conditions may become hazardous due to gusty winds and rain.
