A mix of light but persistent winter precipitation over the last 18 hours...mainly from freezing drizzle/fog has resulted in widespread impacts across the Basin...Southeast New Mexico...and the Trans Pecos. The mixed bag of precip. has lessened some with mainly patches of light snow and light freezing drizzle and freezing fog being reported. The latest forecast data does indicate that the winter precipitation will gradually come to an end by the afternoon, and the potential for additional significant ic accumlations is slowly decreasing. Temperatures will not rise above freezing today in most areas and thus the ice will have little chance to melt. Please do not travel today unless absolutely necessary. Winter Weather concerns will increase again tonight...expecially across the lower Trans Pecos and the Southern Permian Basin. As a stronger disturbance tracks across the area late tonight winter precipitation will be renewed and most likely in the form of freezing rain. This could prove to be especially hazardous South of a line from the Davis mountains to near Colorado City. Interstate 10 in Pecos county could become very icy!
