ABC-7 First Alert: Winter storm hits the Borderland

A winter storm started moving through the Borderland early Tuesday with several locations waking up to snow and rain showers. The system produced heavy snow along the high elevations and a rain-snow mix for the lowland locations. The roads will be icy and snow-packed as the next wave moved through this afternoon. Please avoid travel if you can.

The storm system will exit Tuesday night but, temperatures will remain chilly Wednesday afternoon. Fog could be an issue Wednesday morning, I will monitor the conditions.

Just a reminder to protect your pets, pipes, and plants through the cold temperatures tonight. https://kvia.com/weather/abc-7-stormtrack-doppler/
