2021-04-28 REPORTS: NM Thundersnow and late season accumulating mountain snow

[John Farley]

I observed thundersnow in in the Santa Fe National Forest. The picture below is from the scenic overlook near Ski Santa Fe. Light snow was falling there, and I heard about a half dozen low rumbles of thunder from this location. I could not get into the core of the storm for good thundersnow video because it stayed over roadless areas on the west slopes of the mountains, but I did have a good view of it.



A full report with many more pictures and a couple radar images can be seen at http://www.johnefarley.com/thundersnow42821.htm

Storms in NM this time of year are ALWAYS a good sign of things to come in May for the Plains!
