Our yard didn’t get more than a dusting, even though it snowed off and on over more than 24 hours. Albuquerque frequently has extremely strong winds blowing from East to West through Tijeras canyon. This creates the “snow hole.†Surrounding areas — especially the mountains — may get massive amounts of precipitation while Abq gets little or none.
