Residents across New Mexico and Colorado hunkered down in biting wintry conditions Thursday that made roads impassable, as forecasters predicted there could be historic amounts of snow in the region.
Several inches of snow were expected in lower elevations. Forecasters said it could be a matter of "feet, not inches" in the Sangre de Cristo, Jemez and Sandia-Manzano mountains in New Mexico.

Maybe they can hire some curlers with sweeping brooms?

(9,301 posts)Its the drifts. I have 10 inches of snow but some 3 foot drifts.
Live 4 miles down a dirt road north of RR - havent been hearing any train whistles. Im probably going nowhere for awhile as the snow will turn to mud in a few days.
