...ON THIS DATE IN WEATHER HISTORY...



In 1987, an extremely powerful winter storm packed with

heavy snow and high winds hit much of the Southern

Rockies and the Southern High Plains.  Hardest hit was

New Mexico where most of the state was buried by 2.5 to 3

feet, primarily in the higher elevations.  Winds around

75 mph, with gusts that nearly reached an incredible 125

mph, roared just northeast of Albuquerque.
