This is record snowfall since records have been kept here (and at 10:30am, it's snowing again). We have a foot on the ground now. Add that to the 5 inches last week that had barely melted off and it's quite something.
I don't know about ABQ as a winter getaway in December and January...the average high is in the 40s and low in the 20s...and it's been 30 degrees constant for a couple of days now.
Actually, we're looking for a place to escape from Bend during the transitional times when we can't mountain bike or ski (Nov-Dec and mid-Mar to mid-May). Enjoy the record snowfall. Run outside right now and build a snow fort before you do whatever it is you're going to do with your cockles. :-)
