Skies over the region were clear today giving us a view of the snow cover that remains from the storm this weekend. Below is an MODIS Aqua image at 20:20 UTC from the LANCE website.

Since I see an upper level ridge building, I don't seen any more precipitation this year. The QPF doesn't show any precipitation as least for the next 5-days either.

Based on the GAPS aerosol product from the IDEA website, column aerosol was low today.

Another low wind, high PM event occurred tonight at the Sunland Park City Yard station although very weak compared to last night.
