Fair Driving Conditions in Silver City Area - for now
[Editor's Note: I find this totally ironic, because we have winter storm warnings all over the place for tonight and tomorrow. But that storm last night caused difficult driving conditions. I think tonight's, if it's half as bad as is predicted will be much worse. Be careful out there.]
