I never did care for New Mexico

Some of the worst forecasts I have ever seen came from New Mexico. Many moons ago, there was a forecast out for Albuquerque where the best one was a mere 44 degrees in error off from the proper forecast. Perhaps we should count ourselves lucky that this forecast in Las Cruces was only off by 20 or so degrees. Despite calm winds and clear skies, the temperature failed to get above 90 on Saturday, while clear skies allowed temperatures to drop to 60 degrees on Sunday morning. Those two factors led to some very sad forecasters. Sidebar: I can't figure out why Las Cruces reported an observation every 20 minutes. Everyone I know, unless there is ongoing weather, reports on the hour. Quite peculiar, New Mexico. Despite my complaints, Victoria-Weather had the top 'cast for Las Cruces.
