GALLUP — It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas.

Roads around the Four Corners were slick and snowy this morning as motorists were trying to get to work. AccuWeather meteorologist Mike Pigott said about 2 inches of snow fell in the Gallup area but that was an unofficial report. More snow is expected today and the area will be breezy, but no major winds are expected.
