From the article: "Measles outbreaks in West Texas and New Mexico are now up to nearly 300 cases, and two unvaccinated people have died from measles-related causes.

"Measles is caused by a highly contagious virus that’s airborne and spreads easily when an infected person breathes, sneezes or coughs. It is preventable through vaccines, and has been considered eliminated from the U.S. since 2000.

"As of Friday, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said its count of confirmed measles cases in the U.S. surpassed 2024. Here’s what else you need to know about measles in the U.S."

The Friday, 14 March, dust storm started before sunrise in New Mexico and kept racing east through the Texas Panhandle, then farther north into Oklahoma and Kansas.

Old enough to remember when Bernalillo was in Bernalillo county. #NewMexico

If you're driving in/near ABQ, slow down, or maybe get a ticket in the mail. Bernalillo County is "going all in" on speed cameras. There are currently 7 cameras operating, and a budget of just under $1M (the amount collected so far) for new cameras and staff, plus half of whatever money is made from the speed cameras in the future (the other half goes to the state). https://citydesk.nm.news/2025/commission-goes-all-in-on-speed-cameras/ #NewMexico

I get these highway toll scams regularly and it’d be amusing if it wasn’t so annoying as I live in the 5th largest state in the US and as far as I know there are zero toll roads in the entire state. In the big scheme of things I suppose it’s good that the scammers are dumb though…
