An Arctic blast will sweep across the nation this weekend, bringing frigid winds from the north pole and plunging many locales, including New Mexico, into the lowest temperatures felt in years.

Those living on Albuquerque鈥檚 streets who have been dealing with the cold are now bracing for the deep freeze.

鈥淚 said, 鈥榊ou know what? I鈥檓 not gonna sit in our camp all night and freeze,鈥欌�� Samantha Etherton said. 鈥淟et鈥檚 just walk around all night, and that鈥檚 what we did.鈥�

Married for 14 years, Samantha and her husband, Benjamin Etherton, who have been homeless for two years, spent all night Thursday walking the streets near Central to warm up.

Come Sunday, temperatures are expected to hover just above freezing in Albuquerque and drop to as low as 14 degrees Tuesday night.

Northern New Mexicans should brace for the lowest temperatures. On Tuesday in Angel Fire, it鈥檚 forecast to be as cold as 18 degrees during the day and -24 at night. Conditions will also drop below zero at night in Taos, Chama, Farmington, Clayton and Raton over the weekend and early next week.

Temperatures dropping this low in parts of New Mexico is 鈥渘ot extremely common,鈥� according to National Weather Service meteorologist Carter Greulich. New Mexico hasn鈥檛 been this cold since 2021, Greulich said, and if the Weather Service鈥檚 lowest estimates are realized, this coming week may be the coldest in a decade.

Even political leaders are hurrying to get out of the cold. President-elect Donald Trump announced Friday that his inauguration ceremony will move indoors to the Capitol Rotunda due to temperatures expected to be in the low 20s.

But not everyone can easily move inside. For the Ethertons, they鈥檇 rather brave the cold than the shelters.

鈥淚t鈥檚 crazy, because everyone鈥檚 like, 鈥楪o to the shelter. It鈥檚 not that bad,鈥欌�� Samantha Etherton said. 鈥淚 tried Joy Junction, and I鈥檓 a claustrophobic person, (I don鈥檛 like) to be around a lot of people. I freaked out.

Sanitation and safety is his primary concern for Benjamin Etherton.

鈥淚 really don鈥檛 approve of the shelters we鈥檝e been to so far,鈥� he said. 鈥淎nd then, of course, stuff got stolen from us (there).鈥�

As of Friday, several city shelters were near or over capacity, according to a . There are a total of 1,284 beds in shelters across Albuquerque, 147 of which were available. For scale, the city estimates there are 5,000 people experiencing homelessness in Albuquerque.

No one will be turned away if shelters reach capacity, city spokesperson Staci Drangmeister said. The city will add emergency beds to Gateway West and Center if needed, she said, and in an extreme situation, the city is prepared to open up community centers to those in need.

鈥淭here really is an underlying commitment to anyone that says 鈥� either when we鈥檙e asking them or they鈥檙e reaching out to us 鈥� 鈥業 want to get inside and get into a warm place,鈥欌�� Drangmeister said. 鈥淭he answer from the city is, 鈥榊es, we鈥檒l help you get there.鈥欌��

Albuquerque Community Safety offers rides to city shelters, even late at night, to anyone who calls (505) 418-6178, or an emergency number, looking for a place to escape the cold. Since ACS began its emergency overnight transportation service in November, which runs from 8 p.m. to 7 a.m., it has driven 1,599 people to city shelters.

On Friday morning, people lined up for hot beverages and sandwiches at Francis House Catholic Worker in the International District. Volunteer Jackie Garfield sorted donations of shoes and warm clothing. Despite the available resources, Garfield said, the fact that people are avoiding shelters speaks to a greater dysfunction in the shelter system.

鈥淕ateway is around the corner and yet everyone鈥檚 here,鈥� Garfield said. 鈥淪omething鈥檚 wrong. Something鈥檚 very wrong.鈥�
