The winter conditions led to the closure of highway sections such as Janos–Agua Prieta, from kilometer 60 toward Gallardo; Guachochi–Creel; and Parral–El Vergel.
On the Basaseachi–Cajurichi and Las Estrellas–San Juanito routes, near Huevachi, only 4×4 vehicles are permitted.

In Ciudad Juárez, flooding was reported on some streets and avenues, causing traffic disruptions.
Civil Protection warned that these conditions increase the risk of landslides and damage to rural roads, and recommended avoiding unnecessary travel and following traffic and safety instructions.
For this Sunday, the forecast indicates that the Arctic air mass associated with cold front number 30 will maintain very cold to intensely cold conditions, mainly in the mountainous region, in addition to wind gusts that could exceed 65 km/h in much of the state.
High temperatures this Sunday will range between 5 and 20 °C, while lows of up to -9 °C are expected on Monday, January 26, in mountain municipalities such as Temósachic and El Vergel.
The State Government reiterated its call for the public to stay informed through official channels and follow the recommendations of Civil Protection authorities given the persistence of this winter weather system.
