Hey Las Cruces, its times like this that we can be glad that Las Cruces isn’t affected much by hurricanes and tornadoes but our hearts go out to those that were devastated by Hurricane Helene. Praying they get some assistance quickly especially in those hard hit areas of North Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia.
