What the National Weather Service wrote

The Santa Fe Municipal Airport measured a wind gust of 58 mph.

The wider storm

An upper low continued to spin across the northern Rockies and northern Great Plains during the day on May 7th. Deep daytime mixing across New Mexico allowed stronger winds at the base of the upper low to mix down to the surface during the afternoon and early evening hours resulting in several high wind gusts across the northern mountains and surrounding highlands. Winds quickly tapered off after sunset.
