Turbulent Tucumcari year brings storms and new ventures
A severe storm parked over Tucumcari caused power outages and property damage including a roof tear from a Mesalands Dinosaur Museum storage building. Sept 8 saw Love's Appliance Sales & Service change ownership to Robert Marroquin, ending Ray and Norma Love's 50-year run. The 2020 census showed a slight population drop, with murals funded by a local art collective painted in September. The town faces insurance rating changes, new ambulance purchases, cannabis rules, and a string of education, safety, and development actions throughout the fall and into winter.
