Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico
National Weather Service Albuquerque NM
133 PM MDT Wed May 22 2024

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 12PM THROUGH 8PM MDT THURSDAY
FOR THE UPPER RIO GRANDE VALLEY AND LOWER CHAMA RIVER VALLEY AND
EASTERN NEW MEXICO DUE TO GUSTY WEST WINDS, EXTREMELY LOW HUMIDITY
AND AN UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE...

.DISCUSSION...
Warm, dry, breezy to windy and unstable conditions will prevail
through the weekend with bouts of critical fire weather conditions
focusing on Thursday and especially Saturday. A disturbance moving
east across the southern Rockies will steer stronger winds aloft
over the area Thursday and provide a deepening lee side trough,
bringing critical fire weather conditions to the upper RGV and much
of eastern NM. Winds will trend down in the wake of the departing
trough on Friday, but very dry and unstable conditions will persist.
A stronger trough will approach a little further south on Saturday,
bringing even stronger winds and more widespread critical fire
weather conditions. Critical fire weather conditions may persist on
Sunday, especially across eastern NM. Strengthening high pressure
from early to mid next week will bring much less wind.
