...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

Locally elevated winds/RH are already developing in portions of
southeast New Mexico, and elevated to perhaps locally critical
winds/RH are likely during the afternoon in portions of southeast
New Mexico and west Texas. However, given the marginal fuels
conditions, no areas are necessary, and the forecast remains on
track.

...Synopsis...
A strong shortwave trough will move across the northern Great Plains
today within a northwesterly flow regime aloft.  In response at the
surface, a low pressure system will track from southern Saskatchewan
toward the Great Lakes, with a pressure trough extending southward
through western Texas.  To the west of this surface trough, dry and
breezy conditions will prevail within a downslope-flow regime across
portions of western Texas and southeastern New Mexico. While
localized elevated meteorological conditions are possible across
this region, fuel indices are generally not supportive of large
wildfires, precluding the need for fire-weather highlights.
