321 FNUS55 KABQ 161936 FWFABQ Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico National Weather Service Albuquerque NM 136 PM MDT Thu May 16 2024 .DISCUSSION... Good chances for wetting storms will continue through this evening across eastern and portions of central NM as a disturbance continues to move east across the area. A warming and drying trend is forecast to begin Friday under the influence of a high pressure aloft. Hot, dry and unstable conditions will gradually spread east over the area through the weekend. High pressure will move east and be replaced by increasing westerly flow Sunday, with the potential for critical fire weather conditions across eastern NM. However, recent and ongoing rain will likely enhance greenup. The bigger fire weather concern will come Monday with stronger southwest winds developing ahead of an approaching disturbance. Critical conditions will be more widespread Monday and fuels across western NM may be receptive to ignitions. Warm, dry and breezy conditions will prevail Tuesday and Wednesday but not as windy as Monday. Winds will crank back up Thursday in advance of another disturbance, with critical fire weather potential returning.
