Valid 181200Z - 191200Z

...Update...
No significant changes were made to the ongoing forecast. Please see
the previous discussion below for details. A small Elevated area was
considered for the Mohave Valley of NV and CA for the morning hours
Tuesday, when northerly sustained winds are expected to exceed 20
mph. However, the duration of RH less than 15-20 percent should only
overlap these higher wind speeds for 1-2 hours.

...Synopsis...
A trough will lift northward across the Northern Rockies into the
northern Plains on Tuesday. Heights will rise across the
southwestern US with weakening southwest gradients and lighter winds
returning. Areas of dry southwesterly flow will linger across
portions of central/eastern New Mexico. In this region, afternoon
relative humidity reductions to 10-15 percent will overlap winds
around 15 mph for a period of Elevated fire weather Tuesday
afternoon. Localized breezes and Elevated fire weather concerns may
extend further southwest into western New Mexico and southern
Arizona.
