Moderate mid-level flow will remain across the Southwest on Tuesday with single-digit relative humidity across New Mexico. As deep mixing develops during the afternoon, some of this stronger flow will mix to the surface. In addition, a secondary lee cyclone is expected to develop in the TX/OK Panhandle vicinity. This will also aid in stronger surface winds. 15 to 25 mph sustained surface winds are expected across much of New Mexico. Locally critical conditions are probable and a Critical delineation may be needed at a later time, but for now, it is unclear where within the broader Elevated area, the greater threat may be. ..Bentley.. 05/20/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
