309 FNUS55 KABQ 011853 FWFABQ Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico National Weather Service Albuquerque NM 1253 PM MDT Mon Sep 1 2025 .DISCUSSION... Critical fire weather conditions are not expected through the next seven days. Scattered showers and storms will continue to favor the high terrain of the southwest and northern mountains each of the next few days, with small hail and gusty outflow winds to 50 mph the main concerns. Temperatures trend higher and humidities trend lower through Thursday, but that trend will be reversed late week as moisture surges back into the region. Confidence is increasing for widespread wetting rainfall Friday through the weekend. ................................................................ Experimental Max RFTI, Ventilation category, mixing height and transport winds for each Fire Weather Zone are based on the following points. Note: Maximum transport winds may not occur at the same time as maximum mixing heights.
