607 FNUS55 KABQ 291929 FWFABQ Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico National Weather Service Albuquerque NM 129 PM MDT Fri Aug 29 2025 .DISCUSSION... No critical fire weather conditions are expected for the next several days. Daily rounds of thunderstorms will leave good wetting footprints across areas east of the Continental Divide. Localized flash flooding may occur, mainly across eastern New Mexico and across and downstream of burn scars. Humidity recoveries generally remain good to excellent for the period. ................................................................ 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.
