999 FNUS55 KABQ 290647 FWFABQ Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico National Weather Service Albuquerque NM 1247 AM MDT Fri Aug 29 2025 .DISCUSSION... Critical fire weather conditions are not forecast through at least the next seven days as an active Monsoon thunderstorm pattern persists. Good chances for wetting storms will favor areas along and east of the central mountain chain through the weekend. Humidity and chances for wetting rain will trend up for much of western New Mexico next week as moisture advances further north and west across the state. Humidity recovery will generally be good to excellent through much of 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.
