On Monday, the upper level high will re-center over the NM/CO border north of the burn site. This will result in warmer temperatures than on Sunday across the area. Additionally, some modest moisture may result in isolated showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon and early evening. These storms will produce little rainfall, but confidence is high that if these storms materialize, they will produce gusty and erratic outflows, potentially over 40 mph. Any storm that develops will diminish during the early evening hours. A similar story is in store for Tuesday, though chances for wetting precipitation are slightly higher and the upper high will strengthen further. Thus, another hot day with gusty winds the primary concern from any thunderstorms. .MONDAY... Sky/weather.........Mostly sunny becoming mostly cloudy in the afternoon.
