157 FXUS64 KEPZ 011655 AFDEPZ Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service El Paso TX/Santa Teresa NM 1055 AM MDT Sat Nov 1 2025 ...New DISCUSSION, AVIATION, FIRE WEATHER... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 1055 AM MDT Sat Nov 1 2025 - Quiet weather pattern into early November with no precipitation in the forecast. - Above normal temperatures and generally light winds expected. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1055 AM MDT Sat Nov 1 2025 A weak cool front has pushed through much of the forecast area and high temps this afternoon will be about 2-10 degrees cooler than yesterday. This will not last long as an upper ridge builds in through Sunday and we start to see a gradual warmup going into next week. Surface and upper level winds shift around to the west by Tuesday allowing the warmer air to continue through the week with near record highs. Models and ensemble means continue to be in good agreement with this main synoptic pattern over the area into next weekend. NBM temps continue to be warm on overnight lows with very dry air in place, especially in the typical cold valleys. I also trended high temps up a little bit as we get into Tue-Fri as westerly surface winds should allow for almost full mixing, even with an early Nov sun angle. Record highs in El Paso are in the 84-87 range, think we will stay short of these, but a couple days could get within a degree or 2. No precip expected through the period. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1055 AM MDT Sat Nov 1 2025 P6SM SKC-FEW250 through the period. Winds will be under 10KTS and be south to southeast for areas east of the RGV and more variable to the west. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 1055 AM MDT Sat Nov 1 2025 Warm and dry conditions will be the norm across the area for the upcoming week. Temperatures will be slowly warming the next few days with some near record highs possible by midweek. Min RH`s will be falling into the teens, but the winds will remain well below critical thresholds. Vent rates will range from Poor to Good for the next several days with better rates further north. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
