Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico
National Weather Service Albuquerque NM
226 PM MDT Fri May 17 2024

.DISCUSSION...
A warming and drying trend is underway as high pressure moves over
the area through Saturday. High pressure will be replaced with
increasing westerlies Sunday, with hot, dry and unstable conditions
overtaking the area. Critical fire weather conditions are forecast
across much of eastern NM on Sunday, but no warnings are expected at
this time due to recent rainfall and greenup. Stronger winds are
forecast Monday ahead of an approaching disturbance. Widespread
critical fire weather conditions are forecast Monday, but the main
area of concern will be west of the central mountain chain where
fuels are likely more receptive to ignitions and large fire growth.
Strong winds will continue Tuesday, which is looking like another
fairly widespread critical fire weather day. Minimum humidity will
dip into the single digits for several hours across portions of the
area each day next week, especially across southern areas. Hot, dry
and unstable conditions with the potential for fire growth will
persist from mid to late next week.
