OF EASTERN NEW MEXICO DUE TO STRONG WINDS AND LOW HUMIDITY
VALUES...

...FIRE WEATHER WATCH IN EFFECT SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EARLY

.DISCUSSION...

Breezy southwest winds will continue to result in a few hours of
near critical to locally critical fire weather conditions this
afternoon across parts of east central New Mexico. Stronger west
winds and minimum relative humidity values below 15 percent on Friday
will result in a greater coverage of critical fire weather
conditions across eastern New Mexico during the afternoon and early
evening hours. Elevated fire weather condtions will exist across the
middle and lower Rio Grande Valley. Similar conditions are expected
Saturday, except winds will be out of the southwest. Winds increase
and peak on Sunday along with slightly higher minimum relative
humidity values. Near critical to critical fire weather conditions
will exist across central and eastern New Mexico once again.
Precipitation moves into western New Mexico Sunday spreading into
central New Mexico Sunday night into Monday. Precipitation lingers
mainly across central areas Tuesday with drier weather thereafter.
