Northwesterly flow is expected to strengthen across New Mexico on Thursday, as a lee cyclone develops in the southern High Plains. Sustained winds of 15 to 20 mph are expected with relative humidity in the single digits. Deterministic guidance varies on how widespread any critical wind speeds will be. This leads to low confidence in including a Critical area with this outlook, but will be monitored for future outlook updates. For now, Elevated to locally Critical fire weather conditions are expected on Thursday. ..Thornton.. 05/01/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
