000 FNUS55 KABQ 161139 FWFABQ Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico National Weather Service Albuquerque NM 439 AM MST Sun Feb 16 2020 .DISCUSSION... Today`s high temperatures will climb some 5 to 10 degrees above normal, and relative humidity will drop considerably. A few locations within central valleys and the eastern plains will observe minimum humidity of 15 to 20 percent in the afternoon hours. Strong winds are also forecast this afternoon along and east of the central mountain chain where gusts will occasionally approach 35 to 45 mph. High temperatures will run a couple degrees cooler on Monday, but still remain above average over most of the forecast area with breezy to windy conditions redeveloping along and east of the central mountain chain. A couple of cold fronts will then usher cooler temperatures into eastern and eventually central New Mexico Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. This cooler air will alleviate critical fire weather concerns.
