Concern for rapid fire spread returns Sunday, Wednesday and Thursday across portions of eastern NM (and potentially northwest NM Wednesday) due to strong winds and low humidity.
Higher mid level moisture combined with much drier low levels will result in isolated to scattered virga and dry thunderstorms Monday. Main hazards will be erratic wind gusts of up to 50 mph, patchy blowing dust, and dry lightning strikes which could result in future fire starts.
