Some thunderstorms will turn severe over eastern areas this evening with a risk of large hail, damaging winds, and locally heavy rainfall that could produce flash flooding. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue over eastern areas into the late night hours, when severe storms should become more isolated in coverage.
Some thunderstorms over eastern areas will be capable of producing large hail, damaging winds, and a quick 2 inches of rainfall with locally higher amounts. The greatest risk of severe thunderstorms will be during the evening, but scattered thunderstorms are expected to continue over eastern areas through the late night hours.
As high temperatures climb well into the 90s over western areas on Sunday afternoon, very low humidities and strong winds will create critical fire weather conditions. The most critical conditions will occur from west central to northwest areas, where winds will blow the strongest.
East canyon winds will develop in Albuquerque and Santa Fe shortly after sunset Sunday evening, then strengthen through the night with the strongest gusts during the early-to-mid-morning hours Monday. East canyon winds will then gradually weaken in the central valley, but it is forecast to linger into Monday night.
