337 AM MDT Sun Mar 30 2025
...MARGINALLY CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR SOUTHERN NEW
MEXICO AND WEST TEXAS ON SUNDAY...
...CRITICAL TO NEAR EXTREME FIRE CONDITIONS FOR SOUTHERN NEW
MEXICO AND WEST TEXAS ON TUESDAY...
.Breezy west flow continues today with a lee surface low over
eastern New Mexico. Winds will be slightly weaker than Saturday,
but still likely to reach critical thresholds and promote rapid
fire spread. The winds, in combination with very low humidity and
critically dry fuels, will lead to critical fire weather
conditions for several hours Sunday afternoon.
Another system will approach the area on Tuesday, which will bring
strong winds with 20-foot gusts as high as 50 MPH. Lowland RH
values will drop well into the teens with values of 15 to 25
percent in the mountains. Nevertheless, given the dry fuels, the
fire danger will remain very high in the Lincoln and Capitan
National Forests and is included within the Fire Weather Watch.

of New Mexico, widespread areas of blowing dust will develop
within the gusty winds. This will increase the risk of low
