Winds increase across the region today, especially for westernmost portions of our area. A High Wind Warning is in effect from 1pm CDT to 1am CDT Wednesday for the Guadalupe and Delaware Mountains. A Wind Advisory is in effect for locations in Eddy County southward towards the Davis Mountains and Big Bend for the same time period.

Very windy conditions and minimum afternoon humidities less than 30% will create an elevated fire danger today from southeastern New Mexico and the western Permian Basin to the Big Bend. Use caution with outdoor flames today.

There will be a chance for showers and thunderstorms with the highest chances in the eastern counties, and rain chances decrease out west.
