Critical fire weather conditions are expected below significant snowpack this afternoon through early evening in a corridor from northwest to southeast NM. Please avoid outdoor burning today!
Warmer temperatures than last night's readings, except across northern and western valley areas as inversions develop. While winds will be decreasing early evening, breezes remain along the east slopes of the central mountain chain.
Winds will strengthen again Thursday, and it will continue to be warm and very dry resulting in another round of critical fire weather conditions over central and western areas.
Temperatures will be near to above average through the weekend, then a cold front arrives early Monday which will cool temperatures across the eastern plains.
