FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR NEW MEXICO
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EL PASO TX/SANTA TERESA NM
124 PM MDT SAT MAY 25 2013
.DISCUSSION...
A SHALLOW LAYER OF MOIST UNSTABLE AIR WILL ALLOW THE CHANCE FOR
ANOTHER ROUND OF AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND
EAST OF A LINE FROM WESTERN HUDSPETH COUNTY TO NORTHEASTERN OTERO
COUNTY. THAT LAYER OF MOIST AIR WILL REMAIN IN PLACE OVERNIGHT
THEN SLOWLY ERODE BACK TO THE EAST DURING THE DAY SUNDAY. A FEW OF
THE STORMS THAT DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING COULD PRODUCE
HAIL AND STRONG WINDS ALONG WITH HEAVY DOWNPOURS. DRY LIGHTNING IS
ALSO A POSSIBILITY. CONTINUED WARM AND DRY ACROSS THE REST OF THE
AREA WITH SLIGTLY BREEZY SOUTHWEST WINDS. THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS WILL
BE VERY WARM AND DRY AS THE MOIST AIR SHIFTS EAST AND OUT OF OUR
AREA. HOWEVER...A STRONG UPPER LEVEL TROUGH...COMBINED WITH A SURFACE
LOW PRESSURE TO THE EAST...MAY GENERATE BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS
MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY WITH CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS
POSSIBLE EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

.DISCUSSION...
SOUTHEAST LOW LEVEL WINDS AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM THUNDERSTORMS
HAVE PUSHED MOIST UNSTABLE AIR ACROSS FAR WEST TEXAS AND INTO AREAS
ALONG AND EAST OF THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY. THAT LAYER OF MOIST AIR IS
VERY SHALLOW AND WILL ERODE BACK TO THE EAST LATER THIS MORNING AND
THIS AFTERNOON AS UPPER LEVEL WINDS MIX DOWN TO THE SURFACE. THERE
IS STILL A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING ACROSS HUDSPETH AND EASTERN OTERO COUNTY. A FEW STORMS COULD
PRODUCE HAIL...STRONG WINDS AND HEAVY DOWNPOURS. DRY LIGHTNING IS
ALSO POSSIBLE OVER HUDSPETH AND OTERO COUNTIES THIS AFTERNOON. THE
REST OF THE AREA WILL BE WARM AND DRY TODAY WITH SOUTHWEST WINDS.
WEST TO SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL BRING DRY AND WARM WEATHER TO ALL AREAS
TOMORROW THROUGH THURSDAY. IN ADDITION...AN UNSEASONABLY STRONG UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH...COMBINED WITH A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE TO THE EAST...MAY
GENERATE BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY. CRITICAL
FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

115 PM MDT FRI MAY 24 2013
.DISCUSSION...
...CRITICAL CONDITIONS POSSIBLE MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...
A COUPLE OF MORE DAYS WITH ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ACROSS FAR EASTERN AREAS. THERE IS THE
POTENTIAL FOR SOME DRY LIGHTNING MAINLY OVER EL PASO AND WESTERN
OTERO COUNTIES WHERE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL NOT BE AS DEEP. THE
MOISTURE WILL MOVE OUT OF THE AREA BY SUNDAY WITH HOT AND DRY
CONDITIONS LIKELY THROUGH AT LEAST MIDWEEK AS DEEP SOUTHWEST FLOW
SETS UP OVER THE REGION. EXPECT MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITIES TO FALL
INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS ONCE AGAIN AND WINDS WILL BE BREEZY BUT
LIKELY BELOW CRITICAL CRITERIA SUNDAY AND POSSIBLY MONDAY. THE BEST
CHANCE FOR WIDESPREAD CRITICAL CONDITIONS TO DEVELOP STILL LOOKS TO
BE TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE BACK INTO THE
90S FOR MOST OF NEXT WEEK AS WELL.

.DISCUSSION...
...DRY LIGHTNING RISK FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...
...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER PERIOD SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...
A WARM PERIOD EXPECTED FOR THE NEXT WEEK WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES
GENERALLY IN THE LOWER TO MID 90S AS A PERSISTENT SOUTHWEST FLOW
SETS UP OVER THE REGION. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE
TODAY OVER HUDSPETH COUNTY NORTH INTO THE SACS WHERE SOME DRY
LIGHTNING IS POSSIBLE. A DRYLINE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO FAR WEST
TEXAS AND INTO THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. THIS WILL
SET THE REGION UP FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE
EAST OF IT. SOME AREAS COULD SEE SOME DRY LIGHTNING NEAR THE EDGE OF
THE DRYLINE WHERE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL BE LESS. FURTHER EAST INTO
HUDSPETH COUNTY GENERALLY WET THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED.
THROUGH SATURDAY WINDS WILL GENERALLY REMAIN BELOW CRITICAL
LEVELS...BUT STARTING SUNDAY AND INTO NEXT WEEK WINDS WILL PICK UP
AS THE DRYLINE PUSHES EAST OUT OF THE AREA. WEST TO SOUTHWEST WINDS
WILL BE BREEZY EACH AFTERNOON WITH SOME AREAS SEEING CRITICAL
CONDITIONS ANYTIME BETWEEN SUNDAY AND WEDNESDAY. MINIMUM RELATIVE
HUMIDITIES WILL BE BACK INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS THROUGH THIS PERIOD
AS WELL.
