Brief Description Fire Weather Watch
Detailed Description CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS EXPECTED SUNDAY FOR SOUTHWEST NEW MEXICO AND FAR WEST TEXAS. .Strong southwest flow aloft crossing the Southern Rockies will induce low surface pressure over the southern High Plains on Sunday. Subsequent tightening of the surface pressure gradient will increase winds area wide. Strongest winds are forecast to occur Sunday and Monday afternoons, with gusty west winds midday. Very dry air remains in place while winds increase, creating critical fire danger for much of southern New Mexico and far west Texas. Fuel dryness is near normal for mid-May, but weather conditions will be favorable for rapid drying of fine fuels and increasing ERCs back above seasonal normals through the weekend. * AFFECTED AREA. In Texas, Fire Weather Zone 055 El Paso County, Fire Weather Zone 056 Hudspeth County. In New Mexico, Fire Weather Zone 110 Southwest Mountains/Gila NF/Apache NF/GLZ, Fire Weather Zone 111 Southwest Deserts and Lowlands/Las Cruces BLM/GLZ, Fire Weather Zone 112 South Central Lowlands and Southern Rio Grande Valley/BLM/GLZ and Fire Weather Zone 113 Capitan and Sacramento Mountains/Lincoln NF/LNZ. * WINDS. West-southwest 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 45 mph. * RELATIVE HUMIDITY. 6 to 11 percent. * EXPERIMENTAL RFTI. 5 to 7 or Critical to Extreme. * IMPACTS. Any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.
