Red Flag Warning
URGENT - FIRE WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Albuquerque NM
316 PM MDT Fri Mar 28 2025
...RED FLAG WARNING FROM 12 TO 8 PM MDT SATURDAY EAST OF THE
SANGRE DE CRISTO MOUNTAINS, ALONG AND EAST OF THE SANDIA AND
MANZANO MOUNTAINS, AND ACROSS WEST CENTRAL BASIN AND RANGE DUE TO
GUSTY WINDS AND LOW HUMIDITY VALUES...
...FIRE WEATHER WATCH FROM 1 TO 7 PM MDT SUNDAY FOR THE CENTRAL
HIGHLANDS DUE TO STRONG WIND AND LOW HUMIDITY...
.A disturbance crossing the central Rockies will strengthen the
flow aloft over New Mexico on Saturday, while a potent surface
trough develops in the lee of the southern Rockies. As a result,
southwest wind gusts are forecast to peak around 35 to 45 mph on
Saturday afternoon with the strongest gusts along I-40 from
Clines Corners to the Texas border and across far west central NM,
including Gallup. These winds combined with minimum relative
humidity values in the upper single digits to low teens and
extremely dry fuels will result in rapid fire spread. In the wake
of the disturbance, wind speeds will weaken briefly Saturday
night, then strengthen again across the Central Highlands on
Sunday, where rapid fire spread is once again possible.
