MIDDLE RIO GRANDE VALLEY, THE SANDIA AND MANZANO MOUNTAINS, AND

.Strong winds and very low humidity will continue today and
Wednesday as an upper level trough passing north of New Mexico
steers the jetstream over the state. Updated forecasts indicate

Sandia and Manzano Mountains. A strong Pacific cold front moving
through the area Wednesday will shift winds from the southwest to
west then northwest as the day progresses. Cooler temperatures
will also arrive behind the front however the coverage of single
digit humidity will actually be greater. Winds will taper off
Wednesday evening to alleviate critical fire weather.
