488 FNUS55 KABQ 292036 FWFABQ Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico National Weather Service Albuquerque NM 236 PM MDT Mon Jun 29 2026 ...RED FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM MDT THIS EVENING DUE TO STRONG WINDS AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY FOR THE NORTHEAST PLAINS AND NORTHEAST HIGHLANDS... ...FIRE WEATHER WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING DUE TO STRONG WINDS AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY FOR THE NORTHEAST PLAINS, NORTHEAST HIGHLANDS, AND MUCH OF WESTERN NEW MEXICO... .DISCUSSION... Critical conditions will focus over northeast New Mexico today, with elevated fire weather elsewhere. Moisture will push into eastern New Mexico Tuesday, increasing moisture and generating isolated to scattered showers and storms. Dry storms may occur in central and northern New Mexico on the fringes of this moisture, creating gusty and erratic outflow winds and potentially starting new fires. Widespread near critical to locally critical conditions will occur across much of western New Mexico Tuesday afternoon, with winds the limiting factor. Winds trend weaker mid to late week, but humidity will also trend lower. Several hours of single digit relative humidity are likely across the northwest each day Wednesday through Saturday. ................................................................ Experimental Max RFTI, Ventilation category, mixing height and transport winds for each Fire Weather Zone are based on the following points. Note: Maximum transport winds may not occur at the same time as maximum mixing heights.
