A few gusty showers may enhance wind gusts during the early afternoon as well. Fuels are at near average dryness for this time of year, but the rapid drying of fine fuels such as grasses is likely given the low humidity.

Updated at 133 AM MDT Wed May 13 2026 - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations through Saturday across the lower elevations of central and eastern NM due to near-record heat. - Localized erratic wind gust to 50 mph or greater from isolated showers and storms, with little to no rainfall, late Wednesday across much of western and northern New Mexico then in far eastern New Mexico on Thursday. - Moderate chance (50-60%) of critical fire weather conditions in northern and eastern New Mexico Thursday, with a high chance (60-80%) on Sunday due to strengthening winds. && .SHORT TERM... (Today through Thursday) Issued at 133 AM MDT Wed May 13 2026 Clear skies prevail again tonight underneath a ridge that has amplified all the way into central Canada. A long plume of sub- tropical moisture that extends thousands of kilometers to the southwest is pushing into Southern AZ tonight and will move northward into the southern Rockies this afternoon. For May, this moisture is quite impressive, with PWATs above the 90th percentile over the Continental Divide. As a result, scattered to even widespread virga showers will develop along and west of the central mtn chain this afternoon, with showers moving off to the northeast through the day. While there will be quite a few showers out there, most of the rain will not reach the ground given the dry and deep boundary layer. Evaporative cooling induced by rain falling into this layer will likely generate a few dry microbursts with the potential to produce wind gusts up to around 50 mph. Instability is modest, limited by the exiting ridge so storms will be far and few between. The best chance for storms is actually along the east slopes of the Sangre de Cristo mtns where a few hi-res models are showing pockets of enhance instability (CAPE ~300 J/kg). With sunset not until around 8PM this time of year, showers will continue into the evening hours, eventually decaying with the loss of daytime heating. The sub-tropical moisture plume over western NM will get tilted Wednesday night into Thursday in response increasing westerly flow north of the sub-tropical jet. There should be just enough moisture lingering across eastern NM for a few high-based showers in the early afternoon hours before dry westerly flow takes over later in the day. Once again, dry microbursts will be a concern and the increasing westerly winds should help to enhance gusts as well. Widespread breezy conditions are likely around the region, with the strongest wind gusts (25 to 35 mph) in eastern NM. && .LONG TERM... (Thursday night through Tuesday) Issued at 133 AM MDT Wed May 13 2026 Relatively quiet weather will prevail Friday and Saturday, with quasi-zonal flow over New Mexico in between the sub-tropical and polar jet streams. Temperatures will be above average both days, with the largest departures from normal in the east, where it will be around 15 degrees above average. The synoptic pattern looks to become more active on Sunday as a longwave trough moves into The Great Basin. Model agreement has increased over the past 24 hours, although there is still some disagreement with regard to the depth of this approaching trough. Regardless, it will put dry southwesterly flow over New Mexico and forecast wind speeds have recently trended stronger. It will also be very dry and warm, setting the stage for a day with widespread high fire danger. Monday will likely be similar to Sunday, although cooler as the base of the trough swings through the southern Rockies. Most models (~70%) show the jet stream pulling off to the north after this trough exits into the Plains, but a minority of models (~30%) are keeping the strong southwest to west flow around, which would keep the windy conditions around into the middle part of next week. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1112 PM MDT Tue May 12 2026 VFR conditions will continue to prevail through the TAF period. A weak backdoor cold front will surge south and westward tonight, creating a few breezes (10 to 15 kts) through the gaps of the central mtn chain. Scattered high-based showers and a few storms will develop around 18Z tomorrow in western and central NM, trekking northeast through the afternoon into the evening. Gusty and erratic winds will be a concern at most terminals, although any gusty winds will be very brief in nature. Prevailing winds will be from the south/southwest tomorrow, with a light breeze in most areas. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 133 AM MDT Wed May 13 2026 A S-N oriented sub-tropical moisture plume will set up over western NM today, sparking scattered virga showers and a few storms. Given the dry boundary layer, any storms that do develop will produce very little to no rainfall and therefore pose a threat to start new fires in receptive fuels. Dry microbursts will be the main concern with convection that develops, with localized wind gusts up to 50 mph a possibility in the western two thirds of the state. A few gusty showers may develop early Thursday afternoon in the eastern plains, but dry westerly flow will take over later in the afternoon, creating locally critical fire weather conditions in eastern NM. The likelihood of critical fire weather conditions has not changed much (still around 50-60%) so the Fire Weather Watch was not yet upgraded. Winds will likely weaken Friday and Saturday as New Mexico gets sandwiched in between the polar and sub-tropical jets. This will likely change on Sunday as a trough begins to deepen over The Great Basin. This will place New Mexico under dry southwest flow, with confidence increasing for potentially widespread critical fire weather conditions. The base of this trough will swing through the southern Rockies on Monday on what could be another critical fire weather day. Westerly flow will likely (~70% chance) weaken Tuesday and Wednesday next week, but there is a decent chance (~30%) that breezy to windy conditions will continue, keeping fire danger concerns high. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Record and near- record heat at the surface this afternoon correlates with the anomalously high pressure heights, with KABQ forecast to tie today's record high of 93 degrees. The upper level ridge is forecast to shift slowly east of NM on Wednesday, allowing moisture to increase from the southwest in the mid levels of the atmosphere. The extra bump in PWATs, coupled with daytime heating, will be sufficient to produce a crop of high-based convection across western and northern NM Wednesday afternoon that will favor strong/erratic wind gusts vs wetting (>0.10") rainfall. The 12Z NAM is advertising pockets of dCAPE reaching 2,000+J/kg west of the central mountain chain by 21Z Wednesday, which should be good for a few gusts to greater than 50mph. Dry convection will progress into northeast NM early Wednesday evening, bringing strong/erratic wind gusts from the I-25 corridor to near Capulin. Otherwise, Wednesday will be a hot one too, with well above average high temperatures and a minor to moderate heat risk for sensitive populations. && .LONG TERM... (Thursday through Monday) Issued at 1225 PM MDT Tue May 12 2026 An upper level trough/low racing east across the northern and central Rockies on Thursday will steer stronger westerlies over NM. Daytime heating will bring deep layer mixing of the atmosphere Thursday afternoon, resulting in breezy to locally windy conditions, especially across east central and northeast NM. Downslope warming on Thursday is forecast to boost Roswell's high temperature to 100 degrees. Winds will trend down Friday, but the heat will continue with well above average temperatures. Winds aloft will back and increase this weekend in advance of an upstream trough/low moving southeast from over the Great Basin. The result will be increasingly windy conditions that will be most notable on Sunday as a lee side trough deepens to between 985-989mb across eastern CO. At this time, there is a moderate chance (40-60%) of wind speeds exceeding advisory threshold on Sunday across much of the area. The upper level trough is forecast to move east through the central/southern Rockies on Monday, bringing strong westerly winds to much of our area. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1112 PM MDT Tue May 12 2026 VFR conditions will continue to prevail through the TAF period. A weak backdoor cold front will surge south and westward tonight, creating a few breezes (10 to 15 kts) through the gaps of the central mtn chain. Scattered high-based showers and a few storms will develop around 18Z tomorrow in western and central NM, trekking northeast through the afternoon into the evening. Gusty and erratic winds will be a concern at most terminals, although any gusty winds will be very brief in nature. Prevailing winds will be from the south/southwest tomorrow, with a light breeze in most areas. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 1225 PM MDT Tue May 12 2026 An upper high is bringing hot and dry conditions today, but will move east on Wednesday and allow moisture to move northeast into the area, resulting in a round of virga showers and dry storms during the afternoon and evening hours. Lightning activity will be fairly limited Wednesday, but any ignitions could grow on Thursday given stronger westerly winds and very dry conditions forecast. Many hours of single digit humidity are forecast Thursday across the lower elevations. Deep layer mixing of the atmosphere on Thursday will bring breezy to locally windy conditions by afternoon with large sustained/gust spreads. In addition, ERCs are forecast to increase this week and should be supportive of fire spread by Thursday. That said, a Fire Weather Watch has been hoisted for much of eastern NM for Thursday afternoon/evening. Winds decrease Friday, but very dry conditions persist. Backing and strengthening winds aloft this weekend ahead of an approaching upper level trough/low will bring back the threat for critical fire weather conditions over a larger area on Sunday. The trough is forecast to move east through the central/southern Rockies on Monday, bringing strong westerly wind to NM and potentially more critical fire weather conditions. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Record and near- record heat at the surface this afternoon correlates with the anomalously high pressure heights, with KABQ forecast to tie today's record high of 93 degrees. The upper level ridge is forecast to shift slowly east of NM on Wednesday, allowing moisture to increase from the southwest in the mid levels of the atmosphere. The extra bump in PWATs, coupled with daytime heating, will be sufficient to produce a crop of high-based convection across western and northern NM Wednesday afternoon that will favor strong/erratic wind gusts vs wetting (>0.10") rainfall. The 12Z NAM is advertising pockets of dCAPE reaching 2,000+J/kg west of the central mountain chain by 21Z Wednesday, which should be good for a few gusts to greater than 50mph. Dry convection will progress into northeast NM early Wednesday evening, bringing strong/erratic wind gusts from the I-25 corridor to near Capulin. Otherwise, Wednesday will be a hot one too, with well above average high temperatures and a minor to moderate heat risk for sensitive populations. && .LONG TERM... (Thursday through Monday) Issued at 1225 PM MDT Tue May 12 2026 An upper level trough/low racing east across the northern and central Rockies on Thursday will steer stronger westerlies over NM. Daytime heating will bring deep layer mixing of the atmosphere Thursday afternoon, resulting in breezy to locally windy conditions, especially across east central and northeast NM. Downslope warming on Thursday is forecast to boost Roswell's high temperature to 100 degrees. Winds will trend down Friday, but the heat will continue with well above average temperatures. Winds aloft will back and increase this weekend in advance of an upstream trough/low moving southeast from over the Great Basin. The result will be increasingly windy conditions that will be most notable on Sunday as a lee side trough deepens to between 985-989mb across eastern CO. At this time, there is a moderate chance (40-60%) of wind speeds exceeding advisory threshold on Sunday across much of the area. The upper level trough is forecast to move east through the central/southern Rockies on Monday, bringing strong westerly winds to much of our area. && .AVIATION...

Lightning activity will be fairly limited Wednesday, but any ignitions could grow on Thursday given stronger westerly winds and very dry conditions forecast. Many hours of single digit humidity are forecast Thursday across the lower elevations. Deep layer mixing of the atmosphere on Thursday will bring breezy to locally windy conditions by afternoon with large sustained/gust spreads. In addition, ERCs are forecast to increase this week and should be supportive of fire spread by Thursday. That said, a Fire Weather Watch has been hoisted for much of eastern NM for Thursday afternoon/evening. Winds decrease Friday, but very dry conditions persist. Backing and strengthening winds aloft this weekend ahead of an approaching upper level trough/low will bring back the threat for critical fire weather conditions over a larger area on Sunday. The trough is forecast to move east through the central/southern Rockies on Monday, bringing strong westerly wind to NM and potentially more critical fire weather conditions. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 1109 AM MDT Tue May 12 2026 - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday and Wednesday across the lower elevations of central and eastern NM due to near-record heat. - Localized strong and erratic wind gusts from isolated showers and storms, with little to no rainfall, late Wednesday across much of western and northern New Mexico. - Low to moderate chance (30-50%) of critical fire weather conditions in northern and eastern New Mexico Thursday. Low chance (20-30%) on Sunday and Monday across much of the area. && .SHORT TERM... (Today through Wednesday) Issued at 110 AM MDT Tue May 12 2026 Clear skies prevail around New Mexico tonight thanks to a ridge that is currently centered over southwest NM. The low humidity combined with clear skies and light winds will allow strong valley inversions to develop so temps in valley floors will likely drop off within the next few hours. The cool morning will be short-lived as temps rapidly climb today. Highs will be warmer than the past several days, with 80s and 90s everywhere except the high mountains. A few locations could even break records, including at Santa Fe and Farmington where highs of 89F and 91F are forecast, respectively. Some moisture will try to sneak up under the ridge into southwest NM in the afternoon, which could spark a couple of high based virga showers in the southwest mountains. Tuesday night will be another clear and calm night around the region. Moisture will quietly be sneaking up from the south, with the main plume of moisture focusing over western NM where PWATs will rise up to as much as 250% of normal per the GEFS mean. Hi-res models are showing a quite extensive coverage of virga showers in the western two-thirds of the state during the afternoon hours of Wednesday. There should be just enough instability for a few strikes of lightning as well. Given 700 mb dewpoint depressions in excess of 25C and sfc humidities below 20%, wetting rain is very unlikely and any high based showers and storms are more likely to produce strong outflow wind gusts than rain. Given the coverage, a series of virga showers could produce pockets of blowing dust near dust sources. The increase cloud coverage will keep temps down a degree or two in most areas, but it will still be a hot day with moderate heat risk along the Rio Grande Valley from Albuquerque southward and in southeastern NM. && .LONG TERM... (Wednesday night through Monday) Issued at 110 AM MDT Tue May 12 2026 The ridge over the southern Rockies will break down late week, being replaced by quasi-zonal flow, with the subtropical jet over northern Mexico and the polar jet over the northern Rockies. Winds will trend slightly stronger, but with the main sub-tropcial jet to the south, 700 mb winds will only be around 20-30 kts. It will be enough to create southwest to west breezes around the region and the downsloping breeze will make it quite toasty in the eastern plains, with 90s all the way up in Clayton. The moisture plume from the south will be tilted Thursday in response to the sub-tropical jet and this will allow a drier airmass to push in from the west. There could be a few gusty showers in far eastern NM on the periphery of this moisture, but it will generally be much drier. The pattern remains largely unchanged Friday and Saturday with breezy and seasonably warm conditons continuing. There is evidence that the pattern will change Sunday into the early part of next week as a longwave trough develops over the western CONUS. This time of year, this is often an early indicator of a fire weather pattern with dry southwest flow and strong winds over New Mexico, but that may not be the case this time around since there is already some moisture moving up from the south and that could be enough to prevent significant drying. Furthermore, some models are not showing a significant longwave trough and instead keep weaker quasi-zonal flow overhead. Overall, ensemble data is very mixed and uncertainty in the synoptic pattern remains high in the 7-10 day range. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1109 AM MDT Tue May 12 2026 VFR conditions prevail and are forecast to persist through the TAF period. Typical late afternoon gustiness is expected, but otherwise winds will be light. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 110 AM MDT Tue May 12 2026 Today will be very dry and warm with near record highs and afternoon humidities in the single digits almost everywhere outside of the high mountains. The ridge centered over New Mexico today will begin to break down on Wednesday, allowing moisture to sneak up from the south. This will create scattered to even widespread virga showers in the western two-thirds of the state and pockets of instability could result in a few dry lightning strikes in the western and northern high terrain. A few gusty showers could develop in far eastern NM on Thursday afternoon, but most areas will be clear as a drier airmass pushes in from the west. West winds will trend stronger as this dry airmass pushes in so there is still a low to moderate chance of critical fire weather conditions on Thursday, with the highest likelihood in the Central and Northeast Highlands where it will be windiest. Winds trend weaker on Friday, but will likely trend up again slightly over the weekend, creating widespread elevated to near critical fire weather conditions. Sunday has trended drier as well as models are delaying the uptick in moisture. There are low chances of high based showers and a few storms early next week in the eastern half of the state. Model uncertainty remains high in the 7- 10 day range. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 110 AM MDT Tue May 12 2026 - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday and Wednesday across the lower elevations of central and eastern NM due to near-record heat. - Localized strong and erratic wind gusts from isolated showers and storms, with little to no rainfall, late Wednesday across much of western and northern New Mexico. - Low to moderate chance (30-50%) of critical fire weather conditions in northern and eastern New Mexico Thursday. Low chance (20-30%) on Sunday and Monday across much of the area. && .SHORT TERM... (Today through Wednesday) Issued at 110 AM MDT Tue May 12 2026 Clear skies prevail around New Mexico tonight thanks to a ridge that is currently centered over southwest NM. The low humidity combined with clear skies and light winds will allow strong valley inversions to develop so temps in valley floors will likely drop off within the next few hours. The cool morning will be short-lived as temps rapidly climb today. Highs will be warmer than the past several days, with 80s and 90s everywhere except the high mountains. A few locations could even break records, including at Santa Fe and Farmington where highs of 89F and 91F are forecast, respectively. Some moisture will try to sneak up under the ridge into southwest NM in the afternoon, which could spark a couple of high based virga showers in the southwest mountains. Tuesday night will be another clear and calm night around the region. Moisture will quietly be sneaking up from the south, with the main plume of moisture focusing over western NM where PWATs will rise up to as much as 250% of normal per the GEFS mean. Hi-res models are showing a quite extensive coverage of virga showers in the western two-thirds of the state during the afternoon hours of Wednesday. There should be just enough instability for a few strikes of lightning as well. Given 700 mb dewpoint depressions in excess of 25C and sfc humidities below 20%, wetting rain is very unlikely and any high based showers and storms are more likely to produce strong outflow wind gusts than rain. Given the coverage, a series of virga showers could produce pockets of blowing dust near dust sources. The increase cloud coverage will keep temps down a degree or two in most areas, but it will still be a hot day with moderate heat risk along the Rio Grande Valley from Albuquerque southward and in southeastern NM. && .LONG TERM... (Wednesday night through Monday) Issued at 110 AM MDT Tue May 12 2026 The ridge over the southern Rockies will break down late week, being replaced by quasi-zonal flow, with the subtropical jet over northern Mexico and the polar jet over the northern Rockies. Winds will trend slightly stronger, but with the main sub-tropcial jet to the south, 700 mb winds will only be around 20-30 kts. It will be enough to create southwest to west breezes around the region and the downsloping breeze will make it quite toasty in the eastern plains, with 90s all the way up in Clayton. The moisture plume from the south will be tilted Thursday in response to the sub-tropical jet and this will allow a drier airmass to push in from the west. There could be a few gusty showers in far eastern NM on the periphery of this moisture, but it will generally be much drier. The pattern remains largely unchanged Friday and Saturday with breezy and seasonably warm conditons continuing. There is evidence that the pattern will change Sunday into the early part of next week as a longwave trough develops over the western CONUS. This time of year, this is often an early indicator of a fire weather pattern with dry southwest flow and strong winds over New Mexico, but that may not be the case this time around since there is already some moisture moving up from the south and that could be enough to prevent significant drying. Furthermore, some models are not showing a significant longwave trough and instead keep weaker quasi-zonal flow overhead. Overall, ensemble data is very mixed and uncertainty in the synoptic pattern remains high in the 7-10 day range. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1118 PM MDT Mon May 11 2026 VFR conditions will continue to prevail through the TAF period. Clear skies will prevail with the exception of sfc based cumulus in and around the high terrain during the afternoon hours. A few gusty showers may develop in the SW and South Central mtns between 18Z and 00Z, but coverage will be very limited. Winds will generally be light (<10 kts) as a ridge moves overhead. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 110 AM MDT Tue May 12 2026 Today will be very dry and warm with near record highs and afternoon humidities in the single digits almost everywhere outside of the high mountains. The ridge centered over New Mexico today will begin to break down on Wednesday, allowing moisture to sneak up from the south. This will create scattered to even widespread virga showers in the western two-thirds of the state and pockets of instability could result in a few dry lightning strikes in the western and northern high terrain. A few gusty showers could develop in far eastern NM on Thursday afternoon, but most areas will be clear as a drier airmass pushes in from the west. West winds will trend stronger as this dry airmass pushes in so there is still a low to moderate chance of critical fire weather conditions on Thursday, with the highest likelihood in the Central and Northeast Highlands where it will be windiest. Winds trend weaker on Friday, but will likely trend up again slightly over the weekend, creating widespread elevated to near critical fire weather conditions. Sunday has trended drier as well as models are delaying the uptick in moisture. There are low chances of high based showers and a few storms early next week in the eastern half of the state. Model uncertainty remains high in the 7- 10 day range. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 1118 PM MDT Mon May 11 2026 - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday and Wednesday across the lower elevations of central and eastern NM due to near-record heat. - Localized strong and erratic wind gusts from isolated showers and storms, with little to no rainfall, late Wednesday across much of western and northern New Mexico. - Low to moderate chance (30-50%) of critical fire weather conditions in northern and eastern New Mexico Thursday. Low chance (20-30%) on Sunday and Monday across much of the area. && .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Tuesday night) Issued at 1216 PM MDT Mon May 11 2026 A warming and drying trend will continue through Tuesday as an upper high over AZ strengthens to near 591dam at 500mb and progresses east over NM. A few late day high-based showers are possible over the southern high terrain through Tuesday, favoring strong/erratic wind gusts over measurable rainfall. Temperatures on Tuesday are forecast to soar well above average areawide to near daily records at a number of locales. Albuquerque is forecast to hit a high of 91 degrees Tuesday and Roswell 98 degrees, both 2 degrees shy of their daily records. A weak cold front is forecast to back southwest through northeast NM and into central NM Tuesday night, bringing a wind shift but no notable change to temperatures. && .LONG TERM... (Wednesday through Sunday) Issued at 1216 PM MDT Mon May 11 2026 The upper level ridge will shift slowly east out of NM on Wednesday giving way to an increase in PWATs across western NM, which will bring greater coverage of daytime heating triggered convection. However, the lower levels of the atmosphere will remain very dry and little to no wetting (>0.10") rain is anticipated. Instead, dry lightning and strong/erratic wind gusts will be the rule Wednesday afternoon and evening. Otherwise, the heat will continue Wednesday, with well above average temperatures. An upper level low racing east from the Great Basin across the northern Rockies will steer stronger westerly winds aloft over NM on Thursday. Daytime heating on Thursday will bring deep layer mixing of these stronger westerly winds, resulting in breezy to windy conditions by afternoon with large sustained/gust spreads. Well above average temperatures will persist Fri/Sat, with lighter winds. Winds may trend back up Sun/Mon as an upper level trough approaches slowly from the west coast. However, the forecast beyond Saturday is of low forecast confidence at this time given both model spread and lack of run-to-run consistency. Worth of note, the 12Z GFS is bringing Gulf moisture into the eastern plains Saturday night through Sunday and indicating the potential for a severe thunderstorm or two near the NM/TX border Sunday afternoon/evening. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1118 PM MDT Mon May 11 2026 VFR conditions will continue to prevail through the TAF period. Clear skies will prevail with the exception of sfc based cumulus in and around the high terrain during the afternoon hours. A few gusty showers may develop in the SW and South Central mtns between 18Z and 00Z, but coverage will be very limited. Winds will generally be light (<10 kts) as a ridge moves overhead. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 1216 PM MDT Mon May 11 2026 Hot and dry conditions will prevail through mid week as an upper high over AZ progresses east across the region. Winds will be light under this regime, although a crop of dry showers and storms will bring strong/erratic wind gusts on Wednesday with some dry lightning activity. Any lightning ignitions on Wednesday could lead to fire growth on Thursday as stronger westerlies are steered over the region and deep layer mixing brings breezy to locally windy conditions. Further drying is forecast Thursday as well, with many hours of single digit humidity forecast across western NM. Critical fire weather conditions are forecast across much of eastern NM on Thursday afternoon and may include the northern mountains. ERCs are forecast to trend up this week, so will closely evaluate the need for a watch over the next 24hrs. Winds trend down Fri/Sat, but warm and dry conditions persist and several hours of elevated to near-critical fire weather conditions are likely during the afternoons. Backing and strengthening winds aloft on Sun/Mon in advance of an upper level trough will increase chances for critical fire weather conditions, especially given continued drying and rising ERCs. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 1107 AM MDT Mon May 11 2026 - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday and Wednesday across the lower elevations of central and eastern NM due to near-record heat. - Isolated evaporating showers and dry storms Wednesday and Thursday afternoons will create localized gusty winds over the high terrain of western and northern New Mexico. - Low chance of critical fire weather conditions in central and eastern New Mexico Thursday and Friday. && .SHORT TERM... (Today through Tuesday) Issued at 127 AM MDT Mon May 11 2026 The pressure gradient associated with the backdoor cold front passage yesterday is beginning to wash out and winds are decreasing as a result. Gusty east winds through the gaps of the central mountain chain should end by sunrise, with winds turning around to the south by the afternoon. The center of an H5 ridge will shift eastward from AZ into western NM this afternoon, keeping winds light in most areas. Temperatures will rise above Sunday's highs, with most areas in the 80s. The warming trend continues into Tuesday as the center of the ridge moves directly over central NM. 500 mb heights around 591 dam will increase temps another 5 to 15 degrees above Monday's levels. This will probably be the warmest day of the week in most areas, including the Albuquerque metro where there is a 70 to 90% chance of temps reaching 90F. In general, temperatures will be similar to those during the historic heatwave back in March. That being said, it will likely feel warmer with the higher sun angle and much warmer overnight temperatures. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday night through Sunday) Issued at 127 AM MDT Mon May 11 2026 The ridge will begin to break down on Wednesday, sending temps down a few ticks in most areas. Moisture embedded within southwest flow out ahead of a shortwave trough could create a few high based showers during the afternoon hours on Wednesday. Pockets of modest instability with LIs between 0 and -2C suggest there could be a stray lightning strike or two as well, but coverage will be very limited. The coverage of convection increases slightly on Thursday in response to strengthening lift from the subtropical jet to the south. The deterministic GFS along with the GEFS ensemble mean show a trough moving into the Four Corners region Thursday, which could help to increase the coverage of showers a tad more over the northwest third of the state. Both Wednesday and Thursday will have southwest breezes in the afternoon as well thanks to increasing flow aloft, but wind gusts should remain below 35 mph in most areas. The synoptic pattern over the western CONUS will remain progressive Friday through the weekend, favoring the continuation of afternoon breezes and above average temps. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1107 AM MDT Mon May 11 2026 VFR conditions prevail and are forecast to persist through the TAF period. Typical late afternoon gustiness is forecast, but otherwise winds will remain light. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 127 AM MDT Mon May 11 2026 A warming and drying trend is forecast early this week, with temperatures rising to 10 to 20 degrees above normal by Tuesday. Afternoon humidities drop into the single digits in most areas Tuesday, which will likely be the driest day of the week. Winds will generally be light given the ridge overhead, but south to west breezes trend stronger late in the week as ridge breaks down and the sub-tropical jet shifts overhead. Pockets of moisture could lead to the development of isolated showers and even a few dry storms both Wednesday and Thursday afternoons, with coverage focusing over the high terrain of western and northern New Mexico. There is a low to moderate chance of critical fire weather conditions on Thursday and Friday as a result of increasing winds, but model uncertainty remains high. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 127 AM MDT Mon May 11 2026 - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday and Wednesday across the lower elevations of central and eastern NM due to near-record heat. - Isolated evaporating showers and dry storms Wednesday and Thursday afternoons will create localized gusty winds over the high terrain of western and northern New Mexico. - Low chance of critical fire weather conditions in central and eastern New Mexico Thursday and Friday. && .SHORT TERM... (Today through Tuesday) Issued at 127 AM MDT Mon May 11 2026 The pressure gradient associated with the backdoor cold front passage yesterday is beginning to wash out and winds are decreasing as a result. Gusty east winds through the gaps of the central mountain chain should end by sunrise, with winds turning around to the south by the afternoon. The center of an H5 ridge will shift eastward from AZ into western NM this afternoon, keeping winds light in most areas. Temperatures will rise above Sunday's highs, with most areas in the 80s. The warming trend continues into Tuesday as the center of the ridge moves directly over central NM. 500 mb heights around 591 dam will increase temps another 5 to 15 degrees above Monday's levels. This will probably be the warmest day of the week in most areas, including the Albuquerque metro where there is a 70 to 90% chance of temps reaching 90F. In general, temperatures will be similar to those during the historic heatwave back in March. That being said, it will likely feel warmer with the higher sun angle and much warmer overnight temperatures. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday night through Sunday) Issued at 127 AM MDT Mon May 11 2026 The ridge will begin to break down on Wednesday, sending temps down a few ticks in most areas. Moisture embedded within southwest flow out ahead of a shortwave trough could create a few high based showers during the afternoon hours on Wednesday. Pockets of modest instability with LIs between 0 and -2C suggest there could be a stray lightning strike or two as well, but coverage will be very limited. The coverage of convection increases slightly on Thursday in response to strengthening lift from the subtropical jet to the south. The deterministic GFS along with the GEFS ensemble mean show a trough moving into the Four Corners region Thursday, which could help to increase the coverage of showers a tad more over the northwest third of the state. Both Wednesday and Thursday will have southwest breezes in the afternoon as well thanks to increasing flow aloft, but wind gusts should remain below 35 mph in most areas. The synoptic pattern over the western CONUS will remain progressive Friday through the weekend, favoring the continuation of afternoon breezes and above average temps. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1137 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Easterly upslope flow in eastern NM has led to the development of MVFR cigs along the east slopes of the central mtn chain. These low clouds will expand in coverage through 12Z and may sneak through Glorieta pass into the vicinity of KSAF. Patchy fog may develop in the eastern plains, generally south of I-40. There is a low chance (~20%) that this fog impacts KROW around sunrise. Clouds and fog will clear rapidly after sunrise, giving way to clear skies areawide today. Afternoon winds will be light (<10 kts) at most terminals. Gusty east winds up to 35 kts at KABQ will continue through around 08Z, with winds diminishing significantly late tonight. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 127 AM MDT Mon May 11 2026 A warming and drying trend is forecast early this week, with temperatures rising to 10 to 20 degrees above normal by Tuesday. Afternoon humidities drop into the single digits in most areas Tuesday, which will likely be the driest day of the week. Winds will generally be light given the ridge overhead, but south to west breezes trend stronger late in the week as ridge breaks down and the sub-tropical jet shifts overhead. Pockets of moisture could lead to the development of isolated showers and even a few dry storms both Wednesday and Thursday afternoons, with coverage focusing over the high terrain of western and northern New Mexico. There is a low to moderate chance of critical fire weather conditions on Thursday and Friday as a result of increasing winds, but model uncertainty remains high. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 1137 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday and Wednesday across the lower elevations of central and eastern NM due to near-record heat. && .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Monday night) Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 The backdoor cold front has stalled it's westward progression along the central mountain chain early this afternoon, but is still forecast to result in gusty east winds into the Rio Grande and Upper Tularosa Valleys later this afternoon and evening as it surges west through the gaps and down the canyons. Upslope forcing, combined with sufficient moisture and daytime heating, is resulting in a slow-growing round of convection along the east slopes of the central mountain chain early this afternoon. No lightning yet, but all of the recent CAMs show this round expanding in intensity through the afternoon hours and potentially impacting Las Vegas, Clines Corner, Vaughn, Corona and Ruidoso. The SPC has this area in a marginal risk area for severe storms today, but the area with the highest probability for severe storms is in/near the South Central Mountains where the 12Z NAM shows 0-6km bulk shear reaching 40kts, with muCAPE of close to 2,000J/kg and LIs of -5C. All of the CAMs show convection diminishing rapidly with the loss of daytime heating this evening. The gusty east canyon wind is forecast to relax around midnight an skies are forecast to clear overnight. Drying aloft is forecast tonight behind a departing shortwave trough, but the near-surface layer across southeast NM will be fairly saturated and fog will likely develop along/east of a Roswell to Fort Sumner to Clovis line. There is a moderate chance (40-50%) that a Dense Fog Advisory will be required early Monday morning with the highest confidence area around/near Clovis and Portales. A 590dam 500mb high will develop over AZ Monday and shift east into NM Monday night, bringing warmer temperatures. High temperatures will generally be 5-10 degrees above average Monday, except for a few degrees below average across southeast NM where the impacts of today's cold front will linger longer. A few showers are likely by late afternoon Monday across the western and southern high terrain, but will favor gusty winds over measurable rainfall. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 The 590dam 500mb will move directly over NM on Tuesday, bringing the hottest day of the work-week with highs approaching daily records at several locales. The heat will persist into Wednesday as the upper level ridge is slow to shift east of the region. A slight uptick in moisture in the mid levels of the atmosphere, combined with daytime heating, will result in a round of late day and mostly dry convection favoring central and western areas Wednesday. Inverted-V sounding profiles will be favorable for strong/erratic wind gusts late Wednesday afternoon into the evening hours. An upper level low is forecast to progress east across the Intermountain West from Wednesday through Friday, potentially steering stronger westerlies over NM and resulting in windy conditions. However, there is notable spread among the 12Z model solutions with the track and speed of this upper air feature leading to lower forecast confidence beyond Wednesday. That said, the modeling for the weekend shows dry/warm conditions persisting with backing winds aloft ahead of a weak Pacific trough, potentially pulling Gulf moisture into eastern NM late Sunday. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1137 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Easterly upslope flow in eastern NM has led to the development of MVFR cigs along the east slopes of the central mtn chain. These low clouds will expand in coverage through 12Z and may sneak through Glorieta pass into the vicinity of KSAF. Patchy fog may develop in the eastern plains, generally south of I-40. There is a low chance (~20%) that this fog impacts KROW around sunrise. Clouds and fog will clear rapidly after sunrise, giving way to clear skies areawide today. Afternoon winds will be light (<10 kts) at most terminals. Gusty east winds up to 35 kts at KABQ will continue through around 08Z, with winds diminishing significantly late tonight. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 A warming and drying trend continues, except for behind a backdoor cold front across eastern NM where higher humidity and cooler temperatures prevail this afternoon. A few storms are likely later this afternoon and evening along the east slopes of the central mountain chain and adjacent eastern highlands, where lightning ignitions can not be ruled-out. An upper high over AZ will shift east over NM from Monday through Tuesday, bringing hotter conditions, well above average temperatures and mostly light winds. The ridge will shift east Wednesday and allow moisture to trend up in the mid levels of the atmosphere, supporting heating-triggered dry showers and storms that will favor gusty/erratic winds over wetting rainfall. Winds will increase Thu/Fri as an upper level trough/low moves east from the Great Basin through the Rockies, bringing stronger westerly winds aloft and a deepening lee side trough. Probabilities for critical fire weather conditions are on the upswing for Thu/Fri as a result, but are still relatively low given model spread with the track and speed of the upper level trough/low. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 542 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 - Marginal risk of severe thunderstorms producing occasional lightning, strong winds, and hail along central mountain chain and nearby highlands this afternoon and early evening. - Difficult crosswinds in the Rio Grande and Upper Tularosa Valleys late this afternoon and evening, especially for high profile vehicles, due to a gusty east canyon wind. - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday and Wednesday across the lower elevations of central and eastern NM due to near-record heat. && .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Monday night) Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 The backdoor cold front has stalled it's westward progression along the central mountain chain early this afternoon, but is still forecast to result in gusty east winds into the Rio Grande and Upper Tularosa Valleys later this afternoon and evening as it surges west through the gaps and down the canyons. Upslope forcing, combined with sufficient moisture and daytime heating, is resulting in a slow-growing round of convection along the east slopes of the central mountain chain early this afternoon. No lightning yet, but all of the recent CAMs show this round expanding in intensity through the afternoon hours and potentially impacting Las Vegas, Clines Corner, Vaughn, Corona and Ruidoso. The SPC has this area in a marginal risk area for severe storms today, but the area with the highest probability for severe storms is in/near the South Central Mountains where the 12Z NAM shows 0-6km bulk shear reaching 40kts, with muCAPE of close to 2,000J/kg and LIs of -5C. All of the CAMs show convection diminishing rapidly with the loss of daytime heating this evening. The gusty east canyon wind is forecast to relax around midnight an skies are forecast to clear overnight. Drying aloft is forecast tonight behind a departing shortwave trough, but the near-surface layer across southeast NM will be fairly saturated and fog will likely develop along/east of a Roswell to Fort Sumner to Clovis line. There is a moderate chance (40-50%) that a Dense Fog Advisory will be required early Monday morning with the highest confidence area around/near Clovis and Portales. A 590dam 500mb high will develop over AZ Monday and shift east into NM Monday night, bringing warmer temperatures. High temperatures will generally be 5-10 degrees above average Monday, except for a few degrees below average across southeast NM where the impacts of today's cold front will linger longer. A few showers are likely by late afternoon Monday across the western and southern high terrain, but will favor gusty winds over measurable rainfall. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 The 590dam 500mb will move directly over NM on Tuesday, bringing the hottest day of the work-week with highs approaching daily records at several locales. The heat will persist into Wednesday as the upper level ridge is slow to shift east of the region. A slight uptick in moisture in the mid levels of the atmosphere, combined with daytime heating, will result in a round of late day and mostly dry convection favoring central and western areas Wednesday. Inverted-V sounding profiles will be favorable for strong/erratic wind gusts late Wednesday afternoon into the evening hours. An upper level low is forecast to progress east across the Intermountain West from Wednesday through Friday, potentially steering stronger westerlies over NM and resulting in windy conditions. However, there is notable spread among the 12Z model solutions with the track and speed of this upper air feature leading to lower forecast confidence beyond Wednesday. That said, the modeling for the weekend shows dry/warm conditions persisting with backing winds aloft ahead of a weak Pacific trough, potentially pulling Gulf moisture into eastern NM late Sunday. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 542 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 East winds will continue to be gusty below canyons opening into the central valley until mid-to-late evening. Areas of fog and low clouds are forecast to produce IFR conditions late tonight until mid morning Monday from Dunken and Roswell northeastward to Clovis and Portales. Some patchy fog and low clouds will also be possible along the east slopes of the central and south central mountains including Moriarty, Estancia, and Ruidoso early Monday morning. Otherwise, VFR conditions are forecast on Monday. Seasonably gusty southwest winds will develop mainly over northeast and east- central areas during the afternoon. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 A warming and drying trend continues, except for behind a backdoor cold front across eastern NM where higher humidity and cooler temperatures prevail this afternoon. A few storms are likely later this afternoon and evening along the east slopes of the central mountain chain and adjacent eastern highlands, where lightning ignitions can not be ruled-out. An upper high over AZ will shift east over NM from Monday through Tuesday, bringing hotter conditions, well above average temperatures and mostly light winds. The ridge will shift east Wednesday and allow moisture to trend up in the mid levels of the atmosphere, supporting heating-triggered dry showers and storms that will favor gusty/erratic winds over wetting rainfall. Winds will increase Thu/Fri as an upper level trough/low moves east from the Great Basin through the Rockies, bringing stronger westerly winds aloft and a deepening lee side trough. Probabilities for critical fire weather conditions are on the upswing for Thu/Fri as a result, but are still relatively low given model spread with the track and speed of the upper level trough/low. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 - Marginal risk of severe thunderstorms producing occasional lightning, strong winds, and hail along central mountain chain and nearby highlands this afternoon and early evening. - Difficult crosswinds in the Rio Grande and Upper Tularosa Valleys late this afternoon and evening, especially for high profile vehicles, due to a gusty east canyon wind. - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday and Wednesday across the lower elevations of central and eastern NM due to near-record heat. && .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Monday night) Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 The backdoor cold front has stalled it's westward progression along the central mountain chain early this afternoon, but is still forecast to result in gusty east winds into the Rio Grande and Upper Tularosa Valleys later this afternoon and evening as it surges west through the gaps and down the canyons. Upslope forcing, combined with sufficient moisture and daytime heating, is resulting in a slow-growing round of convection along the east slopes of the central mountain chain early this afternoon. No lightning yet, but all of the recent CAMs show this round expanding in intensity through the afternoon hours and potentially impacting Las Vegas, Clines Corner, Vaughn, Corona and Ruidoso. The SPC has this area in a marginal risk area for severe storms today, but the area with the highest probability for severe storms is in/near the South Central Mountains where the 12Z NAM shows 0-6km bulk shear reaching 40kts, with muCAPE of close to 2,000J/kg and LIs of -5C. All of the CAMs show convection diminishing rapidly with the loss of daytime heating this evening. The gusty east canyon wind is forecast to relax around midnight an skies are forecast to clear overnight. Drying aloft is forecast tonight behind a departing shortwave trough, but the near-surface layer across southeast NM will be fairly saturated and fog will likely develop along/east of a Roswell to Fort Sumner to Clovis line. There is a moderate chance (40-50%) that a Dense Fog Advisory will be required early Monday morning with the highest confidence area around/near Clovis and Portales. A 590dam 500mb high will develop over AZ Monday and shift east into NM Monday night, bringing warmer temperatures. High temperatures will generally be 5-10 degrees above average Monday, except for a few degrees below average across southeast NM where the impacts of today's cold front will linger longer. A few showers are likely by late afternoon Monday across the western and southern high terrain, but will favor gusty winds over measurable rainfall. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 The 590dam 500mb will move directly over NM on Tuesday, bringing the hottest day of the work-week with highs approaching daily records at several locales. The heat will persist into Wednesday as the upper level ridge is slow to shift east of the region. A slight uptick in moisture in the mid levels of the atmosphere, combined with daytime heating, will result in a round of late day and mostly dry convection favoring central and western areas Wednesday. Inverted-V sounding profiles will be favorable for strong/erratic wind gusts late Wednesday afternoon into the evening hours. An upper level low is forecast to progress east across the Intermountain West from Wednesday through Friday, potentially steering stronger westerlies over NM and resulting in windy conditions. However, there is notable spread among the 12Z model solutions with the track and speed of this upper air feature leading to lower forecast confidence beyond Wednesday. That said, the modeling for the weekend shows dry/warm conditions persisting with backing winds aloft ahead of a weak Pacific trough, potentially pulling Gulf moisture into eastern NM late Sunday. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 VFR conditions prevail and are forecast to persist, with a couple of exceptions. Brief MVFR conditions are likely with iso/sct showers and storms this afternoon/evening along and east of the central mountain chain, potentially impacting KROW between 00-03Z. In addition, moderate probabilities for LIFR conditions in low stratus/fog exist across portions of the east central and southeast plains early Monday morning, but probabilities are too low at KROW to include in TAF at this time. A gusty east canyon wind is forecast to develop late this afternoon, then continue into the evening hours at KABQ and an Airport Weather Warning for gusts to 40kts will be issued shortly. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 1218 PM MDT Sun May 10 2026 A warming and drying trend continues, except for behind a backdoor cold front across eastern NM where higher humidity and cooler temperatures prevail this afternoon. A few storms are likely later this afternoon and evening along the east slopes of the central mountain chain and adjacent eastern highlands, where lightning ignitions can not be ruled-out. An upper high over AZ will shift east over NM from Monday through Tuesday, bringing hotter conditions, well above average temperatures and mostly light winds. The ridge will shift east Wednesday and allow moisture to trend up in the mid levels of the atmosphere, supporting heating-triggered dry showers and storms that will favor gusty/erratic winds over wetting rainfall. Winds will increase Thu/Fri as an upper level trough/low moves east from the Great Basin through the Rockies, bringing stronger westerly winds aloft and a deepening lee side trough. Probabilities for critical fire weather conditions are on the upswing for Thu/Fri as a result, but are still relatively low given model spread with the track and speed of the upper level trough/low. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 1119 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 - Lightning and strong winds from thunderstorms along the central mountain chain and nearby highlands this afternoon and early evening. A few storms across the south central high terrain could produce severe wind gusts and large hail. - Gusty north winds across eastern New Mexico this morning and east canyon winds across central New Mexico this evening will result in difficult crosswinds for high profile vehicles. - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday from record temperatures in the 90s across lower elevation areas. && .SHORT TERM... (Today through Monday) Issued at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Moisture out ahead of a shortwave trough remains draped over New Mexico tonight. Radar is picking up on some very light echoes out there. although very little to no precipitation is likely reaching the ground. Localized and very brief gusty outflow winds will continue to remain a possibility through the night. A backdoor front has just pushed into far northeastern NM and will continue its trek south and westward through the night, with increasing north to northeast winds in its wake. Hi-res models are showing the strongest winds occurring around sunrise in the east-central plains, with max gusts in 40 to 50 mph range. While a few gusts over 50 mph cannot be ruled out, most guidance is keeping winds below this threshold (Wind Advisory) so no hazards have been issued. The front's progress will be stalled right along the east slopes of the central mountain chain late morning, acting as the lifting mechanism for a crop of showers and storms in the afternoon. Scattered convection will develop over the high terrain, drifting eastward into the adjacent highlands during the afternoon hours. Ensemble mean wind shear is in the 30-40KT range and this combined with sfc based CAPE of 300-600 J/kg will be enough for some strong storms and there is a low chance of storms briefly intensifying to severe levels, with strong outflow wind gusts the main hazard of concern. Most hi-res models are showing storms dissipating as they move into the plains as they move off the frontal boundary. The lone exception may be in the southeast plains where a few hi-res models are showing a storm or two making it as far east as Roswell by the evening hours thanks to a pocket of enhanced lift provided by a N/S oriented jet streak. In addition, convection along the central mountain chain will push the backdoor frontal boundary westward through the gaps of the central mtn chain. Wind gusts will likely peak late afternoon in both Albuquerque and Santa Fe, but the gusty winds will continue through the evening into the overnight hours as the cooler and more moist airmass spills into the Rio Grande Valley. Quiter conditions prevail around the region on Monday as ridging builds in over the desert southwest. Temperatures will warm a few to as much as 20 degrees from Sunday's highs, with the biggest rises in the east where temps will be much cooler Sunday thanks to low cloud cover. There is a low chance of an isolated shower or two in the Sacramento mtns during the afternoon hours Monday, but almost no rainfall is expected to reach the ground with dewpoint depressions in excess of 40F. && .LONG TERM... (Monday night through Saturday) Issued at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Ridging will shift overhead Monday into Tuesday, increasing temperatures and keeping winds light. 500 mb heights peak on Tuesday around 591 dam and could exceed the 99th percentile of climatology per NAEFS. As a result, a few record highs could be threatened and pockets of moderate heat risk will develop along the Rio Grande Valley and in the eastern plains. The ridge will begin to break down Wednesday into Thursday as the sub-tropical jet moves overhead again. This will increase south to southwest winds, but temperatures will not drop significantly since the breeze will create downsloping winds. The passage of a trough to the north could generate a few high-based showers on Thursday afternoon, with gusty outflow winds being the main concern and any wetting rainfall unlikely. Then, quasi-zonal flow develops over the weekend. The strength of the flow will determine whether there are any storms, with weaker flow allowing for return flow from the Gulf to sneak into eastern NM. All ensemble means are showing higher dewpoints next weekend into the early part of the following week into eastern NM, but the signal remains washed out given model differences in the strength of the subtropical jet over the desert southwest. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1119 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 VFR conditions prevail and are forecast to persist, with a couple of exceptions. Brief MVFR conditions are likely with iso/sct showers and storms this afternoon/evening along and east of the central mountain chain, potentially impacting KROW between 00-03Z. In addition, moderate probabilities for LIFR conditions in low stratus/fog exist across portions of the east central and southeast plains early Monday morning, but probabilities are too low at KROW to include in TAF at this time. A gusty east canyon wind is forecast to develop late this afternoon, then continue into the evening hours at KABQ and an Airport Weather Warning for gusts to 40kts will be issued shortly. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Critical fire weather conditions are unlikely through next weekend. A strong backdoor front will bring strong north to northeast winds, cooler temperatures, and higher humidity to eastern NM today. The front will reach the central mountain chain this afternoon where scattered showers and storms will focus. Strong to damaging outflow winds will be the main hazard with any storms that develop. Outflow boundaries will push the frontal boundary west through the gaps of the central mountain chain this afternoon and evening, creating strong east/southeast winds at the base of canyon openings. East winds will push all the way to the Cont. Divide but they will struggle to progress much further than that tonight. A warming trend is likely early next week as ridging shifts overhead. This will result in very dry conditions, with single digit humidity in most areas on Tuesday. This will also decrease mixing heights somewhat, with afternoon ventilation fair to good in most areas. The ridge will break down mid-next week, resulting in the development of a south to southwest breeze and the potential for a few high based showers in the afternoon. Winds look to be the strongest on Thursday afternoon, but even then sustained winds should generally remain below 25 mph. Quasi-zonal flow will develop Friday into the weekend, with dry and breezy conditions creating widespread elevated to near critical fire weather conditions. There is a low chance of dry line storms in far eastern NM this weekend. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 534 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 - Lightning and strong winds from thunderstorms along the central mountain chain and nearby highlands this afternoon and early evening. A few storms across the south central high terrain could produce severe wind gusts and large hail. - Gusty north winds across eastern New Mexico this morning and east canyon winds across central New Mexico this evening will result in difficult crosswinds for high profile vehicles. - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday from record temperatures in the 90s across lower elevation areas. && .SHORT TERM... (Today through Monday) Issued at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Moisture out ahead of a shortwave trough remains draped over New Mexico tonight. Radar is picking up on some very light echoes out there. although very little to no precipitation is likely reaching the ground. Localized and very brief gusty outflow winds will continue to remain a possibility through the night. A backdoor front has just pushed into far northeastern NM and will continue its trek south and westward through the night, with increasing north to northeast winds in its wake. Hi-res models are showing the strongest winds occurring around sunrise in the east-central plains, with max gusts in 40 to 50 mph range. While a few gusts over 50 mph cannot be ruled out, most guidance is keeping winds below this threshold (Wind Advisory) so no hazards have been issued. The front's progress will be stalled right along the east slopes of the central mountain chain late morning, acting as the lifting mechanism for a crop of showers and storms in the afternoon. Scattered convection will develop over the high terrain, drifting eastward into the adjacent highlands during the afternoon hours. Ensemble mean wind shear is in the 30-40KT range and this combined with sfc based CAPE of 300-600 J/kg will be enough for some strong storms and there is a low chance of storms briefly intensifying to severe levels, with strong outflow wind gusts the main hazard of concern. Most hi-res models are showing storms dissipating as they move into the plains as they move off the frontal boundary. The lone exception may be in the southeast plains where a few hi-res models are showing a storm or two making it as far east as Roswell by the evening hours thanks to a pocket of enhanced lift provided by a N/S oriented jet streak. In addition, convection along the central mountain chain will push the backdoor frontal boundary westward through the gaps of the central mtn chain. Wind gusts will likely peak late afternoon in both Albuquerque and Santa Fe, but the gusty winds will continue through the evening into the overnight hours as the cooler and more moist airmass spills into the Rio Grande Valley. Quiter conditions prevail around the region on Monday as ridging builds in over the desert southwest. Temperatures will warm a few to as much as 20 degrees from Sunday's highs, with the biggest rises in the east where temps will be much cooler Sunday thanks to low cloud cover. There is a low chance of an isolated shower or two in the Sacramento mtns during the afternoon hours Monday, but almost no rainfall is expected to reach the ground with dewpoint depressions in excess of 40F. && .LONG TERM... (Monday night through Saturday) Issued at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Ridging will shift overhead Monday into Tuesday, increasing temperatures and keeping winds light. 500 mb heights peak on Tuesday around 591 dam and could exceed the 99th percentile of climatology per NAEFS. As a result, a few record highs could be threatened and pockets of moderate heat risk will develop along the Rio Grande Valley and in the eastern plains. The ridge will begin to break down Wednesday into Thursday as the sub-tropical jet moves overhead again. This will increase south to southwest winds, but temperatures will not drop significantly since the breeze will create downsloping winds. The passage of a trough to the north could generate a few high-based showers on Thursday afternoon, with gusty outflow winds being the main concern and any wetting rainfall unlikely. Then, quasi-zonal flow develops over the weekend. The strength of the flow will determine whether there are any storms, with weaker flow allowing for return flow from the Gulf to sneak into eastern NM. All ensemble means are showing higher dewpoints next weekend into the early part of the following week into eastern NM, but the signal remains washed out given model differences in the strength of the subtropical jet over the desert southwest. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 534 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 The backdoor front has surged southward to I-40 as of 11Z, but gusty north winds associated with gusty showers precede the frontal passage. North to northeast wind gusts of 25 to 35 kts will be commonplace in eastern NM this morning, with winds trending weaker this afternoon as they turn around to the east. MVFR conditions have developed in the east-central and northeast plains and will likely persist through around mid-afternoon. Scattered storms will develop along the central mtn chain around 18Z, increasing in coverage through 21Z as they move eastward into the adjacent highlands. Most storms will dissipate by 02Z, with the exception of an isolated storm or two in the southeast plains. Outflow wind gusts combined with the backdoor frontal passage will create gusty gap winds at both KABQ and KSAF this afternoon into the night. There is a high chance (~75%) that an AWW will be needed for KABQ. Pockets of MVFR to IFR cigs are forecast to develop along the the east slopes of the central mtn chain tonight thanks to easterly upslope flow. There is a low chance (~25%) that MVFR cigs extend eastward into Roswell. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Critical fire weather conditions are unlikely through next weekend. A strong backdoor front will bring strong north to northeast winds, cooler temperatures, and higher humidity to eastern NM today. The front will reach the central mountain chain this afternoon where scattered showers and storms will focus. Strong to damaging outflow winds will be the main hazard with any storms that develop. Outflow boundaries will push the frontal boundary west through the gaps of the central mountain chain this afternoon and evening, creating strong east/southeast winds at the base of canyon openings. East winds will push all the way to the Cont. Divide but they will struggle to progress much further than that tonight. A warming trend is likely early next week as ridging shifts overhead. This will result in very dry conditions, with single digit humidity in most areas on Tuesday. This will also decrease mixing heights somewhat, with afternoon ventilation fair to good in most areas. The ridge will break down mid-next week, resulting in the development of a south to southwest breeze and the potential for a few high based showers in the afternoon. Winds look to be the strongest on Thursday afternoon, but even then sustained winds should generally remain below 25 mph.

Updated at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 - Lightning and strong winds from thunderstorms along the central mountain chain and nearby highlands this afternoon and early evening. A few storms across the south central high terrain could produce severe wind gusts and large hail. - Gusty north winds across eastern New Mexico this morning and east canyon winds across central New Mexico this evening will result in difficult crosswinds for high profile vehicles. - Minor to moderate risk of heat-related illness for sensitive populations Tuesday from record temperatures in the 90s across lower elevation areas. && .SHORT TERM... (Today through Monday) Issued at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Moisture out ahead of a shortwave trough remains draped over New Mexico tonight. Radar is picking up on some very light echoes out there. although very little to no precipitation is likely reaching the ground. Localized and very brief gusty outflow winds will continue to remain a possibility through the night. A backdoor front has just pushed into far northeastern NM and will continue its trek south and westward through the night, with increasing north to northeast winds in its wake. Hi-res models are showing the strongest winds occurring around sunrise in the east-central plains, with max gusts in 40 to 50 mph range. While a few gusts over 50 mph cannot be ruled out, most guidance is keeping winds below this threshold (Wind Advisory) so no hazards have been issued. The front's progress will be stalled right along the east slopes of the central mountain chain late morning, acting as the lifting mechanism for a crop of showers and storms in the afternoon. Scattered convection will develop over the high terrain, drifting eastward into the adjacent highlands during the afternoon hours. Ensemble mean wind shear is in the 30-40KT range and this combined with sfc based CAPE of 300-600 J/kg will be enough for some strong storms and there is a low chance of storms briefly intensifying to severe levels, with strong outflow wind gusts the main hazard of concern. Most hi-res models are showing storms dissipating as they move into the plains as they move off the frontal boundary. The lone exception may be in the southeast plains where a few hi-res models are showing a storm or two making it as far east as Roswell by the evening hours thanks to a pocket of enhanced lift provided by a N/S oriented jet streak. In addition, convection along the central mountain chain will push the backdoor frontal boundary westward through the gaps of the central mtn chain. Wind gusts will likely peak late afternoon in both Albuquerque and Santa Fe, but the gusty winds will continue through the evening into the overnight hours as the cooler and more moist airmass spills into the Rio Grande Valley. Quiter conditions prevail around the region on Monday as ridging builds in over the desert southwest. Temperatures will warm a few to as much as 20 degrees from Sunday's highs, with the biggest rises in the east where temps will be much cooler Sunday thanks to low cloud cover. There is a low chance of an isolated shower or two in the Sacramento mtns during the afternoon hours Monday, but almost no rainfall is expected to reach the ground with dewpoint depressions in excess of 40F. && .LONG TERM... (Monday night through Saturday) Issued at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Ridging will shift overhead Monday into Tuesday, increasing temperatures and keeping winds light. 500 mb heights peak on Tuesday around 591 dam and could exceed the 99th percentile of climatology per NAEFS. As a result, a few record highs could be threatened and pockets of moderate heat risk will develop along the Rio Grande Valley and in the eastern plains. The ridge will begin to break down Wednesday into Thursday as the sub-tropical jet moves overhead again. This will increase south to southwest winds, but temperatures will not drop significantly since the breeze will create downsloping winds. The passage of a trough to the north could generate a few high-based showers on Thursday afternoon, with gusty outflow winds being the main concern and any wetting rainfall unlikely. Then, quasi-zonal flow develops over the weekend. The strength of the flow will determine whether there are any storms, with weaker flow allowing for return flow from the Gulf to sneak into eastern NM. All ensemble means are showing higher dewpoints next weekend into the early part of the following week into eastern NM, but the signal remains washed out given model differences in the strength of the subtropical jet over the desert southwest. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1139 PM MDT Sat May 9 2026 Isolated gusty virga showers and associated outflow boundaries are still present around central and northern NM so localized and very brief strong wind gusts upwards of 40 kts cannot be ruled out through the overnight hours. A strong backdoor front will enter the northeast corner of the state around 07Z, diving south and westward overnight. Gusty north to northeast winds will be present across much of eastern NM, with the strongest winds south of I-40 in the eastern plains. MVFR cigs will develop in the wake of the front, but will generally be confined to the northeast corner of the state between 12Z and 18Z. Scattered showers and storms will develop along the central mountain chain between 18Z and 21Z Sunday afternoon, moving eastward into the adjacent highlands later in the afternoon. Strong outflow wind gusts will be the main concern with this activity and it will help to push the cold front westward through the gaps of the central mtn chain. There is around an 70% chance that an AWW will be needed at KABQ for Sunday afternoon/evening. Other than a lingering shower or two, most convection should end by 03Z Monday. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 134 AM MDT Sun May 10 2026 Critical fire weather conditions are unlikely through next weekend. A strong backdoor front will bring strong north to northeast winds, cooler temperatures, and higher humidity to eastern NM today. The front will reach the central mountain chain this afternoon where scattered showers and storms will focus. Strong to damaging outflow winds will be the main hazard with any storms that develop. Outflow boundaries will push the frontal boundary west through the gaps of the central mountain chain this afternoon and evening, creating strong east/southeast winds at the base of canyon openings. East winds will push all the way to the Cont. Divide but they will struggle to progress much further than that tonight. A warming trend is likely early next week as ridging shifts overhead. This will result in very dry conditions, with single digit humidity in most areas on Tuesday. This will also decrease mixing heights somewhat, with afternoon ventilation fair to good in most areas. The ridge will break down mid-next week, resulting in the development of a south to southwest breeze and the potential for a few high based showers in the afternoon. Winds look to be the strongest on Thursday afternoon, but even then sustained winds should generally remain below 25 mph. Quasi-zonal flow will develop Friday into the weekend, with dry and breezy conditions creating widespread elevated to near critical fire weather conditions. There is a low chance of dry line storms in far eastern NM this weekend. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
