NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIDLAND/ODESSA TX
204 AM CDT SUN JUN 28 2026
DISCUSSION
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE NOT ANTICIPATED THROUGH THE
NEXT WEEK. ERCS STAY NEAR THE 50TH PERCENTILE FOR MOST OF THE
AREA WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE GUADALUPE MOUNTAINS AND PORTIONS OF
SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO WHO HAVE TICKED UP TO THE 75TH PERCENTILE.
RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES WILL DROP TO 10-15% EACH AFTERNOON, BUT
WILL NOT COINCIDE WITH THE STRONGEST WINDS THAT ARE EXPECTED EACH
EVENING. ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL PERSIST THROUGH MONDAY
BEFORE TEMPERATURES FALL CLOSER TO NORMAL MIDWEEK. ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED STORMS COULD PRODUCE DRY LIGHTNING STARTS AND
GUSTY/ERRATIC WINDS, PARTICULARLY FOR AREAS WEST OF THE PECOS
RIVER VALLEY.
