...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR WEST-CENTRAL NEW MEXICO INTO FAR
EASTERN ARIZONA...
..SYNOPSIS
A MID-LEVEL TROUGH (AND ASSOCIATED SOUTHWESTERLY MID-LEVEL FLOW) IS
FORECAST TO BE OVER CENTRAL CALIFORNIA BY THE EARLY EVENING, WITH A
SURFACE LOW CENTERED OVER THE GREAT BASIN. DEEP BOUNDARY LAYER
MIXING BENEATH THE MID-LEVEL JET, IN COMBINATION WITH A SURFACE LOW
TO THE NORTH, WILL RESULT IN CRITICAL FIRE-WEATHER CONDITIONS ACROSS
PORTIONS OF NEW MEXICO AND ARIZONA.
..WEST-CENTRAL NEW MEXICO INTO FAR EASTERN ARIZONA
20-25 MPH WINDS AND 10-15% RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES ARE FORECAST
OVER MUCH OF WESTERN NEW MEXICO INTO EASTERN ARIZONA, BUT MOST OF
THE RECEPTIVE FUELS (BASED ON ERC PERCENTILES) ARE CONFINED TO
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN NEW MEXICO. THEREFORE, ONLY A RELATIVELY SMALL
AREA OF CRITICAL HIGHLIGHTS ARE FORECAST WHERE METEOROLOGICAL
CONDITIONS AND FUELS EXCEEDING THE 80TH ANNUAL PERCENTILE OVERLAP.
