119 FNUS55 KABQ 032011 FWFABQ Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico National Weather Service Albuquerque NM 211 PM MDT Wed Jul 3 2024 .DISCUSSION... A drying and warming trend continues through Independence Day with a downtick in wetting storms today, which will trend down further tomorrow. A backdoor front will move west to the central mountain chain late tomorrow and recharge moisture for daily rounds of wetting storms from Friday through the weekend with the potential for burn scar flooding. However, western NM will remain dry and relatively hot under the expanding influence of high pressure along the west coast creeping slowly eastward. Increasing northwest winds on Sunday across northwest NM and a very dry airmass will result in a few hours of critical fire weather conditions across the northwest plateau. However, fuels will likely not be receptive to fire growth given recent wetting rains. A stronger backdoor front will bring moisture west across the area Sunday night and set the stage for a more active period from early to mid next week with rounds of wetting storms and the potential for burn scar flooding.
