040 FNUS55 KABQ 081214 FWFABQ Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central New Mexico National Weather Service Albuquerque NM 514 AM MST Wed Jan 8 2025 .DISCUSSION... Main fire weather concern will be poor ventilation today and again over the weekend into early next week. Light snow over southern areas today will taper off through the morning hours. Then quiet but cold conditions will prevail for the rest of the day. Another round of light snow is expected Thursday and Thursday night with southern and eastern areas favored. Gusty winds are also expected Thursday across eastern NM behind a backdoor cold front. Gusts near 40 mph are expected. This will reinforce the cold temperatures across the state through Friday. A brief warm-up is expected Saturday, but another cold front will arrive to cool temperatures back down for Sunday.
