.DISCUSSION...

Critical to near critical fire weather conditions are expected to
continue Friday across most of our area as an upper-level storm
system creeps nearer. The 500mb jet max will be placed over and near
southeastern New Mexico extending to far west Texas, causing
strong 20ft winds. Along with strong winds, minRH values will be
critical and ERCs will be in the 75-89th percentile across portions
of the Trans Pecos and Permian Basin. A fire weather watch is in
effect for Friday afternoon through Friday evening over southeast
New Mexico, the northwest Permian Basin, and the higher terrain.
Fire weather concerns decrease heading into the weekend as a cold
front arrives Saturday night and the upper-level storm system exits
the region on Sunday.
