in the upper 90s to 100 degrees.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1100 AM MDT Sun Jun 28 2026
Upper low over ID/MT today with an 80-knot jet streak at 500 mb
across the Central Rockies. Lee surface low formation will be over
southern CO this afternoon, inducing breezy southwest winds again
across Southwest New Mexico. Sustained speeds of 15 to 25 mph can
be expected, with a few gusts up to 40 mph mid-afternoon. This has
caused a drying trend for Southwest New Mexico, with no rain
chances over the weekend.
More favorable moisture exists across Chihuahua and Far West Texas
today, with model precipitable water values 1.0-1.2" and surface
dewpoints in the upper 40s/lower 50s. Isolated (20-30% coverage)
showers and thunderstorms can be expected across Hudspeth County
and across I-10, US 62/180 corridor east of El Paso later today.
Storms are not expected be severe, but could produce gusty winds
and blowing dust. Afternoon temperatures will be typical of late
June, with lowland highs in the upper 90s to 100 degrees.
Stagnant weather pattern this week with a large-scale trough over
the Western U.S. and strong high pressure over the
Ohio/Mississippi River valleys. The Southern Rockies will
generally rest in between these two features, with a plume of
subtropical moisture being pulled up over west Texas and the
eastern New Mexico plains. Storm chances will be limited mostly
east of the Rio Grande through the week, with isolated (20-30%)
showers and thunderstorms each afternoon for Otero/Hudspeth
Counties. Best chance for rain will likely be over the Sacramento
Mountains late this week, where terrain forcing aids in
convection. Decent chance El Paso and Las Cruces stay dry through
the Independence Day holiday, with temperatures warming back
toward the 100-104 range again by the latter half of this week.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 523 PM MDT Sun Jun 28 2026
An outflow boundary is approaching KELP from the south with
possible BLDU in the first couple hours of the period. Low
confidence in VIS from the dust. Slight chance of a shower or two
developing near KELP as the outflow hits the Franklins. The
outflow pushes northward towards KLRU and KTCS this evening with
lower speeds and dust concentration. Gusts to 25kts from SW this
evening for all terminals, subsiding to around 10kts overnight.
Gusts to 20kts return tomorrow afternoon with FEW CU forming.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 1100 AM MDT Sun Jun 28 2026
Critical fire weather conditions across Southwest New Mexico this
afternoon with southwest winds 15 to 25 mph and Min RH 12 to 18%
causing a few hours of Red Flag criteria for Gila NF and portions
of Grant/Sierra/Catron Counties. Fuel moisture is currently at
climatological peak dryness and ongoing drought across western New
Mexico has ERCs at the 90th percentile. Wildfire growth will be
possible next few days.
Elevated fire weather conditions will continue across Southwest
New Mexico through the early half of this week, with little to no
rain chances. Winds decrease slightly Monday/Tuesday (southwest
10 to 20 mph) below critical thresholds, but very dry air will
remain in place. Further drying this week will lead to single-
digit RH across Gila NF by midweek. More favorable moisture will
exist further east across West Texas and Eastern New Mexico, where
isolated showers and thunderstorms will be possible for Lincoln
National Forest Thursday into next weekend.
