...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR EASTERN NEW MEXICO INTO WEST
TEXAS...

...Synopsis...
A strong surface low across central Nebraska will weaken as it moves
east today. Despite the weakening, a strong pressure gradient is
expected across much of the Plains and into the southern High
Plains. In addition, a deeply mixed atmosphere is expected beneath
strong mid-level flow. Therefore, 20 to 25 mph winds are expected
with relative humidity in the single digits. An extended period of
dry and windy conditions in the southern High Plains has dried fuels
substantially in this region. As a result, large fires will be
possible today.
