Storms are favored to initially develop west of Fort Stockton and then move and expand east and northeast across the Trans Pecos and into the Permian Basin. Severe storms are possible, which could produce damaging winds, large hail, frequent cloud to ground lightning strikes and brief heavy rainfall. Fire danger will be high across Southeast New Mexico and parts of Trans Pecos due to the unseasonably hot temperatures and dry air. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY Elevated fire weather conditions are possible Friday and Saturday afternoons across portions of the Guadalupe Mountains, Southeast New Mexico, and the Trans Pecos. Hot temperatures and consequent low relative humidity will be the main threats, but lower winds will limit greater concerns. Very hot temperatures are expected from Friday through the weekend when temperatures will likely be about 10 to 15 degrees above normal, exceeding 105 degrees in many locations. A Heat Advisory will likely be issued for many locations both days. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation may be requested by 400 pm CDT.
