What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Albuquerque, NM wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Mar 18, 3:35 AM MDT, 28 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 18, 3:35 AM MDT, 28 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Albuquerque NM 335 AM MDT Sun Mar 18 2018 .SYNOPSIS... A storm system swinging over northern and central New Mexico today and tonight will bring rain, snow and a few thunderstorms to locales along and north of Interstate 40, while very strong winds rake areas along and south of Interstate 40 and along and east of Interstate 25. Critical fire weather conditions redevelop over the Northeast and East Central Plains this afternoon as well. Colder temperatures will invade the region from west to east and accumulating snow will be possible over the San Juan, Chuska, Sangre de Cristo and Jemez mountain peaks. Strong west to northwest winds will persist tonight and into Monday over portions of the central and northeast while chances for precipitation taper off. Tonight through Tuesday will be cooler than normal, but temperatures will rebound and dry weather will prevail by Wednesday. Gusty winds and critical fire weather conditions are possible over the northeast and east central Thursday through Saturday. && .DISCUSSION... Short term models continue the idea of some light showers over the south central to east central early this morning under some thicker mid level clouds before the plume is shunted eastward by the incoming upper storm system. Dew points have increased over this area so painted some 10 to 15 percent pops over that part of the forecast area this morning. Activity associated with the upper system/cold front looks to be a bit slower entering western NM early this morning, and HRRR/RAP13 don't generate any precipitation until between 15z-18Z along and west of the Continental Divide. It's still a fast moving system, although spotty precipitation may be a bit farther south than earlier forecasted, based on guidance pops for the Middle RGV. Didn't go that high though because dew points get scoured out rapidly this afternoon. However, would not be surprised to see isolated virga around here which could result in a brief but variable and very strong to possibly damaging wind gust. Still getting some marginal snowfall amounts for winter weather advisories for the Chuska, Jemez, San Juan and peaks of the Sangre de Cristo mts later today and this evening. Went ahead with a winter weather advisory for the San Juan and northern and southern Sangre de Cristo mts though start time is a bit shaky especially for the Sangre de Cristo portion of the advisory. Not as confident on the snow amounts for the Chuska and Jemez, so left them out, but this may need to be re-evaluated later this morning. Wind highlights were expanded as well, and may need to be adjusted for the northeast corner of the state where strong winds to persist overnight and into Monday. Near to below average temperatures tonight through Tuesday. Dry with rebounding temperatures Wednesday then becoming more unsettled later this week with breezy to windy conditions. There may be a brief round of precipitation Thursday favoring the west and central but no big wetting storm. The weekend looks rather windy but thereafter models diverge significantly. && .FIRE WEATHER... ..CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS EXPECTED ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS TODAY... A potent upper level trough will move rapidly across northern AZ this morning and continue across northern NM this afternoon and early evening. A mix of rain and snow in the lower elevations and snow in the higher elevations is expected across western and north central NM today. Wetting precipitation is likely from the Northwest Plateau to the Sangre de Cristos with generally one-tenth to two- tenths of liquid expected. Two to four inches of snow are likely in The Chuska, Tusas, Jemez and Sangre de Cristo Mountains with around 6 inches possible in the higher peaks of the Tusas and Sangre de Cristos. The main impact from the storm system moving across northern NM today will be strong to very strong southwest to west winds. Winds advisories and high wind warnings are posted for much of northern and central NM from late this morning through late tonight. Sustained winds across much of western NM will be 30 to 40 mph with gusts 50 to 60 mph late this morning through early evening. In northeast NM, sustained west winds will be 30 to 40 mph with gusts 35 to 55 mph early this afternoon through late tonight. From the Sandia Mountains southward to the Sacramento Mountains and eastward across the plains to the TX border, sustained west winds will be 35 to 50 mph with gusts 55 to 65 mph early this afternoon through late tonight. Red flag warnings are in effect for FWZ104 and FWZ108 from noon today through early this evening. Despite very strong winds to the west in FWZ103 and FWZ107, relative humidity will increase with the approaching storm late this morning and preclude the threat of critical fire weather conditions. A backdoor cold front will move across the eastern plains this evening, and by that time relative humidity will increase above critical levels, as low level moisture associated with the upper level low in northwest TX/far western OK moves in from the north and west. Northwest winds behind the front in eastern portions of FWZ104 will range between 25 and 40 mph with gusts 40 to 55 mph from mid evening tonight through mid morning Monday. Minimum relative humidity will stay above 15 percent across most of the region Monday, except for a few hours in the late afternoon across far southern portions of FWZ107 and far southern portions of FWZ108. Northwest winds will be 15 to 25 mph Monday afternoon across the higher elevations of western NM and in the Central Highlands. Breezy to windy conditions are expected throughout the day on Monday across the far eastern plains with northwest winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 45 mph. No critical fire weather conditions are anticipated Monday given the higher relative humidity. Ventilation rates Monday will be generally good to excellent with fair to good ventilation in the north central and northwest mountains. A ridge of high pressure aloft will build across NM Tuesday into Wednesday with drier condtions expected. Minimum relative humidity Tuesday will range from 5 to 10 percent south of I-40 and 10 to 25 north of I-40. West winds will be mainly light, but could peak near 20 mph in FWZ107 in the afternoon, where a few hours of critical fire weather conditions will be possible. Relative humidity will edge upward on Wednesday and winds will become lighter, yielding few fire weather concerns. Ventilation rates Tuesday will be fair to good and on Wednesday will be good to excellent. A weak upper level trough will move into AZ on Thursday causing winds to increase east of the central mountains with critical fire weather conditions possible across portions of the eastern plains. A Pacific cold front will move into western NM Friday. Mild and breezy to low-end windy conditions across the eastern plains Friday afternoon will result in a higher chance for critical fire weather conditions. Ventilation rates Thursday and Friday will be good to excellent. Breezy west winds on Saturday and continued dry conditions will pose the possibility of more critical fire weather condtions for the eastern plains during the afternoon and early evening hours. 28 && AVIATION... 06Z TAF CYCLE A storm system will move rapidly across northern NM Sunday. MVFR ceilings and visibilities in light rain and snow will move into western and north central NM during late morning Sunday and continue through mid evening Sunday. Mountain obscurations will exist for most of the day Sunday into Sunday evening across western and north central NM. Strong to very strong winds associated with this storm system are expected late morning Sunday through Sunday evening. Southwest to west winds will increase to 15 to 25 knots with gusts to 40 knots by mid morning and then further increase in the afternoon. Winds during Sunday afternoon and evening will range from 30 to 45 knots with gusts up to 55 knots. Blowing dust will reduce visibility in the afternoon across areas in central and eastern NM. East central and southeast NM may see visibility drop below 3SM at times Sunday afternoon and evening. 28 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
