URGENT - WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service El Paso Tx/Santa Teresa NM
1156 AM MDT Wed Apr 11 2018

...Very strong winds, blowing dust, and possible wind damage 
expected across the Borderland on Thursday, Thursday night, and 
Friday morning...

.A very vigorous upper-level storm system will approach and  
sweep across the Borderland Thursday and Friday. This system will
combine with warm temperatures, deep mixing, strong winds aloft, 
and very tight pressure gradients to produce the strongest winds 
of the year. 

By late morning winds will increase to 25 to 35 mph, then by 
early afternoon we will see sustained winds of 35 to 45 mph with 
wind gusts to 65 mph possible. This will create hazardous driving 
conditions, widespread blowing dust, and possible building, tree,
and sign damage. Additionally there is potential for power 
outages and increased potential for brush and wildfires. These 
strong winds may actually increase in the evening and overnight 
hours with potential for damaging winds through the night. Winds 
should begin to slacken, but remain breezy by mid to late-morning 
Friday.

...Very strong winds, blowing dust, and possible wind damage
expected across the Borderland today, tonight, and Friday 
morning...

.A vigorous upper-level storm system will approach and sweep 
across the Borderland today and Friday. This system will combine 
with warm temperatures, deep mixing, strong winds aloft, and very 
tight pressure gradients to produce the strongest winds of the 
year.

By late morning winds will increase to 25 to 35 mph, then by
early afternoon we will see sustained winds of 35 to 45 mph with
wind gusts exceeding 60 mph possible. This will create hazardous 
driving conditions, widespread blowing dust, and possible 
building, tree, and sign damage. Additionally there is potential 
for power outages and increased potential for brush and wildfires.
Blowing dust may reduce visibilities to under one mile in some 
areas. These strong winds may actually increase in the evening and
overnight hours along eastern slopes with potential for damaging 
winds through the night. Winds should begin to slacken, but remain
breezy by late-morning Friday.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this high wind warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS El Paso, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high wind warning went out at Apr 11, 3:49 AM MDT, 8 hours 7 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 11, 3:49 AM MDT, 8 hours 7 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service El Paso Tx/Santa Teresa NM
349 AM MDT Wed Apr 11 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
The first 90 degree day of the year for El Paso should occur
today, possibly tying the record high of 92 with breezy
conditions expected in the afternoon. A strong Pacific low
pressure system will bring a significant wind event Thursday
afternoon and evening, with strong winds lasting overnight along
eastern slopes. Blowing dust will be a concern, especially in
southwestern New Mexico. Friday will still be windy though not
quite like Thursday, and much cooler air will invade the area. The
weekend will start out cool on Saturday but Sunday will be nice
and mild. Above normal temperatures return next week with a
moderate wind event in store for Tuesday.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Active weather is on the way, though not in a precip mode.
It should be relatively quiet today with possible record max
temps (15 degrees above normal) as southwest flow begins to affect
the Borderland. Weak lee side surface troughing will result in a
breezy afternoon. Then there's Thursday.

A strong short wave will approach from the west and induce a deep
(980 mb) surface low in northeast CO by late Thursday afternoon,
seriously tightening the surface gradients across our area. Winds
aloft will be strong with that momentum easily mixing down to the
surface as temps remain well above normal, which means plenty of
bouyancy to lift dust within that wind. Should be quite dusty
along the I-10 corridor west of Las Cruces. A high wind watch has
been issued for the area late Thursday morning into the evening.
The evening shift this evening will convert this into wind
advisories and high wind warnings for the appropriate areas
Thursday and may extend these products overnight along eastern
slopes as the trough passes by during that time with very strong
winds aloft. The wind potential continues well into Friday as the
trough actually deepens, slows down and closes off to our
northeast. This will drop max temps at least 20 degrees from
Thursday. The air mass will remain quite dry through this period,
so the cold pocket of air aloft Friday will be meaningless for us.

Okay, now for some better news. The upper low slowly pulls further
away Saturday but northerly flow will keep lowland temps in the
60s, though slightly warmer than Friday. Wind should not be a
factor on the weekend and Sunday will be quiet, pleasant and
mild. On Monday and Tuesday we repeat the process with above
normal temps and increasing wind as another short wave approaches,
but the heating and wind speeds will be down a notch from the
event at hand per current model runs.

Finally, our thanks go out to the San Angelo and Midland NWS
offices for backing us up the next two dayshifts. Sorry about the
wind event Thursday, Midland!

&&

.AVIATION...Valid 11/12Z-12/12Z... P6SM SKC-SCT250 through
period. Winds will start out south to southeast AOB 12KTS and
shift around to the west to southwest after 15Z and increase to
15-20G30KTS. Some patchy 3SM BLDU possible around KDMN and KELP
after 18Z.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Winds will be on the increase over the coming days ahead of a strong
storm system moving out of the Pacific and across the Great Basin.
Expect winds to shift around to the west to southwest today and
increase to 15 to 20 mph which will produce near critical
conditions. Extremely critical conditions are likely on Thursday
as the system gets closer and winds increase out of the southwest
at 25 to 40 mph and relative humidities remain under 15 percent.
Therefore a red flag warning is in effect. Winds will shift
around to the west to northwest on Friday with much cooler
temperatures but another day of critical conditions are expected.
Continued below normal temperatures likely Saturday but with less
wind followed by a warmup early next week with another couple of
critical fire weather days possible going into Monday and Tuesday.
