This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of northern and
central New Mexico.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

No hazardous weather is expected.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday

Strong to severe winds are expected across much of northern and
central New Mexico on Monday as a potent disturbance aloft and an
attendant cold front sweep into the state. The strongest winds will
be found along portions of the central mountain chain and into the
east central high plains of New Mexico where occasional gusts may
reach 55 to 60 mph.

Stronger winds will redevelop over northeastern New Mexico Wednesday
afternoon where low humidity is forecast. This could lead to a few
hours of critical fire weather in the northeastern plains of the
state.

Another round of strong to severe winds are forecast for Thursday. In
a similar fashion, areas along and east of the central mountain chain
will once again be susceptible to the highest wind speeds Thursday
afternoon.
