What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this red flag warning 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 red flag warning went out at Jun 6, 3:16 AM MDT, 41 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 6, 3:16 AM MDT, 41 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Albuquerque NM
316 AM MDT Sat Jun 6 2020

.SYNOPSIS...
Light showers with a few embedded thunderstorms will continue through
the morning hours before focusing across north central New Mexico by
mid day. Additional showers and thunderstorms will be possible this
afternoon just east of the central mountain chain. Strong south to
southwest winds will be the rule area wide today, and any light
precipitation may enhanced wind gusts through the afternoon.
Widespread critical fire weather conditions are also likely along and
west of the Rio Grande Valley due to low humidity values combined
with the strong winds. Breezy to windy conditions are expected again
on Sunday and Monday, with critical fire weather conditions likely
across much of northern and central New Mexico. Otherwise, drier
conditions will prevail after today, with temperatures slowly
dropping back below normal through Tuesday. Thereafter, temperatures
will start to bounce back above normal for the end of the work week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY)...
Ongoing active weather with light showers and isolated short lived
thunderstorms tracking rapidly northward over the CWA. Some nasty
wind gusts associated with some of the convection, although suspect
some of the gusts may also be related to the strong south wind
profile detected by KABX with 45kts right off the surface although
the wind has diminished in the closest 2K feet to the surface during
the last hour. Have gone ahead and upgraded the high wind watch for
portions of ne NM to a high wind warning, as well as painted a wind
advisory for much of the north and west. Timing is an issue for the
wind highlights as the stronger winds aloft pass overhead during the
day, with some far western areas likely seeing the stronger winds
earlier, and the central and northeast, midday and later. Models
continue to indicate drier air will push into the far west later
today with showers and storms becoming focused over the north
central and along/east of the central mt chain this afternoon.
Potential for gusty and erratic winds with any shower or storm also
continues although the SPC Day 1 outlook clips north central NM with
the marginal threat today. Sunday will be drier and cooler west and
central but slightly warmer east due to southwest winds, which at
this time are forecast to meet wind advisory criteria, over a good
chunk of northeast NM.

LONG TERM...(SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)...
A quiet night is expected Sunday night. Then, dry and breezy
conditions will be the rule Monday and even Monday night as an upper
level trough crosses the central/southern Rockies. An associated
front will push through the state from northwest to southeast, likely
increasing wind speeds along and directly behind it as it does so.
Temperatures will drop below normal Monday across the west and all
areas on Tuesday in the wake of the cold front. On Wednesday, the
upper level high will begin building back over MX and TX, then
further northward over NM on Thursday. Less wind will be expected
overall, though weak southerly flow may draw up moisture from the
south, potentially increasing shower and thunderstorm chances by
late Thursday or Friday. The GFS also continues to advertise a back
door cold front moving into the area late Thursday, though other
models are lacking the intrusion. As always, it will depend on the
position and strength of the high to see if and how much moisture is
able to advect into NM. Stay tuned.

99/34

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Showers and storms moving north over central and western NM at this
time were producing some very gusty and erratic winds and only light
amounts of rain. No changes to the red flag warning for today, as
drier air is expected to overcome this mornings higher humidities by
this afternoon and sustained winds rapidly increase. Dry lightning
will be possible, as the drier air pushes into central NM later
today and this evening, although humidities aren't quite low enough
to trigger an expansion of today's red flag warning.

Sunday into Monday will see widespread critical fire weather
conditions as a broad upper trough swings through the central
Rockies. NM will be on the southerly and windy and dry side both
days, so went ahead and upgraded the Sunday watch to a Red Flag
Warning. Also issued a Fire Weather Watch for Monday. High
temperatures on Monday will be cooling however, and about 2 to 9
degrees below normal over the west and central, while remaining up
to 10 degrees warmer than average east.

The cooling trend continues Tuesday as a cold front drops into NM.
Thereafter a warming trend occurs under a building ridge although a
cold front late this week could spark a revival of showers and
storms over eastern NM.

&&

.AVIATION...
06Z TAF CYCLE
Scattered showers and tstms will continue to track to the north over
western and central NM through 15Z before shifting to north central
NM and east of the central mt chain. Some of the cells will produce
wind gusts to around 45kt and brief mt obscurations. Strong swly
winds to develop with gusts to around 45kts as precipitation shifts
to north central NM and drier air pushes into western and central NM.
