.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 116 AM MDT Tue Mar 21 2023

Rain and heavy, wet high elevation snow will continue over
northwest and north-central NM today. Rain and snow coverage is
more limited to the far northern and southwest mountains tonight
before a Pacific cold front brings more rain and snow to western
and northern areas Wednesday and high winds to the eastern plains
and the south- central mountains. Isolated showers linger north
and west Wednesday night into Thursday. Rain and snow showers are
forecast for the northwest half of the state Friday and for the
northern quarter Friday through Sunday.

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Wednesday)
Issued at 116 AM MDT Tue Mar 21 2023

Flow aloft will back and strengthen through Wednesday, as a potent
upper level low offshore of central CA moves inland then fills and
opens up as it moves into the Great Basin and Desert SW. Today will
be warmer than yesterday, but still well below normal across
central/western NM where clouds and showers will persist. The
latest HRRR, HREF and NAM all peg northwest NM with qpf today,
including the northern mountains where a Winter Storm Warning is in
effect. Otherwise, breezy to locally windy conditions are forecast
by afternoon as a lee side trough deepens. Will issue a Wind
Advisory for today for the south central mountains and southwest
Chaves County. In terms of precipitation overnight, orographic
forcing will be on the uptrend with winds aloft strengthening out of
the southwest, which will favor the southwest mountains and the
Tusas Mountains for continued precipitation. As the upper low opens
up and moves further inland Wednesday as an open trough, the
strongest winds aloft will pivot over the region and a lee side
trough will deepen to near 995mb. Wednesday still looks to be the
windiest day of the week and a High Wind Watch is in effect for much
of south central and eastern NM. A Wind Advisory will likely be
required for several zones surrounding the watch area. Patches of
blowing dust are likely across eastern NM by Wednesday afternoon.
Otherwise, precipitation will persist Wednesday with continued
orographic forcing, favoring the western mountains. Snow will
continue to pile up in the mountains and, especially over the peaks
and along higher southwest/west facing slopes. A Winter Storm
Warning will continue for the northern mountains and the Chuska
Mountains through Wednesday.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Wednesday night through Monday)
Issued at 116 AM MDT Tue Mar 21 2023

Orographic snow continues in the northern and western mountains
behind a Pacific cold front. Colder air also makes its way east
through state along with brisk winds. Trough axis takes its sweet
time propagating eastward through NM Thursday. Orographic snow
develops Thursday and once again favors the western and northern
mountains as very strong to high winds develop east. By Friday,
the trough axis finally moves through with showers once again most
prevalent west of the central mountain chain, but especially
northern mountains and northwest highlands. The moist westerly
flow aloft continues into the weekend with more showers for the
northern quarter of the state Saturday night through Monday. GFS
and ECWMF agree that a stretch of dry weather is in the offing for
Tuesday and Wednesday.

&&

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1134 AM MDT Tue Mar 21 2023

Areas along and west of the Central Mountain Chain will remain
plagued in low clouds with areas of precipitation. As the
afternoon progresses, precipitation, largely in the form of snow,
will become more focused over the northwest and northern
mountains, with lesser precipitation over the lower elevations.
Precip will remain focused over the high terrain through Wednesday
morning, then precipitation should fill in across lower elevations
of northwest NM once again as a Pacific front moves in. MVFR to
IFR cigs will remain common through the period with mt
obscurations likely. Meanwhile, across eastern NM, mid and high
clouds will prevail with gusty winds. Wind gusts between 30 and
40kt will be common this afternoon, but stronger winds with gusts
upwards of 50-55kt are expected on Wednesday.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 116 AM MDT Tue Mar 21 2023

Winds are on the uptrend through Wednesday as an upper level
trough/low moves inland from offshore of central CA. Wednesday will
be the windiest day of the week and although humidity is forecast to
remain above 20 percent, winds will easily exceed critical threshold
across eastern NM where fine fuels may be receptive to the rapid
spread of fire. Will issue a Fire Weather Watch for the eastern
plains for Wednesday. Otherwise, good chances for wetting
precipitation will persist across the mountains of western and
northern NM through Wednesday. A trailing shortwave trough will move
across late Thursday night into Friday, bringing another round of
windy conditions with more chances for wetting precipitation once
again favoring the mountains of northern/western NM. An unsettled
weather pattern involving windy conditions and more chances for
wetting precipitation will persist through the weekend and into
early next week. Critical fire weather potential for the weekend and
into early next week will likely be confined to areas south of I-40
and east of I-25.
