Warm, Windy Weather Through Thursday
Associated Press
New Mexico will have warm, dry, windy weather through Thursday, causing prime conditions for wildfires, the National Weather Service said.
The weather bureau posted a red flag warning for the state between 9 a.m. and 11 p.m. today.
A red flag warning is usually posted if wind is stronger than 15 mph, humidity is less than 25 percent and temperatures top 75 degrees.
Gusts could reach 50 mph by this afternoon and could be higher Thursday, especially across the east and south.
Blowing dust could cut visibility to less than 3 miles in those areas today and Thursday.
Wind should wane Friday and Saturday.
Low temperatures before dawn today ranged from the mid-30s over the parts of the high country to the 60s across portions of the lowlands.
High temperatures Tuesday ranged from 63 degrees at Angel Fire to 91 degrees at Carlsbad.
