Winds will shift out of the west today and become breezy 15 to 25 mph. Gustier winds will be possible to our west along with blowing dust at times. Warming temperatures and low relative humidity has sparked a Red Flag Warning for southeast New Mexico, the Upper Trans Pecos, the Van Horn corridor and the Davis Mountains. Any fires that develop will have the ability to quickly spread.
A weak front will stay to our north Friday and Saturday allowing us to stay warm in the upper 70s, with slightly cooler temperatures in the northernmost areas.
A much stronger front will move through late Saturday into the early morning hours Sunday bringing much colder air. Temperatures will drop into the 50s Sunday and will remain in the 50s for early next week.
