   ...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

   Locally elevated conditions are possible in the lowlands of
   south-central New Mexico under diminishing southwest flow aloft amid
   residual surface dryness. Otherwise, the previous forecast (see
   below) remains on track.

   .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0151 AM CDT Thu Apr 03 2025/

   ...Synopsis...
   Downstream of a highly amplified large-scale trough centered on the
   Southwest, a belt of strong south-southwesterly flow and embedded
   midlevel speed maximum will shift eastward into TX. While a weak
   surface cyclone and related breezy conditions will persist over
   parts of southern/central NM, the meridional orientation and
   displacement of the midlevel jet will limit fire-weather concerns
   compared to previous days.
