A High Wind Warning and Red Flag Warning have been issued for Las Vegas and surrounding areas starting tomorrow morning until 7:00 p.m. Southwest winds of 30-40 mph with gusts up to 65 mph are expected, along with relative humidity dropping to 10-20%. These conditions create extreme fire danger due to dry weather patterns.
Strong winds may bring down trees and power lines, leading to potential power outages. If you live in a PNM service area, sign up for outage alerts by texting #ALERT to 78766 from a mobile phone linked to your account.
Dangerous crosswinds and blowing dust will reduce visibility, making travel hazardous. Due to the critical fire conditions, outdoor activities should be avoided, and open burning is strictly prohibited within city limits.
Please take precautions and stay safe during these conditions.
