WIDESPREAD ADVY LEVEL WINDS.  FOCUS THEN SHIFTS TO THE STRONG COLD
FRONT MONDAY NIGHT. MODELS CONTINUE TO ADVERTISE SUSTAINED WINDS OF
35+ MPH ACROSS THE NORTHEAST PLAINS. THIS WILL BE A SIGNIFICANT WIND
EVENT FOR THE NORTHEAST AND WILL ISSUE A HIGH WIND WATCH FOR MONDAY
NIGHT. OTHER THAN WINDS...NO OTHER BIG CONCERNS.  TEMPS WILL BE

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...136 PM MST SUN NOV 13 2005...TIMING AND STRENGTH
OF COLD FRONTS THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERN THROUGH THE FORECAST
PERIOD.

THE FIRST OF SEVERAL FRONTS ALREADY MOVED S ACROSS THE ERN PLAINS
LAST NIGHT AND HAS RESULTED IN NOTICEABLY COOLER TEMPERATURES IN
THE E THIS PM AS COMPARED TO SAT. A WEAK E WIND THIS MORNING INTO
THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY WILL PROBABLY MEAN HIGH TEMPS TOP OUT A
COUPLE OF DEGREES LOWER TODAY. ONLY SOME HIGH CLOUDS ACROSS THE N
OTHERWISE IT WAS SUNNY WITH MUCH LESS WIND TODAY. A CLEAR OR MOSTLY
CLEAR SKY ON TAP TONIGHT WITH COOL TO CHILLY TEMPS. SOME LEE OF
THE MOUNTAIN BREEZES WILL PROBABLY DEVELOP DURING THE NIGHT...
ESPECIALLY ALONG THE E SLOPES OF THE SANGRES.

THE WIND WILL BE THE MAIN STORY FOR MON AS A STORM SWINGS THROUGH
THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN STATES. IT WILL BE POSITIONED WELL TO OUR N...
BUT THE GRADIENT ALOFT WILL TIGHTEN AS WELL AS AT THE SURFACE.
WINDS AT MOUNTAIN TOP LEVEL OVER THE SANGRES AND SANDIAS EXPECTED
TO BE 30 TO 40 OR MORE KNOTS. A GOOD PORTION OF THESE WINDS WILL
TRY AND MIX DOWN TO THE SURFACE. PLENTY OF SUN SHOULD HELP. THUS A
CONCERN FOR ADVISORY TYPE WINDS MON OVER ROUGHLY THE NE QUARTER OF
THE STATE...BUT ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE ERN HIGH PLAINS...NAMELY
ZONES 11 AND SOUTHERN 5. WILL HOLD OFF ON ISSUING AN ADVISORY AND
LET THE ILLUSTRIOUS NIGHT CREW MAKE THE CALL. TEMPS TO REBOUND
SHARPLY IN THE E MON.

THE SECOND IN A SERIES OF COLD FRONTS WILL BACK INTO THE E MON
NIGHT WITH SOME LOW CLOUD DEVELOPMENT BEHIND THE FRONT. THERE MAY
ALSO BE A LIGHT RAIN OR SNOW SHOWER IN THE FAR NE AND THIS COVERED
FINE IN THE CURRENT ZONE PACKAGE. PLENTY OF COLD AIR BEHIND THIS
FRONT AS WELL WITH 700 MB TEMPS MOSTLY BELOW ZERO BY TUE EVE ACROSS
THE CWA AND 850 MB TEMPS BELOW ZERO IN THE NE. UP TO 30 DEGREES OF
COOLING POSSIBLE IN THE FAR NE ON TUE...WITH 15 TO 25 DEGREE LOWER
TEMPS ELSEWHERE IN THE E. NOT AS KEEN ON THE E CANYON WINDS TUE EVE
INTO THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY. MAIN PUSH OF COOL AIR S AND NOT W. THUS
WILL KEEP OUT OF FORECAST FOR NOW. FIRST HARD FREEZE OF THE SEASON
LIKELY TUE NIGHT FOR PORTIONS OF THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY...EC PLAINS
AND CHAVES COUNTY.

DRY FORECAST FROM WED THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND WITH NW FLOW ALOFT.
THIRD FRONT FOR THU AND THU NIGHT LOOKS A BIT MORE POTENT THAN IT
DID YESTERDAY AT THIS TIME...BUT GUIDANCE TEMPS CONTINUE TO INSIST
LITTLE OR NO COOLING BEHIND THIS FRONT. SO WILL NOT MAKE MUCH
CHANGE TO CURRENT FORECAST. A WEAK REINFORCEMENT OF COOLER AIR
POSSIBLE NEXT WEEKEND. FLOW ALOFT MAY GRADUALLY SHIFT FROM NW TO N
LATE IN THE FORECAST PERIOD. CHJ
