.PREV DISCUSSION... (ISSUED 318 PM CST FRI MAR 31 2006)

SHORT TERM...
QUASI-STATIONARY BOUNDARY NOTED IN MESOANALYSES EXTENDING FROM A
WEAK SURFACE LOW OVER DAVIS MOUNTAINS NORTHEAST ACROSS THE
STOCKTON PLATEAU AND THEN EAST ACROSS THE NORTHERN EDWARDS
PLATEAU. RADAR IS INDICATING SOME CONVECTION OVER THE SERRANIAS
DEL BURRO WITH LITTLE ELSE NORTH OF THE RIO BRAVO DEL NORTE.
WEAKLY CAPPED CONDITIONS OVER THE LOWER TRANS PECOS MAY ERODE
FURTHER AS A WEAK SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER NORTHERN CHIHUAHUA
TRANSLATES EAST. WHAT CONVECTION THAT DOES MANAGE TO DEVELOP
SHOULD DIE OFF WITHIN A FEW HOURS OF SUNSET AS PBL STABILIZATION
OCCURS.

THE WEAK BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO DISSIPATE LATER THIS EVENING AS
SURFACE PRESSURE FALLS RENEW OVER THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN HIGH
PLAINS. THIS WILL RESULT IN A NORTHWARD SURGE OF GULF MOISTURE
OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA OVERNIGHT. BY THE END
OF THE SHORT TERM PERIOD A DRYLINE SHOULD BECOME ESTABLISHED
ROUGHLY ALONG THE 103RD MERIDIAN. GULF STRATUS AND ATTENDANT MVFR
CIGS SHOULD BE CONFINED TO THE FAR EASTERN ZONES AS CONSIDERABLE
CIRRUS WILL MODULATE STRATUS FORMATION FARTHER WEST.

THE GFS AND NAM WERE INITIALIZED WELL AND ARE CLOSE TO ONE ANOTHER
IN THEIR SOLUTIONS. CONSEQUENTLY THE SHORT TERM PORTION OF THE
FORECAST GRIDS REFLECT A BLEND OF BOTH MODELS TEMPERED BY NUMERICAL
GUIDANCE.

LONG TERM...
FOCUS SHIFTS TO EASTERN ZONES SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS
THE DRYLINE MIXES TO ROUGHLY A GAIL...GARDEN CITY...TO SANDERSON
LINE BY MID AFTERNOON. EAST OF THIS BOUNDARY...MUCAPES OF 1500 TO
2000 J/KG WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG WITH RESPECTABLE MID
TROPOSPHERIC LAPSE RATES AND FAVORABLE KINEMATICS. INGREDIENTS
ARE SUFFICIENT FOR SEVERE CONVECTION. STORM RELATIVE LOW AND MID
LEVEL FLOW ARE SUPPORTIVE OF SUPERCELLS...BUT FAIRLY HIGH LFCS
ARGUE AGAINST A SIGNIFICANT TORNADIC THREAT. AM SOMEWHAT
CONCERNED ABOUT WHETHER CONVECTION WILL OVERCOME INCREASING CIN
AS THE EML INCREASES... BUT THINK THAT CONVERGENCE ALONG THE
DRYLINE ALONG WITH HEATING WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO DRIVE MIXED
PARCELS TO THEIR LFCS. ACROSS THE WEST...NAM BUFR SOUNDINGS
INDICATIVE OF AN INVERTED-V PROFILE. AT THIS TIME HAVE NOT
INCLUDED SENSIBLE WEATHER AS THERE IS SOME QUESTION AS TO WHETHER
PARCELS CAN REACH THEIR LFCS. IF THIS CHANGES...THEN WE MAY HAVE
A THREAT OF DRY THUNDERSTORMS OVER FAR WESTERN ZONES. FIRE
WEATHER CONCERNS WILL ALSO INCREASE AS 20 FOOT WINDS INCREASE AND
RH VALUES FALL DURING THE AFTERNOON.

CONVECTION SHOULD SCOOT OFF TO THE EAST SATURDAY NIGHT. THE
DRYLINE WILL ATTEMPT TO RETREAT WEST OVERNIGHT BUT SHOULD BE
CHECKED LATER IN THE EVENING AS THE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT
BECOMES MERIDONAL. CONSEQUENTLY ANY CHANCE OF PRECIP SHOULD BE
CONFINED TO FAR EASTERN ZONES SATURDAY EVENING. SUNDAY LOOKS
BREEZY AND WARM AS WESTERLY FLOW PREVAILS AREAWIDE. LOW RH VALUES
AND GUSTY WINDS WILL HEIGHTEN FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS ACROSS THE
GUADALUPES SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THEREAFTER...WE SHOULD SEE WINDS
BACK AND LOW LEVEL MOISTURE INCREASE A BIT AHEAD OF ANOTHER
SHORTWAVE TROUGH APPROACHING THE AREA MONDAY. HAVE NOT INCLUDED
SENSIBLE WEATHER AS THE EML LOOKS TOO TOUGH TO BEAT. A BETTER
CHANCE OF PRECIP IS EXPECTED THURSDAY AS THE COMBINATION OF
MOISTURE...INSTABILITY...SHEAR...AND A DRYLINE COME INTO PLAY.
RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS LIKE THE BEST DYNAMICAL FORCING WILL REMAIN TO
OUR NORTH...HOWEVER...ENOUGH UNCERTAINTY EXISTS TO INCLUDE POPS
THURSDAY.

TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN AT OR A BIT ABOVE NORMAL OVER
THE NEXT WEEK. GUIDANCE NUMBERS LOOK TOUGH TO BEAT OWING TO
BETTER THAN AVERAGE AGREEMENT ACROSS ENSEMBLE MEMBERS...AND HAVE
STAYED CLOSE TO GUIDANCE MAXIMA FOR HIGHS WHILE A BLEND OF THE
OPERATIONAL GFS AND GFS ENSEMBLE MEANS LOOK GOOD FOR OVERNIGHT
LOWS. ALL OTHER GRIDS ARE WEIGHTED HEAVILY TOWARD THE OPERATIONAL
GFS.

FIRE WEATHER...
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED SATURDAY AFTERNOON
AND AGAIN ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON ACROSS THE GUADALUPE MOUNTAINS AND
ADJACENT PLAINS. DEEP LAYER MIXING...GRADIENT FLOW...AND DOWNWARD
MOMENTUM TRANSFER WILL SEND 20 FOOT WINDS UP TO NEAR OR PERHAPS A
BIT ABOVE 20 MPH WHILE MIN RH VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO BOTTOM OUT
NEAR 15 PERCENT EACH AFTERNOON. AT THIS TIME IT LOOKS MARGINAL
FOR CONDITIONS EXCEEDING RED FLAG CRITERIA OVER A LONG ENOUGH
PERIOD OF TIME SATURDAY FOR A FIRE WEATHER WATCH. CONDITIONS MAY
MEET OR EXCEED THE TEMPORAL CRITERION SUNDAY AFTERNOON...BUT
OWING TO UNCERTAINTY WILL HOLD OFF ON A FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR
NOW.
