Area forecast discussion, Jul 9, 2:36 PM MDT, 2 hours 38 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM 236 PM MDT MON JUL 9 2007 .DISCUSSION...ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING HOURS. UPR LVL PATTERN IS BEGINNING TO SHIFT A LITTLE. THIS WILL ALLOW A SERIES OF WEAK FRONTS/IMPULSES TO DRIVE INTO THE EASTERN PLAINS RESULTING IN AN INCREASE OF SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY EACH AFTERNOON THROUGH THE MID WEEK. BY MID WEEK AS THE UPR LVL RDG GETS SQUASHED BETWEEN A TROF TO THE NORTHEAST AN A DEVELOPING UPR LVL LOW TO THE SOUTHWEST. THIS WILL TEND TO WEAKEN THE RDG JUST A BIT AND ALLOW AN UPSWING IN CONVECTION THROUGH MID WEEK. THE UPR LVL RDG FORECAST TO STRENGTHEN A BIT AN CENTER ITS AXIS ACROSS THE STATE BY THE LATE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND. HOWEVER...DUE TO THE INCREASES OF MOISTURE INTO THE WEST SHOULD SEE AN UPSWING IN CONVECTION STATEWIDE FOR THE LATER HALF OF THE WEEK.
