AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
254 PM MST SUN DEC 9 2007

.DISCUSSION...UPPER LOW OFF NORTHERN BAJA COAST WILL CONTINUE TO
HAVE A PROFOUND EFFECT ON OUR WEATHER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. FOR
NOW...THE MAIN ISSUES ARE CENTERED AROUND THE PERIOD EXTENDING
FROM LATE TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY TUESDAY MORNING. MOISTURE
ADVECTION INCREASES FROM THE SOUTH DURING THIS PERIOD. THIS
MOISTURE IN COMBINATION WITH COLD AIRMASS OVER THE REGION AND
DYNAMIC FORCING FROM UPPER LOW WILL LEAD TO WIDESPREAD
PRECIPITATION AROUND THE STATE.

OVER THE EASTERN PLAINS THE FORECAST IS QUITE TRICKY. ASSUMING
LITTLE CHANGES TAKE PLACE TO THE AIRMASS...THE PREVIOUSLY
INHERITED TREND OF WIDESPREAD FREEZING PRECIPITATION SHOULD HOLD
TRUE. THIS IS IN LINE WITH FORECASTS FROM ADJACENT TEXAS WFOS.
HOWEVER...MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO TRY AND WARM UP THINGS ON
MONDAY TO A MORE SIGNIFICANT DEGREE THAN EARLIER EXPECTED. GIVEN
THE MODEL TENDENCIES TO UNDERESTIMATE COLD AIRMASSES LIKE
THESE...AND A PREFERENCE TO ERR ON THE SIDE OF CAUTION...HAVE
OPTED TO CONVERT PREVIOUS WINTER STORM WATCH OVER THESE AREAS TO A
WARNING. FUTURE SHIFTS WILL NEED TO MONITOR TEMPERATURE TRENDS
VERY CLOSELY THE NEXT 12-24 HOURS TO SEE IF THE LATEST WARMING
TREND PER THE MODELS COMES TO FRUITION. ACROSS THE NORTHERN
MOUNTAINS AND SANGRE DE CRISTOS...EXPECTED SNOWFALL JUSTIFIES AS
WARNING AS WELL. HAVE ALSO GONE WITH A SNOW ADVISORY ACROSS OUR
SOUTHERN ZONES IN RESPONSE TO EXPECTED QPF ACROSS THE AREAS. THIS
MATCHES UP WELL WITH PREVIOUS ADVISORIES ISSUED BY WFO EPZ.

NEXT SHOT OF COLD AIR PLUNGES INTO THE LONGWAVE TROUGH ON TUESDAY
AND THIS SHOULD SUPPORT CONTINUED SNOW OVER THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS
THROUGH ALL OF TUESDAY. FUTURE SHIFTS WILL HAVE TO CONSIDER
EXTENDING WARNING FOR THOSE AREAS. MODERATING WEATHER CONDITIONS
ARE ON TAP AFTER MIDWEEK WITH A NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. A WEAK FRONT
SLIDES THROUGH ON FRIDAY BUT LOOKS TO BE PRIMARILY DRY AT THIS TIME.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF NORTH AND CENTRAL

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

A WINTER STORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT FROM LATE TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY
NIGHT FOR HEAVY SNOW POTENTIAL IN THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS AND
NORTHEAST HIGHLANDS...AND FOR FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET POTENTIAL ON
PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN PLAINS. DENSE FOG MAY ALSO BE A PROBLEM ON
THE PLAINS. ALTHOUGH SNOW AND FREEZING DRIZZLE MAY BEGIN AS EARLY
AS TONIGHT...SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED UNTIL
MONDAY.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY

A WINTER STORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT FROM LATE TONIGHT THROUGH
MONDAY NIGHT FOR HEAVY SNOW POTENTIAL IN THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS AND
NORTHEAST HIGHLANDS...AND FOR FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET POTENTIAL ON
THE EASTERN PLAINS. NEAR THE MOUNTAINS...THE HEAVIEST SNOW IS EXPECTED TO FALL
MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...WITH 3 TO 5 INCHES BELOW 7500 FEET AND 4
TO 12 INCHES ABOVE 7500 FEET. IN CHAVES...ROOSEVELT...CURRY...QUAY...DE
BACA...GUADALUPE...EASTERN SAN MIGUEL...HARDING AND UNION
COUNTIES THE HEAVIEST FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET ARE ALSO EXPECTED MONDAY
AND MONDAY NIGHT...AS THE POLAR JET STREAM ADVECTS A LAYER OF
MOIST AND RELATIVELY WARM AIR ALOFT OVER A SHALLOW POOL OF
SUBFREEZING AIR NEAR THE SURFACE. SOME UNCERTAINTY EXISTS ABOUT HOW
DEEP THIS SHALLOW POOL OF COLD AIR WILL BECOME...AND THAT WILL
INFLUENCE HOW FAR WEST THE LEADING EDGE OF THE FREEZING RAIN WILL
DEVELOP. LOCATIONS ALONG THE TEXAS BORDER HAVE THE BEST CHANCE OF
RECEIVING SIGNIFICANT ICE ACCUMULATION DUE TO FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET.
GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO ONE QUARTER INCH OF ICE ACCUMULATION IS
POSSIBLE. ICE OF THIS SEVERITY COULD TOPPLE POWER LINES AND OTHER
LIGHT WEIGHT STRUCTURES...AND ALSO MAKE DRIVING HAZARDOUS. DENSE
FOG MAY ALSO BE A PROBLEM ON THE PLAINS. THE WINTER PRECIPITATION COULD
LINGER THROUGH TUESDAY OR TUESDAY NIGHT AND MAY REQUIRE AN
EXTENSION OF ANY WATCHES OR WARNINGS THAT ARE IN EFFECT.

WEATHER CAN CHANGE VERY RAPIDLY. ALWAYS USE THE LATEST FORECASTS...
WATCHES AND WARNINGS FOR PLANNING PURPOSES.
