1228 AM CST WED DEC 26 2007

.AVIATION...
WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN PROBLEM FOR THE TAF SITES AS A STRONG COLD
FRONT CAUSES WINDS TO SHIFT FROM THE WEST TO THE NORTH AND GUST IN
EXCESS OF 20KTS. ISOLATED SNOW SHOWERS MAY AFFECT SOUTHEASTERN NEW
MEXICO BUT ARE EXPECTED TO BE VERY SHORT LIVED AND SHOULD NOT HAVE
TOO MUCH OF AN IMPACT. THE CURRENT ACTIVITY AT CNM SHOULD END
SHORTLY WITH THE MVFR CONDITIONS CURRENTLY SEEN INCREASING BACK TO
VFR. FLURRY ACTIVITY MAY CONTINUE ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN NEW MEXICO
THROUGH SUNRISE BUT WIDESPREAD MVFR CONDITIONS ARE NOT
ANTICIPATED. WINDS WILL DIMINISH THIS AFTERNOON WITH PLEASANT
CONDITIONS EXPECTED THE LAST HALF OF THE TAF PERIOD.

AVIATION...
A STRONG SURFACE COLD FRONT EXTENDS FROM THE TEXAS/NEW MEXICO
BORDER SOUTH OF CARLSBAD EAST TO ABOUT 25 NM NORTH OF KMAF TO
JUST NORTH OF KSNK. THIS FRONT IS TRANSLATING SOUTH AT AROUND 20
KNOTS AND SHOULD PASS ACROSS THE KMAF AND KINK TERMINALS SHORTLY...
WITH PASSAGE AT KPEQ AND KFST EXPECTED BY 07Z AND 08Z...
RESPECTIVELY. A SMALL BUT FAIRLY POTENT UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE
ROTATING OVER THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES WILL MOVE EAST QUICKLY
OVERNIGHT. LIFT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM AND SOME MID LEVEL
MOISTURE WILL RESULT IN AREAS OF MVFR CIGS BEHIND THE FRONT. THERE
MAY BE ENOUGH LIFT AND MOISTURE FOR SOME WIDELY SCATTERED SNOW/RAIN
SHOWERS AT KCNM BETWEEN 06Z AND 10Z...BUT BECAUSE THE LOWER
ATMOSPHERE IS DRY...NOT EXPECTING MUCH WITH THIS. NORTH TO
NORTHWEST WINDS WILL STAY UP FOR SEVERAL HOURS AFTER FRONTAL
PASSAGE...WITH GUSTS NEAR 25 MPH EXPECTED ACROSS ALL TERMINALS
THROUGH DAYBREAK. DURING THE DAY WEDNESDAY...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
WILL MOVE EAST QUICKLY...AND LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL WEAKEN AND BACK
TO A SOUTHWESTERLY DIRECTION BY SUNSET.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1028 PM CST TUE DEC 25 2007/
