AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIDLAND/ODESSA TX
1024 PM CST WED DEC 23 2009

.UPDATE...
UPDATE TO UPGRADE NORTHERN COUNTIES TO A WINTER STORM WARNING...
AND ADJACENT COUNTIES TO A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY. ALSO CAN CELLED
THE HIGH WIND WARNING.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
POTENT UPPER LOW OVER SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO THIS EVENING WAS JOGGING
MORE TO THE SOUTHEAST...LIKELY DUE TO A STRONG VORTICITY MAXIMA
SWINGING SOUTHEASTWARD AROUND THE BACKSIDE OF THE SYSTEM.  COLDER
AIR WAS DROPPING SOUTH OVER EASTERN NEW MEXICO AND THE TEXAS
PANHANDLE THIS EVENING BEHIND A POLAR FRONT.  SINCE THE UPPER LOW
WILL TAKE MORE OF A SOUTHERLY TRACK THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT...AND
TEMPERATURES SHOULD BECOME SUFFICIENTLY COLD SOUTH INTO THE PERMIAN
BASIN...THINK SNOW WILL ACCUMULATE FURTHER SOUTH THAN PREVIOUS
FORECASTS INDICATED.  SNOWFALL WAS REPORTED OVER PORTIONS OF
SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO...WHILE RADAR IMAGERY INDICATED FURTHER
DEVELOPMENT OF WRAPAROUND SNOW OVER EASTERN NEW MEXICO.

THE LATEST WATER VAPOR AND IR SATELLITE IMAGERY WERE VERIFYING THE
FURTHER SOUTHWARD TRACK INDICATED ON THE LATEST WRF/GFS/RUC.  A FEW
AREAS...PARTICULARLY OVER THE WESTERN LOW ROLLING PLAINS...MAY SEE A
PERIOD OF SLEET...HOWEVER DO NOT EXPECT THIS TO LAST LONG AND EXPECT
THE SWITCHOVER TO SNOW TO OCCUR MORE RAPIDLY THAN NOT.  THINK THERE
WILL BE ENOUGH WRAPAROUND MOISTURE FOR SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS OF 3
TO 5 INCHES FROM CENTRAL AND NORTHERN LEA COUNTY IN NEW MEXICO...
EASTWARD ACROSS GAINES...DAWSON...BORDEN...SCURRY...HOWARD AND
MITCHELL.  ALL BUT THE LATTER FOUR COUNTIES WILL LIKELY SEE LIGHT TO
MODERATE SNOWFALL OVERNIGHT...WHILE THE REST WILL SEE THE BEST
SNOWFALL LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY THURSDAY.  LESSER AMOUNTS OF 1 TO 3
INCHES WILL OCCUR ADJACENT TO THESE COUNTIES...SO HAVE ADDED
SOUTHERN LEA...ANDREWS...MARTIN...ECTOR...MIDLAND AND GLASSCOCK TO
THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY.  THINK THE SNOWFALL WILL BEGIN TO TAPER
OFF FROM WEST TO EAST LATE TONIGHT...SO WILL PUT THE WARNING AND
ADVISORY OUT UNTIL 24/15Z.  LEFT EDDY COUNTY AND THE GUADALUPE
MOUNTAINS IN THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY DURING THIS TIME ALSO.  NOT
SURE HOW FAR SOUTHWESTWARD THE WRAPAROUND SNOW WILL MAKE IT...BUT
THINK THE DAVIS MOUNTAINS WILL BE TOO FAR SOUTHWEST...AND WILL DROP
THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY THERE.

ALTHOUGH WE HAD GUSTS AROUND 70 MPH AT MOUNT LOCKE WITHIN THE LAST
HOUR OR SO...THINK THE STRONGER WINDS OVER BOTH THE GUADALUPE AND
DAVIS MOUNTAINS HAVE PUSHED EASTWARD AND WILL NOT BE A THREAT ANY
LONGER.  THEREFORE...WILL CANCEL THE HIGH WIND WARNING THAT WAS IN
EFFECT UNTIL 24/12Z.  UPDATED FORECAST WILL FOLLOW SHORTLY.
