AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
340 AM MDT SUN APR 24 2011

.DISCUSSION...
A VERY ACTIVE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEK IS IN STORE FOR THE LAND OF
ENCHANTMENT. AS PRECIPITATION CHANCES DWINDLE THROUGH TUESDAY...THE
WIND MACHINE WILL CRANK UP A NOTCH EACH DAY.

SPRINKLES HAVE CONTINUED THIS MORNING ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHERN
AND CENTRAL NM. A FEW SNOW SHOWERS OR FLURRIES HAVE ALSO OCCURRED
OVER THE HIGHEST ELEVATIONS...GENERALLY ABOVE 9500 FEET...AS
INDICATED BY AREA SNOTELS. AS THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH CONTINUES
TO ORGANIZE AND APPROACH THE STATE TODAY...SHOWERS AND TSTMS WILL
CONTINUE ACROSS THE NORTHWEST QUADRANT OR SO OF THE STATE. DRY
SUBCLOUD LAYERS COMBINED WITH INSTABILITY DUE TO THE APPROACHING
TROUGH MAY ALLOW FOR DRY TSTMS AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING. MODELS ARE INDICATING LIFTED INDICES NEAR -2 AND MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES AROUND 9 C/KM. SIMILARLY TO YESTERDAY...ANY
CONVECTION...WITH OR WITHOUT THUNDER...WILL HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF
PRODUCING GUSTY DOWNBURST WINDS...PERHAPS IN EXCESS OF 45 MPH.  THE
TROUGH AXIS WILL BISECT THE STATE AROUND MIDNIGHT...AND BY 6 AM
MON...THE BASE OF THE TROUGH WILL BE MOVING INTO TEXAS. THIS WILL
LARGELY DIMINISH PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE NORTH...THOUGH IT IS
LIKELY SOME SHOWERS WILL LINGER OVER THE MTNS.  THERE WILL ALSO BE A
BRIEF OPPORTUNITY FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE NORTHEAST
AS A BACK DOOR COLD FRONT NUDGES INTO THE AREA THIS EVENING.
HOWEVER...THE FRONT WILL QUICKLY BE SHUNTED EASTWARD AS THE TROUGH
SHIFTS EASTWARD.

NORTHWEST FLOW WILL PREVAIL ON MONDAY.  700 MB WINDS ARE NOT
TERRIBLY EXCITING...GENERALLY AROUND 30KT...HOWEVER...A 999MB
SURFACE LOW OVER EASTERN NM COMBINED WITH THE 30KT MID LEVEL WINDS
WILL MAKE FOR SOME BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS ACROSS THE STATE.
NORMALLY WINDY AREAS SUCH AS KCQC MAY NEED A WIND ADVISORY.
OTHERWISE...A FEW SHOWERS OR TSTMS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE N AND
NE...BUT NOT LOOKING FOR MUCH IN THE WAY OF MEASURABLE PRECIP.

AS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE DIVES SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE CENTRAL ROCKIES
ON TUESDAY...THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL GRADIENT OVER NEW MEXICO WILL
TIGHTEN SIGNIFICANTLY. GFS INDICATES 700 MB WINDS OF 50 KTS...WITH
500 MB WINDS AROUND 80 KTS. MODEL SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THAT MIXING
HEIGHTS WILL BE AROUND 550 MB ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS DESPITE
COOLER TEMPERATURES BEHIND THE TROUGH.  THUS...WHEN SOME OF THIS
MOMENTUM MIXES DOWN TO THE SURFACE TUESDAY AFTERNOON...VERY WINDY
CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED AREAWIDE...THOUGH ESPECIALLY ALONG AND
EAST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN. AIDING THE STRONG WINDS WILL BE
A 990MB SFC LOW SHIFTING SEWD FROM SE CO TO NEAR KLBB.

QUIETER WEATHER IS EXPECTED FOR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...THOUGH
WEDNESDAY MAY REMAIN A LITTLE BREEZY.  TEMPERATURES WILL BE BELOW
NORMAL ACROSS NEARLY ALL OF THE CWA ON WEDNESDAY...BUT WILL QUICKLY
REBOUND ON THURSDAY AS ZONAL FLOW OR PERHAPS WEAK RIDGING DEVELOPS.

AS ANOTHER WAVE PASSES TO THE NORTH OF THE STATE ON FRIDAY...A
STRONG SURFACE LOW WILL ONCE AGAIN DEVELOP ACROSS SE CO.  LOOK FOR
BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS TO MAKE A COME BACK.

.AVIATION...
SCATTERED MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS IN MAINLY MVFR CIGS/VSBYS -TSRA
WITH MOUNTAIN TOP -TSSN THROUGH 02Z MAINLY ALONG AND NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 40. LOCAL WIND GUSTS TO AROUND 45 KTS IN VICINITY
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.

NEXT AVIATION DISCUSSION SCHEDULED FOR 21Z.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
UPPER TROUGH TO CROSS NEW MEXICO TODAY/TONIGHT WITH BEST CHANCES
FOR WETTING PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE NORTHWEST THIRD OF THE STATE.
SOME THUNDER MAY BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE PRECIPITATION...AND DRY
LIGHTNING AND VARIABLE GUSTY WINDS ARE POSSIBLE MAINLY ALONG AND
SOUTH OF THE INTERSTATE 40 CORRIDOR...ALTHOUGH THE NORTHEAST
HIGHLANDS COULD EXPERIENCE THESE CONDITIONS AS WELL...AS A SURFACE
BOUNDARY...AND THUS HIGHER DEWPOINTS...ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN
CLOSER TO THE TEXAS BORDER TODAY AND THIS EVENING.

DECIDED TO CONVERT THE WATCH FOR ZONE 108 TO A WARNING FOR TODAY.
MOST FAVORABLE COMBINATION OF MINIMUM RH AND WIND APPEARS TO FAVOR
THE WESTERN HALF OF THE ZONE...WITH HIGHER...BUT CLOSE TO CRITICAL
RH VALUES NEARER THE TEXAS BORDER...DEPENDENT ON THE LOCATION OF THE
SURFACE BOUNDARY THIS AFTERNOON. SOME HIGHER DEWPOINTS MAY REACH THE
EASTERN NEW MEXICO BORDER THIS MORNING FROM A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX
OVER TEXAS...BUT SHOULD MIX OUT AT LEAST PARTIALLY...THIS
AFTERNOON.

OVERNIGHT RH RECOVERIES TONIGHT SHOULD IN GENERAL BE GOOD.

MONDAY AND ESPECIALLY TUESDAY WILL TRANSITION TO DRIER AND WINDIER
WEATHER. FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR MONDAY REMAINING INTACT AT THIS
POINT...ALTHOUGH MODELS INDICATE RH/WIND COMBO MAY BE MARGINAL AT
BEST FOR ZONE 109. ZONE 106 MAY SEE MORE FAVORABLE CRITICAL FIRE WX
CONDITIONS MONDAY BUT WILL HOLD OFF ON ADDING IT TO THE CURRENT
WATCH.

CRITICAL CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST TO BE WIDESPREAD TUESDAY...AS A
DRIER AIRMASS AND STRONGER MOUNTAIN TOP WINDS COMBINE WITH A STRONG
NORTHWEST SURFACE GRADIENT. CONFIDENCE FAIRLY HIGH SO WENT AHEAD
WITH A FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR ALL BUT ZONES 101 AND 102.  MODEL
GUIDANCE INDICATING WIND GUSTS TO AROUND 60-65 MPH POSSIBLE ALONG
AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 40 WHERE MINIMUM RH VALUES WILL RANGE FROM 5
TO 10 PERCENT. THE GOOD THING IS MAX TEMPS SHOULD BE NEAR TO 10
DEGREES BELOW NORMAL...AND HAINES VALUES ARE FORECAST TO RANGE FROM
3 TO 4 OVER MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA.

PREDOMINANTLY WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE
END OF THE WORKWEEK AND INTO NEXT WEEKEND WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
FURTHER CRITICAL CONDITIONS...ESPECIALLY FRIDAY.
