The radar

The Amarillo radar (KAMA), 152 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 07:29 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Amarillo Airport, TX (KAMA), launched 00:00Z, 7.5 hours before the alert went out and 153 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
617 PM MDT WED AUG 10 2011

.UPDATE...
QUICK UPDATE TO RAISE POPS WITHIN THE CENTRAL VALLEY AND
SURROUNDING HIGH TERRAIN AS POTENT FRONTAL BNDRY MOVES WEST
THROUGH THE AREA. STORMS WILL CONTINUE FIRING OVER A GOOD
PORTION OF THE REGION AROUND ABQ...SANTA FE...THE SANDIAS...
AND EAST MTN COMMUNITIES THRU THIS EVENING. ACTIVITY STILL
EXPECTED TO DIMINISH IN COVERAGE AFTER MIDNIGHT HOWEVER SOME
STORMS POSSIBLE ON REMNANT OUTFLOWS AND ALONG FRONT TO THE
WEST OF ABQ.

GUYER

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...325 PM MDT WED AUG 10 2011...
OVERALL TREND THROUGH THE WEEKEND WILL BE FOR INCREASING MOISTURE
AND RESULTING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. DRYING TREND NEXT WEEK
ESPECIALLY OVER THE N.

STRONG COLD FRONT ACROSS THE E HAS PUSHED ALL THE WAY THROUGH LAS
VEGAS...CLOVIS AND PORTALES AND IS NEAR CLINES CORNERS. TEMPS ARE
ONLY IN THE 70S IN CLAYTON AND LAS VEGAS AND 80S IN TUCUMCARI AND
RATON. STORMS HAVE FORMED ALONG THE FRONT BUT SO FAR ARE PRETTY
WELL BEHAVED. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED STORMS ARE LOCATED OVER MUCH
OF THE REMAINDER OF OUR CWA. STORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO TONIGHT.
A MODERATE E WIND IS LIKELY INTO THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY LATE
TONIGHT.

MOST MODELS ARE NOW SHOWING SOME DRYING OVER THE N THU AND FRI
AS THE UPPER HIGH INCHES S AND WESTERLY FLOW EDGES INTO THE FAR
N. MOST ACTIVE AREAS SHOULD BE ALONG AND S OF INTERSTATE 40 THU
AND ESPECIALLY FRI.

WEEKEND IS STILL LOOKING LIKE A DECENT MONSOON BURST AS MOISTURE
SURGES N INTO WRN NM AND A BACK DOOR FRONT BRINGS LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE TO THE E. THE ACTIVE WEATHER MAY BE SHORT LIVED AS
WESTERLY FLOW IS FORECAST TO DRY OUT AT LEAST NRN NM NEXT WEEK.
CHJ

.AVIATION...
STRONG COLD FRONT PLUNGING THROUGH THE ERN PLAINS WILL CONTINUE TO
SQUEEZE INTO THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY TONIGHT. EXPECT A MODEST GAP WIND
AT KABQ/KSAF...ALTHOUGH CONFIDENCE IN PEAK SPEEDS IS LOW ATTM. WILL
MAINTAIN 15G25KTS AND LET EVENING SHIFT MASSAGE AS NECESSARY. IN THE
MEANTIME...ISOLD/SCT SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL FAVOR THE WC/SW MTS AND
THE SE QUADRANT OF THE FORECAST AREA. BRIEF PERIODS OF MVFR VIS/CIGS
CAN BE EXPECTED WITH THE STRONGER STORMS...WITH THE BEST CHANCES AT
KLVS/KROW. COVERAGE OF STORMS WILL DECREASE AFTER SUNSET WITH ONLY A
MINIMAL THREAT AFTER MIDNIGHT. MODELS SUGGEST A BANK OF STRATUS MAY
DEVELOP ALONG THE ERN SLOPES OF THE CENTRAL MTN CHAIN EASTWARD INTO
THE HIGH PLAINS. THIS MAY IMPACT KLVS/KTCC AND HAVE ADDED SCT015-025
PLACEHOLDERS ACCORDINGLY IN THE TAFS.

NEXT AVIATION DISCUSSION SCHEDULED FOR 09Z. DPORTER

.FIRE WEATHER...
A SURFACE BOUNDARY MOVING THROUGH THE ERN PLAINS OF NEW MEXICO WILL
CONTINUE TO PUSH THROUGH THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN TONIGHT. EXPECT
INCREASED HUMIDITIES OVER THE AREA WITH THE MOST NOTABLE DIFFERENCE
IN THE NORTHWEST/CENTRAL VALLEYS. SHOWERS AND STORMS HAVE ERUPTED ON
THE FRONT WITH ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY IN THE WRN/CENTRAL MOUNTAINS. THE
ACTIVITY WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH AFTER SUNSET WITH MINIMAL COVERAGE
AFTER MIDNIGHT. APPEARS THE BEST HUMIDITY RECOVERIES WILL BE IN THE
NE/EC PLAINS...WHERE SOME STRATUS COULD ALSO DEVELOP TOWARD DAYBREAK.
WINDS WILL BE FAIRLY LIGHT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A LIGHT/MODEST GAP
WIND WITHIN THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY.

THE UPPER HIGH WILL SHIFT SLOWLY TO THE SE QUADRANT OF NM THURSDAY...
WITH THE BEST THREAT FOR PRECIPITATION IN THE WRN MOUNTAINS AS WELL
AS LOCALES ALONG/EAST OF THE CENTRAL MTN CHAIN. WETTING FOOTPRINTS
SHOULD IMPROVE ALTHOUGH THE THREAT FOR WIDESPREAD FLASH FLOODING IS
EXPECTED TO BE MINIMAL. SOME DRYING APPEARS TO BE SCHEDULED OVER THE
NORTHWEST PLATEAU ON FRIDAY...HOWEVER A BACKDOOR COLD FRONT WILL BE
POSED TO SLIDE THROUGH THE ERN PLAINS BY EVENING. THEREFORE...EXPECT
A DOWNTREND/UPTICK IN THUNDERSTORMS CHANCES IN THE NW AND ERN PLAINS
RESPECTIVELY. MIN HUMIDITIES WILL DROP INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS IN THE
NORTHWEST.

FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKEND...EXPECT THE UPR HIGH TO REMAIN CENTERED IN
THE NEW MEXICO REGION. EXPECT THE MID/UPPER LEVEL MOISTURE SURGE TO
PUSH INTO ERN ARIZONA AND POSSIBLY WRN NEW MEXICO. MEANWHILE...THE
SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL RECHARGE THE LOWER LEVELS THE ATMOSPHERE OVER
CENTRAL/ERN NEW MEXICO. WITH THIS IN MIND...EXPECT THE PRECIPITATION
THREAT TO RETURN CLOSER TO CLIMATOLOGICAL NORMALS. SLOW MOVEMENT TO
THUNDERSTORMS AND INCREASED COVERAGE COULD ALLOW FOR A HIGHER THREAT
FOR LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING...ESPECIALLY AT BURN SCARS. COOLER HIGH
TEMPERATURES/HIGHER HUMIDITIES WILL ALSO OCCUR THIS WEEKEND. DPORTER
