AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LUBBOCK TX
319 AM CDT WED APR 6 2011

.SHORT TERM...
FAIRLY WOUND UP LOW OFF THE COAST OF BAJA IS PROGGED TO FILL AND
QUICKLY EJECT ACROSS THE SRN CONUS BRINGING WITH IT HIGH CLOUDINESS
WITH BEST LIFT ACROSS OUR AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  EITHER SIDE OF THIS
AREA OF LARGE SCALE LIFT...SUBSIDENCE IS EVIDENT AND THIS WILL
CONTRIBUTE TO A CONTINUED THREAT FOR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER
CONDITIONS.  POLAR JET REMAINS IN A NEARLY ZONAL CONFIGURATION
ACROSS THE NRN PART OF THE COUNTRY THOUGH THE SUBTROPICAL JET
BECOMES ENHANCED AS THE AFOREMENTIONED LOW APPROACHES THE AREA.  H7
WIND MAX WILL BE ORIENTED EAST TO WEST ACROSS THE AREA SOUTH OF A
SURFACE LOW CURRENTLY LOCATED OVER SERN CO.  THIS LOW WILL WEAKEN
SLIGHTLY MAKING ITS WAY TO THE CHILDRESS AREA BY MID DAY.  SOUTH OF
THE LOW PRESSURE GRADIENTS WILL INCREASE FUNNELING WESTERLY WINDS
YIELDING VERY DRY CONDITIONS ONCE AGAIN.  COLD FRONT WILL ENTER THE
PANHANDLE BUT WITH THE ABSORPTION OF THE UPPER LEVEL LOW INTO THE
MAIN STREAM...SOUTHWARD PROGRESS WILL BE LARGELY IMPEDED WITH THE
NORTHEAST AND EAST ONLY SEEING ITS EFFECTS WITH A NORTHEASTERLY
WIND SHIFT FOR A FEW HOURS.  OTHERWISE...BREEZY AND VERY DRY
CONDITIONS WILL COMBINE TO PROVIDE CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER
CONDITIONS.  HAVE TENDED TOWARD THE LOW END OF GUIDANCE FOR
AFTERNOON HIGHS GIVEN THE EXPECTED CLOUD COVER.  EITHER WAY...IT
WILL BE QUITE WARM AND VERY DRY.

INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT...PLENTIFUL UPPER MOISTURE WILL STREAM OVER THE
AREA WITH MODEST LIFT EVIDENT IN OMEGA AND DIV-Q FIELDS WHICH LOOK
TO HAVE POTENTIAL FOR VIRGA SHOWERS.  THIS IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE
SURFACE WINDS AS DCAPES BELOW THESE FEATURES ACCELERATE DOWNWARD MOTION.
WITH THE CLOUDS AND MILDLY BREEZY CONDITIONS...WILL TREND LOWS
UPWARD TO MAINLY 50S WEST AND NEAR 60 EAST.

&&

.LONG TERM...
FOCUS FOR THE LONG TERM FORECAST CONTINUES TO BE PLAGUED BY BREEZY
TO WINDY CONDITIONS...AND LOW TO HIGH END CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER
DAYS.

UA LOW OFF THE BAJA OF CALIFORNIA COAST IS PROGGED TO DWINDLE
WHILE PROPAGATING NE ACROSS THE DESERT SW WEDNESDAY NIGHT...THUS
INDUCING SLIGHT SW FLOW ALOFT. THIS SYNOPTIC TRANSITION WILL AID
TO TRANSPORT GULF MOISTURE NORTHWARD TOWARDS THE SOUTH PLAINS.
FORECAST SOLUTIONS DISPLAY LOW LEVEL MOISTURE PERHAPS NEARING THE
FAR EASTERN AND SERN ZONES BY THURSDAY MORNING...WITH LIGHT QPF
VALUES ACROSS THE NORTHERN AND NORTHWESTERN ZONES AS THE SYSTEM
PROPAGATES NE ACROSS THE REGION. THIS IS DEPICTED MORE SO BY THE
GFS AND ECMWF SOLUTIONS WHERE AS THE NAM AND GEM SOLUTIONS ARE
LESS OPTIMISTIC IN THIS REGARD. WILL TEND TO FAVOR SILENT POPS
ATTM AS MODEL SOUNDINGS EXHIBITED RATHER DRY LOW LEVELS...WITH
MID-LEVEL CLOUDINESS BEING MORE OF A PROBABILITY. BY THURSDAY
AFTERNOON...ANY MOISTURE REMNANTS QUICKLY GETS SHIFTED EAST OF THE
ROLLING PLAINS THANKS TO THE EASTWARD SURGE OF THE DRYLINE. THUS
SFC LEE TROUGHING NORTH OF THE CWA WILL CAUSE WINDY SOUTHWESTERLY
SFC WINDS...AS MOS GUIDANCE DISPLAYED WIND SPEEDS OF 29 AND 34 KTS
AT KCDS AND KLBB RESPECTIVELY /WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA/. AS A
RESULT...RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES WILL BE CAPABLE OF FALLING BELOW
15 PERCENT...AND THUS UPGRADING THE CWA- WIDE FIRE WEATHER WATCH
TO RED FLAG WARNING IS VALIDATED ATTM. BY FRIDAY...A NW PACIFIC UA
SYSTEM WILL DIG SSE NEARING THE BAJA OF CALIFORNIA...AND HENCE
SHARPENING THE SW FLOW ALOFT. SFC LEE TROUGHING WILL INDUCE BREEZY
SOUTHWESTERLY SFC WINDS...HOWEVER NOT AS STRONG AS DEPICTED ON
THURSDAY /25 KTS AT KLBB/. STILL...WELL ABOVE AVG TEMPS AND BREEZY
CONDITIONS WILL PROMOTE RHS TO FALL BELOW 15 PERCENT...WITH BEST
MOISTURE LOCATED EAST OF THE ROLLING PLAINS.

THE DRYLINE WILL RETREAT A BIT WESTWARD ACROSS LOCALES OFF THE
CAPROCK SATURDAY MORNING...WITH DEPICTIONS OF LIGHT QPF AND LOW-MID
LEVEL CLOUDINESS ACROSS THE AFOREMENTIONED AREA. HOWEVER...THE
APPROACHING AFOREMENTIONED SYSTEM ACROSS THE DESERT SW WILL INDUCE A
SFC LEE TROUGH AND A QUICK EASTWARD SURGE OF THE DRYLINE. ABL MIXING
APPEARS SLIGHTLY DEEPER THAN FRIDAY AND HENCE IS SHOWN VIA MOS
GUIDANCE WIND SPEEDS /34 AND 33 KTS AT KLBB AND KCDS RESPECTIVELY/.
INCREASED POPS ACROSS EASTERN ZONES SLIGHTLY BUT REMAIN BELOW
MENTIONABLE LEVELS SATURDAY MORNING...SINCE MOISTURE HAS BEEN RATHER
HARD TO COME BY AND THUS LOW CLOUDS APPEAR MORE LIKELY. BY
SUNDAY...THE SYSTEM WILL EVOLVE INTO A WAVE AND TRANSLATE ESE ACROSS
THE SOUTH PLAINS /A CLOSED LOW ACROSS THE PANHANDLES IS SHOWN VIA
THE ECMWF/. THE ASSOCIATED PACIFIC FRONT WILL PROMOTE BREEZY TO LOW
END WINDY WEST TO NORTHWESTERLY SFC WINDS /25-30 KTS/ SUNDAY
AFTERNOON...WHICH WILL SHIFT BEST MOISTURE WELL EAST OF THE CWA.
AGAIN THIS DOWNSLOPING WIND COMPONENT WILL PROMOTE THE FILTERING OF
DRIER AIR ALTHOUGH IT MAY NOT BE SIGNIFICANTLY DRIER DUE TO ITS
PACIFIC ORIGINS /PLUS TEMPS WILL BE SLIGHTLY COOLER/. BY
MONDAY...NEAR ZONAL FLOW ALOFT WILL BRIEFLY RETURN TO THE
REGION...WITH A TRANSITION TO SLIGHT SW FLOW TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY
THANKS TO AN EMBEDDED PACIFIC SHORTWAVE. WITH SLIGHTLY BREEZY SOUTH
TO SOUTHWESTERLY WIND SPEEDS PREVAILING THROUGH THE FIRST-HALF OF
NEXT WEEK...THE GFS SHOWS THE TRANSPORT OF GULF MOISTURE AND THE
POSSIBILITY OF PRECIP BY WEDNESDAY. THE ECMWF SOLUTION ON THE
OTHER-HAND IS SLOWER WITH THE UA SYSTEM FOR SUNDAY...WITH IT
CLEARING THE AREA BY MONDAY AFTERNOON. HENCE...ZONAL FLOW INITIATES
ON TUESDAY INSTEAD OF MONDAY.

TO SUMMARIZE...MOISTURE MAY BE DIFFICULT TO COME BY AS SFC LEE
TROUGHING AND THE PROMINENT EASTWARD PUSH OF THE DRYLINE COMMENCES.
HOWEVER...EAST AND SOUTHEAST ZONES WILL HAVE THE BEST SHOT FOR
CLOUDS AND/OR PRECIP. WILL HOWEVER MAINTAIN A DRY FORECAST
ATTM...WITH HIGHEST BELOW MENTIONABLE POPS BEING SPATIALLY
DISTRIBUTED ACROSS THE AFOREMENTIONED AREAS. LOW TO HIGH END
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER DAYS WILL ENSUE THIS WEEK...WITH FORECAST
SOLUTIONS HONING IN ON THURSDAY...SATURDAY AND SUNDAY BEING THE
EXTREMELY CRITICAL DAYS. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION...PLEASE REFER TO
THE FIRE WEATHER DISCUSSION BELOW.

.FIRE WEATHER...
DAY 1...THE INHERITED RED FLAG WARNING HAS BEEN EXPANDED TO INCLUDE
STONEWALL AND KENT COUNTIES.  GIVEN WIND AND THERMODYNAMIC PROFILES
IN COMBINATION WITH CRITICALLY DRY FUEL...SUBSTANTIVE GRASSLAND FIRE
THREAT WILL EXIST AREAWIDE.  OVERNIGHT RECOVERIES HAVE BEEN QUITE
POOR WITH VALUES ONLY MAKING IT TO THE LOWER 20 PCT RANGE AS OF 1
AM.  WHILE WINDS TODAY MAY BE ON THE LOWER END OF RED FLAG
CRITERIA...RECENT FIRES CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT THAT VERY LITTLE IS
NEEDED TO INDUCE RAPID FIRE SPREAD. WINDS MAY ONLY REACH THE LOWER
TO MID 20 MPH RANGE AT THE 20 FOOT HEIGHT THROUGH WITH THE POOR
RECOVERIES...PROTRACTED PERIODS OF RED FLAG CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY.
BACK DOOR COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PUSH INTO THE NORTHEASTERN /
EASTERN PART OF THE AREA FROM THE NORTHEAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON OR
THIS EVENING CREATING A WIND SHIFT HAZARD FOR ANY FIRE SUPPRESSION
EFFORTS.

CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL EACH AFTERNOON
THU-SUN. SFC LEE TROUGHING NORTH OF THE SOUTH PLAINS WILL DEVELOP
EACH AFTERNOON AND HENCE PROMOTE BREEZY TO WINDY WEST TO
SOUTHWESTERLY 20-FOOT WINDS. MODEL GUIDANCE APPEARS TO HINT AT THE
EXTREMELY CRITICAL DAYS BEING THURSDAY...SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...AS UA
TROUGHS MOVES ACROSS THE REGION AND AIDS TO STRENGTHEN ABL WIND
SPEEDS. 20-FOOT WIND SPEEDS DURING THE ANTICIPATED HIGH END FIRE
DANGER DAYS...ARE PROGGED TO RANGE BETWEEN 25 TO 35 MPH /EQUATING
WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA/ WITH RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES
NEARING/EQUATING SINGLE DIGITS. DUE TO THE ABOVE CONDITIONS WITH THE
ADDITION OF CRITICALLY DRY FUELS AND APPARENT EASILY INITIATED
WILDFIRES...HAVE DECIDED TO UPGRADE THE CWA-WIDE FIRE WEATHER WATCH
ON THURSDAY TO A RED FLAG WARNING. WITH WIND SPEEDS POSSIBLY
EXCEEDING 27 KTS ACROSS MOST AREAS...WILL LET LATER SHIFTS DECIDE
IF A WIND ADVISORY PRODUCT IS WARRANTED FOR THURSDAY.

FOR FRIDAY...THERE IS A LACK OF STRONG SYNOPTIC FORCING HOWEVER THE
DRYLINE WILL PLAY A KEY ROLE AS IT WILL SURGE EAST ACROSS THE ENTIRE
REGION. TEMPS ON FRIDAY WILL BE WARM /MID TO UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S/
DESPITE THE PROPAGATION OF A PACIFIC SYSTEM AND HENCE ASSOCIATED
PACIFIC FRONT FROM THE PREVIOUS DAY. HOWEVER...RELATIVE HUMIDITY
VALUES WILL STILL BE CAPABLE OF FALLING BELOW 15 PERCENT. PROGGED
20-FOOT WINDS FOR THE AFOREMENTIONED DAY ARE LESS THAN THE EXPECTED
HIGH END FIRE WEATHER DAYS...ALTHOUGH STILL QUITE BREEZY /BETWEEN 20
TO 25 MPH/. THUS WILL LET LATER SHIFTS EVALUATE LATER MODEL RUNS AS
A FIRE DANGER STATEMENT OR POSSIBLY A FIRE WEATHER WATCH MAY BE
WARRANTED FOR FRIDAY PARTICULARLY ACROSS LOCALES ON THE CAPROCK...DUE
TO THE CRITICALLY DRY FUELS.
