.DISCUSSION...
LOOKS LIKE A VERY ACTIVE PERIOD NEXT 18 TO 24 HOURS ACROSS MOST OF
FCST AREA. MOST ACTIVE AREA STILL LOOKS TO BE NEAR TO E OF THE RIO
GRANDE VALLEY AND THAT DOVETAILS WELL WITH THE SPC CONVECTIVE
OUTLOOK AREA OF SLIGHT RISK SEVERE STORMS. COMBO OF APPROACHING
SHORT WAVE FROM THE NW...GENERAL LIGHT TO MODERATE AND RELATIVELY
MOIST E TO SE LOW LEVEL FLOW AND FAIRLY GOOD DAYTIME HEATING...
ESPECIALLY WHERE INITIAL STORM INITIATION SHOULD TAKE PLACE ALONG
AND A LITTLE WAYS WEST OF CENTRAL MT CHAIN ARE FAVORABLE FOR
PRETTY GOOD CROP OF THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. INSTABILITY...
CAPE...LAPSE RATES...GOOD DIRECTIONAL AND MODEST TO LOCALLY
MODERATE SPEED SHEAR ALL COMBINE FAVORABLY...FOR THE MOST PART...
TO SUPPORT THE SLIGHT SEVERE STORM RISK. HAIL AND HIGH WINDS
BIGGEST THREAT...THOUGH A FEW MODEST OR RELATIVELY SHORT LIVED
SUPERCELLS CANNOT BE RULED OUT. TODAY BY FAR WILL BE THE MOST
ACTIVE WX DAY OF THE NEXT WEEK TO 10 DAYS. ACTIVITY SHOULD BEGIN
TO DIMINISH TONIGHT ACROSS NW NM AND ACROSS ALL BUT SE THIRD OR SO
BY MON AFTN. A FEW SHOWERS AND STORMS MAY STILL FIRE ACROSS
CENTRAL AND N HIGHER TERRAIN MON AFTN...BUT TO MUCH LOWER DEGREE.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE BELOW NORMAL EXCEPT FOR THE FAR W.

DRYING TREND WILL CONTINUE TUE WITH MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA DRY
AND WARMER. ONLY ISOLATED SHOWERS AND STORMS MAY FIRE OVER THE
NRN MOUNTAINS...THOUGH CONFIDENCE FOR THAT ONLY MODERATE
CURRENTLY. WEAK SHORT WAVE TO PASS N OF NM WED WITH SOME INCREASE
IN WINDS AND TEMPERATURES THE MAIN IMPACT. SHOULD BE NOTHING MORE
THAN ISOLATED SHOWERS AND STORMS OVER THE NRN MOUNTAINS AND FAR

CORRIDOR FROM SANTA ROSA TO THE TEXAS LINE...AND MAY SUPPORT SOME
LOCALLY CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS IN THESE SPOTS WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON. LEVEL TEMPERATURE TRENDS THURSDAY AND FRIDAY UNDER
FLATTENING RIDGE WITH STEADY DRYING TREND MOVING MINIMUM HUMIDITIES
