AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LUBBOCK TX
1143 PM CST SAT FEB 18 2012

.AVIATION...
PERSISTENT SUBSIDENCE FINALLY BREAKING THROUGH STUBBORN STRATUS
LAYER JUST SOUTH OF KLBB AND MAY BE ABLE TO BRIEFLY BREAK UP
CLOUDS EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. BUT ANY COOLING WITH LIGHT UPSLOPE
COMPONENT SHOULD QUICKLY SATURATE AT THE SURFACE. WE EXPECT LIFR
CONDITIONS WITH DENSE FOG TO DEVELOP AT KLBB EARLY SUNDAY. KCDS
APPEARS ALSO THAT STRATUS DECK SHOULD BREAK UP AND LIKEWISE A
SIMILAR RISK OF DROPPING TO LIFR CONDITIONS A LITTLE LATER IN THE
MORNING. LATEST GUIDANCE TRENDS SUPPORT LIFTING STRATUS LAYER
EARLY TO MID SUNDAY MORNING AND BREAKING OUT BY LATE MORNING.
MODEST SOUTHERLY BREEZES DEVELOPING SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS LEE-SIDE
SURFACE LOW PRESSURE TROUGH DEEPENS NEAR NEW MEXICO BORDER.
RMCQUEEN

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1008 PM CST SAT FEB 18 2012/

AVIATION...
LOW CLOUD DECK WITH MOSTLY LIGHT FOG IS STARTING TO TRANSITION TO
MORE SURFACE-BASED OBSCURATION. ESPECIALLY SO OVER WESTERN ZONES
AS CLEARING OF LOW CLOUD DECK MET INSTANTLY BY SURFACE SATURATION.
THIS EVENINGS SHORT-TERM GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO INDICATE LIKELIHOOD
OF MORE WIDE-SPREAD LOW VISIBILITIES DEVELOPING THROUGHOUT THE
NIGHT MAINLY FOR AREAS ON THE CAP-ROCK. WE HAVE ISSUED A DENSE
FOG ADVISORY VALID UNTIL 15Z OR 0900 AM SUNDAY. RMCQUEEN

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 548 PM CST SAT FEB 18 2012/

AVIATION...
EVEN THROUGH PRECIPITATION HAS ENDED AS UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM WAS PULLING EAST ACROSS NORTH TEXAS...CONSIDERABLE LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE REMAINED ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS AND
ROLLING PLAINS. THERE STILL APPEARS TO BE A SMALL AMOUNT OF MID
LEVEL MOISTURE/LIFT AS WELL THAT WILL BE ENDING IN THE NEXT HOUR
OR TWO. AFTER THAT...SUBSIDENCE SHOULD INCREASE THROUGH A DEEP
PART OF THE MIDDLE AND LOWER ATMOSPHERE AND PUT A LOT OF PRESSURE
ON THE LOW LEVEL STRATUS LAYER. WE THINK THE LOW CLOUDS WILL TEND
TO THIN AND PROBABLY BREAK SOMEWHAT LATER IN THE EVENING INTO THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS ON SUNDAY. HOWEVER...LIGHT SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST
COMPONENT BREEZE SHOULD FAVOR SURFACE-BASED OR NEAR SURFACE
SATURATION ESPECIALLY AT KLBB LATER TONIGHT AND EARLY SUNDAY. SOME
SOLUTIONS ALSO INDICATE DRIZZLE POSSIBILITY AT KLBB AGAIN BRIEFLY
NEAR DAY-BREAK SUNDAY. KCDS LESS CERTAIN IF STRATUS LAYER WILL
REFORM LATER TONIGHT THOUGH MOST OUTPUT INDICATES LIKELY THAT IT
WILL. IN ANY CASE WE ARE FAVORING THE PREVIOUS TAF FORECAST FOR
REFORMING THE STRATUS AT BOTH KLBB AND KCDS EARLY SUNDAY...LIFTING
BRIEFLY INTO AN IFR OR MVFR CLOUD LAYER SUNDAY MORNING...THEN
CLEARING TOWARDS MIDDAY SUNDAY JUST AT THE END OR AFTER THIS TAF.
RMCQUEEN

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 310 PM CST SAT FEB 18 2012/

SHORT TERM...
THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH THAT HAS PROVIDED THE LIFT TO SUPPORT DRIZZLE
AND SHOWERS /AND EVEN SOME SLEET AND SNOW ACROSS THE EXTREME
NORTHWEST ZONES EARLIER TODAY/ WAS MOVING STEADILY EASTWARD INTO
CENTRAL TEXAS. LARGE-SCALE SUBSIDENCE WAS SPREADING IN FROM THE WEST
BEHIND THIS SYSTEM AND THIS HAS RESULTED IN A MARKED DECREASE IN
RADAR ECHOES ACROSS THE AREA OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS WITH EVEN
SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS SEEN ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST ZONES. ANY
LINGERING LIGHT SHOWERS ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST ZONES THIS AFTERNOON
WILL QUICKLY COME TO AN END WITH DRY CONDITIONS TONIGHT AND SUNDAY.
THIS WILL OCCUR AS A SHORTWAVE RIDGE ALOFT TRAVERSES THE REGION
LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY SUNDAY. DO ALSO EXPECT BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS
TO WORK ACROSS THE SOUTH PLAINS AND PERHAPS THROUGH THE ROLLING
PLAINS THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT. HOWEVER...THE LOW-LEVELS WILL
REMAIN MOIST TONIGHT AND WITH LIGHT WINDS AND CLEARING SKIES...DO
EXPECT AREAS OF FOG AND LOW CLOUDS TO REDEVELOP LATER THIS EVENING
AND OVERNIGHT TONIGHT. ONSET AND DENSITY OF FOG WILL BE DETERMINED
BY HOW FAST AND WIDESPREAD CLOUDS CAN CLEAR OUT...BUT HAVE CONTINUED
A MENTION OF DENSE FOG IN THE HWO. ADDITIONALLY...THE LOW-LEVEL
MOISTURE...CLOUDS AND FOG WILL KEEP THE TEMPERATURES FROM FALLING
TOO FAR...WITH LOWS TONIGHT MOSTLY IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 30S.

ON SUNDAY...THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM WILL BEGIN APPROACHING THROUGH THE
GREAT BASIN AND INTER-MOUNTAIN WEST WITH SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT
TAKING SHAPE ACROSS WEST TEXAS BY AFTERNOON. THIS PATTERN WILL
SUPPORT A DEEPENING SFC TROUGH IN THE LEE OF THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN
ROCKIES WHICH IN-TURN WILL SPELL BREEZY SOUTHERLY WINDS RETURNING TO
WEST TEXAS. EXPECT THE EARLY DAY LOW CLOUDS AND FOG TO BREAK UP BY
MID TO LATE MORNING AND THE BREEZY SOUTHERLY WINDS AND RETURN OF THE
SUN SHOULD HELP PUSH HIGHS WELL INTO THE 50S...WITH EVEN SOME
LOWER 60S POSSIBLE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN AND WESTERN ZONES.

LONG TERM...
A WIND EVENT IS LOOKING MORE LIKELY FOR MONDAY AS MODELS ARE
BEGINNING TO HONE IN ON A SOLUTION THAT BRINGS A SHARP UPPER LEVEL
TROUGH ACROSS THE CNTL HIGH PLAINS AND TEXAS PANHANDLE MONDAY
AFTN. ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THAT TROUGH TIGHTENING PRESSURE/HEIGHT
GRADIENT AND A MID LEVEL JET STREAK THAT WILL MIX TO THE SFC WILL
RESULT IN WINDS INCREASING TOWARD OR INTO WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA.
ATTM THE LACK OF A MORE SUBSTANTIAL MID LEVEL JET SUGGESTS WARNING
CRITERIA NOT AS LIKELY DESPITE THE IMPRESSIVE WIND SPEEDS GIVEN ON
GFS MOS GUIDANCE. WILL BEAR WATCH THE NEXT COUPLE OF MODEL RUNS.

REMAINDER OF THE FCST CONTINUES TO LOOK QUIET WITH WNW TO NW FLOW
ALOFT. LATE WEEK COULD SEE AN UPPER LOW MOVE ACROSS NORTHERN
MEXICO TO WEST CENTRAL TEXAS...BUT GIVEN DRY LOW LEVELS THROUGH
THE WEEK MOISTURE RETURN AHEAD OF THIS LOW WOULD HAVE TO BE VERY
QUICK FOR IT TO PRODUCE PRECIP THIS FAR NORTH.

FIRE WEATHER...
WINDS SHOULD EASILY MAKE CRITERIA MONDAY WITH LIMITING FACTOR
HUMIDITY. HAVE LOWERED FCST DEW POINT TEMPS AND THUS AFTN RELATIVE
HUMIDITY...BUT FOR NOW THEY REMAIN IN THE 15 TO 20 PCT RANGE. SO
WILL HAVE TO KEEP A WATCH ON THIS AS MOVE FORWARD. TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY LOOK TO HAVE THE OPPOSITE PROBLEM WITH RH QUITE POSSIBLY
HITTING CRITERIA BUT WINDS STAYING ON THE LIGHTER SIDE OF THE 20
MPH THRESHOLD.
