AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
1149 PM MDT FRI AUG 9 2013

.AVIATION...
06Z TAF CYCLE
THE NEXT 24HRS STILL LOOKS TO BE A HIGH IMPACT PERIOD FOR TERMINALS
ACROSS THE REGION...ESPECIALLY CENTRAL/EASTERN NM. LOW CLOUDS HAVE
DEVELOPED ALONG THE EAST SLOPES OF THE SANGRE DE CRISTO MTS WITH
MOIST UPSLOPE EASTERLY FLOW. MODELS IN BETTER AGREEMENT ON THIS
FOR KLVS MOST OF NIGHT AND LATEST OBS ARE ALREADY NEAR MVFR. CIGS
MAY LOWER TO IFR FOR A COUPLE HOURS BEFORE SUNRISE. STORMS ARE
STILL ONGOING FOR THE LOWER RIO GRANDE VALLEY AND SE PLAINS BTWN
KABQ AND KROW. THIS IS EXPECTED TO BE THE FOCUS FOR SHRA/TSRA
SATURDAY AFTERNOON. TIMING ON CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT STILL A
LITTLE IN QUESTION DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH CLOUD COVER LINGERS IN
THE MORNING. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY CURRENTLY SHIFTING WEST OVER THE
AREA WILL LIKELY STALL SOMEWHERE IN CENTRAL NM AND SERVE AS THE
MAIN FOCUS FOR POTENTIALLY HEAVY RAINFALL. ACTIVITY SHOULD SHIFT
EAST INTO THE SE PLAINS LATE DAY.

GUYER

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...300 PM MDT FRI AUG 9 2013...
CURRENTLY...ACTIVE CONVECTION UNDERWAY OVER MUCH OF CENTRAL NEW
MEXICO...WITH STORM TRANSPORT TO THE NORTHEAST AND EXPANSION OF
STORM COVERAGE A GOOD BET FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. GOOD VERTICAL STORM DEVELOPMENT IS SUPPORTING AN ENHANCED
HAIL THREAT...WITH SOME LARGER HAIL ALREADY REPORTED SO FAR THIS
AFTERNOON.

MODELS...IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT IN A WEAKLY FORCED PATTERN
THROUGH THE UPCOMING WORK WEEK AND FOLLOWING WEEKEND. BROAD RIDGE
BELT WITH CENTROID OVER SOUTHEAST TEXAS...AND LOBE
EXTENDING NORTHWARD ACROSS THE ROCKIES TO THE IDAHO PANHANDLE.
CENTROID WILL SHIFT TO CENTRAL TEXAS ON SATURDAY...AND DRIFT
SLOWLY TO SOUTHERN NEW MEXICO BY TUESDAY NIGHT. CENTROID SHIFT TO
EASTERN ARIZONA BY THURSDAY AND INTO NORTHERN SONORA BY FRIDAY
NIGHT WHERE IT WILL REMAIN FOR THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND.

OVERNIGHT...THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUING WELL INTO THE EVENING WITH
HAIL THREAT TAPERING OFF TOWARD MIDNIGHT AND SOME LOCALLY HEAVY
RAIN OVER THE SANGRE DE CRISTO RANGE. SOUTHEAST WINDS AUGMENTED BY
EVENING CONVECTION WILL PUSH SOME GUSTS THROUGH CENTRAL MOUNTAIN
CHAIN GAPS AND OUT OVER THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY OVERNIGHT TONIGHT
WITH GUSTS TO 30 MPH TAPERING OFF BY DAY BREAK.

FOR SATURDAY...RIDGE CORE SHIFTING TO CENTRAL TEXAS WILL HELP
ACCELERATE NORTHWARD TUG OF MOISTURE ACROSS THE STATE. SOME UP
SLOPE AND UP VALLEY FLOW WILL AUGMENT THUNDERSTORM INTENSITIES
AGAINST THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN AND CONTINENTAL DIVIDE...WITH
FORECAST RAINFALL MAX PAINTING FOR THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS AND ADJACENT
EASTERN PLAINS THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING. WILL PUT FLASH FLOOD
WATCH IN PLAY THROUGH LATE SATURDAY NIGHT OVER THESE AREAS TO LINE UP
WITH THIS RAINFALL MAX...SUBJECT TO ADJUSTMENT OVERNIGHT WITH THE
LATEST MODEL INFO IF NEEDED. EXPANSION TO THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS
AND UPPER GILA REGION IS A POSSIBILITY WITH QPF NOW IN HAND.

FOR SUNDAY...WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE AGAIN ON DECK AS
RIDGE CORE DRIFTS INTO SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO OUT OF WEST TEXAS.
SUBTLE SHIFT OF RAINFALL MAXIMUM WILL MOVE TO THE WEST TOWARD THE
WESTERN MOUNTAINS AND UPPER GILA REGION WITH A MODEST REDUCTION IN
STORM INTENSITY. LOW LEVEL WINDS IN THE EAST WILL PICK UP
SOUTHWEST COMPONENT...DETUNING UP SLOPE ENHANCEMENT WITH THE
CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN AND REDUCING STORM INTENSITIES IN THE
EASTERN HALF OF THE STATE. HOWEVER...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL REMAINS
POSSIBLE THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING.

FOR MONDAY...ANOTHER GENTLE DOWN TICK IN THUNDERSTORM
COVERAGE...WITH FOCUS ON THE WESTERN AND NORTHERN HIGH COUNTRY AND
UPPER GILA REGION. FLASH FLOOD RISK WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
REMAINS IN PLAY...BUT DEEPENING SURFACE TROUGH OVER THE
NORTHEAST...AND CIRCULATION NORTHWARD ABOUT THERMAL LOW OVER THE
COLORADO RIVER VALLEY COMBINED WITH RIDGE CENTROID SHIFT TO
EXTREME WEST TEXAS AND NORTHERN CHIHUAHUA WILL HELP EASE DOWN
NORTHBOUND MOISTURE TRANSPORT TO PROVIDE REDUCED FUEL FOR
THUNDERSTORM INTENSITY.

OUTLOOK...TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...RIDGE CORE SHIFTING TO
SOUTHERN NEW MEXICO AND THEN TO SOUTHEAST ARIZONA BY WEDNESDAY AND
REMAINING IN PLACE THROUGH THURSDAY. SHIFT WILL GRADUALLY CLOSE
THE DOOR ON MOISTURE INTO WESTERN NEW MEXICO...AND OPEN DOOR FOR
STORM DEVELOPMENT UNDER NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE EASTERN END OF THE
STATE. LACKING AGGRESSIVE MOISTURE TRANSPORT...STORMS WILL RUN IN
RECYCLE MODE WITH IN PLACE MOISTURE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT COMPONENT.
OTHERWISE...WEAK COLD FRONT WILL DROP SOUTHWARD OVER THE NORTHEAST
AND EAST TUESDAY NIGHT WITH CHIEF IMPACT A WIND SHIFT. GENTLE
WARMING TREND WILL BRING MOST SPOTS 3 TO 8 DEGREES ABOVE MID
AUGUST NORMAL TEMPERATURES BY THURSDAY.

SHY

.FIRE WEATHER...
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE PUSHED WEST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN THIS
MORNING. AND WITH RELATIVELY COOL TEMPERATURES ABOVE MOUNTAIN TOP
LEVEL AND A STRENGTHENING SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT...THUNDERSTORMS BEGAN
FIRING OVER EASTERN HALF OF THE WEST-CENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST MOUNTAINS
EAST AND NORTH OVER THE REMAINDER OF THE NM MOUNTAIN RANGES RATHER
EARLY. STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST-NORTHEAST BETWEEN 10-15 MPH
THROUGH THIS EVENING. WEATHER SPOTTERS REPORTING NUMEROUS PEA TO
NICKEL SIZE HAIL ALREADY EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. EXPECT AN EVEN MORE
ACTIVE DAY SATURDAY AS LOW LEVEL MOISTURE INCREASES FURTHER AND EVEN
STRONGER SW FLOW ALOFT MOVES OVERHEAD. HAIL IS EXPECTED TO BE
THE MAIN IMPACT SATURDAY AS TEMPERATURES ALOFT REMAIN QUITE COOL FOR
EARLY TO MID AUGUST AND LARGE SCALE ATMOSPHERIC LIFT HELPS TO KEEP
STORMS SOMEWHAT ORGANIZED.

MODERATE EAST WINDS WILL TRANSPORT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WESTWARD
THROUGH THE CENTRAL MTN CHAIN CANYONS TO THE AZ BORDER. LAS CONCHAS
BURN SCAR APPEARS TO REMAIN THE GREATEST AREA OF CONCERN FOR FLASH
FLOODING WITH STRONG SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT FAVORING THE NORTHEASTERN
PORTION OF THE JEMEZ MOUNTAINS.

WEATHER PREDICTION MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE A VERY ACTIVE PATTERN
THROUGH AT LEAST SUNDAY. GFS SHOWING A RELATIVELY STRONG EASTERLY
WAVE ROUNDING THE BASE OF UPPER HIGH CENTERED OVER WEST TX AND
MOVING UP INTO NM SUNDAY...THEN DRYING THINGS OUT MONDAY. NAM IS
WEAKER AND SLOWER WITH THE WAVE AND KEEPS MONDAY MOIST AND ACTIVE.
12Z ECMWF SIDING WITH THE NAM...KEEPING THINGS ACTIVE THROUGH
MONDAY. GFS AND ECMWF ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH ONE ANOTHER TUESDAY
AND BEYOND...SHOWING DRY WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT TAKING HOLD TUESDAY AS
THE UPPER HIGH CENTER SLIDES WESTWARD JUST SOUTH OF THE NM BOOT HEEL.
BACKDOOR FRONTS THEN BEGIN TO DROP INTO THE NE AND EC PLAINS
WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...TRANSITIONING CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY THERE
FOR THE LATTER HALF OF NEXT WEEK.
