AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
248 PM MDT FRI OCT 18 2013

.DISCUSSION...
CURRENTLY...BROAD TROUGH OVER THE HEART OF THE U.S. EXTENDING FROM
CIRCULATION CENTER WEST OF HUDSONS BAY IN NORTHERN CANADA SOUTH
AND EAST ACROSS EASTERN NEW MEXICO TO NORTHERN CHIHUAHUA AND
NORTHEAST SONORA. SURFACE COLD FRONT LEADING WESTWARD COLD PUSH
HAS REACHED THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN...AS QUICK HITTER LIGHT
RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS CLIP THE NORTHEAST PLAINS IN CIRCULATION
ABOUT THE BROAD TROUGH ALOFT.

MODELS...IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND MOST OF
THE UPCOMING WORK WEEK. DISJOINTS ON UPSTREAM PATTERN EVOLUTION
CONTINUE TO PLAGUE SOLUTIONS FROM NEXT FRIDAY ONWARD INTO THE
FOLLOWING WEEKEND. THROUGH THE INTERMEDIATE TERM...PLAUSIBLE
CONSENSUS SHIFTS SIGNIFICANT CANADIAN CIRCULATION CENTER FROM
WESTERN HUDSONS BAY TO WESTERN QUEBEC THROUGH TUESDAY...AND THIS
WILL GRADUALLY EASE PERSISTENT NORTHWEST FLOW OUT OF ALL BUT
EXTREME NORTHEAST NEW MEXICO. UPSTREAM RIDGE BUILDING ALONG THE
WEST COAST WILL ATTEMPT TO SHIFT EASTWARD OVER NEW MEXICO BY
MIDWEEK...BUT RIDGE WILL BEGIN COLLAPSE BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT IN THE
FACE OF DEVELOPING EAST PACIFIC SYSTEM OFF THE OREGON COAST BY
EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. WITH FLOW COLLAPSED ALOFT OVER NEW
MEXICO...ONLY A WEAK RIPPLE IN FLOW UNDERCUTTING THE RIDGE WILL
MOVE EASTWARD ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE STATE ON THURSDAY.
UPSTREAM PATTERN SOLUTION DIFFERENCES WILL BE FAIRLY ACADEMIC FOR
NEW MEXICO ON FRIDAY...AS ECMWF DEEPENS CLOSED LOW NEAR SAN
FRANCISCO BAY...GFS KEEPS THE SYSTEM SHALLOWER AND MORE
OFFSHORE...AND NEW MEXICO SITS UNDER GENTLE ZONAL FLOW.
DISAGREEMENT BECOMES MORE POINTED BY THE WEEKEND...AS ECMWF SHIFTS
CLOSED LOW TO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ON SATURDAY AND PUTS NEW MEXICO
UNDER UPSTREAM RIDGE...WHILE GFS PHASES WEAKER OFFSHORE EAST
PACIFIC LOW WITH REMNANTS OF THE MID CONTINENT TROUGH...AND PUTS
NEW MEXICO UNDER THE ENSUING TROUGH. WITH ECMWF ENJOYING BETTER
RUN TO RUN CONTINUITY ON THE CALIFORNIA CLOSED LOW
ARRANGEMENT...WILL TILT EXTENDED END OF THE FORECAST THIS DIRECTION FOR
NOW AND KEEP EYE ON FUTURE RUNS WITH EXPECTATION OF IMPROVED
CONSENSUS.

OVERNIGHT...A GOOD BIT COOLER OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY OVER THE EAST
AND CENTRAL...AND HAVE BUMPED UP FREEZE WATCHES TO WARNINGS FOR
ALL BUT CHAVES COUNTY...WHERE TEMPERATURES WILL STAY A LITTLE TO
THE WARM SIDE. HAVE ALSO ADDED UNION...HARDING...AND EASTERN SAN
MIGUEL TO THE PACKAGE TO SIGNAL A GOOD WIDESPREAD FREEZE FOR THESE
PLACES OVERNIGHT. HAVE ALSO ADDED EASTERN LINCOLN COUNTY...WITH
NORTHERN AREAS IN LINE FOR FREEZING TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT. COLD
FRONT SQUIRTING THROUGH CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN GAPS WILL PUT SOME
MODEST GUSTS OUT OVER THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY FROM LATE TONIGHT INTO
THE WEE HOURS SATURDAY MORNING. WIND SPEEDS SHOULD DROP IN TIME
FOR COLDEST TEMPERATURES TO BE REACHED IN THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY A
FEW HOURS BEFORE SUNRISE.

FOR SATURDAY...COLD FRONT WILL PUSH WEST AND SOUTH OF THE FORECAST
AREA...AND WARMING FOR ALL BUT THE EXTREME SOUTH WILL RETURN
TEMPERATURES BACK TO WITHIN 3 OT 8 DEGREES BELOW MID OCTOBER
NORMALS. WEAK SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL SUPPORT ONLY
LOCALIZED BREEZINESS...WITH BEST CHANCES ALONG THE INTERSTATE 40
CORRIDOR ON THE EAST SLOPES AND ADJACENT EASTERN PLAINS OF THE
CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN. SEASONABLE FREEZES CONTINUE NORTH AND
WEST...BUT SOMEWHAT WARMER OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES WILL LIFT THE
EAST AND SOUTH ABOVE FREEZING OVERNIGHT.

FOR SUNDAY...SURFACE LOW DEEPENING OVER THE NORTHERN TEXAS
PANHANDLE WITH CONTINUED RUN OF NORTHWEST WINDS ALOFT IN
CIRCULATION ABOUT GARGANTUAN MID CONTINENT TROUGH. WARM UP
CONTINUES WITH TEMPERATURES FLIRTING WITHIN A FEW DEGREES OF LATE
OCTOBER NORMALS. SOMEWHAT TIGHTER SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL
BRING BREEZY WESTERLY WINDS UP A NOTCH OVER THE EASTERN SLOPES AND
ADJACENT EASTERN PLAINS OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN SUNDAY
AFTERNOON. A FEW DEGREES WARMER SUNDAY NIGHT...WITH SEASONABLE
FREEZES STILL MOSTLY NORTH AND WEST AND ABOVE FREEZING SOUTH AND
EAST. COLD FRONT KNOCKING ON THE NORTHEAST DOOR LATE SUNDAY NIGHT
WILL CROSS OVER INTO NORTHEAST NEW MEXICO BY EARLY MONDAY MORNING.

FOR MONDAY...WEEKEND TEMPERATURE GAINS WILL REVERSE...AS COLDER
AIR SPREADING SOUTH AND BULGING WESTWARD ACROSS NEW MEXICO WILL
RETURN DAYTIME TEMPERATURES TO 6 TO 12 DEGREES BELOW LATE OCTOBER
NORMALS. WINDS BACKED OFF TO EASTERLY...BUT MODEST SURFACE
PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL KEEP BREEZES LOCALIZED THROUGH MONDAY
AFTERNOON. A FEW SPOTTY RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE A
POSSIBILITY FOR THE NORTHERN SANGRE DE CRISTO RANGE...CLOSE TO THE
COLORADO LINE DURING THE DAY ON MONDAY WITH LITTLE ACCUMULATION.
AN UP TICK IN CLOUD COVER WILL KEEP OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES
REASONABLY STEADY DESPITE THE INFLUX OF COOLER AIR.

OUTLOOK...TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...MID CONTINENT TROUGH DAWDLING
EASTWARD AS UPSTREAM RIDGE MAKES VALIANT ATTEMPT TO OVERSPREAD NEW
MEXICO BY MIDWEEK. WITH RIDGE COLLAPSING WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WEAK
ZONAL FLOW WILL BECOME ESTABLISHED GRADUALLY OVER NEW MEXICO BY
THURSDAY...AS A WEAK DISTURBANCE MOVING ALONG THE MEXICO BORDER
WILL KEEP A FEW EXTRA CLOUDS AND POSSIBLY A SPOTTY SHOWER OR TWO IN
THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE STATE THROUGH THURSDAY. GENERALLY MODEST
WIND SPEEDS ALL THREE DAYS...WITH SOME LOCALIZED BREEZES POSSIBLE
OVER THE EAST ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. LEVEL TEMPERATURE TRENDS
THROUGH WEDNESDAY...WITH TEMPERATURES WARMING UP ON THURSDAY IN
BROAD LOW LEVEL SOUTHERLY FLOW.

SHY

.FIRE WEATHER...
A DRY AND COOL NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH THE
WEEKEND. TEMPERATURES SLIGHTLY BELOW SEASONAL AVERAGES FOR MID TO
LATE OCTOBER ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A COOL AND DRY
AIR MASS ALONG WITH WEAKENING WINDS WILL ALLOW FOR EFFICIENT
RADIATIONAL COOLING AND GOOD TO VERY GOOD RELATIVE HUMIDITY
RECOVERIES BOTH SATURDAY AND SUNDAY MORNINGS...ESPECIALLY VALLEYS
AND BASIN BOTTOMS.

ANOTHER...SLIGHTLY STRONGER BACKDOOR FRONT WILL PUSH SOUTHWARD INTO
EASTERN NM SUNDAY NIGHT...THEN WEST THROUGH THE CANYONS OF THE
CENTRAL MOUNTAINS MONDAY MORNING. THIS FRONT LOOKS QUITE SIMILAR TO
THE CURRENT FRONT...BRINGING CHANCES FOR LIGHT RAIN TO THE FAR
NORTHERN SANGRE DE CRISTO MOUNTAINS EAST TO THE RATON AND JOHNSON
MESAS BUT DRY ELSEWHERE. THE AIR MASS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FRONT IS
SLIGHTLY DEEPER...ALLOWING IT TO PUSH FARTHER WEST...PERHAPS AS FAR
WEST AS THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE BY MIDDAY WEDNESDAY.

A STRONG UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD EASTWARD
TOWARD THE STATE TUESDAY...CONTINUING TO FORCE STORM SYSTEMS WELL
NORTH IN NORTHWEST CANADA THROUGH AT LEAST MID WEEK. QUITE A BIT OF
UNCERTAINTY CONTINUES IN THE EXTENDED FORECAST PERIOD. THE FAR MORE
CONSISTENT RUN TO RUN EUROPEAN WEATHER PREDICTION MODEL CONTINUES TO
INDICATE THAT A COUPLE OF SYSTEMS WILL UNDERCUT THE RIDGE TOWARD THE
MIDDLE AND END OF NEXT WEEK...POSSIBLY BRINGING A SLIGHT CHANCES FOR
SHOWERS TO MOST AREAS OF THE FORECAST AREA THURSDAY AND AGAIN NEXT
WEEKEND.

.AVIATION...
18Z TAF CYCLE
