AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
245 PM MST FRI NOV 15 2013

.DISCUSSION...
THE ATMOSPHERE IS UNDERGOING DRAMATIC CHANGE TODAY WITH MOISTURE
ADVECTION IN ADVANCE OF A POTENT SHORTWAVE TROUGH. THE 12Z KABQ
UPPER AIR DATA REVEALED A PWAT OF 0.27 INCH...WHICH IS SLIGHTLY
BELOW NORMAL FOR THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER. HOWEVER...THE PWAT IS
INCREASING FAST AND IS FORECAST TO PEAK THIS EVENING NEAR 0.55
INCH...WHICH IS CLOSE TO 2 STANDARD DEVIATIONS ABOVE NORMAL. AS OF
2 PM MST...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WERE
ALREADY MOVING ENE ACROSS CENTRAL AND WESTERN PORTIONS OF OUR
AREA AND THIS ACTIVITY IS FORECAST TO EXPAND THROUGH THIS EVENING
BEFORE BECOMING TERRAIN DOMINATED OVERNIGHT. SNOW LEVELS ARE
STARTING OFF HIGH...AROUND 9500 FEET...BUT WILL LOWER OVERNIGHT TO
NEAR 7500 FEET. BY THEN...SNOW WILL BE FOCUSED OVER THE PEAKS AND
WEST-FACING SLOPES OF THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS. WILL UPGRADE THE
TUSAS MOUNTAIN ZONE TO A WINTER STORM WARNING FOR TONIGHT THROUGH
SATURDAY NIGHT AND ADD THE SANGRE DE CRISTOS NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN
PEAKS (ABOVE 9500 FT). THE HIGHEST SNOWFALL TOTALS FROM TONIGHT
THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT WILL LIKELY BE OVER THE HIGHER PEAKS IN THE
TUSAS...WHERE AMOUNTS NEAR ONE FOOT ARE POSSIBLE. IN THE SANGRES...
AMOUNTS BETWEEN 5 AND 9 INCHES ARE LIKELY ABOVE 9500 FEET...WITH 3
TO 5 INCH AMOUNTS BELOW. WILL ISSUE AN ADVISORY FOR THE JEMEZ
MOUNTAIN ZONE AND THE WEST/EAST SLOPES OF THE SANGRES FOR LESSER
SNOW AMOUNTS. BLOWING SNOW WILL BE AN ISSUE... ESPECIALLY SATURDAY
AND SATURDAY NIGHT ACROSS THE SANGRE DE CRISTOS AND TUSAS
MOUNTAINS. MAIN SNOW IMPACTS WITH THIS EVENT WILL BE FELT AT AND
ABOVE SKI RESORT LEVELS.

VERY STRONG WINDS ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH A JET STREAM...FORECAST TO
INCREASE TO 130KTS AT 250MB ON SATURDAY ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW
MEXICO...WILL MOVE OVER OUR AREA BEGINNING EARLY SATURDAY MORNING
AND CONTINUE THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING. SOME FORECAST ZONES IN THE
HIGH WIND WATCH HAVE BEEN CONVERTED TO A HIGH WIND WARNING...WITH
OTHER ZONES ADDED OR CONVERTED TO A WIND ADVISORY. THE STRONGEST
WINDS...LIKELY DAMAGING...ARE FORECAST ALONG THE EAST SLOPES OF
THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN AND ADJACENT HIGHLANDS AND WILL PEAK
SATURDAY NIGHT. PLACES LIKE LAS VEGAS...CLINES CORNERS AND RUIDOSO
WILL LIKELY SEE THE HIGHEST GUSTS. WINDS ARE FORECAST TO RELAX
SIGNIFICANTLY MOST AREAS BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

THE TREND FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK IS DECREASING WESTERLY FLOW WITH
GRADUALLY INCREASING PRESSURE HEIGHTS LEADING TO A WARMING
TREND...WITH ABOVE TO WELL ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES FORECAST BY
MID WEEK. LOW FORECAST CONFIDENCE BEYOND WEDNESDAY WITH THE 12Z
MEDIUM RANGE MODEL SOLUTIONS DIFFERING SIGNIFICANTLY ON THE EXTENT
AND TIMING OF A LATE WEEK TROUGH AND POTENTIAL STRONG BACKDOOR
COLD FRONT. IF THE 12Z ECMWF WORKS-OUT...THU/FRI WILL BE MUCH
COLDER AND UNSETTLED.

11

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL PERSIST THROUGH MOST OF THE WEEKEND WITH
STRONG WINDS...RAIN...AND HIGH ELEVATION SNOW IMPACTING MUCH OF NEW
MEXICO. FLOW ALOFT IS QUICKLY STRENGTHENING AND TURNING
SOUTHWESTERLY AS A VIGOROUS TROUGH ARRIVES. PRECIPITATION WILL
CONTINUE TO FAVOR THE CENTRAL TO WESTERN ZONES OF NM THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING. SOME ISOLATED
EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE. SURFACE/20FT WINDS ARE
CURRENTLY MEETING OR CLOSE TO REACHING CRITICAL THRESHOLDS IN THE
CENTRAL TO EASTERN ZONES...BUT DEWPOINTS HAVE BEEN HOLDING HIGH
ENOUGH TO KEEP MINIMUM RH FROM PLUMMETING TOO LOW. WINDS AT RIDGE
TOPS WILL CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN TONIGHT...WITH HIGHER SPEEDS
SPREADING FROM WEST TO EAST AND MOUNTAIN WAVE ACTIVITY LIKELY
ENSUING BEFORE DAWN SATURDAY DOWNWIND OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN.
PRECIPITATION MAY RECEDE IN SOME AREAS BY SATURDAY MORNING...BUT THE
NORTHERN MOUNTAINS WILL REMAIN AN AREA FOR CONCENTRATED
ACCUMULATIONS OF A FEW TO SEVERAL INCHES...POSSIBLY OVER A FOOT ON
SOME HIGHER PEAKS ABOVE 10KFT OF THE SAN JUAN/TUSAS AND SANGRE DE
CRISTOS.

THE STRONG WINDS ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TO PUMMEL NM SATURDAY WITH
WINDS AT 10KFT ESTIMATED TO REACH 50-75 MPH NEAR AND DOWNWIND OF THE
CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN. MUCH OF THE PLAINS WILL ALSO SEE STRONG
WINDS AT THE SURFACE/20FT LEVEL WITH GUSTS TO 50 MPH BY SATURDAY
AFTERNOON. SOME INDIRECT AND SUBTLE MOISTURE ADVECTION WILL KEEP RH
FROM DROPPING INTO CRITICAL RANGES SATURDAY AFTERNOON...BUT THE
NORTHEASTERN PLAINS MAY FALL TO 20-25 PERCENT. TEMPERATURES WILL BE
COOLING IN THE NORTH CENTRAL TO NORTHWESTERN ZONES...BUT ONLY SMALL
CHANGES EXPECTED ELSEWHERE IN THE STATE. WINDS WILL REMAIN STRONG
ALONG AND JUST EAST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN THROUGH SATURDAY
NIGHT...BUT MAY DECOUPLE AND DECREASE OVER LOWER ELEVATIONS.

FLOW WILL SHIFT MORE WEST NORTHWESTERLY ON SUNDAY...WEAKENING
CONSIDERABLY. THERE WILL NOT BE A GREAT DEAL OF COLD AIR SPILLING
INTO THE STATE INTO SUNDAY...THUS TEMPERATURES WILL HOLD CLOSE TO
AVERAGE IN THE CENTRAL TO WESTERN ZONES...CREEPING SLIGHTLY ABOVE IN
THE EASTERN PLAINS. BY MONDAY ZONAL FLOW WILL BE ESTABLISHED WITH
LIGHTER SPEEDS ALOFT. THIS WILL ALLOW POOR VENTILATION TO SET UP
INTO MONDAY AND TUESDAY. SOME UNCERTAINTIES ARE DEPICTED BY MID WEEK
WITH THE ECMWF ADVERTISING A SIGNIFICANT BACK DOOR FRONTAL INTRUSION
WHILE THE GFS SHOWS A SLOWER AND MORE SUBTLE BREAKDOWN TO THE ZONAL
FLOW REGIME.

&&

.AVIATION...

BLAST THROUGH. FIRST DISTURBANCE LYING FROM CENTRAL ROCKIES TO
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WILL SWEEP TO THE FOUR CORNERS BY 06Z LATE
TONIGHT AND USHER IN TRAIL OF TURBULENT WESTERLY FLOW WITH A SECOND
