AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
327 PM MDT TUE MAR 25 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
AN UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM WILL CROSS CENTRAL NEW MEXICO TODAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY MORNING...AND BRING RAIN SHOWERS TO PORTIONS OF THE RIO
GRANDE VALLEY AND EASTERN PLAINS. BREEZY TO GUSTY WINDS WILL
DEVELOP FOR MUCH OF NORTHERN AND CENTRAL NEW MEXICO WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON AND PERSIST THROUGH MUCH OF THE WORK WEEK. ACCUMULATING
SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING FOR
PORTIONS OF THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS. DRIER AND WARMER WEATHER IS
EXPECTED DURING THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
SIGNIFICANT MOISTURE ADVECTION ONGOING ACROSS PORTIONS OF WESTERN
AND EASTERN NM AHEAD OF AN UPPER LEVEL LOW SITUATED OVER NW
MEXICO. THIS UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL CROSS CENTRAL NM TODAY
THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING AND TAP INTO PWATS NEARLY 2 SD ABOVE
NORMAL. UPPED POPS AND QPF ACROSS EAST CENTRAL PLAINS TO MATCH
GREATEST MID LEVEL CONVERGENCE DEPICTED IN RECENT MODEL TRENDS.
SHOWER ACTIVITY WILL SLOWLY TAPER OFF THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING.
KNOCKED HIGH TEMPS DOWN A FEW DEGREES WEDNESDAY AS CLEARING OF
CLOUD DECK EXPECTED TO DELAY HEATING...AND DIMINISH WARMING EFFECT
FROM DOWNSLOPE WINDS.

A SERIES OF WEAK AND FAST MOVING UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES WILL
CROSS NORTHERN NM WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. EXPECT PROLONGED
PERIODS OF BREEZY TO GUSTY WINDS...COOLING TEMPERATURES...AND
CONTINUED SHOWER ACTIVITY ACROSS THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL
MOUNTAINS. SNOW ACCUMULATION WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR THE NORTHERN
MOUNTAINS WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING AS 700MB TEMPS
COOL BELOW FREEZING. NO WINTER HIGHLIGHT AT THIS TIME AS AMOUNTS
STILL ON THE LOW SIDE...BUT FOLLOWING SHIFTS WILL MONITOR TRENDS.

THE FINAL DISTURBANCE WILL EXIT FRIDAY WITH A WEAK RIDGE SLIDING
OVER THE AREA SATURDAY. DRIER AND WARMER WEATHER WILL RETURN AT THIS
TIME. MODELS CURRENTLY DEPICT THE NEXT DISTURBANCE TO SKIRT
NORTHERN NM SUNDAY...WITH ONLY DRY AND WINDY CONDITIONS EXPECTED
FOR NORTHERN AND CENTRAL NM. THERE IS A POSSIBILITY FOR DRYLINE
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO DEVELOP EARLY NEXT WEEK ACROSS THE FAR
EASTERN PLAINS.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
AS EXPECTED ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED IN THE WEST
CENTRAL MOUNTAINS THIS AFTERNOON. WITH DEWPOINT TEMPERATURES AROUND
10 TO 15 F...ITS UNLIKELY THAT MUCH IF ANY OF THIS PRECIPITATION IS
REACHING THE GROUND. LOOK FOR ADDITIONAL DRY THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND
WEST OF THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE INTO THIS EVENING.

AS AN UPPER LOW OPENS INTO A TROUGH AND CROSSES NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS
NEW MEXICO...MOISTURE WILL SURGE NORTHWARD INTO CENTRAL AND EAST
CENTRAL PARTS OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND EVEN SOME THUNDERSTORMS SOUTH OF I-40. WETTING PRECIP
WILL BE SPOTTY WEST OF THE SANDIA/MANZANO AND GALLINAS
MOUNTAINS...BUT LOCATIONS EAST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN HAVE A
BETTER CHANCE OF AROUND A TENTH OF AN INCH OF PRECIPITATION TONIGHT
INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING.

THE PRESENT SYSTEM WILL EJECT NE OF NM BY MID DAY WEDNESDAY...THEN
AND ANOTHER UPPER TROUGH WILL CROSS CO AND NORTHERN NM FROM THE WEST
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THIS SYSTEM AND ANOTHER ONE FOLLOWING QUICKLY ON
ITS HEELS SHOULD WRING OUT SOME ADDITIONAL...LOCALLY
WETTING...PRECIP ALONG AND WEST OF THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS WEDNESDAY
NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT. A FEW INCHES OF SNOW WILL ALSO BE
POSSIBLE IN THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS OVER THIS TIME PERIOD. SOUTH OF
THESE SYSTEMS THE POLAR JET STREAM WILL CROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN
NM...WITH THE STRONGEST SPEEDS CROSSING WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO
THURSDAY. AT THE SAME TIME...A COUPLE OF DEEP SURFACE LOWS WILL
DEVELOP IN SE UT AND ALSO EASTERN CO. THE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT
AND STRONG WINDS ALOFT WILL RESULT IN WIDESPREAD GUSTS IN THE 40 TO
50 MPH RANGE ACROSS MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA WEDNESDAY...THEN AGAIN
ALONG AND EAST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN THURSDAY.  WILL
CONTINUE THE ONGOING FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR THE NE PLAINS ON
THURSDAY DUE TO SOME UNCERTAINTY ABOUT HOW MUCH...IF ANY...PRECIP
WILL ADVECT AS FAR NE AS THAT AREA.

AFTER HIGH TEMPERATURES NEAR TO 11 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL ON
WEDNESDAY...READINGS WILL TREND DOWNWARD THROUGH FRIDAY WHEN THEY
WILL BOTTOM OUT A FEW TO 7 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL.  THEN...HIGHS WILL
REBOUND AGAIN THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE
CROSSES.  THE RIDGE AXIS WILL CROSS SATURDAY ALLOWING SOUTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT TO STRENGTHEN ON SUNDAY...WHEN HIGHS SHOULD PEAK 6 TO 14
DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL. ANOTHER POTENT LEE TROUGH IS ALSO EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP SUNDAY ENABLING WESTERLY SURFACE WINDS TO BECOME BREEZY TO
WINDY. THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR WIDESPREAD CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER
CONDITIONS TO DEVELOP SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. ANOTHER WEAK
RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE IS THEN EXPECTED TO CROSS ON MONDAY ALLOWING
WINDS TO WEAKEN SOME...BUT TEMPERATURES MAY ACTUALLY BE A LITTLE
COOLER THAN SUNDAYS READINGS DUE TO A COLD FRONT THAT WILL CROSS ON
SUNDAY.

.AVIATION...
18Z TAF CYCLE
WITH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE SURGING NORTHWARD ACROSS THE E AND MID
LEVEL MOISTURE SURGING NORTHWARD ACROSS THE WEST...LOOK FOR
CEILINGS TO DEVELOP TODAY. INITIALLY THEY WILL BE VFR...BUT
MVFR/IFR CEILINGS ARE EXPECTED TONIGHT ACROSS MUCH OF THE E PLAINS
AND POSSIBLY IN THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY. MOSTLY DRY/GUSTY TS/SHRA
THIS AFTN ALONG AND W OF THE CENTRAL MT CHAIN WILL TRANSITION TO
WETTER SHOWERS AND STORMS TONIGHT AS A WAVE OF PCPN SHIFTS NEWD
ACROSS THE SE TWO THIRDS OF NM. CANT RULE OUT THUNDER THIS EVENING
AT KABQ AND KSAF...OR EMBEDDED THUNDER LATER TONIGHT AT KROW AND
KTCC. THE WEATHER SHOULD CLEAR OUT QUICKLY WEDNESDAY
MORNING...ONLY FOR SHOWERS TO REDEVELOP ALONG AND W OF THE N MTS.
STRONG SW WINDS WILL ALSO DEVELOP BY MID DAY WEDNESDAY.
