AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
309 AM MST SAT NOV 22 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
NEAR TO ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES TODAY WILL DROP TONIGHT AND
SUNDAY AS A COLD FRONT PLUNGES FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST THROUGH
THE STATE. STRONG TO DAMAGING WINDS ARE POSSIBLE TONIGHT THROUGH
SUNDAY FOR MUCH OF CENTRAL AND WESTERN NEW MEXICO. THE STRONGEST
WINDS WILL BE FOUND ALONG AND JUST EAST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN
CHAIN WITH GUSTS MAY TOP 60 MPH. BLUSTERY CONDITIONS WILL
CONTINUE ON MONDAY. A GRADUAL WARM UP WITH LESS WIND IS ON TAP FOR
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY AS RIDGING SLOWLY BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
AS THE STORM SYSTEM THAT BROUGHT ABUNDANT CLOUD COVER TO THE STATE
YESTERDAY CONTINUES TO PUSH EASTWARD WELL SOUTH OF THE STATE...MUCH
MORE SUN AND WARMER TEMPERATURES ARE ON TAP TODAY. HAVE WARMED UP
TEMPS A FEW DEGREES ACROSS THE EAST DUE TO LEE SIDE TROUGHING AND
DOWNSLOPE WINDS. NEARLY ALL AREAS SHOULD BE AT OR ABOVE NORMAL
TODAY. THIS SHOULD BE ENJOYED...AS MUCH COOLER TEMPS AND BLUSTERY
CONDITIONS ARE ON THE WAY FOR TOMORROW AND MONDAY.

A SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE OVER NM SUNDAY IN FAST MOVING NORTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT. WINDS WILL ACTUALLY PICK UP TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY OVER HIGH
TERRAIN AND AREAS JUST DOWNSTREAM OF THE CENTRAL MTN CHAIN. WITH 700
MB WIND SPEEDS AOA 50KT...A FEW HIGH WIND GUSTS ARE LIKELY. MOUNTAIN
WAVE ACTIVITY IS ALSO LIKELY OVERNIGHT. MOUNTAIN WAVES MAY CRASH
TO THE SURFACE ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR BETWEEN RATON AND LAS
VEGAS...AS WELL AS ALONG I-40 NEAR CLINES CORNERS. SUDDEN AND
ERRATIC WIND GUSTS WILL BE POSSIBLE.

STRONG WINDS WILL BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD ON SUNDAY DURING THE DAY AS
A COLD FRONT PLUNGES IN FROM NW TO SE AND SOME MIXING OCCURS WITH
DAYTIME HEATING. WITH ALL THIS IN MIND...HAVE DECIDED TO UPGRADE THE
HIGH WIND WATCH TO A WARNING...AND START IT A FEW HOURS
EARLIER...AND HAVE ALSO HOISTED WIND ADVISORIES TONIGHT FOR THE
HIGHER TERRAIN AREAS NOT IN THE HIGH WIND WARNING...AND ADJACENT
HIGHLANDS. WILL ALSO ADD WIND ADVISORIES DURING THE DAYTIME SUNDAY
FOR THE CENTRAL VALLEYS AND THE NW PLATEAU.

IN ADDITION TO THE WINDS...MUCH COLDER TEMPS AND EVEN A CHANCE OF
SNOW WILL BE FOUND FOR THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS ON SUNDAY. AREAS OF
BLOWING SNOW MAY SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE VISIBILITY. IN GENERAL...1 TO
3 INCHES OF SNOW IS EXPECTED...THOUGH THE HIGHEST PEAKS OF THE
SANGRES MAY SEE 4 OR SO INCHES.

ANOTHER SHORTWAVE IN NW FLOW WILL SLIDE OVER THE STATE ON MONDAY.
TEMPS WILL DROP A FEW DEGREES FURTHER...BUT WINDS WONT BE AS STRONG.
THAT SAID...IT WILL STILL BE BREEZY TO WINDY ACROSS MOST CENTRAL AND
WESTERN AREAS...RESULTING IN WIND CHILL VALUES ONLY IN THE LOW 20S
TO LOW 30S IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AFTN. NORTHERN MOUNTAINS MAY SEE A
FEW MORE LIGHT SHOWERS FROM THIS SHORTWAVE...BUT NOTHING SIGNIFICANT
IS EXPECTED.

THOUGH THERE MAY BE A FEW MORE PERTURBATIONS MID WEEK IN THE FLOW
ALOFT...THE TREND WILL BE FOR A RIDGE TO DEVELOP BY LATE WEEK.
THUS...AFTER MONDAY...DRY WX IS FORECAST WITH A WARMING TREND
THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. BY LATE THURSDAY AND EARLY
FRIDAY...THE GFS SHOWS ANOTHER BACK DOOR COLD FRONT PUSHING INTO THE
PLAINS...BUT THE EC AND CMC SHOW NOTHING OF IT. STAY TUNED.

34

.FIRE WEATHER...
...STRONG WINDS SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...

TROUGH RACES TOWARD US FROM THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. THIS IS THE

ACCOMPANY THESE SYSTEMS. LESS WIND AND A WARMING TREND WILL FOLLOW
FROM TUESDAY INTO THANKSGIVING. A BACK DOOR COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP

COOLER WEATHER IN THE EAST FOR BLACK FRIDAY.

TEMPERATURES WILL DROP 10 TO 20 DEGREES OVER MUCH OF THE AREA WHILE
MIN RH VALUES COME UP 20 TO 30 PERCENT. ALL THE WIND AND RATHER HIGH
MIXING HEIGHTS WILL RESULT IN EXCELLENT VENT RATES VIRTUALLY AREA
WIDE.

ANOTHER SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL QUICKLY FOLLOW ON THE HEELS OF
SUNDAYS SYSTEM. ADDITIONAL CHILLY AIR WILL MAKE MONDAY THE COOLEST
DAY OF FORECAST PERIOD. LINGERING SNOW SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED OVER THE
NORTHERN MOUNTAINS. BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS WILL FAVOR THE WEST
AND CENTRAL AREAS...BUT NOT AS EXTREME AS TONIGHT AND SUNDAY. VENT
RATES WILL BE MOSTLY GOOD TO EXCELLENT MONDAY.

DRY AND MORE TRANQUIL WEATHER EXPECTED FOR TUESDAY INTO THANKSGIVING
DAY WITH A WARMING TREND. HIGHS WILL STILL BE BELOW NORMAL TUESDAY
BUT THEN NEAR NORMAL WEDNESDAY AND MOSTLY ABOVE NORMAL THURSDAY. A
BACK DOOR COLD FRONT COULD INVADE THE EAST LATE THURSDAY OR THURSDAY
