Area forecast discussion, Jul 7, 2:56 PM MDT, 2 hours 39 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
256 PM MDT TUE JUL 7 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A SLIGHTLY LESS ACTIVE PATTERN IS EXPECTED THROUGH WEDNESDAY
HOWEVER THERE WILL STILL BE AT LEAST SCATTERED STORMS AROUND
THE AREA. AN UPWARD TREND IS ANTICIPATED THURSDAY FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY AS A MONSOON MOISTURE SURGE MOVES NORTH OUT OF OLD
MEXICO. MORE HEAVY RAINFALL WITH AN INCREASED FLOOD THREAT IS
POSSIBLE DURING THIS PERIOD. THE HIGH PRESSURE CENTER WILL
ATTEMPT TO MOVE WEST INTO NEW MEXICO BY THIS WEEKEND...FORCING
THE MONSOON PLUME INTO ARIZONA. TEMPERATURES WILL WARM UP INTO
THE 90S AGAIN BY THE WEEKEND.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
AFTER A WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAINFALL EVENT THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS
OVER CENTRAL AND EASTERN NM...TODAY IS RELATIVELY MUCH QUIETER.
HOWEVER...THAT SAID...A WELL DEFINED CONVECTIVE COMPLEX OVER
WEST CENTRAL NM IS ADVANCING EAST INTO THE JEMEZ MTS AT 3 PM WITH
VERY HEAVY RAIN AND GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS. OTHER VIGOROUS STORMS ARE
ALSO DEVELOPING ALONG THE CONT DVD AND MOVING MORE SWIFTLY EAST
TODAY THAN PREVIOUS DAYS. LATEST 18Z NAM12/HRRR AND 12Z SPC SSEO
PRODUCT FAVORS THE CONVECTIVE CLUSTER MOVING NORTH OF ABQ AND
FORCING HEAVY RAINFALL INTO THE JEMEZ...SOUTHERN SANGRES...AND
THE SANTA FE AREA THIS EVENING.

OVERALL NOT MUCH CHANGE ADVERTISED FOR WEDNESDAY THROUGH THE
WEEKEND. STILL EXPECTING SLIGHTLY LESS COVERAGE WEDNESDAY WITH
FOCUS FOR STORMS AROUND THE HIGHER TERRAIN. A MONSOON BURST IS
PROGGED TO SURGE NORTHWARD OUT OF OLD MEXICO AND TRIGGER A BIG
UPTICK IN DAYTIME AND NIGHTTIME PRECIPITATION THURSDAY THROUGH
SATURDAY. THE THETA-E RIDGE AXIS APPEARS SKINNIER FROM WEST TO
EAST COMPARED TO THE MOST RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL EVENT...SO THE
FOCUS FOR HEAVY RAINFALL SHOULD STRETCH BETWEEN THE CENTRAL MT
CHAIN AND THE ARIZONA BORDER. BY SATURDAY THEN UPPER HIGH IS
STILL SHOWN TO RETROGRADE WEST OVER NM AND FORCE THE PLUME INTO
AZ. MAX TEMPS WILL RISE BACK TOWARD NORMAL FOR EARLY/MID JULY.

GUYER

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE WITH DAY TO DAY
VARIABILITY DEPENDING ON THE POSITION OF THE UPPER HIGH AS WELL AS
THE TIMING OF ANY UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY LOOK
TO BE PARTICULARLY ACTIVE WITH A MONSOON BURST PATTERN IN PLACE
WHILE WEDNESDAY AND SUNDAY LOOK TO BE A LITTLE DRIER AND LESS
ACTIVE. COOLER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES PERSIST UNTIL AT LEAST
SUNDAY.

THE UPPER LEVEL HIGH IS CURRENTLY POSITIONED SOUTH OF NEW MEXICO
WITH AN UPPER LOW ROTATING OFF THE CALIFORNIA COAST. IN THE WAKE OF
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT RACED THROUGH THE EASTERN PLAINS ON
MONDAY...COOL...MOIST AND STABLE AIR IS IN PLACE LIMITING WETTING
RAIN EAST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS WITH POOR TO FAIR VENTILATION.
ELSEWHERE...THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND
WILL MOVE TO THE EAST. FAIRLY SMALL FOOTPRINTS OF WETTING
RAIN...SOME LOCALLY HEAVY...ARE EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING.

BY WEDNESDAY THE UPPER LOW WILL MOVE ONSHORE AND AN UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE AHEAD OF THE TROUGH WILL CROSS COLORADO. SOME DRIER MID
AND LOW LEVEL AIR WILL WORK INTO NEW MEXICO FROM THE WEST.
STILL...AMPLE MOISTURE WILL REMAIN FOR MAINLY HIGH TERRAIN SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS...THOUGH A DOWNTREND IN ACTIVITY AS COMPARED TO
MONDAY AND TUESDAY IS EXPECTED. OVERNIGHT RECOVERIES WILL REMAIN
GOOD TO EXCELLENT.

ON THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...THE UPPER HIGH STARTS TO BUILD TO THE EAST
AS THE UPPER LEVEL LOW NEARS THE GREAT BASIN. THIS PATTERN WILL
SUPPORT THE TRANSPORT OF MOISTURE FROM MEXICO NORTHWARD OVER THE
STATE...RESULTING IN AN INCREASE IN WETTING RAIN FOR MOST AREAS
EXCEPT POSSIBLY THE EXTREME NORTHWEST AND EXTREME EAST CENTRAL
ZONES.

AS THE UPPER HIGH EDGES CLOSER TO NEW MEXICO...THE MOISTURE PLUME IS
NUDGED TO THE WEST...CLOSER TO OR OVER ARIZONA...WITH A GRADUAL
WARMING AND DRYING TREND SATURDAY AND ESPECIALLY SUNDAY. VENTILATION
LOOKS TO REMAIN GOOD OR BETTER THROUGH SATURDAY...WITH WIDESPREAD
POOR TO FAIR VALUES FORECAST FOR SUNDAY.

05

&&

.AVIATION...
18Z TAF CYCLE
ANOTHER ACTIVE DAY IN STORE FOR THE FORECAST AREA...WITH STORMS
AND SHOWERS AS WELL AS IFR TO MVFR CIGS AND VISIBILITIES. WITH
MOIST UPSLOPE IN PLACE...EXPECT MOST LOCATIONS JUST EAST OF THE
CENTRAL MOUNTAINS TO MAINTAIN CEILINGS THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST
PERIOD SOME AREAS OF MVFR CONDITIONS PERSISTING. PATCHY FOG
PERSISTS ACROSS THE EAST PLAINS...THOUGH LIFTING OF THE CLOUD DECK
AND EVEN SOME CLEARING IS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON THOUGH CEILINGS
LOOK TO REDEVELOP OVERNIGHT. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ALREADY DEVELOPED
OVER THE WESTERN HIGH TERRAIN AND EXPECT THIS ACTIVITY TO INCREASE
IN AREAL COVERAGE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON ESPECIALLY OVER THE
NORTHERN HIGH TERRAIN AND THE AREA BETWEEN THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE
AND THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS. STORM MOVEMENT WILL BE TO THE EAST
AROUND 15 MPH. THUNDERSTORMS WILL CHANGE OVER TO AREAS OF RAIN
OVERNIGHT...AGAIN MAINLY CENTRAL LOCATIONS. BY LATE MORNING ON
WEDNESDAY...ANOTHER ROUND OF HIGH TERRAIN THUNDERSTORMS WILL
DEVELOP...THOUGH COVERAGE LOOKS TO BE A LITTLE LESS THAN RECENT
DAYS. 05
