.DISCUSSION...
The latest Aviation Discussion is included below.

.AVIATION...
Low level moisture is increasing over the region this evening with
light fog expected to develop at KMAF, KHOB and KINK early on.
Think low clouds and fog will become more widespread through tonight
so have IFR ceilings, and MVFR and IFR visibility in fog
developing at KMAF, KHOB, KMAF and KPEQ by 10/11Z. The low
clouds and fog will last until at least 10/15Z before mixing out.
Southerly surface winds will increase and become gusty at most
terminals through 10/18Z.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 254 PM CST MON NOV 9 2015/
An upper level trough is digging southward and moving eastward along
the western conus. There is westerly upper level flow over the CWA.
Temperatures today are expected to warm up to above normal with
south to southwest winds returning to the area. Temperatures are
expected to warm up even further into the upper 70s across the
Permian Basin on Tuesday as the previously mentioned upper trough
moves closer to the region.
The upper level trough will begin to move north of the region with
the base of the trough moving over the CWA Wednesday morning. This
will result in gusty west to northwest winds on Wednesday across the
CWA as a Pacific front moves into the area. Winds will be very
strong in the Guadalupe Mountains so a High Wind Watch has been
issued from Tuesday evening through Wednesday afternoon. Critical
fire weather conditions are possible for Wednesday, so see fire
weather discussion below. Temperatures Wednesday behind the front
will be about 10 degrees cooler than the previous day.
Temperatures Thursday morning across southeast New Mexico will
likely hit the freezing mark or below so a Freeze Warning may be
needed for these areas. After the upper trough passes, mostly
zonal flow with west to southwest upper level winds will be over
the area Thursday. Temperatures will remain cool as the surface
ridge remains near the area. Another upper trough passing over the
Upper Midwest will send colder air southward into central Texas on
Friday and will result in slightly cooler temperatures for the
CWA. An upper low meandering across the desert southwest will get
caught up in the upper flow and move over New Mexico on Saturday.
This upper low will provide an increase in upper lift and
increased rain chances across the area. Models indicate this upper
low will move northward towards the Central Plains on Sunday with
precipitation lingering across the area. Temperatures are expected
to remain below normal through the weekend into early next week.
FIRE WEATHER...
Wednesday will be dry and windy, leading to a few hours of elevated
or near critical fire weather conditions. West winds will increase
late Tuesday night and persist through Wednesday afternoon.
Meanwhile, drier air will filter into the region and relative
humidities will decrease to near or slightly below 15 percent across
portions of southeast New Mexico, Trans Pecos, western Permian Basin
as well as portions of the Big Bend region. Sustained winds speeds
across these areas will be near 20-30mph with gusts near 40mph
possible. Although these stronger wind speeds will overlap with the
lower relative humidities for a few hours Wednesday afternoon,
observed fuel moisture is still fairly high and ERC percentiles are
low. As a result, a Red Flag Warning will not be issued at this time
but we will continue to monitor the elevated fire weather
potential.
