Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Albuquerque NM
611 PM MDT SUN JUN 5 2016

.AVIATION...
00Z TAF CYCLE
Widely scattered clusters of thunderstorms will continue through
04 or 05z west of central mt chain...but longer to the east of
there. Hail...wind gusts from 30 to nearly 50 kts and localized
and relatively brief mvfr conditions poss with stronger storms
near and east of the central mt chain with some brief
precipitation shaft mt obscurations. Terminal sites most likely to
be impacted include KLVS and to a lesser degree KTCC...KSAF...KAEG
and KROW. Right behind those sites would be KABQ. KFMN and KGUP
will stay dry. Storm activity will be a little less Mon aftn and
eve most areas with majority that do occur again across the ne
quarter to third of the state. Expect similar impacts to today
though chances overall a little lower. 43

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Thunderstorms much slower to develop today with slightly higher
heights translating in from AZ. South to southeast low level
winds also taking their time developing across the eastern plains.
One strong cell near San Ignacio not moving very much so flash
flooding could also be a concern for northeast NM during the
afternoon. Storm motion should increase late this afternoon as the
stronger NW flow aloft associated with a short- wave trough dropping
south-sewd through eastern CO moves over. Lift associated with PVA
gets into the mix early this evening across the northeast, helping
to organize a meso-scale convective system (MCS) across northeast
NM during the evening. 12Z runs are slightly farther west with
this feature and adjusted PoPs accordingly. Models agree that
Mora, Harding, San Miguel and Guadalupe counties are the likely
beneficiaries. Rainfall amounts in these counties btwn 00z- 12z
Monday range between one quarter and and one inch with locally
higher amounts possible. MCS is forecast to slowly weaken as it
propagates southward into east- central NM after midnight. A brief
period of strong (20G30kt) east winds will likely develop through
Tijeras Canyon and into the ABQ metro after between 04-09Z as the
rain cooled air associated with the MCS develop a meso- high.
Moderate southeast winds are forecast for the Santa Fe Metro.
These east and southeast winds send low level Gulf moisture
westward to the west- central mountains Monday morning. Vast
majority of mountain ranges favored for thunderstorms Monday
afternoon. Storm motion will be slow as the ridge axis moves
overhead so localized flash flooding will be a likely concern.
NAM12 develops another, albeit smaller, organized area of
convection across northeast NM Monday evening. This feature
propagates southeastward across the east- central plains Monday
night.

According to the NAM and GFS, drier air at all levels moves in
from the west Tuesday, ahead of an unseasonably deep upper level
trough/closed low over the Great Basin and AZ. ECMWF keeps the low
level moisture in place east of the central mountains Tuesday. Isolated
thunderstorms the most likely outcome from just east of the
central mountain chain crest ewd. The above mentioned trough ever
so slowly translates ewd Tuesday night and Wednesday. Models agree
that showers and thunderstorms will favor the NW half of the state
Wednesday afternoon and areawide Thursday.

12Z GFS remain bullish with QPF Friday through next weekend
associated with a deep southerly flow ahead of another
unseasonably deep closed low moving into the PACNW. ECMWF and
Canadian prog a more swly flow aloft, and don't tap near as much
subtropical moisture. GEFS mean and ECMWF mean are very close to
their respective operational runs so forecast confidence remains
low beyond Thursday.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Another active thunderstorm day is underway...with potential for
organization and good coverage of wetting rain as storms roll south
or southeast off of the Sangre De Cristo Mountains later today
across adjacent highlands and the eastern plains. West of the
Continental Divide...very dry air associated with the ridge of high
pressure over Arizona is mixing down...with hot...dry and unstable
conditions prevailing.

Chances for wetting precipitation will gradually focus further north
and east each day through Wednesday with dry air creeping further
east across the state...as the upper ridge breaks down and a very
slow moving Pacific low advancing eastward from over Nevada. Haines
values of 6 will be common across western and central New Mexico
through at least Wednesday with temperatures generally above normal
across much of the area.

Moisture will begin to come back Thursday...then ramp-up Fri/Sat
with increasing chances for wetting precipitation. The setup by the
end of the workweek will be Monsoon-like with the upper high well to
the east and a west coast trough allowing for northward moisture
transport from Mexico. Temperatures will trend down toward the end
of the workweek and into the weekend thanks to the added moisture...
clouds and potential rain-cooling. Haines values will take a dip as
well...mainly Fri/Sat.
