The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

Area forecast discussion, Nov 4, 3:17 AM MDT, 1 hour 11 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service El Paso TX/Santa Teresa NM
317 AM MDT Fri Nov 4 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
An upper level low pressure system will move across
the southwestern United States while moist unstable air flows into
the region. This weather pattern will bring showers and
thunderstorms to much of the Borderland today through Saturday. A
few of the storms may produce large hail...damaging winds and
heavy rainfalls with flooding. Westerly winds will bring
seasonably warm dry weather Sunday and Monday. Another upper
disturbance with a cold front will result in slightly cooler
temperatures with slight chances of thunderstorms Tuesday through
Thursday.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Upper low pressure system was centered over south central Arizona
early this morning. Weak impulse ahead of it was moving northward
through southern New Mexico initiating scattered convection over
the cwa early this morning.

The upper low will lift slowly to the north northeast today and
tonight and be located over southwestern Colorado by late Saturday
morning. However associated primary trough axis will lag to the
southwest through Arizona into tomorrow afternoon. This scenario
will sustain 40 to 50 kt west to southwest mid level flow across
southern New Mexico and west Texas today and tonight and also
place the cwa in left front quadrant of 80 kt jet streak extending
across northern Mexico. Thus dynamic forcing expected aloft today
and tonight. Meanwhile at low levels an east to southeast wind
will continue into the early afternoon with moisture inflow
resulting in surface dewpoints above 50 F and precipitable water
well above normal from .8 to 1.1 inch most areas. With mucape
values around 500 to 1000 j/kg combination of moisture...instability
and lift will generate scattered to numerous showers and
thunderstorms today and tonight.

Low level east to southeast winds under 40 to 50 kt 6 km flow from
the west southwest will sustain strong deep layer shear of around
60 kt with an low level helicity above 300. These large values
indicate strong updraft rotation and supercell development are quite
possible with any storm. With wet bulb zero heights below 8000
feet agl large hail will be a primary weather threat. The abundant
moisture plus possible echo training also indicate risk of heavy
rain and flash flooding. Finally the high helicity due to veering
wind profiles means even a strong tornado is possible today and
tonight along with damaging downdrafts.

On Saturday upper trough axis moves across eastern Arizona in the
afternoon before advancing into New Mexico in the evening. Low
level southeast winds will maintain moisture transport over the
eastern half of the cwa where mucapes will be rather high between
1000 and 1500 J/kg. With 30 to 40 kt southwesterly mid level flow
the shear will again remain strong enough to support more severe
convection with large hail and damaging winds on
Saturday...especially east of the Rio Grande.

Westerly winds and subsidence behind the trough will bring
seasonably warm mostly dry weather Sunday and Monday. Another
upper low with a weak cold front will produce slightly cooler
weather with slight chances of thunderstorms Tuesday and
Wednesday.

&&

.AVIATION...
Scattered to numerous areas of mvfr with a few areas of ifr
ceilings and visibility in showers and thunderstorms...mainly
after 21z. Hail...wind gusts to 60 kt and torrential rainfalls
possible with a few storms. Surface winds also gusting from 30 to
40 kt...especially along western slopes.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
An upper level low pressure system will move across
the southwestern United States while moist unstable air flows into
the region. This weather pattern will bring showers and
thunderstorms to much of the Borderland today through Saturday. A
few of the storms may produce large hail...damaging winds and
heavy rainfalls with flooding. Westerly winds will bring
seasonably warm dry weather Sunday and Monday. Another upper
disturbance with a cold front will result in slightly cooler
temperatures with slight chances of thunderstorms Tuesday through
Thursday.
