Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Midland/Odessa TX
320 AM CST Mon Nov 14 2016

.DISCUSSION...
Will start the day with an upper ridge over CA with a trough over
the Southeast.  This ridge will build eastward across the area
resulting in warm and dry conditions this week.  The next upper
trough will move ashore the West Coast Wednesday quickly progressing
eastward and crossing the Rockies late Thursday as it lifts NE
across the plains.

Have some high clouds over the center of the area streaking in front
of the Supermoon early this morning but expect skies will be mostly
clear today.  At the surface a weak front/boundary will come through
early today but it should end up actually being warmer this
afternoon due to the upper ridge.  The wind will come around to the
north this morning but quickly comes back around to the south
tonight.  A stronger front will blow through Friday... until then
look for unseasonably warm temperatures for W TX and SE NM.
Temperatures could climb to near 80 over much of the area by midweek
before the front knocks it back down into the 60s.  Should see lows
down into the 30s tonight for portion of the northern CWA and also
near MRF.  Guidance for Marfa indicating it may reach that temp...
and have seen 33 and 34 there the last two mornings.  MRF could
reach freezing tonight... will go ahead and issue a freeze warning
for the Davis Mountains and Marfa Plateau as clear skies... light
wind... and dry air combine.  Will go with a dry forecast with no
mention of precipitation.
