What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Midland/Odessa, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this special weather statement went out at Aug 2, 6:32 PM CDT, 2 hours 4 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 2, 6:32 PM CDT, 2 hours 4 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Midland/Odessa TX
632 PM CDT TUE AUG 2 2016

.DISCUSSION...

&&

.AVIATION...
Scattered storms moving across Upper Trans Pecos... SE NM... and
Western Permian Basin. Have included tempo TSRA in most TAFs
through 03z... could see gusts in excess of 40kts near storms.
After 03z expect VFR with little activity.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 235 PM CDT TUE AUG 2 2016/

DISCUSSION...As of 2:30 PM CDT Tuesday...Thunderstorms have fired
up along the southern and western mountains. It is yet another
hot afternoon with above normal temps which should not be a shock
to anyone. As of 2 PM it was 97 at MAF which would make it the
34th consecutive day above 95 degrees (tied for fourth
place). Cooler temps can't come soon enough.

It looks like the above normal temps will continue for at least
the next seven days as the seemingly permanent subtropical ridge
remains anchored over the southern tier of states. The ridge is
currently centered over southeast Texas. The center of the ridge
will ever so slowly retrograde to the Texas Panhandle into next
weekend. This will keep the best moisture and lift over the
southern and western mountains with upslope flow as the low/mid
level flow remains southeast. As of now it doesn't look like any
convective activity will make it into the Plains...but it will be
monitored. High temps will hang around the century mark for the
Plains for the next week...up to 108 along the Pecos and Rio Gande
River Valleys...and the 90s in the mountains.

Medium range models are indicating that the above normal temps
will continue thru the next ten days with mainly aftn/evening
thunderstorms over the southern and western mountains.
