Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service El Paso Tx/Santa Teresa NM
301 AM MDT Thu Jun 1 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
An upper level low pressure system will drift slowly eastward
across the southwestern United States today through Saturday
causing showers and thunderstorms with locally heavy rains over
much of the Borderland. High pressure aloft will then build over
the southern Rocky Mountains causing warmer temperatures with
decreasing chances of rain early next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Little change in larger scale pattern from past 2 days. At low
levels high pressure over the central United States is combining
with large surface low west of the divide to induce low level
easterly winds across southern New Mexico and west Texas. This
flow is sustaining transport of Gulf of Mexico moisture and
supporting surface dewpoints in the 40s and 50s across the region.
Meanwhile weak upper low was drifting slowly eastward into the
southwestern Arizona/northwestern Mexico region with cyclonic
circulation pulling up mid and high level moisture into the CWA.

The upper low will continue slow eastward drift near or south of
the southern Arizona border through Friday with associated trough
axis moving into New Mexico and west Texas Friday and Saturday. In
addition models suggest weak short waves will be ejecting
northeastward ahead of the low into the CWA today/tonight. The
continued low level easterly flow and low and mid level moisture
transport will maintain above normal precipitable water amounts
around .75 to 1.1 inch today through Saturday and low level
moisture plus surface heating will keep air mass unstable with
afternoon MUCAPES around 600 to 1200 J/kg the next 3 days. Thus
expect generally scattered convection today through Saturday.
Primary threat will be locally heavy rains due to abundant and
deep water vapor content plus slow storm movement. Forecasted K
index values around 35 to 40 reflect this hazard. In addition wet
bulb zero heights around 9000 feet agl and DCAPE's above 1000
J/kg indicate several storms may produce marginally severe hail
and strong downdrafts.

Trough axis will slide further east and should be east of the CWA
by Sunday morning as upper ridge enters the region from the west.
This ridge will move very slowly into New Mexico Monday and
Tuesday with subsidence causing warmer slightly above normal
temperatures and some decrease in convection. However a surface
thermal or heat low will also become located over central New
Mexico by Monday and act as a low level convergence mechanism
providing shallow lift. Thus despite the ridge and warmer more
stable air aloft expect the risk of mainly isolated storms will
persist for much of next week.

 &&

.AVIATION...valid 01/12z-02/12.
A few areas of MVFR or IFR ceilings and visibility from showers
and thunderstorms especially from 20z to 06z. Isolated storms may
produce wind gusts to 50 kt and hail up to an inch in diameter.
Otherwise expect SCT-BKN050-100 with surface winds at or below
15KT through the period.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
n upper level low pressure system will drift slowly eastward
across the southwestern United States today through Saturday
causing showers and thunderstorms with locally heavy rains over
much of the Borderland. This will keep the fire danger low. High
pressure aloft will then build over the southern Rocky Mountains
causing warmer temperatures with decreasing chances of rain early
next week.
