Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Midland/Odessa TX 638 AM CDT Sun Sep 22 2019 .UPDATE... Canceling Flash Flood Watch. && .DISCUSSION... The Flash Flood Watch for the southern CWA was set to expire at 12z. However as the threat of widespread heavy rain is not expected in that area today went ahead and cancelled the watch. A chance of showers and thunderstorms does remain across much of the area today but any heavy rain should be very localized. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 610 AM CDT Sun Sep 22 2019/ DISCUSSION... See 12z aviation discussion below. AVIATION... Low ceilings are expected at HOB until around 16z; otherwise, VFR conditions will occur. There is a slight chance of thunderstorms during the TAF period. Winds will generally be light out of the south but will be somewhat variable. PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 335 AM CDT Sun Sep 22 2019/ DISCUSSION... One upper trough crosses the Rockies onto the plains today as the next one moves ashore the WA/OR coast. This next trough will develop a cut off low over the Great Basin Monday that moves down across AZ to Mexico Tuesday. This low will wobble around a couple days before lifting NE across NM late Thursday/early Friday. As it does a third upper trough/low will swing down across WA and slowly sink across OR and CA Saturday and Sunday. As all this happens the region will stay on the western edge of the ridge which remains over the SE US. Rain fell across much of the area Saturday and a broad swatch of light to moderate rain continued from Presidio to Snyder overnight. Panther Junction... Rio Grande Village... Chisos Basin and Lamesa all reported over an inch of rain. This ongoing rainfall should continue to weaken and slowly drift east the rest of the night. Will leave the Flash Flood Watch in effect until it expires at 12z. There will be a lower chance for additional showers and thunderstorms across much of the area today and tonight. With an upper low setting up west of the area for the first of the week will have a chance of more showers and storms each day. Temperatures today and Monday should be a little cooler with the clouds and rain. Expect to see widespread 80s today and Monday with 90s returning Tuesday and continuing the rest of the week. A weak front is expected to move down into the South Plains today but should not make it into the CWA. Looking out the next 10 days no fropa is expected so will be little day to day change in temperatures. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
