Area forecast discussion, Jun 21, 6:47 PM CDT, 8 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Midland/Odessa TX Issued by National Weather Service San Angelo TX 647 PM CDT Fri Jun 21 2019 .DISCUSSION... && .AVIATION... Look for VFR conditions to continue through 00Z Sunday. Some thunderstorms will continue into this evening; however, timing and location confidence too low to include any thunderstorms in any of the terminals, except VCTS in the Fort Stockton terminal, until 02Z this evening. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued Issued by National Weather Service San Angelo TX/ DISCUSSION... Models this forecast cycle remain very consistent, when compared to previous runs. The upper flow over West Texas and Southeast New Mexico will continue from the southwest, at least through Sunday afternoon. Then, another upper trough axis will move out of the southern Rockies and into the Plains. Meanwhile, some convection may develop along and near a dryline; thus, this potential, although a small potential, deserves at least 20 PoPs, for mainly our eastern counties this evening, as well as Saturday and Sunday evenings. Otherwise, for this next work week, the forecast is mainly dry, except for perhaps afternoon convection over the Davis Mountains a couple of days. FIRE WEATHER... Dry and breezy conditions are expected to develop behind a dryline this afternoon with minimum relative humidity dropping to 8-15 percent across the Guadalupe Mountains and the southeast New Mexico Plains. Despite ERC values mainly in the 25 to 50th percentile, RFTI's will likely range from 3 to 5. Similar conditions may develop Saturday afternoon. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
