.DISCUSSION...

See aviation discussion below.

&&

.AVIATION...
MVFR CIGS should become VFR at all terminals by late this
afternoon. Thunderstorms are expected to erupt along a stationary
front late this afternoon and continue into tonight across
portions of southeast New Mexico and west Texas. Confidence was
high enough to include a tempo MVFR VSBY group in tsra at KMAF
and KINK this evening with prob30 groups at KHOB and KPEQ. Will
continue to monitor the latest trends.

12
&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 613 AM CDT Fri Apr 10 2020/

DISCUSSION...

Please see the 12z aviation discussion below.

AVIATION...
Scattered to broken skies across most terminals (sans KMAF and
KHOB) around 7k ft according to latest obs. Guidance has backed
off on timing and sustained impact of MVFR cigs forecast to move
in. Satellite showing some low cigs beginning to develop across
Pecos river and areas east of KMAF. Have pushed back the arrival
time, but sustained the MVFR ceilings arriving for all terminals.

Sites will return to VFR by the afternoon with TSRA development
likely between 18-23z. Guidance still on fence of coverage and
when/where exactly the storms will impact, but expecting all
sites to be under a chance of TSRA between 18-06z. With such a
large disagreement in guidance, did not want to venture beyond the
VFR improvement time frame, but future impact is likely.

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 505 AM CDT Fri Apr 10 2020/

DISCUSSION...

A very active few days of weather are in store for West Texas and
Southeast New Mexico, courtesy mainly of a menacing closed trough
over SoCal.  Currently, WV imagery shows a ridge over the south
central CONUS, but this will begin moving east today as the west
coast trough begins nudging inland.  At the sfc, 50+ dewpoints are
crawling up the Pecos Rvr Valley, assisted by a 30kt LLJ as per VWP.
This moisture is forecast to stay banked up against the higher
terrain throughout the day and into tonight, resulting in afternoon
mucapes in excess of 1500 J/kg, mainly over the Stockton Plateau, as
well as dcapes in excess of 1000 J/kg.  Mid-lvl lapse rates increase
to 7C/km by 18Z, and increase further by 00Z.  Deep-lyr shear is
already in place over the region, and is forecast to remain 40-50kts
for the next 24 hrs.  Convection could develop as soon as late
morning (GFS) out west, and move east thru the afternoon and into
the evening hours.  Large hail/damaging winds will be possible,
w/the HRRR, HREF, and SREF suggesting the Pecos supercell making an
appearance.

Saturday, the SoCal trough continues moving east, to the AZ/Sonora
border by 00Z Sun.  Leeside troughing on the Front Range ahead of
this feature will induce westerly sfc flow out on the higher
terrain, sharpening up a dryline and mixing it east, fairly early,
to the Permian basin/lwr Trans Pecos by late morning.  Isolated
convection will be possible along/east of the dryline during the
day, but redevelopment will be possible Sat night as the dryline
briefly retreats NW back into the lwr Tran Pecos.  Strong deep-lyr
shear rounding the base of the trough and mid-lvl lapse rates of up
to 9C/km suggests a few hours of nocturnal svr wx over the lwr Trans
Pecos before strong westerly sfc flow scours moisture east Sun
morning.  As the trough approaches Sat afternoon, a marginal mtn
wave signature is forecast over the Guadalupes.  We'll keep the
watch going for there, and extended a bit into Sat night.  Winds on
Sunday are a bit more in question.  MOS products, usually a good
indicator of high wind events, suggest a widespread wind event Sun
as the trough passes thru the region, and a watch issued.  However,
at 12Z Sun, the GFS, ECMWF, and CMC are in fairly good agreement
w/placing the trough over the NM/Texas border, and in central Texas
by 18Z.  This timing suggests MOS numbers may be overdone, and we're
reluctant to issue any watch products attm.  We've toned down
windspeeds somewhat, and will mention this in the HWO.

Sun afternoon behind the trough, the always-reliable Easter cold
snap arrives as a strong cold front invades the area.  The NAM
brings it into the upper Colorado Rvr Valley 18-21Z, but this will
probably hang up due to diurnal heating, and come thru a few hrs
later.  Temps Monday morning could drop to freezing over the nrn
zones Mon morning, and possible Tue/Wed mornings as well.  This is
too far out for a watch, but we'll mention this in the HWO.  Monday
night, frozen precip will be possible nrn Lea County as a
disturbance moves thru the Texas Panhandle, before dry wx
follows into the extended under zonal flow aloft.
