(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1245 PM CDT Mon Jun 28 2021
MVFR conditions will continue with CIGs lowering and raising
through out the day. Rain is expected at all terminals with the
heaviest being out west in Southeast New Mexico. TS is likely for
all sites this afternoon with KMAF being the least likely, but TS
is still possible. AMD will be made for lowering CIGs and TSRA as
storms progress this afternoon into the evening. Winds maybe gusty
from thunderstorms but the prevailing direction will remain out
of the east. Light to mod turb is possible over the area this
afternoon.

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 308 AM CDT Mon Jun 28 2021
Additional rounds of heavy rainfall will be possible throughout
the day today and into tonight. A Flash Flood Watch is now in
effect thru 12Z Tuesday. An environment that is rich with moisture
remains in place over the forecast area. PWATs are 2-3 sd above
normal, a stationary front is draped across region, and a nearly
stationary ULL is situated over far W TX. All of these factors
will contribute to continued heavy rainfall and potential flash
flooding. Latest CAMs including 3km NAM and HRRR place the highest
QPF totals across Eddy County and the HWY 54 corridor. Storm
totals thru Tuesday morning could reach upwards of 2-3" across SE
NM. An additional 1-2" will be possible along and N of the I-20
corridor where flash flood guidance would easily be overcome due
to recent rainfall and already saturated soils. Temperatures will
remain well below seasonal norms today and Tuesday due to
persistent cloudiness and abundant moisture.
&&
.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 308 AM CDT Mon Jun 28 2021
Rain chances begin diminishing on Wednesday as an upper level
trough lifts to the north and high pressure over the southeastern
U.S. builds over Texas. The highest PoPs late in the week will be
over the western CWA, in closer vicinity to the trough and
diminish to the east as the influence of high pressure increases.
The high pressure building in will also cause temperatures to
increase with highs approaching normal levels by Friday. It is
then that a low pressure system over the Great Lakes sends another
cold front into the area on Saturday. This front, combined with a
series of upper disturbances associated with the low will increase
instability and once again create a decent chance for rainfall
over the weekend. Week cold air advection and increasing cloud
cover will drop temps a few degrees continuing refreshingly cool
weather. The NBM appears to be handling temps and PoPs pretty well
and the extended forecast remained pretty close to this guidance.
