Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Midland/Odessa TX
631 AM CDT Mon Jun 14 2021

.UPDATE...
Morning Thunderstorms.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Storm coverage has expanded during the past hour so expanded
slight chance over the east and added isolated pops to the west.
A few of these storms could be marginally strong.

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR. Current storms in the east should stay just east of MAF so
did not include in TAFS. A few showers will be possible this
morning near CNM. Low chance of afternoon storms too.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 326 AM CDT Mon Jun 14 2021/

DISCUSSION...
Center of upper ridge near the 4 Corners region today will move
little over the next several days but a trough moving along the
US/Canadian border late Tuesday will flatten it out. On Friday
this high will slowly sink southward moving to near Baja Saturday.
This will produce mild wx for the region.

Temperatures will continue their slow downward trend today reaching
normal on Tuesday as the upper ridge moves off.  Readings may go up
a degree Wednesday before leveling out the rest of the week. While
the plains will be in the 90s can expect highs of 100 degrees or
more along the Pecos and Rio Grande each day.  Lows will be in the
60s and 70s.  Temperatures are expected to increase again next
weekend.

Have a slight chance of thunderstorms east today then south tonight
as a strong shortwave rolling around the east side of the ridge
skirts the area.  Not expecting these storms to become severe. The
rest of the forecast looks dry for now.
