...New AVIATION...
.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 331 AM CST Mon Feb 27 2023
Overall, today will be much more tame than Sunday with the upper low
out of the picture and a more calm and zonal(west-east) flow aloft.
The region stays breezy, particularly in the Guadalupe, Delaware,
and Davis Mountains where a High Wind Warning will remain in effect
until this evening. Temperatures reach into the low to mid 70s for
most during the afternoon. Monday night lows settle into the upper
30s to low 40s, which is near or just above normal for this time of
year.
Tuesday is similar Monday with highs ending up a few to several
degrees warmer than the afternoon before. Skies remain mostly clear
aside from passing higher clouds. It will be quite dry with relative
humidities dropping near 10% over the forecast area during both
afternoons. Safe to say precipitation is not expected in the short
term. For more information regarding fire weather, read the
discussion below.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 331 AM CST Mon Feb 27 2023
Tuesday night, West Texas and Southeast New Mexico will be under
southwest flow aloft as the next upper trough begins digging down
the western CONUS. 700mb westerlies will be on the increase, with
the NAM maintaining a healthy mountain wave signature over the
Guadalupes. This will only increase throughout the week as the
trough approaches the area, and as leeside troughing develops on the
Front Range. For this reason, we've issued a long-fused high wind
watch for the Guadalupes/Delawares Tuesday night through Thursday
evening. Mixing overnight and cloud cover will keep overnight lows
above normal.
Wednesday, temperatures should be similar to Tuesday's, only a
little cooler northwest as thicknesses take a downturn with the
approach of the trough. Wednesday night, the upper trough is
forecast to reach southeast Arizona by 12Z Thursday, with precip
developing over the northwest/north zones after midnight and
Thursday. Southeast New Mexico and the Guadalupes down to
Candelaria could see a -RASN mix, and -SN at the higher elevations,
but little to no accumulations are expected.
Thursday, the upper trough arrives. This is forecast to pass
farther south than yesterday's and make it to the South Plains by
00Z Friday. The track/timing of this feature suggests another day
of widespread high winds over all but the northern zones. GFS 700mb
height gradients tighten up to 60m/100nm...not quite as tight as
yesterday, but close. The GFS brings the Pac front through earlier
than yesterday, so timing is a concern. The only questionable
variable is cloud cover over the northern CWA, which may temper
winds a bit. Even so, tight gradients may counter this
sufficiently. The Pac front will take afternoon highs below normal
all by the southeast zones. Thursday night, a cold front follows
the Pac front, bringing a freeze to all but the southeast CWA.
CAA continues Friday and Saturday, keeping temperatures below
normal. Return flow resumes Saturday night, under zonal flow aloft,
and temperatures should recover to well-above normal by Monday.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1132 AM CST Mon Feb 27 2023
VFR will continue throughout the period with some gradually
increasing high clouds. Winds stay largely out of the west through
this afternoon with some gusts developing within the next hour or
so, diminishing by sunset.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 331 AM CST Mon Feb 27 2023
* Critical fire weather conditions much of this week *
At 09Z, RH at KMAF is just 34%, and min RH this afternoon will be
critical area-wide. Residual westerly 20-ft winds will gradually
diminish throughout the day, but still be high enough for fire wx
concerns. RFTIs of 5-6 are expected this afternoon from SE NM south
to the Davis Mtns, with even some 7s in some areas. ERCs will be at
least 25th percentile of higher, with 1-hr fuels moistures 3-4% at
best, and 10-hr 50% or below. These are quite drier than what was
forecast 24 hours ago, as lower RH than what was expected manifested
yesterday. A 70+kt 500mb jet is forecast across SE NM, intersecting
a LLTR extending from the Permian Basin up through the Panhandle.
Considering what transpired yesterday, and in coordination w/other
offices, we've opted to issue a RFW all but the southern CWA.
Recovery all week will be modest at best, with 20-ft winds on the
increase through at least Thursday. Given this, ERCs look to only
increase, and fuel moistures decrease, so critical fire weather
looks likely through at least Thursday.
