...New AVIATION...

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 241 AM MST Fri Feb 2 2024

A storm system will continue to bring a few to several inches of
snow to the mountains today through Saturday night, with a few
inches as low as 6500 feet near the Colorado border. Lower
elevations will receive mostly light rain. High temperatures will
trend cooler with readings bottoming out near 1991 to 2020
averages to around 14 degrees below them on Saturday. The storm
system will also bring strong winds. After breezy to windy
conditions today, damaging wind gusts in the 45 to 65 mph range
are forecast Saturday and Saturday night. Wind gusts up to 50 mph
may then linger along and southeast of the central and south
central mountains Sunday morning. After warmer, drier and less
windy conditions to start the coming work week, another storm
system will cross around mid week with widespread wetting
precipitation along and west of the central mountain chain, the
potential for heavy snow in the mountains, and breezy to windy
conditions.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Saturday)
Issued at 241 AM MST Fri Feb 2 2024

The deep upper low spinning offshore of the WA/OR coast looks in
place for early February, but the more noteworthy feature is found
farther south (just north of the 30N parallel) in the form of a
stout jet (170 kt at 300 mb). This jet segment speeding over the
Pacific and across the upper Gulf of CA, and soon into northern
Mexico, is exhibiting 3 to 4 standard deviations above climatology,
looking at the zonal wind component from the NAEFS. This will allow
a broad vort max to swing inland and across NM today, bringing rain
and snow along with a Pacific front. Rain and high elevation snow
are expected to continue spreading over western and central NM
through the late morning with showers and even a few thunderstorms
persisting into the afternoon. Scattered showers and storms may even
make into the eastern plains today, but these will be less
widespread. Snow totals in high mountainous zones will be the
primary impact of concern today with a few to several inches
expected in most of these. Earlier forecast amounts in some of the
northern mountain zones were already teetering on warning amounts,
and it looks like there is sufficient accumulation forecast to
justify a conversion of the Winter Storm Watch to Warning and even
an upgrade for the Tusas mountains. The secondary concern will be
winds today and tonight which have previously been covered with a
Wind Advisory.

However, winds become the front and center concern by Saturday
morning, as the vort max evolves and lee-side cyclogenesis ensues
over northeast NM and the OK/TX panhandles. A vigorous mid level jet
will then be juxtaposed over the west central and central high
country of NM Saturday, and strong to severe surface winds are
expected to buffet these areas. A High Wind Watch will be hoisted
this morning to account for these Saturday winds which will be
stubborn to relax through Saturday night. By Saturday, the leading
edge of strongest large scale ascent will be well east of NM, but
wrap around dynamics and healthy orographics amid stiff westerlies
will continue to bring steady snow to the northern mountains with a
few more inches of accumulation above 9,000 feet. Temperatures will
start to cool today, and by Saturday will be running 5 to 10 degrees
below normal in many, but not all, zones.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday night through Thursday)
Issued at 241 AM MST Fri Feb 2 2024

Wrap around snow will continue from the Sangre de Cristo Mountains
eastward near the CO border Saturday night as the upper level low
pressure system exits gradually southeastward over the TX/OK
border. A few to several inches of additional snow accumulation
are expected, bringing storm total accumulations in the Sangre de
Cristo Mountains to 8-14 inches with locally higher amounts over
20 inches. The east slopes of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and
Capulin area look to accumulate a few to 4 inches of snow, with
upwards of 8 inches possible on Raton Pass.

Meanwhile farther south, damaging winds are expected as a strong
northwest-to-southeast speed maximum in the polar jet crosses NM
and northern Mexico with 700 mb wind speeds from 45 to 65 kt.
MOS guidance suggests surface wind speeds for this event may peak
in strength Saturday evening with gusts reaching around 55-65 mph
from Mount Taylor, the southern Jemez Mountains, and southern
Sangre de Cristo Mountains southward, and northwest wind gusts
from 45-55 mph across much of the southeast plains. The tail end
of the jet streak aloft is forecast to linger over central and
southeast parts of the forecast area through Sunday morning, so
winds will weaken only gradually late Saturday night. Gusts from
40-50 mph will probably continue through much of Sunday morning
along and southeast of the the central and south central
mountains.

A ridge of high pressure will cross Sunday through Monday night
with a warming trend and dry weather. High temperatures should
peak Tuesday a few to around 12 degrees above 1991-2020 averages.
However, rain showers and very high terrain snow showers will
also arrive along and west of the continental divide on Tuesday
as our next storm system approaches from the west. Models depict a
broad upper level trough crossing Tuesday night through Wednesday
night or Thursday with westerly and southwesterly upslope flow
precipitation. They also depict the system crossing with a tap of
subtropical moisture, so there is a good chance of 0.10-0.30" of
liquid precipitation for lower elevation locations west of the
central mountain chain, and 0.30-1.00" of liquid equivalent
precipitation in the mountains. Locations above 7500 feet will be
favored for snow accumulation until Wednesday night, when 700 mb
temperatures look to bottom out around -6 to -8 C. The potential
exists for heavy snow in the mountains, but at this time it looks
like most of the moisture will shift east of NM by Wednesday
night, so lower elevation snow amounts may only reach a few
inches. Southwest winds also look to strengthen with the storm
system with breezy to windy conditions areawide Wednesday, then
westerly winds may remain fairly strong along and east of the
central mountain chain Thursday.

&&

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1057 AM MST Fri Feb 2 2024

A strengthening upper level storm system and associated Pacific
cold front will move east across the region today. Rain showers
and high terrain snow will continue with MVFR cigs/vsbys around
the northern and western mts today. Southwest to west winds will
increase today with gusts of 20 to 30 kt common at terminals. A
few gusts may reach 45 kt around KSRR and KROW today, especially
beneath any showers. Lower cigs/vsbys will then focus over the
northern mts tonight with snow continuing thru Saturday in the
Sangre de Cristo Mts. Winds will become more west to northwest
Saturday with much stronger gusts of 45 to 55 kt expected along
and south of I-40. Areas of BLDU will develop across southeast NM
while BLSN impacts the high terrain.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 241 AM MST Fri Feb 2 2024

A Pacific storm system will bring cooler temperatures along with
rain and high elevation snow accumulations to northern and central
New Mexico today and Saturday. The northern mountains will fare the
best for snow accumulations, but western peaks could also receive a
few inches. The increased moisture and wetting precipitation will be
welcome and should mitigate the threat of critical fire weather, but
there will still be big concerns about strengthening winds, somewhat
today, but more-so on Saturday when gusts of 40 to 65 mph will be
common. These gusts will be strong enough to cause damage in some
central mountain/highland locations Saturday afternoon and into the
overnight. Winds will not be quite as severe on Sunday, but still
strong (gusts of 30-40 mph) over the central highlands, mountains
and the far eastern plains with drier conditions returning. Lighter
winds are forecast for Monday as a ridge of high pressure crosses
NM, but this will be short-lived with a another round of weather
disturbances bringing more wind, rain and mountain snow during the
middle to latter part of next week. Smoke ventilation rates still
appear to plummet Monday and Tuesday, but improved dispersion rates
should follow by Wednesday.
