...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM...

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Saturday afternoon)
Issued at 329 AM CST Fri Feb 2 2024

WV imagery shows an inverted upper trough over California this
morning, leaving West Texas and Southeast New Mexico under
progressive southwest flow aloft.  The trough will quickly traverse
the desert southwest today, arriving over the Four Corners/New
Mexico by 00Z Saturday.  This will develop a mountain wave signature
over the Guadalupes by mid-morning, if not before.  During the
afternoon, these stronger winds are expected to move onto the plains
in the lee of the mountains.  Farther south, a belt of 45-55kt 700mb
winds will bring high winds to the higher elevations of the Davis,
Chinati, and Chisos Mountains.  Advisory conditions are anticipated
on the adjacent plains, and we've issued warnings/advisories to
cover this.  Thicknesses will drop w/the approach of the trough and
westerlies usher in cooler temperatures, shaving 3-4F off
yesterday's highs.

As shortwaves round the base of the trough, isolated convection may
develop beginning in the west late morning, then moving east during
the afternoon.  However, forecast soundings depict a rather dry
boundary layer, so virga bombs and little rainfall will be the
likely result.  However, during the late afternoon, models sharpen
up a dryline over the eastern fringes of the CWA, and this will open
up a brief window for a line of thunderstorms late this
afternoon/evening.  However, forecast soundings keep lower level
moisture fairly shallow, suggesting more of a wind threat than
anything else.  This activity will move east fairly quickly during
the evening, as westerlies will remain elevated throughout the
night.  Mixing will keep overnight lows ~ 9-11F above normal.

Friday night, the trough is forecast to close over northeast New
Mexico, and traverse to the Texas Panhandle/north central Texas by
00Z Sunday.  Strong 50-60kt W-NW 700mb winds are forecast to round
the base of the trough Saturday, making for a windy and dusty day,
especially over the west.  Earlier shift left a high wind watch
beginning 06Z Saturday, so we went ahead and upgraded to a
warning/advisory through early Sunday morning.  This may need to be
adjusted, especially winds in the Permian Basin/Western Low Rolling
Plains, if the trajectory of the trough changes between now and
then.  A Pac front behind the trough will usher in temperatures
Sunday afternoon around 10F cooler than Saturday.

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday night through Thursday)
Issued at 329 AM CST Fri Feb 2 2024

The good news? Above-normal temperatures each afternoon with morning
lows above freezing basically area-wide through Friday. The bad? No
significant precipitation expected in this next week, and wind
remains the only weather of interest in the long term.

Speaking of wind, a upper level low will elongate over Texas
Saturday night, and the strong northwest winds that peaked Saturday
afternoon will be ongoing into early Sunday morning despite the
loss of diurnal mixing. A High Wind Warning is in effect for
every location along and west of the Trans Pecos, and nearly every
other zone will be under a Wind Advisory through sunrise on
Sunday as the gradient remains tight over the area. As the upper
low moves across the Red River Valley Sunday with an associated
surface low moving into East Texas, winds will diminish a bit but
remain elevated (20-30mph with higher gusts) through Sunday
evening, likely resulting in periods of blowing dust. Lingering
cool air behind a Pacific front that moves through this evening
will limit much of a warm up on Sunday despite compressional
warming from the westerly winds. As such, highs on Sunday should
only reach the low to mid 60s for most, still slightly above
normal for early February, and Monday may be similar as upper
level ridging starts to build back in. Thicknesses increases
substantially Tuesday and Wednesday with the upper ridge situated
over Texas and New Mexico, and highs both afternoons may return to
the upper 60s/low 70s.

A low off the coast of CA transitions to an open trough Wednesday
afternoon, becoming absorbed into the upper level pattern and
bringing some needed rain to the Desert Southwest on Thursday. At
this point our area looks to miss out on the precipitation with
this next system, but a redevelopment of gusty downsloping west
winds may bring a return of well-above-normal temperatures for the
end of the week.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1037 PM CST Thu Feb 1 2024

VFR conditions will prevail next 24 hours. Surface winds will veer
to southwest overnight and Friday morning, then to west and
increasing/becoming gusty Friday afternoon as a negatively-tilted
upper trough swings through the region. Forecast soundings
develop a cu field w/bases 5-7kft AGL during the afternoon.
Convection will be possible, but chances are too low for a mention
attm. Timing of the trough is such that gusty westerlies will
continue into Friday night.
