...FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 830 PM CDT THIS 
EVENING FOR NORTH CENTRAL BREWSTER COUNTY...

At 543 PM CDT, local fire department reported flash flooding on the 
western half of Marathon where 2-3 feet of water was observed on 
Avenue B and other local roads. Between 1 and 2 inches of rain have 
fallen. Additional rainfall amounts up to 0.5 inches are possible in 
the warned area. Flash flooding is already occurring.

HAZARD...Flash flooding caused by heavy rain.

SOURCE...Law enforcement reported.

IMPACT...Flash flooding of small creeks and streams, urban areas,
         highways, streets and underpasses as well as other poor
         drainage and low-lying areas.

Some locations that will experience flash flooding include...
  Marathon.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood 
deaths occur in vehicles.

In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are 
potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded 
roads. Find an alternate route.

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

.KEY MESSAGES...
Updated at 209 PM CDT Sun Jun 29 2025

- Daily shower/storm chances into mid week for much of the region.
  Severe weather not expected, but gusty winds, heavy rain, and
  small hail expected in stronger storms.

- Flash flooding possible each day through mid week, particularly
  for the Davis Mountains and surrounding foothills.

- Near to below average high temperatures and mild low temperatures
  into mid week, then a warming trend in both high and low
  temperatures into the weekend.

.SHORT TERM...
(This afternoon through Monday night)
Issued at 209 PM CDT Sun Jun 29 2025

The forecast remains pretty similar to that of the past couple of
days. Terrain forcing is generating thunderstorms over the Davis
Mountains. These thunderstorms will increase in coverage through the
afternoon and evening. Outside of the Davis Mountains (where storm
chances are 50-70%), the best thunderstorm chances will be along and
west of the Pecos River (20-40%). Yet again, outflow boundaries from
prior convection coupled with weak disturbances in the flow aloft
should allow a few isolated to scattered thunderstorms to migrate
into the Permian Basin of West Texas (10-30% chance, with chances
decreasing from west to east). Of course, isolated instances of
flash flooding remains a concern, especially in and around the Davis
Mountains. Storms begin to wane later tonight into Monday morning.
Lows once again bottom out in the 70s and upper 60s for most.

This pattern continues tomorrow, with a couple of small changes. A
weak front (more of a wind shift) will near the area Monday
afternoon, providing an additional focus for thunderstorm
development over the northern Permian Basin. As a result, more
numerous thunderstorms are expected by tomorrow afternoon and
evening (40-60% chances for most of the region). Because soil
moisture is high from previous rains, storm training is expected,
and PWATs are still well above climatological norms (MAF's sounding
this morning showed a PWAT of 1.40 inches, which is above the 90th
percentile), a Flood Watch has been issued for locations along/west
of the Pecos River and central/western portions of the Permian
Basin. This watch extends from tomorrow afternoon through the
evening. Otherwise, also expect slightly cooler highs and lows
tomorrow (about 3-5 degrees cooler than today) due to a slight
decrease in 500mb heights.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday through Saturday)
Issued at 209 PM CDT Sun Jun 29 2025

The extended forecast continues to be a rainy one for much of the
CWA. A weak ridge positioned over the Rockies translates across the
Great Plains over the course of this week. At the same time, weak
short waves undercut the ridge from northern Mexico and across West
Texas and southeast New Mexico. Plenty of moisture will be fed into
the area from the south and help keep up monsoon-like rain chances
for almost the entirety of the long term. Tuesday through Thursday
will see 30-50% PoPs across much of the region. Showers and storms
will be isolated to scattered in nature, so rain will not be
constant and not every location will see the same amount of rain.
Ensembles show a most likely solution of a half in to an inch for
areas west of the Pecos River and slightly lower amount to the east
for the Permian Basin and Stockton Plateau. However, with the
pattern showing a continued lack of strong synoptic flow, training
storms will remain a threat with periods of heavy rain leading to
localized flooding. Further flood products may be needed to
highlight this hazard, particularly for the higher terrain areas.

With anomalous moisture and plenty of cloud cover from showers
and storms, daytime highs end up below normal in the mid to upper
80s for a large portion of the area. The Rio Grande Valley/Big
Bend still reach into the low 90s. Low to mid 90s return by the
end of the week and into next weekend. Overnight lows stay near or
just above normal each night in the upper 60s to mid 70s as low
level moisture holds on and limits cooling.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1224 PM CDT Sun Jun 29 2025

VFR conditions expected through the period. Yet again, showers and
thunderstorms are expected to develop this afternoon. Therefore,
have included PROB30s for most sites except MAF and CNM. For these
two sites, impactful showers and thunderstorms will still be
possible in the afternoon and evening, but confidence was too low to
warrant mention in the TAF. Otherwise generally light southerly
winds continue, becoming more southeasterly towards the end of the
period.
