125 PM MDT THU JUN 7 2001

SACS...SANGRES...JEMEZ HAVE ALREADY BOILED OVER AS OF 100 PM.
LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW...CLOUDS ARE BUILDING OVER THE SANDIAS ALSO.
TSTRMS OVER SACS WILL DRIFT WESTWARD WHILE TSTMS OVER SANGRES WILL
DRIFT OUT INTO PLAINS. DUE TO LACK OF SHEAR...DONT EXPECT ANYTHING
TO HOLD TOGETHER LONG...JUST SEND OUT OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES AND KICK
OFF MORE TSTMS.

GIVEN THE JUICY DEWPTS IN THE PLAINS WITH AN INCH PLUS OF
PRECIPITABLE WATER...A COUPLE THSND JOULES OF CAPE AND A MESS OF
OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES...EXPECT TSTMS TO GO WELL INTO THE NIGHTTIME
HOURS OVER THE EAST WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL POSSIBLE. WHETHER OR
NOT TO GO WITH A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE EAST TONIGHT WILL BE A
LAST MINUTE DECISION. BIGGEST DEPARTURE FROM GUIDANCE WILL BE IN THE
EAST FOR TONIGHT.

TSTMS MOVING WESTWARD INTO SOUTHWEST NEW MEXICO THIS EVENING WILL
HELP SPREAD MOISTURE INTO THE WESTCENTRAL AND NORTHWEST FOR
TOMMORROW. ALSO EXPECT SOME EAST WINDS IN THE CENTRAL VALLEYS
TONIGHT DUE TO MULTITUDE OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THE EAST TONIGHT. THIS
WILL IMPORT SUBSTANTIAL MOISTURE INTO THE CENTRAL VALLEYS. MOS
GUIDANCE COVERS THIS WITH 30-40 PCT POPS IN ABQ FRIDAY.

WILL ADD A MENTION OF TSTMS TO THE FCST FOR SUNDAY. BY MONDAY...
ENOUGH WESTERLY WINDS TO MIX MOISTURE OUT. THEN A BACKDOOR FRONT
DROPS IN FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. WITH THE WESTERLIES FCST TO BE
WELL OFF TO THE NORTH NEXT THURSDAY...WILL KEEP IN MENTION OF TSTMS.
