NWS Midland/Odessa, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Sep 14, 1:53 PM CST, 3 hours 37 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIDLAND/ODESSA TX 253 PM CDT WED SEP 14 2005 .SHORT TERM... 14/18Z SURFACE OBS INDICATE A WEAK DRYLINE FROM THE NORTHERN DAVIS MOUNTAINS INTO THE NORTHERN PERMIAN BASIN. DEWPOINTS WEST OF THE DRYLINE ARE GENERALLY IN THE 40S F WHILE READINGS EAST OF THE DRYLINE IN THE FAR EASTERN CWA ARE IN THE UPPER 60S F. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ALREADY INITIATED OVER THE DAVIS MOUNTAINS... WITH THE CU FIELD SHOWING SIGNS OF ORGANIZING ALONG THE DRYLINE. SEVERE STORMS WILL BE THE MAIN CONCERN FOR TONIGHT WITH THE FOCUS OVER THE WESTERN LOW ROLLING PLAINS WHERE ROUGHLY THE NORTHERN HALF OF SCURRY COUNTY IS OUTLOOKED FOR A MODERATE RISK. A SLIGHT RISK EXISTS ACROSS THE NORTHERN PERMIAN BASIN AND THE REMAINDER OF THE WESTERN LOW ROLLING PLAINS. STORM DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE DRYLINE IS EXPECTED WITH THE COMBINATION OF AFTERNOON HEATING...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE...STEEPENING LAPSE RATES AND THE APPROACH OF A MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH. A FEW SUPERCELLS WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THIS ENVIRONMENT...PARTICULARLY OVER THE WESTERN LOW ROLLING PLAINS WHERE THE BEST LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE AND BACKING SURFACE WINDS WILL RESIDE. SUPERCELLS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE OVER THE LOWER TRANS PECOS WHERE A WEAK SURFACE LOW NEAR KINK WILL TEND TO KEEP MOISTURE/SOUTHEASTERLY LOW-LEVEL WINDS IN PLACE. WE WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE UPCOMING FORECAST PER SPC AREAL OUTLINES OVER THE NORTHERN PERMIAN BASIN AND WESTERN LOW ROLLING PLAINS. WE WILL ALSO MENTION STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE STORMS OVER MUCH OF THE REMAINDER OF SOUTHWEST TEXAS AND THE PLAINS OF FAR SOUTHEASTERN NEW MEXICO IN THE HWO. .LONG TERM... THE SURFACE FRONT WILL HANG OUT IN OUR CWA FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS...ORIENTED ROUGHLY ALONG A NE TO SW DIAGONAL LINE ACROSS THE PERMIAN BASIN BACK INTO THE DAVIS MOUNTAINS. FOR THURSDAY...THIS WILL GIVE US ANOTHER CHANCE AT SOME WIDELY SCATTERED PRECIP...ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTHERN AND NORTHEASTERN COUNTIES. SURFACE CONVERGENCE ALONG THIS FRONT WILL ALSO AID SOME SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENTS IN THE AFOREMENTIONED LOCALES. MARGINAL INSTABILITY WILL CONTINUE TO BE PRESENT IN THE AREA SO ANY THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENTS COULD LEAN ON THE STRONG TO SEVERE SIDE. WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND POSSIBILITY IN HWO. WITH PWS STILL IN THE 1.50 INCH ARENA...CANT RULE OUT THE POSSIBILITY OF FLASH FLOODING WITH LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS ESPECIALLY IN LOW LYING AREAS. AFTER THURSDAY...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN BUILDING BACK INTO THE REGION AGAIN THROUGH THE WEEKEND WITH THE CENTER LOCATED ROUGHLY OVER THE BIG BEND REGION. THIS WILL ALLOW SEVERAL WEAK DISTURBANCES TO ROTATE THROUGH THE CWA FROM OLD MEXICO AND SETTING UP THE FAMILIAR PATTERN OF ISOLATED SHOWERS IN THE MOUNTAIN AREAS WITH UPPER LEVEL WESTERLY FLOW. THIS UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN AND BY EARLY TO MID WORK WEEK THE CENTER WILL BE LOCATED ROUGHLY OVER THE ARKLATX REGION. THIS WILL AID IN PULLING IN MOISTURE FROM THE GULF AND CONTINUING THE POSSIBILITY OF SHOWERS IN THE DAVIS MOUNTAINS WITH A MORE SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW FORCING THE MOISTURE UPSLOPE. THIS STRENGTHENING RIDGE...HOWEVER...COULD KEEP THE NORTHERN PARTS OF THE CWA A LITTLE DRIER DEPENDING ON HOW ROBUST IT BECOMES. IF IT DEVELOPS AS THE GFS/NAM ARE ADVERTISING...IT WILL KEEP THE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES ROTATING WELL TO THE NORTH OF THE AREA. BUT....THIS MORNINGS RUN OF THE DGEX SHOWS A FLATTER UPPER RIDGE PATTERN WHICH WOULD ALLOW THESE DISTURBANCES TO MIGRATE AROUND A LITTLE FURTHER SOUTH...THEREFORE WARRANTING HIGHER POPS IN THE NORTHERN FRINGES OF THE CWA. AFTERNOON HIGHS WILL CONTINUE TO BE WARM WITH MANY LOCATIONS IN THE LOWE 90S. MODEL GUIDANCE SEEMS A LITTLE WARM WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS...SO WILL LIKELY LOWER THOSE SLIGHTLY FROM WHAT GUIDANCE SHOWS. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
