Hail in New Mexico, August 27, 2009

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM
300 PM MDT THU AUG 27 2009

.DISCUSSION...
CONVECTION PRIMARILY FIRING OVER THE CNTRL MOUNTAIN CHAIN AND THEIR
EAST SLOPES THIS PM. GENERAL N TO S DRIFT OF THE STORMS WILL MAKE
CNTRL NM THE FAVORED AREA FOR CONVECTION INTO TONIGHT. STORMS OFF
THE JEMEZ MTNS MAY BE ABLE TO REACH THE ALBUQUERQUE AREA THIS EVE.
ANOTHER E CANYON WIND INTO THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY IS LIKELY TONIGHT
BUT PROBABLY TO A LESSER EXTENT THAN LAST NIGHT. THE FAR W WILL BE
DRY TONIGHT WITH ONLY ISOLATED ACTIVITY THIS EVENING OVER THE ERN
PLAINS.

CENTER OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN TO OUR NW FRI. A LITTLE LESS
COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS EXPECTED ON FRIDAY WITH A LACK OF
A FRESH SUPPLY OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE. GOOD SUBSIDENCE IN THE NW
WILL KEEP IT MOSTLY DRY...WHILE STEERING FLOW WILL PREVENT STORMS
FROM MOVING ONTO THE EASTERN PLAINS. CNTRL TO SW AREAS WILL BE
FAVORED FOR CONVECTION ON FRI.

ANOTHER BACK DOOR FRONT WILL SLIDE S ACROSS THE ERN PLAINS THIS
WEEKEND AND PERHAPS INTO THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY. THIS COULD INCREASE
COVERAGE AGAIN OF SHOWERS AND STORMS...ESPECIALLY ON SUN. SPRAWLING
HIGH PRESSURE AREA IS THEN FORECAST TO MOVE OVER NM EARLY NEXT WITH
THE DAILY RECYCLING OF MOISTURE PROVIDING LIMITED ACTIVITY. MODELS
HINT AT THE HIGH DRIFTING E LATER NEXT WEEK...ALLOWING FOR A TROPICAL
TAP OF MOISTURE OVER THE W...THEN A BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW MAY DEVELOP
OVER THE SW AS A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES INTO THE W COAST. CHJ

&&

.AVIATION...
BEEFED UP THUNDERSTORM MENTION IN THE TERMINAL FORECASTS FOR ABQ AND
LVS IN THE NEAR TERM DUE TO STEERING FLOW CONSIDERATIONS. THINKING
THAT SHOWER AND STORMS WILL AFFECT ROW AND TCC A LITTLE LATER TODAY.
STORMS HAVE BEEN SLOW TO GET GOING ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS...
PROBABLY DUE TO STABILITY CONCERNS. GUP AND FMN WILL REMAIN WITH VFR
CONDITIONS THROUGH THE REST OF TODAY. SOME STORMS WILL CONTAIN SHORT
DURATION MVFR CONDITIONS...ESPECIALLY BRIEFLY AFFECTING TERMINAL
SITES SUCH AS LVS...TCC AND ROW. OTHERWISE...CREATING SOME MTN TOP
OBSCURATIONS.

NEXT AVIATION DISCUSSION SCHEDULED FOR 09Z.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...WETTING STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO FAVOR THE CENTRAL
MTS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. SOME
WETTING RAIN WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS AS THAT
AREA HAS BEEN SLOW TO GET GOING DUE TO LOW LEVEL STABILITY
INHIBITION. AREAS OF THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY SHOULD ALSO OBSERVE
WETTING RAIN ALTHOUGH THE FOOTPRINT WILL BE ON THE SMALLER SIDE.
HUMIDITY RECOVERIES WILL TEND TO BE GOOD TO EXCELLENT ACROSS A LARGE
PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA...WITH THE EXCEPTION BEING ACROSS THE
FAR
NORTHWEST...ESPECIALLY HIGHER TERRAIN WHERE RECOVERIES ARE EXPECTED
TO BE LESS THAN 60 PCT. SOME SHORT DURATION GUSTY GAP WINDS ARE ALSO
EXPECTED ALONG THE CENTRAL MTN CHAIN TONIGHT.

WETTING RAIN POTENTIAL VIA THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO FAVOR THE
CENTRAL MOUNTAINS FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. ALTHOUGH THERE WILL
BE A SLIGHT SHIFT TO THE WEST AS FAR AS THE MAIN FOCUS FOR
THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE. THIS INCLUDES MORE AFFECTS TO THE RIO GRANDE
VALLEY AND AS FAR WEST AS THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE. WETTING STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO BE RATHER HIT AND MISS HOWEVER. AS THE UPPER RIDGE
CONSOLIDATES ITSELF TO THE WEST OF THE FOUR CORNERS...THE STEERING
FLOW SHOULD BECOME MORE NORTHEAST TO SOUTHWEST ON FRIDAY. THIS MEANS
THAT THE EASTERN PLAINS SHOULD REMAIN THUNDERSTORM FREE. MINIMUM
HUMIDITY IS EXPECTED TO TREND DOWN BETWEEN 8 TO 20 PCT ACROSS
CENTRAL AND EASTERN AREAS ON FRIDAY WITH A RISE OF 3 TO 7 PCT ACROSS
THE WESTERN THIRD.

FOR SATURDAY...BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS MODELS DEPICT THE CENTER OF
THE UPPER HIGH OVER THE PHX AND FLAGSTAFF AREA. STEERING FLOWS WITH
THIS UPPER HIGH CONFIGURATION ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME MORE NORTH TO
SOUTH OR NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST THUS THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE SHOULD BE
SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT THAN ON FRIDAY. REGARDLESS...RECYCLING OF
MOISTURE IN THE FORM OF ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE
HIGHER TERRAIN WILL OCCUR. THIS MEANS THAT STORMS WILL TEND TO BE
DRIER ACROSS THE LOWER ELEVATIONS AND WETTER OVER THE HIGHER
TERRAIN. MINIMUM HUMIDITY VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO TREND SLIGHTLY UP
OVERALL...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS...DUE TO A
REINFORCING MOISTURE SURGE FROM THE HIGH PLAINS DURING THE DAY.

THE UPPER HIGH IS EXPECTED TO MEANDER A LITTLE BIT MORE TO THE
SOUTHEAST PLACING THE UPPER HIGH POSITION SOMEWHERE OVER SOUTH
CENTRAL ARIZONA. DURING THIS REPOSITIONING...THE STEERING FLOW
BECOMES A BIT MORE WESTERLY FOR THE STORMS AS RECYCLING OF MOISTURE
CONTINUES. THIS MEANS THAT THE EASTERN PLAINS WILL HAVE A BETTER
CHANCE AT SEEING WETTING STORMS DUE TO STORMS INITIATING OVER THE
HIGHER TERRAIN AND MOVING OUT OVER THE HIGH PLAINS. A RESIDUAL BACK
DOOR FRONTAL SURGE WILL ALSO HELP AS WELL.

THE LATEST MODELS FOR THE EXTENDED PERIOD PROJECT THE UPPER HIGH
SOMEWHERE OVER NEW MEXICO DURING THE MONDAY...TUESDAY PERIOD
ALTHOUGH THERE IS SOME SLIGHT DISAGREEMENT AS TO HOW FAR EAST THE
UPPER HIGH WILL GET. REGARDLESS...TEMPERATURES SHOULD WARM SLIGHTLY
DURING THIS PERIOD AND MOISTURE WOULD BEGIN TO RECYCLE OUT EVEN
FURTHER. THIS MEANS THAT HUMIDITY VALUES OVERALL...WOULD TREND
SLIGHTLY DOWN WHILE THE FOOTPRINT OF WETTING RAIN ALSO TRENDS
SMALLER.

WIND DURING THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS DOESNT LOOK TO BE ALL THAT STRONG
EXCEPT FOR NEAR CANYON OPENINGS FOUND WITHIN THE CENTRAL MTS. THIS
WOULD BE DUE TO THUNDERSTORM AND BACK DOOR ENHANCED GAP WIND
EFFECTS. OUTFLOWS ORIGINATING FROM SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WOULD
CREATE THE STRONGEST WINDS ALTHOUGH THEY WOULD BE SHORT IN
DURATION.
