NWS Lubbock, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 23, 5:36 PM CST, 2 hours 52 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LUBBOCK TX 636 PM CDT WED JUN 23 2010 .UPDATE... HAVE SCALED POPS BACK SIGNIFICANTLY GIVEN THE FATE OF THE STORMS FROM CASTRO TO BRISCOE COUNTY EARLIER. AS THE SUBSIDENCE ALOFT WAS NOT ABLE TO BE OVERCOME WITH DIURNAL HEATING...SUSPECT IT WILL HAVE A HARD TIME DOING SO OVERNIGHT. TO FURTHER THAT HYPOTHESIS...WV IMAGERY CONTINUES TO INDICATE INCREASED SUBSIDENCE PUSHING IN FROM THE EAST. RADAR TRENDS HAVE BEEN SHOWING SOME EROSION OF THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF ACTIVITY ALONG THE US 285 CORRIDOR IN NM. SOME OF THE GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT MCS COULD FORM OUT OF NM STORM ACTIVITY BUT THIS WOULD MOST LIKELY ONLY CLIP OUR NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES IF AT ALL AND THUS LEFT ONLY SLIGHT CHC POPS UP THAT WAY. && .AVIATION... VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH THE PERIOD. WINDS COULD BE A LITTLE TRICKY THIS EVENING WITH THE PROXIMITY OF THE FRONT TO BOTH TERMINALS. HOWEVER...WIND SPEEDS SHOULD REMAIN FAIRLY LIGHT AFTER SUNSET MINIMIZING IMPACTS SOMEWHAT. THERE LOOKS TO BE A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS AROUND THE AREA ONCE AGAIN THURSDAY AFTERNOON...BUT WILL HOLD OFF ON INTRODUCTION OF CB UNTIL CONFIDENCE GROWS IN FRONTAL POSITION DURING PEAK HEATING ON THU. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 353 PM CDT WED JUN 23 2010/ SHORT TERM... A CURRENT SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT A COLD FRONT IS DRAPED ACROSS THE SOUTH PLAINS REGION THIS AFTERNOON...STRETCHING ALONG A LINE FROM NEAR CHILDRESS TO PLAINVIEW TO PLAINS. THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED TO STALL OUT ACROSS THE AREA LATE THIS AFTERNOON...AND BE THE PRIMARY FOCUS FOR CONVECTION THIS EVENING AND INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. AS WAS MENTIONED IN THE MORNING UPDATE...SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY EXISTS FOR PULSE-TYPE THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER...WITH FAIRLY WEAK 0-6 KM WIND SHEAR VALUES...ANY STORMS THAT DO FORM WILL HAVE A TOUGH TIME STAYING ORGANIZED. MODEL SOUNDINGS CONTINUE TO EXHIBIT AN INVERTED-V SHAPE...SUGGESTING THAT DAMAGING WIND GUSTS MAY BE THE PRIMARY CONCERN WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS...WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND LOW-END SEVERE HAIL BEING THE OTHER THREATS. THE 18Z RUN OF THE NAM-12 CONTINUES TO SHOW SCATTERED CONVECTION DEVELOPING ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TEXAS PANHANDLE AND DRIFTING INTO THE SOUTH PLAINS/NORTHERN ROLLING PLAINS JUST AFTER 21Z. OTHER MODELS INDICATE DEVELOPMENT SLIGHTLY LATER AROUND 00Z...WITH SIMILAR COVERAGE. GIVEN THE RECENT TRACK RECORD OF THE NAM...HAVE MAINTAINED MENTIONABLE POPS ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST PANHANDLE AND WESTERN/NORTHERN SOUTH PLAINS THIS AFTERNOON AND ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA THIS EVENING. ALSO...GIVEN THAT THE PREVIOUS RUN OF THE 4-KM WRF INDICATED ANOTHER COMPLEX OF STORMS LINGERING ACROSS THE PANHANDLES AND WESTERN SOUTH PLAINS OVERNIGHT...HAVE KEPT AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF STORMS FOR A BULK OF THE AREA AFTER 06Z...TO ACCOUNT FOR ANY PERSISTENT STORMS. ON THURSDAY MORNING...THE AFOREMENTIONED FRONT WILL REMAIN STALLED OUT ACROSS THE AREA...WITH POTENTIALLY A FEW LINGERING SHOWERS AND STORMS NEARBY. THE FRONT WILL GRADUALLY LIFT BACK TOWARD THE NORTH BY MIDDAY...BUT THE THREAT FOR ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND STORMS TO DEVELOP DURING THE AFTERNOON WILL EXIST...BOTH NEAR THE FRONT AND ALONG ANY RESIDUAL OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM PREVIOUS CONVECTION. GIVEN THE PROGGED CLOUD COVER AND PRECIPITATION...TEMPERATURES TOMORROW SHOULD BE SLIGHTLY COOLER THAN THE PAST FEW DAYS WITH HIGHS PEAKING IN THE UPPER 80S TO MID 90S ACROSS THE AREA. LONG TERM... GRADUAL CHANGES IN THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE PATTERN DOMINATE THE LONGER RANGE FORECAST. ELONGATED WEST-EAST RIDGE EARLY WITH A WEAKNESS OVER OUR AREA WILL BE IMPOSED UPON BY A WESTERLY MOVING WAVE FROM SOUTH TEXAS. NET RESULT WILL BE SOME INCREASE IN MOISTURE FRIDAY THOUGH RIDGE PORTION TO OUR WEST MAY STAY SHARP ENOUGH TO AVOID FULL BLOWN INTRUSION OF THIS WAVE. LOW MENTION OF THUNDER WESTERN ZONES INTO EARLY PART OF WEEKEND SEEMS TO FIT THIS SCENARIO BEST THOUGH HARDLY CERTAIN...AND SHORT RANGE WRF/NAM RUN IN PARTICULAR INSISTS STILL ON BREAKING OUT A FEW SHOWERS OVER CENTRAL AND EASTERN ZONES FRIDAY. RIDGE TO OUR WEST APPEARS WILL AMPLIFY BY LATE IN THE WEEKEND AS A TROUGH IN THE EAST FLATTENS GOOD THE REMAINING EASTERN PORTION OF THE ABOVE-MENTIONED ELONGATED RIDGE. ANOTHER FRONTAL BOUNDARY FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS DIPPING OUT OF THE PANHANDLE EARLY SUNDAY SEEMS DESTINED TO MOVE INTO MUCH OF THE SOUTH PLAINS BY LATE SUNDAY. THIS WILL SUPPORT THE NEXT LOW MENTION OF AREA-WIDE THUNDER CHANCES. ULTIMATE COVERAGE OF COURSE WILL CONTINUE TO BE DOMINATED BY MESO-SCALE FORCING MECHANISMS THOUGH AND SOME ORGANIZATION MAY VERY WELL OCCUR AROUND THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. HOW THE NEWLY AMPLIFIED RIDGE FACTORS INTO MESO-SCALE FORCING HERE IN THE SOUTHERN PLAINS NEXT WEEK AS IT ARCS HIGH INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS IS UNCERTAIN. IT DOES SEEM THAT AT LEAST A SWATH OF MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE UP INTO THE AREA EARLY IN THE WEEK BEFORE PROBABLY BEING PINCHED OFF AGAIN. WE CHOSE TO KEEP LONGER RANGE OF FORECAST AFTER MONDAY NIGHT DRY FOR NOW. AND THE AND POTENTIAL COOLING EARLY IN THE WEEK DOES NOT LOOK VERY SIGNIFICANT...EXCEPT THAT IT MAY BE COMBINED WITH ENOUGH MOISTURE TO DROP TEMPERATURES A BIT BELOW NORMAL. ANYWAY...MINOR COOLING MONDAY AND TUESDAY WAS RETAINED FOLLOWED BY A GRADUAL WARMING INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. RMCQUEEN && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
