.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 606 PM CDT SAT JUN 2 2012/

AVIATION...

MAIN AVIATION CONCERN THIS EVENING WILL BE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS.
THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE OFF THE MOUNTAINS OF NEW MEXICO AND A FEW
WILL DEVELOP ALONG BOUNDARIES IN THE WESTERN TEXAS PANHANDLE. HAVE
INCLUDED SOME VCTS WORDING FOR ALL TAF SITES THIS EVENING. EXPECT
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO WANE AS SUN SETS. THEREFORE...AFTER 06Z-08Z
SOUTHERLY WINDS OF 10 TO 15 KTS WITH VFR CIGS AND VISIBILITIES
FORECAST UNTIL THE NEXT ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPS ON SUNDAY.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 546 PM CDT SAT JUN 2 2012/

DISCUSSION...
NEXT CROP OF SHOWERS AND TSTMS CURRENTLY FORMING OVER HIGHER TERRAIN
OF ERN NM AND SERN CO AND ALONG CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES IN TX
PNHDL AND TX SOUTH PLAINS FROM PREVIOUS DAYS STORMS. SUFFICIENT
DAYTIME HEATING AND ATMOPHSERIC INSTABILITY ALONG WITH PRESENCE OF
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND SOME MINOR WIND SHEAR AND APPROACHING MINOR
UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROF ALSO AIDED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THESE
STORMS. EXPECT THESE STORMS TO CONTINUE THRU EVENING HOURS BEFORE
COVERAGE DECREASES. HIGHEST POPS ACROSS NRN ZONES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
OF 50 PERCENT...WITH 40 PERCENT VALUES ACROSS THE SRN ZONES. SOME
STORMS COULD BE SEVERE...WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS PRIMARY
HAZARDS.

LATEST SHORT RANGE MODELS ARE IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT FOR THE FIRST
FEW PERIODS. HOWEVER...THEY DIFFER ON WHERE...WHEN...OR IF ANY TSTMS
WILL DEVELOP. GIVEN SUFFICIENT MOISTURE...HEATING...AND INSTABILITY...
DO THINK THERE WILL BE A THREAT FOR TSTMS LATER SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE...MORE ISOLD ACROSS FAR WRN COUNTIES
WHERE MOISTURE MAY MIX OUT COMPARED TO ERN ZONES.

WEAK COLD FRONT WILL PUSH SWD THRU FCST AREA LATER SUNDAY AFTERNOON
AND NIGHT. UPSLOPE LOW LEVEL FLOW PROGGED FOR EARLY PART OF NEXT
WEEK. MOISTURE IS FORECAST TO REMAIN TRAPPED BENEATH UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE WITH MINOR...HARD TO TIME SHORTWAVE TROFS WANDERING AROUND THE
REGION. ALSO...DIFFICULT TO PINPOINT CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES OR
RESIDUAL WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARIES WILL LIKELY SERVE AS FOCI FOR SFC
BASED TSTM DEVELOPMENT THROUGHTOUT THE COMING WEEK. ALL THE ABOVE IS
FAIRLY TYPICAL OF EARLY TO MID JUNE AND SUPPORTS MENTION OF AT LEAST
ISOLD TSTMS NEARLY EACH AFTERNOON AND NIGHT FOR MUCH OF NEXT WEEK.
DECIDED TO INCLUDE SLGT CHC POPS ALL ZONES MONDAY THRU THURSDAY
NIGHT. TRYING TO TARGET WHICH PARTS OF PNHDLS WILL HAVE A THREAT THIS
FAR OUT IS AN EXERCISE IN PLAYING RUSSIAN ROULETTE AND WAS NOT
COMFORTABLE DOING THAT. THEREFORE...USED A SHOTGUN APPROACH TO POPS
FROM MON THRU THURSDAY NIGHT...WHICH CAN BE REFINED AS TIME GETS
CLOSER. LATER SHIFTS MAY NEED TO CONSIDER EXTENDING LOW POPS INTO
FRIDAY IF NECESSARY IF MEDIUM RANGE MODELS VERIFY.

ANDRADE

FIRE WEATHER...
NEITHER ELEVATED NOR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE ANTICIPATED
THROUGH AT LEAST THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK DUE TO RECENT RAINS ALONG
WITH CONTINUED CHANCES FOR MORE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE
NEXT FEW DAYS.
