Area forecast discussion, Jun 24, 1:33 PM MST, 27 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBUQUERQUE NM 233 PM MDT TUE JUN 24 2014 .SYNOPSIS... ANOTHER ACTIVE DAY OF WEATHER WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FIRING OVER THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS AND MOVING ONTO THE EASTERN HIGHLANDS. AS STORMS MOVE INTO A MORE MOIST AND UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT THEY WILL STRENGTHEN AND COULD TURN SEVERE IN THE NORTHEAST. A STORM MOVING ONTO THE CA COAST WILL PASS BY TO OUR NORTH LATE IN THE WEEK. INCREASING WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL SCOUR OUT SOME OF THE REMNANT MOISTURE FROM THE RECENT CONVECTION. THIS WILL LEAD TO A GRADUAL DRYING TREND THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THEN HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO NM FROM THE SOUTHWEST THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. A BACKDOOR COLD FRONT COULD BRING AN UPTICK IN MOISTURE ACROSS THE EAST ON TUESDAY. && .DISCUSSION... STORMS FIRING AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON BUT FOR THE MOST PART HAVE BEEN FAIRLY TAME. AS THEY CONTINUE EAST THEY WILL MOVE INTO A BETTER ENVIRONMENT OF MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY...ESPECIALLY IN THE NW. WILL CARRY MENTION OF SEVERE STORMS IN COLFAX...UNION...MORA...SAN MIGUEL AND HARDING COUNTIES THROUGH THIS EVENING. MEANWHILE THE WEST WILL REMAIN DRY. CUMULUS NOT BUILDING AS WELL OVER THE GILA REGION THIS AFTERNOON AS IT DID YESTERDAY. MOSTLY ISOLATED POPS ACROSS FOR THE EAST WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. OVERALL COVERAGE AND INTENSITY SHOULD BE LESS THAN RECENT DAYS. THE WEST WILL REMAIN DRY AS WILL MUCH OF THE CENTRAL AREAS. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN SEASONABLY VERY WARM...CLOSE TO OR A LITTLE ABOVE NORMAL. WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT AHEAD OF A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL INCREASE THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AND HELP TO REMOVE SOME OF THE MOISTURE IN THE AIR. THIS WILL MEAN LESS CONVECTION ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA... CONFINED TO THE FAR NORTHEAST AND NEAR THE TX BORDER. TEMPERATURES WILL CLIMB A FEW MORE DEGREES THURSDAY ALL AREAS...THEN DROP SOME IN THE WEST ON FRIDAY AS WE BEGIN TO FEEL THE IMPACTS OF THE SHORT WAVE TROUGH. HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL GRADUALLY BUILD THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH MOSTLY DRY AND VERY WARM CONDITIONS. A SHORT WAVE TROUGH PASSING WELL TO OUR NORTH MONDAY WILL DROP A COLD FRONT INTO EASTERN NM NEXT TUESDAY OR TUESDAY NIGHT...BRINGING A FRESH BATCH OF MOISTURE TO AT LEAST THE EAST. THIS WILL PROVIDE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR MORE CONVECTION. CHJ && .FIRE WEATHER... DRY CONDITIONS PREVAIL WEST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS TODAY. NO STORM ACTIVITY EXPECTED ACROSS THIS AREA THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. HOWEVER...A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR WETTING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXISTS TODAY AND TOMORROW EAST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS AND ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS. EXPECT STORMS TO INITIATE ON THE EAST SLOPES OF THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL MOUNTAINS THEN TRACK EAST ON TO THE EASTERN PLAINS AND HIGHLANDS. ONLY ISOLATED AFTERNOON STORM COVERAGE EXPECTED TODAY AND TOMORROW IN THESE AREAS. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY WEST TO SOUTHWEST WINDS ALOFT INCREASE AS A UPPER LEVEL TROUGH PASSES THROUGH THE AREA. THE INCREASE IN WINDS...WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES...AND MIN RH VALUES DECREASING TO SINGLE DIGITS AND TEENS AREAWIDE WILL CAUSE CRITICAL FIRE CONDITIONS TO TREND UPWARD THURSDAY...FRIDAY...AND SATURDAY. THE PEAK DAY FOR CRITICAL FIRE CONDITIONS APPEARS TO BE FRIDAY WITH SUPER HAINES AND RED FLAG CRITERIA DEVELOPING FOR SEVERAL HOURS ACROSS CENTRAL...SOUTH CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST AREAS OF NEW MEXICO. VENT RATES GOOD TO EXCELLENT TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA. OVERNIGHT RH RECOVERY VALUES ARE TRENDING DOWNWARD ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. OVERNIGHT RH RECOVERIES ARE GOOD IN THE EASTERN PLAINS BUT TREND TO POOR TO FAIR MID-TO-LATE WEEK. OVERNIGHT RH RECOVERIES REMAIN POOR WEST OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. NEXT WEEK FROM TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...EXTENDED RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO TREND TOWARDS THE BUILDING OF A UPPER LEVEL SUBTROPICAL HIGH OVER THE FOUR CORNERS REGION. THIS PATTERN WOULD ALLOW FOR INCREASED MOISTURE INFLUX INTO THE REGION...ALLOWING FOR A MORE WIDESPREAD INCREASING IN WETTING RAINS. 01 && .AVIATION... 18Z TAF CYCLE POSSIBLE STORM ACTIVITY THIS AFTN/EVE EAST OF THE SANGRE DE CRISTO MTNS TO THE EASTERN PLAINS...WITH STRONG TO SEVERE POTENTIAL FOR THE EXTREME NORTHEAST PLAINS. VCSH FOR KLVS AND KTCC BECAUSE OF POTENTIAL FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. LOW CIGS EXPECTED FOR KLVS...KTCC AND KROW INTO TONIGHT.
