NWS Forecaster Discussion
310 fxus64 kmaf 042259 afdmaf Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Midland/Odessa Texas 559 PM CDT Friday Jul 4 2008 Aviation... predominately VFR conditions to prevail through Saturday morning. Isolated convection is currently developing across the Permian Basin and southeast New Mexico plains...which may result in a brief period of MVFR ceilings and a tempo thunderstorm/cumulonimbus until 03z at some taf sites. && Previous discussion... /issued 232 PM CDT Friday Jul 4 2008/ Discussion... despite copious amounts of moisture...a weak middle level circulation in and near the Davis Mountains and another over the northern County Warning Area...convection is not as widespread this afternoon as yesterday. Think we will see this trend continue Saturday and Sunday as the upper ridge to the west expands slowly over the region and lower Theta-E air spreads over the area from central Texas. Will still carry slight chance of showers and thunderstorms most locations tonight...mainly this evening...but have kept trending probability of precipitation down both Saturday and Sunday. The warm up and dry up looks to be short lived though as the bulk of model data is indicating an inverted upper trough translating northwestward along the Rio Grande and impinging upon the area as early as Monday. The GFS is an outlier with this solution. Have sided with the bulk of model data that indicates rain chances will increase Monday...then last through much of next week. Cooler than normal temperatures will also prevail areawide. Have not gone hog wild with precipitation chances just yet as another upper ridge is prognosticated to take shape over the southern Continental U.S. With US on the western fringe of it. Both probability of precipitation and temperatures in the upcoming forecast will be higher and lower respectively than GFS/mex data though. If perchance the upper ridge ends up stronger a la GFS...then temperatures will have to be raised and probability of precipitation lowered. The GFS has not performed well lately with all the mesoscale phenomena dictating the weather. However...an upper ridge is synoptic scale so there is the possibility it could be right. && Maf watches/warnings/advisories... nm...none. Texas...none. && $$ 99
