EARLY MORNING WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOW LEAD SHORTWAVE TROUGH NOW
MOVING ACROSS THE WRN DAKOTAS...WITH PACIFIC STORM SYSTEM ENTERING
THE NORTHWEST. SPEED MAX ASSOCIATED WITH PACIFIC IMPULSE WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE NRN ROCKIES BY TONIGHT. AT THE SFC...LEE TROUGH WILL
PERSIST ACROSS THE SRN HIGH PLAINS...WITH A COLD FRONT EXTENDING

FALLING INTO THE MID 50S. MINIMUM RH VALUES WILL FALL INTO THE 25-35
PERCENT RANGE. SFC WINDS WILL NOT BE STRONG...BUT ABNORMALLY DRY
CONDITIONS PERSIST WITH HIGH KBDI VALUES.
...SERN AZ/NM/FAR W TX/EXTREME SERN CO...
SUFFICIENT MID LEVEL MOISTURE IS IN PLACE ACROSS SRN AZ/NM AND THIS
WILL CONTRIBUTE TO ISOLD DRY TSTMS AGAIN TODAY. FORECAST SOUNDINGS
SUGGEST THE MOST LIKELY CORRIDOR FOR TSTMS EXTENDS FROM NEAR TUS
NEWD TO ABQ AND PORTIONS OF SE CO. TEMPERATURE/DEWPOINT SPREADS WILL
BE IN EXCESS OF 60 DEGREES...SO ANY CONVECTIVE CELLS WILL POSE A
THREAT FOR GUSTY DOWNDRAFT WINDS AS WELL AS DRY LIGHTNING STRIKES.
...NRN GREAT BASIN...
AS UPPER WAVE MOVES EWD TODAY...WINDS ALOFT AND AT THE SFC WILL
STRENGTHEN WITH GUSTY AFTN WINDS LIKELY. JET MAX WILL BE NORTH OF
AREA...BUT EVEN SO MID LEVEL WINDS ACROSS THE NRN GREAT BASIN WILL
INCREASE TO 40-45 KT. SUSTAINED SFC WINDS AROUND 15-20 MPH CAN BE
EXPECTED WITH MAX TEMPS RANGING FROM THE UPPER 70S TO THE LOWER 90S.
