.DISCUSSION...
DRY AND WARMER TODAY EXCEPT IN THE BIG BEND WHERE AN UPPER LEVEL
LOW OVER NORTHERN MEXICO WILL CAUSE ISOLATED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. TOMORROW THE
UPPER LOW WILL MOVE NORTHEAST ACROSS WEST TEXAS SPREADING THE
CONVECTION INTO THE TRANS PECOS AND PERMIAN BASIN...UNFORTUNATELY
LIMITED MOISTURE MEANS RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE MODEST.
THURSDAY BEGINS A PERIOD OF ZONAL UPPER LEVEL FLOW AND ABOVE
NORMAL TEMPERATURES THAT WILL CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND. A DRY
AIRMASS AND 850MB TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 20S TO NEAR 30C WILL
ALLOW HIGHS TO MOVE INTO THE MID TO UPPER 90S AREAWIDE WITH TRIPLE
DIGITS IN THE TRANS PECOS AND RIO GRANDE VALLEYS. CANNOT RULE OUT
HIGHS EXCEEDING 100 IN THE PERMIAN BASIN THOUGH WILL NOT BE SO
AGGRESSIVE DUE TO ONLY MODEST WESTERLY DOWNSLOPING FLOW.
