DISCUSSION
SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL CONTINUE FORMING OVER THE MOUNTAINS THIS
AFTERNOON, WITH A FEW SHOWERS ALREADY PASSING JUST SOUTH OF THE FIRE
AREA. STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA THROUGH
AROUND 9PM TONIGHT. HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ALL STORMS,
AND COULD LEAD TO FLASH FLOODING, ESPECIALLY WITH ANY SLOWER-MOVING
ONES. STORMS WILL ALSO BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING FREQUENT LIGHTNING,
OUTFLOW WINDS TO 45 MPH, AND POSSIBLY SOME SMALL HAIL. STRONGER
STORMS ARE EXPECTED FURTHER EAST OVER THE PLAINS, AND WHILE NO
IMPACTS FROM OUTFLOW ARE EXPECTED AS OF NOW, WILL CLOSELY MONITOR
WINDS THIS EVENING. OUTSIDE OF ANY INFLUENCE FROM STORMS, WINDS
TONIGHT AND INTO TOMORROW WILL BE LIGHT.
SIMILAR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ON THURSDAY. STORMS WILL FORM OVER
THE MOUNTAINS DURING MID-AFTERNOON, LIKELY AFTER 1-2PM, BEFORE
MOVING SOUTHEAST. BRIEF PERIODS OF HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLASH FLOODING
WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE, THOUGH THE CHANCE FOR STRONGER TO SEVERE
STORMS IS LOWER THAN IT IS TODAY. OUTFLOW WINDS 35-40 MPH AND
LIGHTNING WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE ALONGSIDE HEAVY RAIN.
LOOKING AT FRIDAY-SATURDAY, SLIGHTLY WARMER AND DRIER CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA, WITH ONLY A 20-30% CHANCE FOR SCATTERED
AFTERNOON STORMS OVER THE MOUNTAINS. LATE THIS WEEKEND, THE MONSOON
PLUME WILL MOVE BACK OVERHEAD, GIVING US A NOTABLE UPTICK IN
PRECIPITATION CHANCES INTO NEXT WEEK ALONG WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER
TEMPERATURES.
