DISCUSSION
CURRENT RADAR IS SHOWING ISOLATED SHOWERS AND STORMS DEVELOPING
IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS SOUTH OF I-10 THIS AFTERNOON. HI-RES
MODELS INDICATE THIS ACTIVITY WILL SPREAD EAST INTO THE PERMIAN
BASIN SO EVERYONE WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO SEE SOME RAIN TODAY,
THOUGH CHANCES WILL BE LOW. WE ARE NOT CURRENTLY OUTLOOKED IN
SPC'S LATEST SWODY1 BUT CAN'T RULE OUT AN ISOLATED STORM BECOMING
STRONG TO MARGINALLY SEVERE.
UNFORTUNATELY, TODAY WILL BE THE COOLEST DAY OF THE FORECAST
PERIOD AS HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST EXPANDS EASTWARD
INTO THE SOUTH PLAINS BY EARLY NEXT WEEK. INCREASING SUBSIDENCE
WILL CAUSE TEMPERATURES TO RISE A FEW DEGREES WITH MOST LOCATIONS
REACHING THE UPPER 90S TO LOW 100S FOR HIGHS; HOWEVER, A SOUTHERLY
TO SOUTHEASTERLY LOW LEVEL FLOW SHOULD PREVENT TEMPS FROM REACHING
HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA. IN ADDITION, THE INCREASING SUBSIDENCE
SHOULD ALSO SEVERELY LIMIT ANY RAIN CHANCES AFTER THE WEEKEND.
