THERE IS STILL VERY LITTLE TO DISCUSS IN REGARDS TO THE FORECAST FOR
FOR FORESEEABLE FUTURE. AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL REMAIN PARKED NEAR
THE FOUR CORNERS FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. CONVECTION CURRENTLY ON THE
HIGHER TERRAIN OF EASTERN NEW MEXICO WILL LIKELY BRING SOME VERY
LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS TOWARDS THE REGION EARLY THURSDAY MORNING.
HOWEVER, CHANCES ARE VERY SMALL OF ANY MEASURABLE PRECIPITATION.
THURSDAY WILL SEE A NEAR REPEAT OF WEDNESDAY WITH ABOVE SEASONAL
AVERAGE TEMPERATURES. A SURFACE TROUGH DRAPED ACROSS EASTERN NEW
MEXICO WILL GENERATE ADDITIONAL CONVECTION THAT WILL NOT LIKELY MAKE
IT INTO THE SOUTH PLAINS OF WEST TEXAS.
LONG TERM
(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 1048 PM CDT WED AUG 5 2026
FRIDAY EVENING WILL SEE A SLIGHT CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION WITH STORMS
POSSIBLY SNEAKING INTO THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST. THE UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE WILL MOVE SLIGHTLY WESTWARD WHICH MAY ALLOW FOR THE SURFACE
TROUGH TO BE POSITIONED FARTHER EAST. OTHERWISE, LITTLE TO NO
PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED THROUGH AT LEAST EARLY NEXT WEEK. VERY
LITTLE VARIATION IN TEMPERATURES CAN BE EXPECTED WITH FORECAST
MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES WITHIN FIVE DEGREES OR SO OF SEASONAL
AVERAGES.
