NWS Forecaster Discussion
328 fxus65 ktwc 232107 afdtwc Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Tucson Arizona 205 PM MST Wednesday Jul 23 2008 Synopsis...a weak trough of low pressure moving across northern Mexico will bring a chance of showers and thunderstorms to the area tonight. Decreased thunderstorm activity is on tap Thursday and Friday as drier air aloft moves across the area. For this weekend... the remnant moisture from tropical system Dolly is expected to bring an increased chance of thunderstorms to Southeast Arizona. && Discussion...kemx WSR-88D detected isolated-scattered mostly less than 40 dbz echoes across far northern Greenlee County at 2100z. The rest of Southeast Arizona was void of precipitation echoes. Cyclonic circulation feature to move westward across northern old Mexico tonight. Airmass across Southeast Arizona especially vicinity Tucson metropolitan area worked-over from mesoscale convective system earlier this morning. However enough moisture and synoptic-scale ascent to justify the mention of scattered showers/thunderstorms areawide this evening. For now will also maintain a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms areawide after midnight...and will defer to the evening shift to modify this scenario accordingly. No changes of significance were made to previously issued forecasts that depict decreased convective activity thur-Fri. Thereafter... upswing in showers and thunderstorms expected this weekend as upper level remnants of tropical system Dolly depicted via various nwp models to spread nwwd toward this forecast area. For further detail please reference WMO header fxus02 kwbc/AWIPS header pmdepd/. There will be an increased potential for locally heavy downpours associated with the deeper remnant tropical moisture. Opted for a blend of gfsx MOS guidance values and climatology probability of precipitation during the Monday-Wednesday period. Warmer Thursday with daytime temperatures Thursday-Friday trending close to normal for late July. Below normal daytime temperatures Sat into early next week. && Aviation...expect scattered thunderstorms and rain/rain showers across Southeast Arizona into tonight. Cloud decks generally 5-7k feet above ground level though ceilings as low as 1-3k feet above ground level vicinity +tsra. Higher terrain occasionally obscured into tonight. Generally light surface winds though gusts near 35 kts vicinity strongest thunderstorms. Activity to decrease after 24/07z into Thursday morning. Aviation discussion not updated for taf amendments. && Twc watches/warnings/advisories...none. $$ Weather.Gov/Tucson
