NWS Forecaster Discussion
Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Midland/Odessa Texas 723 PM CDT Tuesday may 22 2012 Update... update to adjust probability of precipitation. && Discussion... thunderstorms continued to develop near the Glass Mountains... southwestward to near Persimmon Gap in an area of upslope flow and modest instability. The better moisture lie further east...and will likely return westward too late for scattered to numerous storms to occur...especially since there does not appear to be any middle level support to erode a strengthening cap. A storm or two more will be strong...if not severe...due to around 30kt of 0 to 6km bulk shear...but the overall trend will be for weaker storms as the sun sets and instability wanes. Will send an update to adjust probability of precipitation... which will be relegated mainly to Brewster County for the next 2 to 3 hours. Southerly winds will persist overnight and keep minimum temperatures on the mild side...except along the Pecos River in New Mexico where lighter winds in the drier air will allow temperatures to drop beneath mostly clear skies. The update will follow shortly. && Preliminary point temps/pops...
