.DISCUSSION...
HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT STRETCHING ACROSS TEXAS AND NEW MEXICO WILL
CONTINUE TO BRING DRY AND VERY WARM CONDITIONS TODAY AND MONDAY.
HOWEVER...A SLIGHT INCREASE IN MOISTURE WILL ALLOW A SMALL CHANCE
OF THUNDERSTORMS IN FAR WESTERN NEW MEXICO MONDAY AND TUESDAY.
ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP TOMORROW WILL MOST LIKELY REMAIN
WEST OF YOUR LOCATION. AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH PASSING BY TO THE
NORTH MAY BRING ENOUGH MOISTURE AND COOL AIR ALOFT TO ALLOW A
SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY INTO NEXT WEEKEND.
AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES 5 TO 10 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL TODAY THROUGH
THE WEEK AHEAD WITH RELATIVE HUMIDITY RANGING FROM THE MID TEENS
TO THE MID TWENTIES. WINDS GENERALLY LIGHT THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
