...Southern Rockies to TX tonight...
As part of a split flow regime, a midlevel shortwave trough now
approaching southern CA will continue eastward to southern NM/far
west TX by early Thursday morning. Isolated thunderstorms will also
be possible this evening into tonight across the higher terrain of
northern/eastern AZ into western NM as sufficient midlevel
cooling/moistening contributes to weak buoyancy within the left exit
region of the mid-upper jet. Overnight, a modifying Gulf of Mexico
air mass will return northward to near the lower/middle TX coast at
the surface, and aloft into north/northeast TX. There will be
sufficient destabilization aloft to support elevated thunderstorms
in a strengthening warm advection regime, mainly 08-12z. Any severe
threat will likely be delayed until early in the day 2 forecast
period.
