ECMWF 10-Day Total Rainfall Forecast. GFS 10-Day Total Rainfall Forecast. Canadian (GEM) 10-Day Total Rainfall Forecast. Overall the models are not very optimistic when it comes to rainfall for southeastern New Mexico over the next ten days. However, a tropical wave now located over Texas, will move northwestward into southern New Mexico by Wednesday, and this feature will increase our chances for scattered thunderstorms to break out on Tuesday.  With the eastern Pacific now becoming more active with tropical storms, the Atlantic Basin is forecast to do the same, it would not take much of a pattern shift to get the monsoon to swing back further to the east, and bring some more rainfall back into the area. So this will have to be watched in the coming weeks. The Truth Is Stranger Than Fiction!   My Web Page Is Best Viewed With Google Chrome.

Every once in awhile a Hurricane will form south of the Baja Penisula, work its way northward, and sometimes spread its remnant moisture into our neighborhood. This mornings run of the European (ECMWF) computer model is forecasting just such an event in about a week from this coming Sunday.  Notice its forecast of much cooler temps, and widespread moderate to heavy rains on Sunday, August 25th via the maps posted above. Will this pan out...maybe, maybe not. I'm sorry but its just a tad early to know for sure so we will just have to wait and see.

NWS Mesonet High Temperatures Reported Sunday. For the most part August has been fairly hot and dry over southeastern New Mexico. Contrast this with July which was a cool and wet month for the local area. So far this month I've only manged to squeeze .10" out of my rain gauge here at my home in Carlsbad. Today will be another day with afternoon high temps in the upper 90's to the low 100's.  The Truth Is Stranger Than Fiction!   My Web Page Is Best Viewed With Google Chrome.

With out a doubt the models are really struggling with the easterly wave that is currently located over the Yucatan Peninsula. Since this wave is over land now, and highly disorganized, the models are simply all over the place with their forecasts concerning this system. None of them appear reliable at this time in my opinion.  Yesterday I thought that this system would be named Erin but that's not to be. Tropical Storm Erin has formed about 115 miles west-southwest of Brava, in the Cape Verde Islands. Erin will generally continue moving westward for the next several days. For now, I won't focus much on this system since it will not be impacting the U.S. mainland anytime soon, if at all. Back to our storm that is forecast to enter...

Blog Updated At 2:15 PM MDT Today. Tropical Disturbance Invest AL92.  An area of disturbed weather located northeast of the tip of Honduras and the Cayman islands may now be forming a surface low. This tropical disturbance has a 50% change of becoming a tropical storm within 48 hours, and a 60% chance of becoming a tropical storm within the next five days. It is likely to continue moving off towards the northwest towards the Yucatan Peninsula over the next couple of days and then is expected to enter the Gulf of Mexico by this weekend.  IR Funktop Image @ 9:15 AM.
