Why Are My Weather Posts Missing From Facebook.

Hello everyone. I just wanted to let you know that my Facebook page was shut down without any warning by Facebook this past Saturday, June 8th. All I was told was that I had violated their community standards. I don't know what triggered that; they didn't tell me. I was told this may be permanent or for six months.
My guess is that it may be because I posted several comments and articles from my Substack page about the riots in LA, and that must have triggered/angered someone, and they complained, thus Facebook shut me down. I don't know this as fact, though. I have appealed this decision, and I'm still waiting for their reply. I have read on X that this has happened to other Facebook users posting about the LA riots as well.
I always share my weather blog posts (that I post here) on my Facebook page and my X page. This included over twelve different New Mexico and West Texas Facebook Community sites. So there are thousands of you out there (based on my views and shares of those posts) who will no longer see those posts. My Facebook page may or may not be restored.
This is another good reason (as the National Weather Service often reminds us) to have multiple ways of receiving severe weather alerts when severe weather threatens your location. My weather web page is one of those ways, and I really appreciate all of you who have and still do use it. Thank you so much!!!
If my Facebook page is restored, I will continue to share my weather blog posts and some of the NWS Watches and Warnings...as I have been doing for years now.

Hot Again Today - Cooler & Maybe Some Rain Thursday.


Blog Updated @ 9:10 AM MDT.




24-Hour Difference In Temperatures @ 5 AM MDT This Morning.
 




Note several locations in Montana have reported single digit temps for lows this morning.


A fairly deep and cold upper level trough of low pressure is currently swinging eastward across the northern states this morning. The southern end of the trough (depicted above at the 18,000' level) will swing across northern New Mexico today and tonight. This will shove a southward moving cold front into southeastern New Mexico by around sunset this evening.


RAP Forecast Temperatures @ Noon MDT.

RAP Forecast Temperatures @ 6 PM MDT.


GFS Forecast Temperature Departures From Normal @ 6 PM MDT Today.

High temperatures are forecast to climb up to the upper 80's to near 90 today in southeastern New Mexico. Highs in the mountains will range from near 70 in the Cloudcroft area to near 75 in the Mayhill and Ruidoso and Capitan areas. These readings are forecast to be some 10 to 15 degrees above normal for October 12th. 

Highs on Thursday are forecast to be some 15 to 20 degrees cooler behind the cold front with readings near 70 across the southeastern plains and near 60 to 70 degrees in the mountains.


Cold air is invading the northern states. Frost Advisories and Freeze Warnings are in effect for Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Oregon, Washington, and Idaho.






Cooler moist low level upslope southeasterly flow behind the cold front and passing weak upper level disturbances passing overhead will combine to give us a slight chance for a few scattered rain showers and thunderstorms across southeastern New Mexico and the nearby Guadalupe, Sacramento, and Capitan mountains tonight into Thursday night. Overall rainfall totals are forecast to be under one half of an inch.

Notice that snow is in the forecast for parts of the mountains of the Pacific Northwest into Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho. Winter is not that far away. Heavy rains are forecast from northern California northward into Washington along the coast and mountains. Some totals may approach 10" by Friday.



Long range forecasts for the local area generally keep our temperatures slightly above normal over the next ten days starting on Friday. So for now there isn't any indications of a frost/freeze in our near future here in southeastern New Mexico. 

(Jan-Sept 2016).

Rainfall Totals Jan - Sept 2016.

Precipitation Departure Anomalies (1901-2000).

Parts of New England and the Southeast continue to experience extreme drought conditions. While parts of southeastern Texas and southern Louisiana are some 15" to nearly 20" above normal.
