Another Round Of Severe T-Storms Today.

Finally our unusually strong and persistent mid-level ridge of high pressure has been pretty much wiped out across the region this morning. Zonal flow has taken over at the mid-levels with embedded disturbances zipping across the area from time to time. These will help destabilize the atmosphere later this afternoon into tonight aiding in the development of scattered t-storms across parts of the state and local area.  

At the surface a southward moving backdoor cold front will sag down the eastern plains and into southeastern New Mexico this afternoon into Saturday morning. This front will provide additional low-level upslope flow/moisture and convergence along it. This will aide in the development in thunderstorms. 

After seeing our afternoon high temps across the southeastern plains climb up into the upper 80's to near 90 this afternoon, cooler air behind the front will only allow us to get up to around 80 or so on Saturday and the mid 80's on Sunday. The low to mid 90's return Monday and Tuesday. 

Across the Sacramento mountains high temps today are forecast to range from the low to mid 60's to the low to mid 70's. Highs on Saturday will only be in the low to upper 60's. Scattered afternoon and evening t-storms are forecast today into the weekend. 

Scattered t-storms are forecast to develop over mainly the eastern one half of the state this afternoon continuing into tonight. Some of these will become severe especially over the eastern and southeastern plains eastward into parts of West Texas. Large hail and damaging thunderstorm wind gusts in excess of 58 mph will be possible.

Locally heavy rainfall will occur with the stronger storms that may cause localized flash flooding. Frequent lightning will also accompany any thunderstorm. Some of the heavier storm total rainfall amounts may be in the 1" to 2" range. 

A few supercell thunderstorms may also develop. These rotating t-storms may produce a few tornadoes. 

Our chances of measurable rainfall across the southeastern plains range from 20% - 30% today, increasing to 50% - 70% tonight. Dropping down into the 20% to 40% range Saturday and Sunday.
