EVENT...SOME WEAKENING NM-TX BORDER AREA...JETLET HELPING PANHANDLE
CONVECTION STAY ACTIVE...
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...COLDEST CLOUD TOP AREA SHRINKING A BIT
PAST HR WITH CONVECTIVE BOUNDARY THAT HAS SLOWLY DROPPED SOUTH ALONG
SE NM-W TX BORDER AREA.  STILL SOME INTENSE CELLS BUT A LITTLE MORE
MOVEMENT SOUTH AND SE AND LESS ORGANIZATION...BUT STILL COULD BE ENOUGH
RAINFALL IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME FOR ISOLATED FF S LEA COUNTY NM THRU
ANDREWS COUNTY TX.   AND RESIDUAL MODERATE RAINS STILL HANGING AROUND
IN COOL TOPS JUST BEHIND SE EDGE OF CONVECTIVE BAND...WHERE THERE HAS
BEEN PERSISTENT HVY RAIN ALREADY...IE YOAKUM...TERRY...HOCKLEY COUNTY...
AND WILL ALSO HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM THESE
CONVECTIVE CELLS TRYING TO COOL SOME WARM TOP CLOUDS ACROSS
E CENTRAL NM...WHEREV DEEP MOISTURE HAS TRIED TO SEEP BACK.   THIS FROM
DEBACA TO CHAVES COUNTY...WILL KEEP AN EYE ON THAT THE NEXT FEW HRS.
EARLIER THOUGHT TX PANHANDLE CONVECTION WOULD EITHER BE WEAK OR MOVE
FAST ENOUGH FOR NO PROBLEMS...THAT MAY STILL PAN OUT...BUT NOT AS SURE
AS JETLET FROM CONVECTION TO THE SOUTH/SW HELPING KEEP ACTIVITY GOING IN
THE RANDALL TO GRAY COUNTY AREA...WHERE THERE COULD ONE INCH PER 30-60
MINUTES FALLING AND BAND MOVING STEADILY BUT SLOWLY SE.  WILL MONITOR
THAT AS WELL.
