Wx discussion Thursday

The High that has been dominating the weather in the west this past week is still making it's way across the country leaving an inverted ridge over most of Texas. This should almost eliminate the chance of precipitation despite dew points in the mid sixties. This humidity should mellow the overnight low and keep it in the upper sixties. The clear skys should continue bringing the high temperature up to the high eighties low nineties. These high conditions and the general flow from the west will act to counteract the usual windy conditions in this coastal area keeping the winds below 15 knots or so.

Forecast for September 30, 2010

Good morning everyone!

Brownsville is still currently under a strong high pressure system, bringing warm temperatures during the day, with temperatures staying cooler in the evening. Expect highs to be around 89 and over night lows to be around 63. Winds are from the north/northeast and should stay relatively calm throughout the day, around 5-10mph, but climatology data suggests that sustained wind 2 minute maximums could hover around 15 - 20 mph. No precipitation is expected as the high pressure is creating dry conditions.

Happy forecasting!

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29TH

Highs will remain in the upper 80's, possibly about 88, with overnight temperatures in the lower 60's as high pressure remains over south Texas. Upper level diffluence signals slightly lighter winds for the area, near 15 knots. It will remain dry and virtually cloudless, with no precipitation expected.

Brownsville TX, 9-28-10

Tuesday, 9-28-10 high temperature will reach 87 degrees, overnight low will not drop below 60 and steady north wind will remain around 10mph. Expect advection fog in the morning, and clear skies for the duration of the day. A large high pressure system over the region, coupled with a lack of available moisture will inhibit precipitation Tuesday and for the next few days.

Week Outlook for Brownsville, TX

After a recent cold front, the upcoming week will be dry with warm temperatures. High pressure over the Midwest will create northerly winds for Texas bringing in warm, dry conditions that will last all week. High temperatures will be a little warmer than average with low temps expected to be about average. No precipitation is expected as the surface High pressure and upper level ridge stay relatively stationary all week.

Forecast for Tuesday, Sept. 14

Dry, mild conditions will continue for the Denver area with a cool down later this week. A persistant ridge over Colorado will keep the temperature about the same with a high tomorrow of 87F. Clear skies overnight tonight but warm ground temperatures will keep tonight's low around 53F. Without any persistant wind pattern or advancing fronts the winds tomorrow will be calm with a max around 9 kts and no precipatation is expected with 0.00in. The dry, warm pattern will continue through mid to late week when a cold front passage will cool down the temperature but has little moisture associated with it. There is little chance of percip. with the front which is needed to help combat the fire conditions.

Denver, Co 9-14-10

Daytime high 88, night time low 56 winds variable and 10mph max, no precip tomorrow within forecast area, however daytime heating may cause convection along topographic features. An upper level ridge is positioned to block the southern propogation of a cold surface front tomorrow, allowing Denver temperatures to reach almost 90. A persistence forecast is sufficiant for tomorrow's weather because no active pressure systems are moving in to affect the area. Winds will remain below 10 mph and be vairable from west to north in direction due to slight pressure change over the day. Precipitation potential over the area is very low while daytime heating could cause convection near the Cheyanne Ridge and into northeast CO. Night conditions will remain mild with a low around 56 degrees as slight cloud cover will retard night time cooling.
