Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible Valid 220145Z - 220630Z SUMMARY...A few widely scattered incidents of flash flooding remain possible over central to northeastern NM with stronger cells expanding to small clusters with possible upstream redevelopment.=20 DISCUSSION...GOES-E 10.3um EIR has seen a recent uptick in convective development/cooling cloud tops to -65C and below as low-level wind flow has increased from 5-10kts to 15-25kts per VWP at FDX. This is in response to strengthening surface high over northeast NM and low level jet decoupling response at nightfall.=20 Solid low level moisture is feeding these cells but overall depth is a bit less than prior evening's further north, and so convection has remained a bit more scattered. Proximity to the right entrance of the 50kt 300mb jet continues to provide solid evacuation aloft especially for northeast to east-central NM over the next 4-6hrs as the jet axis slides south. As such, stronger updrafts can still support 1.5"/hr rates moving across areas of the upper Pecos River Valley that have been running a bit above average in precip anomalies per AHPS suggesting axis of lower FFG values about 1-1.5"/hr and 1.5-2"/3hr are still approachable and may result is widely scattered smaller scale incidents of flash flooding as the cells expand to clusters. Additionally, return flow through the leading line back toward the southern Sangre de Cristo as well as E Manzano Ranges will support solid moisture flux convergence for additional upstream thunderstorms to develop. With stronger east or southeasterly flow, propagation off the terrain is possible (esp, further north nearer stronger 700-500mb flow) and may allow for spots of repeating overnight.=20 Gallina ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov__;!!= DZ3fjg!_uxxxF7C1IBtISMtRwfbQpCnLxoF9GLoSvXkSA7Z-txh2Sv-lnEhKM2wxH5nTkS0dh6n= Rmf7pCtNnHzA9gUs95fLe2g$ for graphic product...
