281 FXUS64 KAMA 120708 AFDAMA Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Amarillo TX 208 AM CDT Sat Sep 12 2020 .DISCUSSION... A surface trough will slowly make its way through the Panhandles today. Increasing low level moisture ahead of it across the eastern Panhandles may cause some fog to form in this area this morning. Have gone ahead and mentioned it through about 10 am. Winds will switch around to the north behind this trough, but speeds will still remain around 15 mph or less. Winds will be light and generally from the east and southeast in the wake of the trough on Sunday. The center of an upper level ridge will build across the 4-corners region Monday and it will sit there through the end of the work week. Then it is expected to break down next weekend. The upper flow over the Panhandles will be northeast with the center of the ridge over the 4-corners. This flow will tend to keep any tropical activity that may try to move into the Texas coast to our south and southeast. There may be a couple of disturbances that will try to bring some chances of rain to our southeast corner, but at this point it looks like the ridge will win out and we will stay dry. Smoke from fires to our west and northwest will move across the Panhandles from time to time. At this point have added some extra cloud cover to the southern Texas Panhandle through Sunday afternoon. Have not added any more cloud cover due to smoke beyond Sunday as it still remains to be seen how much smoke may be caught under the ridge if any at all. High temperatures will be generally near to slightly above normal for this forecast with readings in the 80's to the lower 90's. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
