Initial thoughts on convection for AMA

GOES-R/CIMMS CAPE values continue to increase across southeastern portions of the Albuquerque, NM, area towards the southwestern portions of the AMA CWA. Values are not markedly high, on the order of 400-500 J/KG, but skies continue to clear in the wake of convection earlier this morning allowing for greater destabilization later this afternoon.
















The UAH GOES-R convective initiation probabilities continue to also increase for southeastern portions of the ABQ CWA and southern portions of the AMA CWA. Reflectivities remain weak moving northeast in the southern AMA CWA, but expect coverage to increase as the storms move into the more favorable environment.
