I was watching the 'Weather Channel' last night, and I noticed they preferred the terminology 'outflow boundary' to 'gust front'. Either works for me.
(2:40 p.m. PDT) The strip of humid air from Mexico is rather narrow now, and in danger of being interrupted (though not for long; there's more in the deserts of eastern Mexico). There is a stronger likelihood of storms along the edges of this humid strip, and, in fact, there are storms there now: NW NM (it's raining near Window Rock and points north); and along a line from Deming to Tucumcari (with storms near Vaughn and San Andres Mts., plus Ruidoso).
Near, ABQ, it looks like a SSW kind of day. Storms are hugging the mountains at the instant.
(3:20 p.m. PDT) Turning into a westerly day. First gust front evident out on the Laguna Rez, heading east, along with its storm.
(4:45 p.m. PDT) Persistent little storm on the northern flank of the Ladrones, but elsewhere, everything looks like it's collapsing.
(5:00 p.m. PDT) Storms by the Ladrones; storms near Dalies & Hwy 6 - everything heading east. Good orographic precipitation on the west side of the Sierra Nacimiento and into the Jemez, near Cuba.
