AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND JUNCTION CO
245 PM MDT TUE JUL 27 2004

.SHORT TERM (THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT)...
ISOLATED STRONG THUNDERSTORMS HAVE FORMED OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF
THE FORECAST AREA.  BUT THE STRONGEST STORM ON RADAR SO FAR HAS
BEEN NORTHWEST OF DEBEQUE IN WHICH A SEVERE TSTORM WARNING HAS BEEN
ISSUED.  STRONG UPPER LEVEL TROUGH APPROACHING SOUTHEAST UTAH AND
EXIT REGION OF SPEED MAXIMA INTO ARIZONA PROVIDING UPPER LEVEL
DIVERGENCE IN UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR STRONGER STORM DEVELOPMENT
THIS AFTERNOON.  BOUNDARY LAYER STILL RELATIVELY DRY BUT THE MID
LEVELS ARE MOIST WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER NEARLY NINE TENTHS OF AN
INCH.  STORMS HAVE RELATIVELY HIGH BASES BUT WITH DEEP CONVECTION
WITH ECHO TOPS OF 45-50K FEET.  THE MAIN THREAT FROM STORMS WILL BE
DOWNBURST WINDS ESPECIALLY SOUTHEAST UTAH...BUT HAIL WILL BE
POSSIBLE ELSEWHERE.  WITH THE LOSS OF SURFACE HEATING BY EARLY
EVENING...STORMS WILL NOT BE QUITE AS STRONG.

CONSIDERABLY LESS CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY EXPECTED ON WEDNESDAY.
FORECAST AREA WILL BE IN BETWEEN SHORT WAVES WITH DRIER AIR BEHIND
TROUGH AXIS.  EVEN WITH MID LEVEL DRYING...SOME BOUNDARY MOISTURE
WILL STILL BE PRESENT FOR SOME AFTERNOON CONVECTION.  BUT CONVECTION
WILL NOT BE ORGANIZED AND WILL BE BATTLING SOME SUBSIDENCE.  MOST
STORMS WILL BE CONFINED OVER THE COLORADO HIGH TERRAIN EAST OF A
LINE FROM RANGELY TO GRAND JUNCTION TO CORTEZ.  SUFFICIENT H7 FLOW
THAT STORMS WILL TRAVEL OFF THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND MOVE OVER THE
VALLEYS LATE IN THE DAY...SO SLIGHT CHANCE POPS ARE STILL WARRANTED
FOR SOME VALLEYS.  TEMPERATURES REBOUND SEVERAL DEGREES GIVEN MORE
SUNSHINE EXPECTED.

.LONG TERM (THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY)...GFS STILL CONTINUES THE TREND
OF MORE AMPLITUDE WITH SHORT WAVES EJECTING FROM THE WESTERLIES. THE
EC ON THE OTHER HAND SHOWS MORE AMPLITUDE WITH THE SOUTHWESTERN
RIDGE. HOWEVER NO REAL BIG DIFFERENCES IN EXPECTED SENSIBLE WEATHER
FOR OUR CWA.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...A NORTHWEST FLOW WILL BE OVER THE CWA WITH
EMBEDDED WEAK SHORT WAVES. ETA INDICATES SPECIFIC HUMIDITIES ALSO
FALLING WITH TIME...SO EXPECT A GRADUAL DECREASE IN POPS. BY FRIDAY
AFTERNOON HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO BUILD OVER THE SOUTHERN BORDER
BETWEEN AZ/NM.

SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...RIDGE OVER THE SOUTHWEST AMPLIFIES
PRODUCING A SOUTHERLY FLOW OVER AZ...THUS BRINGING A RETURN OF
SUBTROPICAL MSTR. LITTLE DAY TO DAY CHANGE EXCEPT THE POSSIBILITY FOR
SHOWERS AND T-SHOWERS SHOULD INCREASE WITH TIME AS THE ATMOSPHERE
MOISTENS. TEMPERATURES GRIDS IN GOOD SHAPE WITH A WARMING TEND.
