AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER CO
220 PM MDT FRI AUG 19 2005

.SHORT TERM...MAIN JET RELATED FORCING IS ON THE NORTHERN AND
SOUTHERN FRINGES OF OUR AREA THIS EVENING...BUT LIKE YESTERDAY THERE
IS STILL ENOUGH MOISTURE FOR WEAK CONVECTION. ONCE AGAIN WIND WILL
BE THE MAIN FEATURE OF THE STORMS. THERE IS A BIT LESS MOISTURE IN
THE MOUNTAINS AND A BIT MORE ON THE PLAINS COMPARED TO YESTERDAY...
COULD HAVE A BIT STRONGER CONVECTION OUT TOWARD THE EASTERN BORDER.
WHILE I EXPECT QUITE A DECREASE IN STORMS AT SUNSET...THE BLOB OVER
UTAH WILL LIKELY STICK TOGETHER AND WILL BRUSH THE SOUTHERN FRINGES
OF OUR AREA THROUGH THE EVENING. DITTO FOR THE BAND SCOOTING ALONG
THE NORTHERN BORDER. I WILL EXTEND SOME LOW POPS AFTER MIDNIGHT FOR
THIS. ON SATURDAY MOISTURE WILL BE LINGERING OVER SOUTHEASTERN
COLORADO...WITH SOME DRYING FURTHER NORTH. SUNSHINE SHOULD HEAT THE
REMAINING MOISTURE...COULD BE A MAXIMA OF ACTIVITY ON THE EDGE OF
THE CLOUD SHIELD ON THE SOUTHERN FRINGE OF OUR AREA. WHILE SURFACE
WINDS WILL BE LIGHT...THERE MAY BE ENOUGH CAPE FOR A FEW SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS. THERE IS ACTUALLY SOME WARMING ALOFT WHICH MAY HELP
LIMIT CONVECTION IN THE NORTHERN PART OF THE AREA. RAISED TEMPS A
BIT SATURDAY FOR THIS AND MORE SUN.

.LONG TERM...WEAK WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT IS PROGGED FOR THE FORECAST
AREA SATURDAY NIGHT WITH THE UPPER RIDGE CENTER TO OUR SOUTHWEST.
THE QG VERTICAL VELOCITY FIELDS SHOW VERY WEAK UPWARD MOVING AIR
PROGGED FOR SUNDAY...THEN WEAK DOWNWARD MONDAY LATE IN THE DAY.
LOW LEVEL PRESSURE AND WIND FIELDS SHOW EAST-SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW IN
THE BOUNDARY LAYER FOR SUNDAY...THAN NORMAL DIURNAL WIND PATTERNS
FOR MONDAY.  FOR MOISTURE...LIMITED MID AND UPPER LEVEL MOISTURE IS
PROGGED SATURDAY EVENING.  BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING...THERE IS A
BIT MORE IN THE MID AND UPPER LEVELS.  SOME HANGS AROUND OVERNIGHT
IN THE UPPER LEVELS.  MONDAY LOOKS ABOUT THE SAME AS SUNDAY.  THE
BOUNDARY LAYER DEW POINT FIELDS HAVE DECENT VALUES FLUSHED EAST LATE
SATURDAY.  BUT SUNDAY AFTERNOON...THEIR ARE DEW POINTS NEAR 60 F
OVER THE NORTHEAST CORNER.  THEY ARE EAST AGAIN MONDAY. THE THETA-E
AXIS IS EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA SATURDAY EVENING.  IT GETS INTO
THE FAR NORTHEAST CORNER LATE DAY SUNDAY.  ITS A BIT EAST OF THERE
LATE DAY MONDAY.   THERE IS SOME CAPE OVER THE NORTHEAST SATURDAY
EVENING...BETTER SUNDAY LATE DAY...EVEN SOME OVER THE FRONT RANGE.
ON MONDAY THERE IS SOME ALL OVER...THE BEST OVER THE NORTHEAST
CORNER...BUT OVERALL LESS THAN SUNDAY.  CROSS SECTIONS SHOW DECENT
STEEP LAPSE RATES IN THE LOWER LEVELS.  THERE IS A CAP IN THE MID
LAYERS SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...LESS OF ONE ON MONDAY.  THE POTENTIAL
INSTABILITY IS PRETTY GOOD ALL THREE DAYS.  THERE IS LIMITED QPF
INDICATED ALL THREE DAYS...THE MOST SUNDAY LATE DAY.  SO THE BEST
POPS WILL BE SUNDAY...BUT ONLY SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN THE OTHER TWO
DAYS...WHICH WILL HAVE THE BARE MINIMUM.  FOR TEMPERATURES...
READINGS WILL NOT FLUCTUATE GREATLY THROUGH THE PERIOD.   THE
WARMEST DAY WILL BE MONDAY...BUT NOT MUCH DIFFERENT FROM SUNDAY.

FOR THE LAST FOUR DAYS...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...MODELS HAVE THE
UPPER RIDGE FLATTENED QUITE A BIT ON TUESDAY...WITH ZONAL FLOW
ALOFT.  THE RIDGE STAYS FLATTENED ON WEDNESDAY WITH AN UPPER TROUGH
MOVING EASTWARD TO OUR NORTH.  BY FRIDAY...THE FLOW ALOFT IS
NORTHWESTERLY.  ON SATURDAY IT CONTINUES WITH THE UPPER RIDGE
BUILDING BACK TO OUR WEST.  THERE IS SOME MID AND UPPER LEVEL
MOISTURE INDICATED TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.  ON FRIDAY...THE
MOISTURE INCREASES.  WILL KEEP LIMITED POPS THROUGH THE PERIOD.
TEMPERATURES LOOK AROUND NORMAL.

.BOU...NONE.
