AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
230 PM MDT FRI JUL 1 2005

.SHORT TERM...
(TONIGHT AND SATURDAY)

CURRENTLY SATELLITE INDICATES A BOUNDARY THE EXTENDS TO NRN EL PASO
COUNTY.  ALONG THIS BOUNDARY THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN FIRING.  SFC
DEW POINTS OVR THE SERN CO PLAINS AREA IN THE MID 40S TO LOWER 50S
AND SERLY UPSLOPE FLOW INDICATED BY KPUX...UP TO ABOUT 9000 FT MSL.
0-6KM SHEAR VALUES ARE 35-45 KTS.  CAPE VALUES ARE FORECAST TO
RANGE FROM AROUND 600 J/KG NR THE ERN MTS TO AROUND 2500 J/KG OVR
THE FAR SERN COUNTIES.  ALL THIS SHOULD LEAD TO ISOLD TO SCT TSTMS
OVR THE SERN PLAINS AND THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME SEVERE WEATHER.
WILL KEEP JUST ISOLD POPS OVR WRN AREAS WHERE THE DRY LOWER LEVELS
WL MEAN THE MAIN THREAT FROM SHOWERS AND TSTMS WL BE WIND.  WL KEEP
SOME POPS GOING INTO THE LATE NIGHT HRS AGAIN FOR THE FAR SE PLAINS.

ON SATURDAY THERE WL STILL BE SOME MID LVL MSTR IN PLACE LIKE
TODAY...BUT WITH WARMER TEMPS ALOFT THE ATMOSPHERE SHOULD BE
HARDER TO GET STORMS GOING...SO WL JUST GO WITH AROUND 10 PERCENT
COVERAGE OF POPS OVR THE MTS AND NEARBY PLAINS FOR THE AFTERNOON
HOURS.  700MB TEMPS OVR THE AREA ARE FORECAST TO BE 1 TO 4 C WARMER
THAN TODAY...THUS TEMPS WL STILL BE ABOVE NORMAL...HAVE MADE JUST A
FEW ADJUSTMENTS TO MAX T GRID.

.LONG TERM...
(SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)

...POTENTIAL FOR MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEMS IN AND AROUND
EASTERN COLORADO JUST ABOUT EACH DAY...

UPPER LEVEL PATTERN PROJECTED TO REMAIN NEARLY STAGNANT INTO NEXT
WEEK WITH A BROAD AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE DESERT SW AND
OLD MEXICO. SOME STRENGTHENING(E.G. HEIGHT RISES) ARE BEING
FORECAST TOWARDS THE END OF THE PERIOD. THIS PROMOTES WLY FLOW
ALOFT WITH MINOR SHORTWAVE TROUGHS MOVING THROUGH THE FLOW AND THE
CNTRL ROCKIES BEING ON THE SRN FRINGE OF THE WESTERLIES. ALSO...IN
THE LOW LEVELS...A (QUASI-STATIONARY) FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE IN
AND AROUND ERN CO INTO THE PLAINS AND MIDWEST WITH SFC HIGH
PRESSURE ACROSS THE NRN TIER OF THE CONTIGUOUS 48 STATES. THIS
PATTERN...IF IT MATERIALIZES...WILL BE HIGHLY SUSCEPTIBLE FOR NOCTURNAL
MCS ACTIVITY JUST ABOUT EVERY DAY. LOW LEVEL DEW POINTS(E.G.
50S/60S IN ERN CO/WRN KS) WILL PROBABLY POOL ALONG AND NORTH OF
THE FRONT IN ERN CO INTO THE PLAINS. AS THE MINOR SHORTWAVE
TROUGHS MOVE THROUGH THE CNTRL ROCKIES...ISOLD-SCT SHRA/TSRA WILL
LIKELY DEVELOP IN THE AFTN AND THEN EVOLVE INTO A MCS ACROSS THE
CNTRL PLAINS DURING THE NGT. THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE IN THESE PATTERNS
IS THE ACTUALLY LOCATION OF THE COLD FRONT/OUTFLOW BOUNDARY IN THE
MORNING...WHICH IS THE PRECURSOR TO THE AFTN AND NIGHTTIME
SHRA/TSRA FORECAST. ALSO WITH THIS DIFFICULT LOW LEVEL BOUNDARY
FORECAST...TEMPS WILL BE A CHALLENGE IN ERN CO. IF THESE CLUSTER
OF SHRA/TSRA FORM IN ERN CO...THERE WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR
HEAVY RAIN WITH PROJECTED K-INDICES OF 40-45C. ALSO...THERE COULD
BE A SEVERE CONVECTIVE WEATHER POTENTIAL. MEANWHILE...FURTHER WEST
TOWARDS THE CONTDVD...MAINLY WARM/HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL BE
LIKELY WITH H7 TEMPS OF +15C TO +20C...HAINES INDICES OF
5-6...MINIMUM RH VALUES OF < 20%...AND FUELS CONTINUING TO CURE.
THE FIRE DANGER THREAT WILL LIKELY INCREASE WITH NO WIDESPREAD
WETTING PRECIPITATION ON THE HORIZON FOR THE CONTDVD. METZE
