AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
232 PM MDT SUN JUL 10 2005

.SHORT TERM...
(TONIGHT AND TOMORROW)

MAIN SHORT TERM CONCERNS WINDS OVER FIRE AREA AND FRONTAL PASSAGE ON
MONDAY.

UPPER RIDGE FLATTENED OUT SOMEWHAT FOLLOWING SHORT WAVE PASSAGE
LAST NIGHT AND UPPER TROF HAS PUSHED INTO WESTERN COLORADO. DRY
SWATH OVER CWFA THIS MORNING BEING OVERRUN BY THE MID TO UPPER LEVEL
MOISTURE AHEAD OF THE TROF. SOME FLAT CU AND STRATOCU SPREADING
ACROSS PIKES PEAK REGION. SURFACE DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW 30S ALONG I-
25 CORRIDOR AND 20S OVER EASTERN MOUNTAINS. GUSTY SURFACE WINDS
ALONG EASTERN BORDER AND NEAR CONTINENTAL DIVIDE. OTHERWISE WEAK
GRADIENT EXCEPT ALONG EAST SLOPE OF WET MOUNTAINS. MASON FIRE
PROVIDING ITS OWN ATMOSPHERE. FREQUENT UPWARD SURGES OF SMOKE SEEN
FROM THE WFO. KPUX VELOCITY DATA SHOWING WELL DEFINED SMOKE
SIGNATURE WITH DIFFLUENT WINDS ABOVE 20K FEET. CONDITIONS NEAR THE
FIRE APPEAR TO BE LOCALLY ENHANCED AND EXPECT THAT TO CONTINUE INTO
THE EVENING. KEPT WINDS UP THROUGH THE EVENING ALONG THE EAST SLOPE
OF THE WET MOUNTAINS.

TONIGHT...WESTERN TROF APPROACHES AND WILL HELP MAINTAIN A WESTERLY
WIND COMPONENT WELL INTO THE NIGHT. TROF WILL TRACK ACROSS NORTH OF
THE CWFA BUT WILL STILL INFLUENCE THE WINDS.

MONDAY...USED NAM FOR FRONTAL TIMING ON MONDAY. FRONTAL PASSAGE
PROBABLY LATE AFTERNOON. NAM HAS MUCH MORE PRECIP FORECAST FOR THE
AREA WHILE THE GFS IS NEARLY DRY. USING NAM FIGURE A NORTHEAST WIND
COMPONENT FOR THE AFTERNOON AND KEPT ISOLATED POPS FOR EASTERN
MOUNTAINS AND SPREAD 10 POPS ACROSS EASTERN PLAINS AFTER 21Z
THINKING SOME CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY POSSIBLE AHEAD OF NEXT BOUNDARY.

.LONG TERM...
(MON NITE TO NEXT SUNDAY)

...MAIN CONCERN IS METEOROLOGY WHICH WILL AFFECT THE FIRE WEST OF
   PUEBLO, COLORADO...

FRONT WHICH MOVED INTO THE PLAINS DURING THE DAY MONDAY SHOULD
BE INTO N NM BY 00Z TUESDAY. SOMEWHAT COOLER AIR WILL BE ADVECTED
INTO THE REGION ALONG WITH AN INCREASING CHANCE OF POPS MON EVENING.
BEST CHANCE WILL BE ALONG THE S FACING SLOPES OF THE S MTNS AND I-25
CORRIDOR...AND LEFT HIGHEST POPS (30%) THIS REGION (ACTUAL NAM MOS
VALUES HIGHER BUT WILL PLAY IT CONSERVATIVE FOR NOW).

THERE WILL LIKELY BE SOME LOWER CLOUDS LOCATED OVER ABOVE MENTIONED
AREAS ON TUESDAY MORNING. WITH FRONT COMING THROUGH...TEMPS TUESDAY
WILL BE A BIT COOLER THAN 4 AM FCST...AND BUMPED THEM DOWN A FEW
DEGREES OVER MOST OF THE AREA. IT APPEARS THIS BOUNDARY IS GOING TO
BE FAIRLY DEEP...SO MSTR SHOULD WORK ITS WAY WEST INTO THE SLV AND
SJU MTN REGIONS...WITH CORRESPONDING POPS INCREASING OVER THESE
REGIONS.

THIS FRONT IN THE SHORT TERM SHOULD HELP PUT THE BRAKES ON THE FIRE
BURNING WEST OF PUEBLO. COOLER AIR...A GOOD SHOT OF SOME RAIN...AND
INCREASING RH VALUES ALONG WITH LESSER LAPSE RATES WILL ASSIST IN
SUPPRESSING THE FIRE. MAIN CONCERN HOWEVER...IS NE TO EAST WINDS WILL
PUSH THE FIRE BACK DEEPER INTO THE WET MTNS. THIS IS A CONCERN AS
TEMPS WILL ONCE AGAIN BE ON THE INCREASE BY WEDNESDAY WITH HIGHS BACK
WELL INTO THE 90S. WINDS IN THE LOWER LVLS BY WED WILL BE MORE FROM
THE EAST TO NORHTEAST WHICH WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH THE FIRE BACK INTO
HIER TRRN OF THE WET MTNS.

DID NOT MAKE MUCH CHANGES TO THE LONGER RANGE FORECAST. HIGHS WILL
BE WELL INTO THE 90S EACH DAY WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE OF POPS EACH DAY
MAINLY ALONG THE E FACING SLOPES OF THE S MTNS. WITH THE LARGE HIGH
TO OUR WEST...FLOW ALOFT WILL MAINLY BE FROM A N TO NELY
COMPONENT.

AS A SIDE NOTE...IF GFS IS CORRECT...WE MAY SEE A MAJOR COOL DOWN BY
AFTER NEXT WEEKEND. HOWEVER...THIS FRONT JUST LOOKS...FROM A
CLIMATOLOGICAL STANDPOINT...A BIT TOO STRONG. /HODANISH
