AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
419 AM MDT WED JUN 15 2005

.SHORT TERM...
(TODAY AND TONIGHT)

SHORT TERM CONCERNS INCLUDE TEMPERATURES AND POPS ALONG WITH THE
POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE WEATHER ACROSS THE PLAINS.

CURRENTLY...WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS SHORTWAVE OVER UTAH WITH
CLOUDS AND ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
THIS WILL BE THE TRIGGER FOR THUNDERSTORMS TODAY ACROSS THE
CWFA.

TODAY...SHORT WAVE TOPS RIDGE AND WILL MOVE ACROSS THE EAST IN THE
AFTERNOON.  IT WILL PROVIDE LIFT...ALONG WITH MID AND UPPER LEVEL
MOISTURE.  STEEP LAPSE RATES OF GREATER THAN 9C/KM AND SUFFICIENT
MOISTURE YIELDS PRECIPITATION CHANCES OVER THE ENTIRE AREA. ISOLATED
THUNDER OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF THE AREA THIS MORNING AS WAVE
IS VIGOROUS ENOUGH TO SPARK LIGHTNING IN ARCHULETA AND HINSDALE
COUNTIES JUST TO OUR WEST.  ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL SPREAD OVER THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA THROUGH THE
DAY. WITH INCREASING SOUTHWEST FLOW...LEE TROUGH/DRY LINE PUSHES
ACROSS THE FAR EASTERN PLAINS IN THE AFTERNOON...WITH SOUNDINGS
INDICATING CAPES BETWEEN 1500-2500 J/KG FAR EASTERN PLAINS. DRY LINE
AND SYNOPTIC LIFT...INSTABILITY AND MARGINAL BULK SHEARS BETWEEN 25
AND 30 KTS...SO COULD SEE A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS POP IN THE
AFTERNOON IN THE EAST...WITH MAIN THREATS BEING LARGE HAIL WITH FAST
UPDRAFTS...AND STRONG WINDS...WITH DCAPES OVER 2K J/KG IN FAR EAST.

TONIGHT...WAVE PASSES ON TO THE EAST AND ATMOSPHERE STABILIZES IN
THE EARLY EVENING...EVEN OUT EAST.  SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE POPS
KEPT THROUGH MIDNIGHT...THEN SKIES WILL BECOME MOSTLY CLEAR -TLM-

.LONG TERM...
(THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY)

THE UPR RIDGE WL STILL BE OVR THE AREA ON THU BUT ANOTHER WEAK
SHRTWV IS EXPECTED TO MOVE OVR THE AREA AND COULD CAUSE A FEW
SHOWERS AND TSTMS OVR THE ERN MTS AND PLAINS DURING THE AFTERNOON
AND EVENING HOURS.  ON THE FAR E PLAINS DEW POINTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE
IN THE 50S...AND AFTERNOON CAPE VALUES ARE FORECAST TO RANGE FROM
AROUND 600 J/KG OVR EL PASO COUNTY...TO AROUND 2600 J/KG OVR PROWERS
AND BACA COUNTIES. SO WE COULD SEE A COUPLE SEVERE STORMS MAINLY OVR
THE FAR SERN PLAINS.

ON FRI THE UPR RIDGE AXIS WL HAVE SHIFTED E OF THE AREA AS AN UPR
TROF MOVES ONTO THE W COAST. WE COULD SEE SOME ISOLD SHOWERS/TSTMS
DEVELOP OVR SOME OF THE ERN AREAS IN THE AFTERNOON...BUT THE MODELS
REALLY ARE NOT INDICATING MUCH.  MSTR APPEARS TO BE LACKING AND IT
DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THERE ARE ANY UPR LVL DISTURBANCES TO HELP GET
THINGS GOING. THE GFS INDICATES SOME SLIGHTLY COOLER AIR MOVING INTO
THE FAR ERN PLAINS...WHILE THE NAM KEEPS THINGS AS WARM AS ON THU.
WL STICK CLOSER TO THE NAM FOR NOW.

SAT THE UPR HIGH WL BE CENTERED OVR NRN MEXICO AND THEN IT SHIFTS
NORTHWARD INTO WRN TX FOR SUN AND DRIFTS A LITTLE WESTWARD FOR MON
AND TUE.  IN GENERAL THE WEA SHOULD REMAIN DRY...BUT THERE IS ALWAYS
THE POSSIBILITY OF A FEW DIURNAL SHOWERS/TSTMS DEVELOPING.

TEMPS THU THE PERIOD WL REMAIN ABOVE NORMAL.  THE WARM TEMPS AND
GENERALLY DRY WEA WL ALLOW FUELS TO DRY THRU THE PERIOD WHICH WL BE
A FIRE WEA CONCERN.
