240 PM MDT SAT AUG 26 2006

.SHORT TERM...
(TONIGHT AND SUNDAY)

INTERESTING AFTERNOON WITH SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH BOX FOR OUR
WESTERN COUNTIES ALONG THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE...AN AREA WHICH RARELY
HAS SEEN A BOX THE LAST 10 YEARS. SEVERE OUT WEST CERTAINLY A THREAT
AS STRONG UPPER JET WRAPS AROUND THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE UPPER LOW
OVER NRN UTAH. BULK SHEARS OF 50-55 KNOTS WITH CAPES OVER 1000 OVER
FROM THE SANGRES WWD WILL SUPPORT ISOLATED LARGE HAIL AND GUSTY
WINDS THROUGH AT LEAST EARLY EVENING. AIRMASS OVER THE EASTERN
MOUNTAINS AND PLAINS LOOKS TOO STABLE FOR SEVERE...THOUGH AN
ISOLATED LOW END SEVERE STORM COULD HOLD TOGETHER ACROSS FREMONT OR
TELLER COUNTIES THIS AFTERNOON. WILL STILL SEE A GOOD DEAL OF WEAK
CONVECTION ALONG AND EAST OF I-25 HOWEVER...WITH FAIRLY MOIST AIR
MASS AND INCREASING SYNOPTIC LIFT.  WOULD EXPECT PCPN TO CONTINUE
OVERNIGHT AS FAVORABLE DYNAMIC LIFT PERSISTS. CURRENT GRIDS LOOK
OK...THOUGH DID DROP THE MENTION OF SEVERE OVER THE I-25 CORRIDOR.

SUNDAY...UPPER LOW EJECTS EASTWARD ACROSS NORTHERN COLORADO...WITH
PUSH OF DRIER AIR IN THE MID LEVELS OVER MUCH OF SOUTHERN COLORADO
PRIOR TO 18Z. LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY REMAINS IN
PLACE...WITH CAPES OVER 1000 J/KG OVER PARTS OF THE PLAINS. BEST BET
FOR STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WOULD BE FAR EAST AND SOUTHEAST
PLAINS...WITH NICE FRONTOGENESIS OVER THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE
AREA AFTER 18Z. I-25 CORRIDOR NOT LOOKING QUITE AS FAVORABLE FOR
TSRA...AS WLY FLOW DEEPENS...THOUGH IF SYSTEM IS JUST SLIGHTLY
SLOWER...SEVERE THREAT WILL SPREAD WESTWARD. WILL KEEP GENERAL TREND
OF GRIDS INTACT...AND MAKE FEW CHANGES.

.LONG TERM...
(SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)

MAIN CONCERN ARE PCPN CHANCES WITH THE UPPER LOW/TROF FOR SUNDAY
NIGHT AND MON. MODELS ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT
TO THE POSITION AND STRENGTH OF THE UPR LEVEL SYSTEM SUNDAY
NIGHT....SHOWING IT CENTERED OVR WRN NE AND NERN CO EARLY...AND
THEN MOVING A LITTLE FARTHER E BY MON MORNING. THIS POSITION
ALLOWS FOR STILL GOOD CHANCES OF PCPN...ESPECIALLY OVR SERN CO
DURING THE EVENING HOURS...AND THEN TAPERING OFF OR ENDING
OVERNIGHT AS THE UPR TROF GETS FARTHER EAST. MON/MON NIGHT THE UPR
LOW STALLS OUT OVR NE AND THE TROF EXTENDS BACK OVR CO...WITH THE
MODELS INDICATING SOME WEAK SHRTWV ENERGY AND MSTR WRAPPING AROUND
THE BACKSIDE OF THE LOW OVR THE FORECAST AREA...WITH NORTHEAST
UPSLOPE FLOW ALONG THE SERN MTS. HAVE INCREASED POPS A LITTLE IN
THIS AREA. FOR TUE THE UPR TROF CENTER MOVES OF WRN IA/ERN NE...WL
STILL HAVE SOME MSTR AND UPSLOPE FLOW TO WORK WITH OVR THE
FORECAST AREA...SO WL KEEP GENERALLY ISOLD POPS OVR MAINLY THE MTS
AND NEARBY AREAS. TUE NIGHT A SHRTWV RIDGE BUILD OVR THE AREA.
THIS RIDGE THEN GETS PUSHED E A LITTLE...TO ERN CO/WRN KS DURING
THE DAY WED AS A NEW UPR TROF MOVES OVR THE PAC NW. WED WL
PROBABLY BE A FAIRLY DRY DAY AND A LITTLE WARMER. ON THU WE GET
INCREASED WRLY FLOW ALOFT OVR THE AREA THAT SHOULD ALSO BE FAIRLY
DRY AND WARM. AT THE SAME TIME THAT UPR TROF WL BE MOVING INTO THE
WRN HALF OF MT AND WY. AFTER THURSDAY...THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY
AS TO EXACTLY WHAT WILL HAPPEN. THE GFS TAKES THAT UPR TROF ACRS
ND ON FRI...AND SENDS A FRONT INTO SERN CO EARLY IN THE
DAY...WHICH BRINGS COOLER TEMPS AND THE LATEST MEX GUIDANCE CAME
IN ABOUT 5-10 DEGREES COOLER THAN THE PREVIOUS ONE. THE ECMWF HAS
A DIFFERENT SOLUTION WHICH IS TO MOVE THAT SYSTEM MUCH
SLOWER...AND IT HAS TO TROF BACK OVR WRN MT AND OVR ID FRI
AFTERNOON INSTEAD OF OVR THE DAKOTAS LIKE THE GFS. THUS IT DOES
NOT SEND A FRONT THRU SERN CO ON FRI AND THUS TEMPS ARE WARMER. AS
A RESULT...WL MAKE FEW IS ANY CHANGES TO FRI AND SAT.
