* UNTIL MIDNIGHT MDT TONIGHT

* SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPING OVER THE NORTHERN
  FRONT RANGE FOOTHILLS AND NORTHERN WELD COUNTY EARLY THIS
  AFTERNOON. ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WITH HEAVY RAINFALL
  IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL AND NORTHEASTERN
  COLORADO THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING. INITIAL
  THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT HAS SHOWN THE SLOW STORM MOTIONS THAT
  WERE EXPECTED. THE COMBINATION OF A MOIST ATMOSPHERE AND LIGHT
  WINDS ALOFT WILL CONTINUE THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINS TO
  PERSIST OVER AREAS FOR SEVERAL HOURS. SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS
  TODAY WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING UP TO 4 INCHES OF RAIN IN A 3
  HOUR PERIOD. WHILE HEAVY RAIN COULD OCCUR ANYWHERE IN THE WATCH
  AREA...THE THREAT OF FLASH FLOODING IS ENHANCED IN AREAS OF
  STEEP TERRAIN SUCH AS CANYONS IN THE FOOTHILLS...IN THE HAYMAN
  AND OVERLAND FIRE BURN AREAS...IN CITIES...AND IN WESTERN
  WASHINGTON COUNTY WHERE THERE WAS SOME HEAVY RAINFALL LAST
  NIGHT. RUNOFF WILL BE FASTER IN THESE AREAS ALLOWING FOR
  FLOODING TO DEVELOP QUICKLY ONCE HEAVY RAIN BEGINS.

...REPEAT THIS IS A WATCH AND NOT A WARNING...

A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MEANS THAT FLASH FLOODING IS POSSIBLE...BUT
NOT IMMINENT...WITHIN THE WATCH AREA. PEOPLE IN THE WATCH AREA
SHOULD KEEP AN EYE ON THE WEATHER AND BE PREPARED FOR IMMEDIATE
ACTION SHOULD HEAVY RAINS AND FLASH FLOODING OCCUR...OR IF A
FLASH FLOOD WARNING IS ISSUED.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER CO
400 AM MDT FRI JUL 27 2007

.SHORT TERM...MOISTURE HAS INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY WITH GRADUAL
INFLUX OF SLIGHTLY COOLER BUT WETTER AIR FROM THE NORTHEAST
OVERNIGHT. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES FROM GPS SENSORS UP TO AROUND
1.4 INCHES NOW. AIRMASS IS ONLY WEAKLY CAPPED...STILL GETTING SOLID
UPDRAFTS IN FRESH AREAS OF CONVERGENCE...MOST RECENTLY STORM NEAR
NEW RAYMER THAT WAS THE DEEPEST YET WITH 40 KFT RADAR TOP. SO WE ARE
ONLY WEAKLY CAPPED. DEEPER CLOUD COVER MAY HOLD BACK TEMPERATURE
RISE IN AREAS WHERE CONVECTION WAS ALL NIGHT...MAINLY WASHINGTON
COUNTY AND NE OF FORT COLLINS. ELSEWHERE THOUGH THE CLOUD COVER DOES
NOT APPEAR TO BE THAT SOLID. 10 DEGREES OF HEATING SHOULD BE ENOUGH
TO GET STORMS GOING AGAIN. MODEL SOUNDINGS WITH 75/60 AT DENVER GAVE
CAPE AROUND 1000 J/KG AND NO CIN. WIND PROFILE IS NOT WELL
ORGANIZED...BUT ON THE LARGE SCALE ANYWAY A BIT BETTER THAN THE LAST
FEW DAYS WITH LIGHT E/NE SURFACE WINDS AND A TENDENCY TOWARD LIGHT
SW WINDS ALOFT. MODEL SOUNDINGS HAVE CELL MOTIONS NNW ALONG THE
FOOTHILLS AT MIDDAY...OTHERWISE TOWARD THE NE AT ABOUT 5 KT. ONE
CHANGE THE HIGHER DEW POINTS BRING IS A MUCH BETTER INVOLVEMENT OF
THE WARM RAIN PROCESSES WITH A DEEP CLOUD LAYER BELOW THE FREEZING
LEVEL TODAY...A MORE TROPICAL TYPE ENVIRONMENT THAN WE NORMALLY
HAVE. WE SAW EVIDENCE OF THIS WITH LAST NIGHTS FOOTHILLS CONVECTION
GENERATING 1 INCH IN 30 MINUTES OUT OF FAIRLY SHALLOW PRECIPITATION
CORES.

EXPECT CONVECTION TO DEVELOP OVER THE MOUNTAINS/FOOTHILLS THIS
MORNING AND IN ANY SUNNY AREAS BY MID AFTERNOON...THOUGH MAIN THREAT
TOWARD THE EASTERN BORDER IS PROBABLY THIS EVENING AS MOISTURE
CONTINUES TO POUR IN. COULD BE EARLIER START ON THE SOUTH EDGE OF
THE CLOUD BAND TOO...LINCOLN COUNTY...THAT COULD GENERATE OUTFLOWS
INTO THE CLOUDIER AREAS.

WITH SOME THREAT ALREADY THIS MORNING...I WILL GO AHEAD AND ISSUE A
FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR FOOTHILLS/SOUTH PARK EASTWARD ACROSS THE
PLAINS STARTING AT 10 AM. MAIN THREAT PROGRESSES FROM WEST TO EAST
WITH TIME BUT SOME THREAT ON THE PLAINS NOT LONG AFTER THE SUN COMES
OUT...WHENEVER THAT WILL BE.

.LONG TERM...MODELS HAVE THE UPPER HIGH CENTERED OVER THE GREAT
BASIN ON SATURDAY.  BY SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT THE UPPER
RIDGE STRETCHES BACK NORTHEASTWARD INTO THE CANADIAN PRAIRIE
PROVINCES.  THE FLOW FOR THE FORECAST AREA IS WEAK ZONAL SATURDAY
THROUGH SUNDAY.  BY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY IT BECOMES MORE
NORTHERLY.  THE QG VERTICAL VELOCITY FIELDS SHOW LITTLE OF ANY
VERTICAL MOTION THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.  FOR MOISTURE...BOTH MODELS
CONTINUE SHOWING SATURDAY VERY WET.  IT DRIES OUT SOMEWHAT SATURDAY
OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY THE WESTERN FORECAST AREA.  SUNDAY IS
CONSIDERABLY DRIER BUT THERE WILL STILL BE SOME AROUND.  BOUNDARY
LAYER DEW POINTS FOR THE LOWLANDS ARE PROGGED TO BE IN THE MID 50S
TO LOWER 60S F SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT.  50S F ARE PROGGED ON
SUNDAY.  THE PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES ARE OVER ONE INCH SATURDAY
AND SATURDAY EVENING.  SUNDAYS VALUES DRY OUT TO AROUND
THREE-QUARTERS OF AN INCH.  ON SATURDAY...THE THETA-E AXIS IS OVER
CENTRAL COLORADO AND THE SOUTHERN FORECAST AREA AS WELL.  BY SUNDAY
ITS MAINLY OVER SOUTHWESTERN COLORADO NOSING INTO PARK COUNTY.
ITS STILL PRETTY WARM IN THE MID LEVELS ON THE FORECAST SOUNDINGS
AND LAPSE RATE FIELDS.  THE MID LEVEL CAP IS STILL SOMEWHAT AROUND
THROUGH THE PERIOD.  ALTHOUGH ITS A TAD COOLER AT 500 MB LATE DAY
SUNDAY.  LOOKING A CAPE VALUES...SATURDAYS HAS THE BEST OVER THE
SOUTHERN FORECAST AREA AND THE FOOTHILLS AND IMMEDIATE PLAINS.
THERE IS NONE OVER THE NORTHEAST CORNER.  SUNDAYS HAS DECENT CAPE
VALUES MAINLY OVER THE SOUTHERN FORECAST AREA.   THE QPF FIELDS
DEFINITELY FAVOR SATURDAY CONCERNING MEASURABLE RAINFALL.  SUNDAY
IS PRETTY DRY.   WILL MAKE MINOR POPS ARGUMENTS THIS UPDATE.  FOR
TEMPERATURES...SATURDAY WARMS 1-3 C OVER FRIDAY FOR HIGHS.  SUNDAY
WARMS 1-3 C AGAIN.  WILL LEAVE THE LATER DAYS...MONDAY THROUGH
THURSDAY AS IS.

.AVIATION...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TODAY
WITH HEAVY RAIN PRODUCING MVFR CEILINGS/VISIBILITIES POSSIBLE NEAR
THE STORMS. THE MAIN THREAT OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS NEAR DIA WILL BE
FROM MID AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING.

FLASH FLOOD WATCH THROUGH THIS EVENING FOR FOOTHILLS AND
PALMER DIVIDE

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHEAST AND NORTH CENTRAL
COLORADO.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS THIS
AFTERNOON...CONTINUING INTO THE EVENING HOURS. ACROSS THE PLAINS...
THE ONGOING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EAST OF A BRIGGSDALE TO KIOWA
LINE WILL SLOWLY MOVE EAST. FURTHER STORM DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE
REMAINDER OF THE PLAINS MAY BE DELAYED UNTIL MID AFTERNOON. THERE IS
A THREAT OF HEAVY RAIN AND POSSIBLE FLOODING WITH THE STORMS...
ESPECIALLY ALONG THE FOOTHILLS WHERE THE STORMS WILL BE SLOW MOVING
OR NEARLY STATIONARY. A FEW OF THE STORMS COULD PRODUCE 3 INCHES OF
RAINFALL OVER A FEW HOURS. SMALL HAIL IS ALSO POSSIBLE WITH SOME OF
THE  STORMS. THE HAYMAN BURN AREA OF DOUGLAS AND JEFFERSON COUNTIES
AND THE OVERLAND BURN AREA OF BOULDER COUNTY WILL BE THE MOST
SUSCEPTIBLE TO FLASH FLOODING...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR ROCK AND MUD
SLIDES.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

THERE WILL A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF THE
FORECAST AREA AREAS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.  THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS THROUGH
THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK WITH ONLY A SLIGHT CHANCE OF STORMS OVER THE
PLAINS.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL NOT BE NEEDED TODAY OR TONIGHT. HOWEVER...
