AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER CO
250 PM MDT TUE MAY 22 2007

.SHORT TERM...UPPER LOW ACROSS NW WY WITH STRONG 100KT JET STEAK
NOSING INTO NERN CO THIS AFTN. THIS HAS ALLOWED QUITE A BIT OF
ASCENT ALOFT AS SHOWERS HAVE EXPANDED ACROSS MUCH OF NERN CO THIS
AFTN. STORMS GENERALLY UNDER SEVERE LIMITS WITH HVY RAINERS AND
SMALL HAIL WITH LACK OF STRONG INSTABILITY AND COOL LOW LVLS.
SHOWERS WILL GRADUALLY END FROM WEST TO EAST THIS EVENING AS JET
CORE SLIDES ACROSS THE AREA AND BEST LIFT MOVES INTO THE CENTRAL
PLAINS. WILL NEED TO MAKE SOME CHANGES FOR THE WEDNESDAY FCST AS
WATER VAPOR SHOWS STRONG SECONDARY WAVE MOVING INTO NRN NV THIS
AFTN. THIS WAVE IS PROGGED TO LIFT OUT ACROSS NERN CO WED AFTN. BOTH
GFS/NAM SHOWING GOOD QPF MOVING ACROSS THE AREA. WILL BOOST POPS TO
HIGH SCATTERED FOR WED AFTN.

.LONG TERM...RATHER SIGNIFICANT SHORT WAVE MOVING THROUGH THE MAIN
TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH EASTWARD ACROSS THE PLAINS TOMORROW
EVENING.  DEPENDING ON TIMING OF THIS FEATURE...COULD SEE FAIRLY
WIDESPREAD PRECIP IN THE EVENING ESPECIALLY OVER THE EASTERN PLAINS
AND PALMER DIVIDE.  AS A RESULT...WILL INCREASE POPS FOR POINTS
ROUGHLY FROM DENVER SOUTH AND EAST DURING THE EVENING HOURS.
TEMPERATURES GET COLD ENOUGH IN THIS LATE SEASON TROUGH FOR SOME
SNOW POSSIBLY AS LOW 6500 FEET OVER THE PALMER DIVIDE.

SIGNIFICANTLY DRIER AND MORE STABLE AIR WILL WORK INTO THE REGION
THURSDAY...AND WE MAY BE HARD PRESSED EVEN TO SPARK AN ISOLATED
AFTERNOON STORM WITH WARMING ALOFT AND LACK OF AN APPRECIABLE LOW
LEVEL THETA-E RIDGE.

BY FRIDAY...MOISTURE AND LOW LEVEL THETA-E INCREASES ONCE AGAIN.  IN
ADDITION...A WEAK WAVE IS PROGGED TO MOVED ACROSS THE NORTHERN
ROCKIES WITH A BIT OF WEAK LIFT.  THIS SHOULD HELP PROMOTE BETTER
STORM COVERAGE FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

SATURDAY COULD SEE SOME COOLING BEHIND THE NORTHERN U.S. SHORT
WAVE...BUT THE REST OF THE MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND LOOKS WARMER AND A
RETURN TO MORE SUMMERLIKE WEATHER WITH HIGHS AROUND 80F ON THE
PLAINS BY MONDAY.  THE TYPICAL ISOLATED AFTERNOON/EVENING STORMS
ALSO EXPECTED.

&&

.AVIATION...MVFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THRU EARLY THIS EVENING
