AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER CO
315 AM MDT WED JUN 04 2008

.SHORT TERM...JUST SOME LIGHT SHOWER ACTIVITY REMAINS ACROSS OUR NRN
BORDER AREAS IN ADVANCE OF DIGGING TROF ACROSS THE GREAT BASIN.
SATELLITE/OBS INDICATE SOME FOG/STRATUS HAVE ALSO DEVELOPED OVER THE
HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE FOOTHILLS AND PALMER DIVIDE. WEAK UPSLOPE HAS
DEVELOPED ACROSS THE FRONT RANGE WITH BROAD SFC LOW PRESSURE ACROSS
SERN CO.  MEANWHILE DEEPENING UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL DROP INTO THE 4
CORNERS REGION BY LATER TNT WITH INCREASING ASCENT ACROSS THE ENTIRE
AREA TNT. MOS GUIDANCE FROM BOTH NAM/GFS SHOWING LIKELY POPS OVER
THE ENTIRE AREA LATER TNT AND CURRENT GRIDS REFECT THIS. WITH
INCREASING ASCENT AND MSTR...THERE IS A THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS ON
THE EASTERN PLAINS. INCREASING SERLY LOW LVL FLOW AND STRONG MID LVL
SW-W FLOW 30-40KT WILL LEAD TO INCREASING SHEAR PROFILE FOR SEVERE
STORMS AND EVEN POSSIBLE ISOLD TORNADIC ACTIVITY AS WELL. LARGE HAIL
ALSO POSSIBLE WITH CAPE VALUES IN EXCESS OF 1500J/KG OVER THE PLAINS
AND UP TO 1000J/KG CLOSER TO THE HILLS. BEST CHANCES FOR SEVERE
STORMS APPEAR TO BE EAST OF THE URBAN CORRIDOR WITH BEST SHEAR
PROFILE AND STRONGEST SERLY LOW LVL FLOW. MSTR DEPICTIONS AND QPF
STILL VARY QUITE A BIT BETWEEN THE MODELS BUT GIVEN THE MODEST
ASCENT...LIKELY POPS APPEAR WARRANTED. ONLY EXPECTING LIGHT SNOW
ACCUM IN THE MTNS UNTIL OROGRAPHIC FLOW IMPROVES ON THURSDAY.

.LONG TERM...BY THURSDAY N-CNTRL AND NERN COLORADO SHOULD ALREADY BE
IN THE GRIPS OF AN UNSEASONABLY COOL AND MOIST AIRMASS ASSOCIATED
WITH A UNUSUALLY DEEP VERTICALLY TILTED TROUGH. LAST SEVERAL MODEL
RUNS HAVE BEEN PLEASANTLY CONSISTENT WITH BRINGING THIS NEARLY
BAROTROPIC LOOKING SYSTEM ACROSS COLORADO ON THURSDAY. THIS
EVENING/S NAM RUN IS MORE SOUTHERLY WITH THE 500MB LOW COMPARED TO
THE 12Z NAM...BUT ITS FORWARD PROGRESS IS ON PAR WITH PREVIOUS RUNS.
POSITION OF THE UPR LOW AS OF 12Z/THU ACCORDING TO THE NAM AND GFS
NOT TOO MUCH DIFFERENT...PRETTY MUCH IN THE FOUR CORNERS AREA. BOTH
BOTH MODELS STILL SHOW A POWERFUL JET ROUNDING THE BOTTOM OF THE
TROUGH AND COMING UP INTO SERN COLORADO THU MORNING.  BENEATH THE
LEFT EXIT QUAD OF THIS +120KT JET MODELS ALSO INDICATE STG LOW-LEVEL
CYCLOGENESIS ACROSS SERN COLORADO/WRN KANSAS. WHILE THE FLOW ALOFT
CONTINUES SWLY WITH THE 700-400MB TROUGH AXIS STILL OVER WRN
COLORADO THU MORNING...LOW-LEVEL NELY UPSLOPE FLOW ON THE PLAINS
TRANSITIONS TO MORE OF A NLY COMPONENT. HOWEVER QG VERTICAL VELOCITY
FIELDS INDICATE STRONG DEEP LAYER ASCENT OVER THE ENTIRE CWFA
THURSDAY MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON IN THE NORTHEAST SIDE OF THE
UPPER LOW. FCSTD QPF EXTENSIVE DURING MUCH OF THE DAY WITH VALUES
RANGING FROM A FEW HUNDREDTHS TO UPWARDS OF A INCH ALONG THE PALMER
DVD AS PER THE NAM AND OUT ACRS WELD...MORGAN...LOGAN AND WASHINGTON
CTYS AS PER THE GFS. PROBABLY THE MOST NOTABLE CHANGE IN WEATHER
WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL BE THE SIGNIFICANT DROP IN TEMPERATURES.
LATEST MOS TEMPERATURE GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO PAINT A VERY CHILLY DAY
ON THURSDAY...ESPLY FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. AVERAGE HIGH TEMPERATURE
FOR DENVER ON THE 5TH OF JUNE IS 79. MOS IS STILL INDICATING A MAX
TEMP IN TH MID TO UPR 50S...DEPENDING ON WHICH MODEL GUIDANCE YOU
USE. MOS GUIDANCE HAS ALSO CONTINUED TO RAISE 6- AND 12-HR
PRECIPITATION PROBABILITIES FOR THURSDAY. ALREADY HAVE LIKELY
CHANCES FOR THE PLAINS...BUT WILL RAISE POPS ANOTHER 10 PCT ESPLY
DURING THE LATE MORNING AND AFTERNOON HOURS WITH THE BEST FORCING
OVER THE AREA. IN THE HIGH COUNTRY...WILL BUMP UP LIKELY POPS TO
CATEGORICAL PARTICULARLY IN AREAS EAST OF THE CONT DIVIDE. STILL
ANTICIPATING SOME HIGH COUNTRY SNOWFALL...BUT SNOW LEVELS MAY NOT BE
AS LOW AS EARLIER THOUGHT...NOW CLOSER TO 10K OR 10.5K FEET DURING
THE DAYLIGHT HOURS.

BY THURSDAY EVENING...TROUGH ENERGY EXPECTED TO BE ON THE WAY OUT
ALTHOUGH THE NAM LACKS OF ITS MOISTURE AND LIGHT BACK OVER THE ERN
PLAINS OF COLORADO. THAT SAID...THE DOWNWARD TREND IN POPS NOW IN
THE FCST LOOKS REASONABLE. SHOULD SKIES CLEAR SOONER THAN EXPECTED
LOW TEMPS BY FRI MORNING MAY DIP INTO THE 30S AT A FEW SPOTS ON THE
PLAINS. WHILE THE MTN VALLEYS SHOULD EXPERIENCE A HARD FREEZE. ON
FRIDAY FLOW ALOFT BECOMES ZONAL AND TEMPERATURES ALOFT SHOOT UP. ALL
AND WITH CLEARING SKIES SHOULD SEE TEMPS RETURN TO NORMAL.

OVER THE WEEKEND...THIS WARMING TREND SHOULD CONTINUE WITH TEMPS
BOTH DAYS AS MUCH AS 6-12F ABOVE AVERAGE FOR THE DATE. ALTHOUGH
MODELS SHOW A WEAK FRONTAL BNDRY BACKING INTO THE NERN CORNER OF THE
STATE LATE ON SUNDAY.  BEHIND THIS SURGE...SLIGHTLY COOLER
AIR...HIGHER DEWPTS AND LOW-LEVEL NELY FLOW MAY BE SUFFICIENT TO
FUEL A FEW BASED STORMS. TOO EARLY TO IDENTIFY A THREAT FOR SEVERE
WX...HOWEVER FCST 0-3KM CAPE VALUES DO NOT LOOK NOT ALL THAT GREAT
AT THIS TIME.

&&

.AVIATION...VARYING AMOUNTS OF MVFR/IFR STATUS/FOG OVER LOCAL
AIRPORTS ESP APA/BJC. IMPROVING CONDITIONS AFTER 16Z. TSRA
DEVELOPING AFT 20Z WITH STRONG/SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE UNTIL EARLY
EVENING THEN WIDESPREAD STRATIFORM RAIN DEVELOPING LATER TNT.

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

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA THIS
AFTERNOON...CONTINUING INTO THE EVENING HOURS. SOME STORMS MAY
BECOME SEVERE ACROSS THE PLAINS OF EASTERN COLORADO...WITH THE
STRONGEST STORMS GENERALLY EAST OF THE URBAN CORRIDOR. LARGE HAIL
AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN THREATS. ISOLATED TORNADOES ARE
ALSO POSSIBLE AS THE SHEAR INCREASES DURING THE AFTERNOON.

ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS...SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS CAN
BE EXPECTED WITH SOME OF THE STORMS. TEMPERATURES WILL BECOME COLD
ENOUGH LATER TONIGHT FOR SOME SNOWFALL...WITH A COUPLE OF INCHES
POSSIBLE. THE INCREASED STORM ACTIVITY IS DUE TO A STRONG STORM
SYSTEM DEVELOPING OVER THE GREAT BASIN TODAY. THIS SYSTEM WILL MOVE
INTO THE FOUR CORNERS REGION BY EARLY THURSDAY MORNING.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY

A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BRING UNSEASONABLY COOL TEMPERATURES AND
WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION TO THE OUTLOOK AREA ON THURSDAY. IT WILL BE
COLD ENOUGH IN THE HIGH COUNTRY FOR SOME LIGHT SNOW...MAINLY ABOVE
10 THOUSAND FEET BY EARLY THURSDAY MORNING.

DRIER AND MUCH WARMER CONDITIONS WILL OCCUR BY THE WEEKEND AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST.  THESE CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.
