AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
305 PM MDT FRI APR 25 2008

.SHORT TERM...

...COLD FRONT PASSAGE SATURDAY...

.CURRENTLY...MOSTLY CLEAR OVER THE FORECAST AREA...WITH ONLY CLOUDY
AREA OVER THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS OF LAKE COUNTY. WEAK SURGE ON THE
PLAINS HAS MOVED EASTWARD WITH LOWER DEWPOINTS AND GUSTIER WEST
WINDS EXTENDING FURTHER EAST.  SOME LOCATIONS HAD WINDS AND
HUMIDITIES MEET RED FLAG CRITERIA FOR PERIODS DURING THE DAY.
MESONET SITES ALONG WITH ASOS/AWOS SITES SHOW THE WINDS ARE PATCHY
AND FAIRLY VARIABLE.  MOST PERSISTENT GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS WERE IN
THE KPUB AREA AND SOUTHERN EL PASO COUNTY...WHICH IS MORE PRONE TO
WESTERLY FLOW THROUGH THE ARKANSAS RIVER VALLEY TO THE WEST.  IN THE
LAST COUPLE OF HOURS...WINDS HAVE ALSO STRENGTHENED IN THE
WALSENBURG AREA

.TONIGHT...WINDS ON THE PLAINS SHOULD WEAK BY SUNSET IN MOST AREAS.
WINDS NEAR THE GAPS SHOULD ALSO DECREASE BY SUNSET...WITH THE LEE
TROUGH WEAKENING ON THE PLAINS.  SATELLITE SUGGESTS SOME CLOUDS TO
THE NORTHWEST...AND AS THIS MOISTURE MOVES INTO THE CENTRAL
MOUNTAINS SOME SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS WILL DEVELOP OVERNIGHT.

.SATURDAY...STRONG TROUGH WILL PASS THROUGH THE REGION DURING THE
DAY WITH A SHARP COLD FRONT ON THE PLAINS.  18Z NAM CONTINUES THE
TREND OF THE OTHER MODELS WITH COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE SOMETIME DURING
THE MORNING.  IN THE TAFS AND GRIDS HAVE FRONTAL PASSAGE AROUND 15Z
AT KCOS AND KPUB WITH GUSTY NORTH WINDS CONTINUING INTO THE
AFTERNOON.  SOME CHILLY AIR ALOFT BEHIND THE FRONT WITH LATEST NAM
HAVING 700MB TEMPERATURES OF -4 TO -10C OVER THE PLAINS BY 00Z.
WEST OF THE SANGRES...700MB TEMPERATURES STAY SLIGHTLY WARMER AS THE
CORE OF THE COLD AIR ALOFT STAYS TO THE NORTH AND EAST.  THE BEST
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND COOLING ALOFT WILL BE OVER EL PASO COUNTY AND
INCREASED POPS TO SCATTERED...WHICH MATCHES WELL WITH WFO BOU.  BY
LATER IN THE AFTERNOON...THE WINDS AT 700MB MAY BECOME NORTHEAST
LONG ENOUGH FOR SOME SHOWERS OVER THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS.  TRIMMED
BACK POPS SOME OVER THESE REGIONS AS UPSLOPE IS BRIEF AND MODEL
SOUNDINGS DO NOT SUGGEST A GOOD CHANCE FOR CONVECTION.   REMOVED
POPS FROM THE SAN JUANS DURING THE AFTERNOON...AS BEST MIDDLE LEVEL
MOISTURE STAYS WELL TO THE NORTH. --PGW--

.LONG TERM...
(SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT FRIDAY)

LEFT THE LOW POPS IN PLACE FOR SATURDAY EVENING OVER MAINLY THE
EASTERN MOUNTAINS...AS WEAK UPSLOPE COULD STILL GENERATE A FEW
LIGHT RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS THROUGH SUNSET. APPEARS ANY PRECIP WILL
FADE AWAY RATHER QUICKLY DURING THE NIGHT AS FLOW BECOMES LIGHT
NORTHWEST...SO REMOVED POPS FROM THE ENTIRE AREA FROM 06Z ONWARD.
WITH SKIES CLEARING...SUSPECT MOST OF THE PLAINS WILL SEE A
RATHER HARD FREEZE BY SUNDAY MORNING...WITH LOWS DOWN IN THE 20S.
A COUPLE VERY NICE DAYS IN STORE FOR SUNDAY/MONDAY...WITH LIGHT
WINDS AS UPPER RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE ROCKIES. SLIGHTLY BELOW
AVERAGE TEMPS SUNDAY SHOULD WARM SUBSTANTIALLY MONDAY AS 700 MB
THERMAL RIDGE NOSES NORTH ACROSS THE STATE. UPPER RIDGE AXIS
MOVES EAST OF THE AREA TUESDAY AS STRONG UPPER LOW MOVES ONSHORE
OVER THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. GIVEN SURFACE PRESSURE FALLS OVER THE
PLAINS TUESDAY AFTERNOON...EXPECT WINDS TO INCREASE LATE IN THE
DAY...AND COULD SEE AT LEAST SOME SPOTTY CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER
CONDITIONS AS DEWPOINTS REMAIN LOW AND 700 MB TEMPS SOAR ABOVE
10C. WINDY AND WARM AGAIN WEDNESDAY...WITH PERHAPS SOME MOISTURE
REACHING THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE LATE IN THE DAY. CRITICAL FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL COVER MOST OF THE AREA WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
AND EVENING...AS BOTH ECMWF AND GFS KEEP DRYLINE EAST OF THE
KANSAS BORDER.

12Z RUNS OF THE GFS AND ECMWF SHOWING ROUGHLY SIMILAR SOLUTIONS
FOR THURSDAY/FRIDAY...UNSURE IF THIS IS A TREND OR JUST
COINCIDENCE. EC SOLUTION JUST FAR ENOUGH SOUTH THAT DEFORMATION
PRECIP REACHES THE PLAINS LATE THURSDAY/THURSDAY NIGHT...WHILE GFS
IS SLIGHTLY MORE NORTH...KEEPING ALL OF SOUTHERN COLORADO UNDER
THE DRY SLOT. ADDED SOME POPS TO THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE ZONES FROM
WED NIGHT INTO THU NIGHT...WITH LOW POPS ALONG THE NORTHERN EDGE
OF THE CWA FROM THU INTO EARLY FRIDAY. WHILE PRECIP CHANCES WITH
THE SYSTEM STILL LOOK UNCERTAIN...CHANCES FOR STRONG WINDS LOOK
GOOD...AND WILL CONTINUE TO RAMP UP WIND SPEEDS FOR THU INTO
EARLY FRIDAY.

&&

AVIATION...WINDS AT TAF SITES WILL DECREASE BY SUNSET.  ON
SATURDAY...COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE AT KCOS AND KPUB WILL BE AROUND MID
MORNING...WITH GUSTY NORTH WINDS CONTINUING INTO THE AFTERNOON.  ANY
SHOWERS AT KCOS AND KPUB SHOULD NOT DECREASE CONDITIONS BELOW VFR.
