AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
413 AM MDT MON OCT 6 2008

.SHORT TERM...
(TODAY AND TONIGHT)

UPPER TROF EJECTING INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS IS STILL PROGGED TO
CLOSE OFF ACROSS THE PANHANDLES AND WRN KS LATER THIS MORNING.  SFC
LOW CENTER IS POSITIONED ACROSS NE NM WITH COLD FRONT HAVING CLEARED
ALL BUT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE STATE SO FAR.  BAND OF WRAP
AROUND PCPN HAS SPREAD SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS
OVERNIGHT...AND NAM12 SHOWS THIS AXIS SHIFTING SOUTH AND EASTWARD
THROUGH THE MORNING AS THE UPPER LOW PULLS AWAY FROM THE REGION.  THUS
WILL KEEP SOME LIKELY POPS MAINLY EAST OF KLHX THROUGH THE
MORNING...WITH PCPN ENDING FOR MOST OF THE AREA BY AFTN AS DRIER AIR
MOVES IN.  STILL QUITE A BIT OF OROGRAPHIC CLOUDINESS PINNED UP
ALONG THE NW FACING SLOPES OF THE CONTDVD IN LATEST FOG PRODUCTS.
SOME OF THE MTN OBS SITES REPORTING LIGHT SNOW...BUT CHECK OF MYP
WEB CAM SO FAR APPEARS TO BE MORE OF A VIS RESTRICTION RATHER THAN
FALLING SNOW.  WILL HANG ON TO SOME ISOLATED POPS ALONG THE NW
FACING SLOPES OF THE CENTRAL MTS THIS MORNING.  EXPECT GUSTY NORTH
WINDS THROUGH THE MORNING ACROSS THE PLAINS...WITH WINDS DIMINISHING
THIS AFTERNOON AS SFC PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES.  COOLER DAY FOR
MOST AREAS TODAY...ESP ACROSS THE EAST. WITH MORE SUNSHINE AND MID
LVL WAA MOVING IN FROM THE WEST...SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL MTS MAY END
UP BEING A COUPLE DEGREES WARMER THAN YESTERDAY.

FOR TONIGHT...COOL AIR MASS OVER THE AREA IN WAKE OF TODAYS
SYSTEM...AND WITH CLEAR SKIES...LIGHT WINDS...AND DEW POINTS FALLING
INTO THE UPPER 20S AND LOWER 30S...SET UP CERTAINLY SEEMS FAVORABLE
FOR FROST DEVELOPMENT.  DRIEST AIRMASS (AND AREA WITH BEST POTENTIAL
FOR FROST) APPEARS TO BE ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR.  FARTHER EAST GFS
AND NAM KEEP SFC DEW POINTS IN THE UPPER 30S ALONG THE EASTERN
BORDER.  SFC PRES GRADIENT PRETTY WEAK...SO DONT THINK THAT
DRAINAGE FLOW WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO OFFSET DEVELOPMENT OF STRONG
SURFACE INVERSIONS.  IN FACT...WINDS THROUGH THE SFC TO H7 LAYER ARE
AROUND 5 KTS OR LESS IN BOTH THE NAM AND GFS.  THUS THINK TEMPS
COULD DIP TO NEAR OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE FREEZING ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR
LATE TONIGHT THROUGH TOMORROW...AND WILL ISSUE A FROST ADVISORY FOR
THIS REGION.  WITHIN THIS AREA...THE MOST LIKELY SPOTS TO SEE FROST
WILL BE PALMER DIVIDE AND IN THE PUEBLO FROST POCKET ALONG THE
ARKANSAS RIVER VALLEY. ITS POSSIBLE THAT THE FROST ADVISORY MAY NEED
TO BE EXPANDED EASTWARD A BIT...BUT GIVEN THE POSSIBILITY THAT DEW
POINTS MAY STAY TOO HIGH OUT EAST...WILL LEAVE THIS FOR THE NEXT
SHIFT TO ASSESS.  INTERIOR MTN VALLEYS WILL ALSO EXPERIENCE A COLD
NIGHT...HOWEVER THE SAN LUIS VALLEY HAS ALREADY EXPERIENCED A HARD
FREEZE EARLIER THIS SEASON...AND WE ARE BEYOND THE TYPICAL END OF
THE GROWING SEASON (OCT 1ST) FOR THAT REGION...SO NO HIGHLIGHT
SHOULD BE NECESSARY.  -KT

.LONG TERM...
(TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)

...WARM DAYS AND COOL NIGHTS TUE-THU...
...UNSETTLED WEATHER POSSIBLE FRI-SUN...

TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT SHOULD DOMINATE
THE WEATHER PATTERN. RELATIVELY WARM DAYS AND COOLS NIGHTS SHOULD
BE IN THE OFFING WITH THE FORECAST CHALLENGE BEING AN EXERCISE IN
TEMPERATURE FORECASTING ACROSS COMPLEX TERRAIN. POTENTIAL FOR
SOME BREEZY CONDITIONS ACROSS THE HIGH TERRAIN WEDNESDAY AND
THURSDAY...MAINLY AFTERNOON. 12KM NAM-WRF SUGGESTS A WEAK COLD
FRONT TO MOVE THROUGH EASTERN CO LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY
MORNING WITH LITTLE IMPACTS. 00Z/06 GFS IS NOW MUCH FASTER
BRINGING IN THE LEAD TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED WEATHER FOR LATE
THURSDAY...SOMEWHAT SIMILAR TO SOME OF THE OLD ECMWF RUNS. THE
00Z/06 ECMWF RUN NO LONGER PORTRAYS THIS SCENARIO. UNCERTAINTY
REMAINS...SO WILL MAINTAIN THE THURSDAY FORECAST.

FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...MUCH MORE FORECAST UNCERTAINTY FOR THESE
FORECAST PERIODS. MEDIUM RANGE MODELS SUGGEST SOMETHING IS
COMING THROUGH THE CENTRAL ROCKY MOUNTAINS...BUT AS USUAL THE
DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS. GFS AND ECMWF ARE NOW AT ODDS WITH THE
TIMING...STRENGTH...AND EVOLUTION OF THE WEATHER SYSTEM. GFS
CONTINUES TO SUPPORT A MORE PROGRESSIVE OPEN WAVE SYSTEM WHILE
THE ECMWF HAS SWITCHED BACK TO THE MAMMOTH LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
OVER THE GREAT BASIN. IF THE GFS IS CORRECT THEN THERE WOULD BE A
BETTER CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION AND MUCH COLDER TEMPERATURES. WITH
700MB TEMPERATURES AROUND -8C TO -12C...HIGH TEMPERATURES ACROSS
SOUTHEASTERN CO COULD VERY WELL ONLY BE IN THE 40S. NOW...IF THE
00Z/06 ECMWF IS MORE CORRECT...THEN THE ASSOCIATED UPPER LEVEL JET
STREAK IS DIRECTLY OVER CO...WHICH DOESNT BODE WELL FOR PRECIPITATION.
THE WEATHER SYSTEMS DRY SLOT(700-300MB RH AROUND 15%) WILL BE
ACROSS MUCH OF CO LATE SAT-SUN AND 700MB TEMPERATURES WILL BE
WARMER THAN WHAT THE GFS PORTRAYS. OBVIOUSLY...WILL MAINTAIN THE
CURRENT DETERMINISTIC FORECAST GIVEN THE MANY DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS
THAT COULD OCCUR IN THESE FORECAST PERIODS. METZE

&&

.AVIATION...

GUSTY NORTH WINDS EXPECTED ACROSS THE KCOS AND KPUB TAF SITES THIS
MORNING. MID DECK OF VFR CIGS ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR SHOULD
DISSIPATE BY AFTERNOON. FARTHER EAST...SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE MORNING PRODUCING MVFR
TO LOCAL IFR CIGS...ALONG WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. THESE WILL SHIFT
SOUTH AND EAST OF THE AREA BY AFTN.  IFR TO LIFR MTN OBSCURATIONS
WILL LINGER ALONG THE NW FACING SLOPES OF THE CONTDVD THROUGH THE
MORNING WITH CLEARING SKIES IN THE AFTERNOON.  CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT
DIURNALLY DRIVEN WINDS EXPECTED TONIGHT.  -KT
