AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
350 AM MDT MON APR 21 2008

.SHORT TERM...
(TODAY AND TONIGHT)

...FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS...ALSO AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM POSSIBLE
LATER TODAY CENTRAL MOUNTAINS TO PALMER DIVIDE...

MAIN CONCERN TODAY IS CONTINUED HIGH FIRE DANGER ACROSS THE SAN LUIS
VALLEY AND SOUTHEAST MOUNTAINS BELOW 8000 FEET.  ONCE AGAIN
TODAY...A COMBINATION OF GUSTY WINDS...LOW HUMIDITIES AND DRY FUELS
WILL RESULT IN CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS.  THE FIRE WEATHER
WATCH THAT WAS IN EFFECT FOR THE SAN LUIS VALLEY AND SOUTHEAST
MOUNTAINS WILL BE UPGRADED TO A RED FLAG WARNING...IN EFFECT FROM
11AM TO 9PM MDT.

ELSEWHERE...CONDITIONS OVER THE PLAINS ADJACENT TO THE MOUNTAINS...
ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR...COULD GET CLOSE TO CRITERIA BY LATE
AFTERNOON...BUT WILL PROBABLY COME UP SHORT.  A WEAK SURFACE FRONT
IS CURRENTLY PUSHING UP AGAINST THE MOUNTAINS.  BEHIND THE
FRONT...THE AIRMASS IS COOLER AND SLIGHTLY MORE MOIST THAN THE AIR
AHEAD OF IT.  ALSO...WINDS ARE GENERALLY LIGHTER.  THIS FRONT IS
FORECAST TO BACK UP AGAINST THE MOUNTAINS THROUGH MOST OF THE
DAY...POSSIBLY RETREATING A LITTLE LATE IN THE DAY...RIGHT ALONG THE
MOUNTAINS.  THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE OVER THE PLAINS SOUTH OF
PUEBLO...ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR FROM WALSENBURG TO TRINIDAD.  THIS
AREA COULD SEE INCREASING WINDS AND DROPPING HUMIDITIES LATE IN THE
DAY.  HOWEVER...AT THIS POINT...I THINK IT WILL COME UP SHORT OF
CRITERIA BOTH IN TERMS OF METEOROLOGICAL PARAMETERS AND LONGEVITY.
SO NO WARNING FOR THIS AREA AT THIS TIME.

ANOTHER AREA OF CONCERN IS EL PASO COUNTY.  WHILE THIS AREA LOOKS
LIKE IT WILL SEE HUMIDITIES REMAIN ABOVE CRITERIA FOR MOST OF THE
DAY...LATE IN THE DAY IT COULD COME CLOSE.  SOME OF THE MOST
PESSIMISTIC GUIDANCE IS HINTING AT 15% RELATIVE HUMIDITY BY LATE IN
THE AFTERNOON...WHICH WOULD PUT IT RIGHT AT THE THRESHOLD FOR A
WARNING.  ALSO...THE WINDS WILL BE PRETTY BRISK ACROSS EL PASO
COUNTY...POSSIBLY GUSTING OVER 25 MPH AT TIMES.  HOWEVER...ONCE
AGAIN...I THINK WELL STAY BELOW CRITERIA IN TERMS OF BOTH WEATHER
PARAMETERS AND LONGEVITY.  SO...WHILE IT WILL BE CLOSE TO HITTING
CRITICAL CRITERIA...THERE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR A WARNING.

ELSEWHERE ACROSS THE PLAINS...HIGHER HUMIDITIES AND LIGHTER WINDS
SHOULD BRING A GENERAL REPRIEVE IN THE FIRE WEATHER THREAT TODAY.
HOWEVER...FUELS ARE STILL VERY DRY SO CAUTION NEEDS TO CONTINUE.

ASIDE FROM THE FIRE WEATHER THREAT...THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR AN
ISOLATED AFTERNOON OR EVENING THUNDERSTORM...EXTENDING FROM THE
CENTRAL MOUNTAINS EASTWARD ACROSS TELLER AND NORTHERN EL PASO
COUNTIES...INCLUDING THE PALMER DIVIDE.  THE NAM12 CONTINUES TO
INDICATE A SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE THROUGH NORTHERN COLORADO DURING THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS...TRIGGERING SOME ISOLATED CONVECTION.
A CHECK OF LAPSE RATES AND LIS INDICATES PLENTY OF INSTABILITY TO
ALLOW CONVECTION.  PLUS...THE SURFACE BOUNDARY THAT IS MOVING
THROUGH THE EASTERN PLAINS THIS MORNING WILL BE BACKED UP AGAINST
THE MOUNTAINS AS THE WAVE MOVES ONTO THE PLAINS LATE IN THE DAY.
THE PALMER DIVIDE WILL BE THE MOST LIKELY AREA TO BREAK THE
CAP...GIVEN ITS HIGHER ELEVATION.  SO...CANT OUTRULE A
THUNDERSTORM OR TWO.  WALROD

.LONG TERM...
(TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)

...NEAR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS SAN LUIS VALLEY TUE...

...NEAR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS I-25 CORRIDOR/HIGH
VALLEYS...AND STRONG-SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FAR SOUTHEAST CO PLAINS
WED AFTERNOON/EVENING...

...ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN FOR FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS CONTINUES...

TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW IS FORECAST TO
PERSIST OVER THE CENTRAL ROCKIES. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE
PLAINS WILL KEEP THE LOW LEVEL SOUTHEAST-SOUTH FLOW ACROSS MUCH OF
EASTERN CO. ANY SURFACE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE WELL TO THE SOUTH
OF SOUTHEAST CO TUESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. THE COMBINATION OF
HEATING...MIXING...INSTABILITY....AND MODERATE SOUTHWEST FLOW COULD
LEAD TO CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ACROSS THE SAN LUIS VALLEY
TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE WIND WILL BE MARGINAL...SO
WILL HOLD OFF ISSUING ANY FIRE WEATHER HEADLINES FOR THE SAN LUIS
VALLEY. TUESDAYS HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE AROUND MONDAYS
PROJECTIONS. TUESDAY NIGHTS WEATHER PATTERN WILL BE INTERESTING.
OLD SURFACE BOUNDARY REMAINS ACROSS WEST CENTRAL TX INTO EASTERN
TX. WITH THE SURFACE-PBL SOUTHEAST FLOW...A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ADVECTS INTO EASTERN CO AND EASTWARD. 40-50KT
SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET DEVELOPS ACROSS WESTERN TX WITH LOW TO
MIDLEVEL WARM AIR ADVECTION DEVELOPING ACROSS MUCH OF
NM/CO/TX/OK/KS. THE RELATIVELY STRONGEST LIFT COULD BE ACROSS THE
TX PANHANDLE IN THE EXIT REGION OF THE LOW LEVEL JET. AMPLE
NIGHTTIME CAPE WILL BE AVAILABLE WITH 0-6KM MOST UNSTABLE CAPE
SHOWING 700-1K J/KG ACROSS TX/OK PANHANDLES AND ACROSS CENTRAL TX.
POTENTIAL FOR NOCTURNAL MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEM TO DEVELOP
OVER WESTERN TX INTO OK LATER TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY
MORNING...MOVING INTO KS. ALSO... AROUND 50 J/KG 0-6KM MOST
UNSTABLE CAPE WILL BE ACROSS EASTERN CO/WESTERN KS. MOST OF THE
AVAILABLE MOISTURE WILL BE IN THE SFC-PBL LAYER ACROSS EASTERN CO
WITH 700-300MB LAYER MUCH DRIER DURING THE NIGHT. POTENTIAL FOR
ADVECTION STRATUS/FOG TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE EASTERN CO PLAINS.
NOTICED THE GFS PRINTS OUT QPF WHILE THE NAM-WRF DOES NOT. THE GFS
IS LIKELY FOCUSING ON THE SATURATED LOW LEVELS WITH THE QPF
GENERATION.

WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT...THIS COULD BE THE MOST INTERESTING
AND CRITICAL WEATHER FOR A 24 HOUR PERIOD. RELATIVELY DEEP
SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW CONTINUES OVER THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS. A
SUBSTANTIAL SFC/PBL DRYLINE WILL BE ACROSS EASTERN CO WEDNESDAY
MORNING WITH STRATUS/FOG ON THE COOLER/MOIST SIDE OF THE DRYLINE.
WITH DAYTIME HEATING...MUCH DRIER AIR ALOFT ENTRAINING INTO THE
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE...THE DRYLINE SHOULD MOVE TOWARDS THE CO/KS
BORDER AS THE STRATUS/FOG ERODES. WHERE THE DRYLINE ENDS UP WILL
BE THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE. THE LOW LEVEL DRYLINE COULD SHIFT INTO
EXTREME WESTERN KS BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND THEN RETREAT
WEDNESDAY EVENING AS THE SURFACE/PBL BEGINS TO COOL/MOISTEN AND WINDS
BECOME MORE SOUTHEASTERLY. ALL KINEMATIC PARAMETERS SUGGESTS THE
POTENTIAL FOR STRONG-SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND JUST AHEAD OF
THE DRYLINE. MODEL DATA ARE SUGGESTING SURFACE DEW POINTS IN THE
50S ALONG THE DRYLINE. ASSUMING THE MODEL DATA ARE CLOSE...THE
SIGNIFICANT TORNADO PARAMETER(INSTABILITY/SHEAR/LCL HEIGHT)
INDICATING THE POTENTIAL FOR TORNADIC SUPERCELLS IF ALL ELEMENTS
BECOME JUXTAPOSED WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THERE WILL BE
SOME CONVECTIVE INHIBITION...BUT THE COMBINATION OF LOW LEVEL
CONVERGENCE AND A MIDLEVEL SHORTWAVE FEATURE COULD OVERCOME THE
LOW LEVEL INVERSION. THERE COULD BE THE POTENTIAL FOR LARGE HAIL
AND DAMAGING WINDS ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE FAR SOUTHEAST CO PLAINS
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. CURRENT INDICATIONS ARE FOR
KIOWA...BENT...PROWERS...EASTERN LAS ANIMAS...AND BACA COUNTIES TO
HAVE THE HIGHER THREAT FOR STRONG-SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SPC DAY 3 OUTLOOK HAS THE SLIGHT RISK
JUST ALONG THE SOUTHEAST CO/SOUTHWEST KS BORDER. MEANWHILE...WEST
OF THE DRYLINE...THE TYPICAL RELATIVELY DEEP DRY SOUTHWEST FLOW
WILL BE IN PLACE. BREEZY-WINDY CONDITIONS WILL BE LIKELY. NOT TOO
MUCH POTENTIAL FOR ACCUMULATING PRECIPITATION GIVEN A RELATIVELY
DRY AND UNSTABLE SUB-CLOUD LAYER WITH VERY SMALL SURFACE BASED
CAPES VALUES LESS THAN 100 J/KG WITH A LOT OF SHEAR ALOFT. ANY
POTENTIAL FOR ACCUMULATING PRECIPITATION WOULD BE ACROSS THE
HIGHER TERRAIN. SIGNIFICANT VIRGA SHAFTS COULD DEVELOP GIVEN THE
700-500MB LAPSE RATES OF 9.0-9.5 C/KM...LCL HEIGHTS 4K-6K FT
