AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
237 PM MDT THU JUL 3 2008

.SHORT TERM...
(TODAY AND TONIGHT)

...THE MAIN CHALLENGE IS THE AMOUNT AND STRENGTH OF CONVECTION ON
THE PLAINS...THE PALMER DIVIDE AND THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS...

.CURRENTLY... DAYTIME CONVECTION WITH A WEAKENING CAP ALONG THE I 25
CORRIDOR MAKES SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY. EVEN THOUGH THERE IS
WEAK SHEAR...THERE IS PLENTY OF CAPE AND DECREASING CINS TO ALLOW
FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE WEATHER. WITH UPSLOPE SURFACE FLOW AND
A WEAK SYNOPTIC SYSTEM...THERE SEEMS TO BE NOT ENOUGH INHIBITION TO
STOP THE SUMMERTIME CONVECTION. SINCE THERE IS NO SYNOPTIC FORCING
THE CONVECTION WILL BE CONTAINED TO THE PALMER DIVIDE...THE EASTERN
SLOPED MOUNTAINS ESPECIALLY THE SOUTH EASTERN RANGES...AND PERHAPS
ALONG A BOUNDARY IN THE SOUTHERN EASTERN PLAINS.

.TONIGHT AND TOMORROW...THE CONVECTION SHOULD CONTINUE INTO THE
EARLY EVENING HOURS. THIS WILL END AROUND 6Z...SO I KEPT POPS UP
ACCORDINGLY. THE CONVECTION SHOULD THEN DISSIPATE AND THE EVENING
LOOKS TO BE FAIRLY QUIET. THE NAM AND GFS ARE VERY SIMILAR IN THEIR
DEW POINTS...AND THE ADJUSTED MET SEEMED TO HAVE A HANDLE ON THE
WINDS. NOT LOOKING FOR ANY MAJOR GUSTS AS A RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO
BUILD OVER THE AREA TOMORROW. THE TEMPERATURES WILL INCREASE WITH
THE SOUTHERN I 25 CORRIDOR AND THE EASTERN PLAINS BEING IN THE 90S.
WITH THE RIDGE ENTRENCHED THE ONLY CHANCE FOR POPS TOMORROW AFTERNOON
WILL BE IN THE MOUNTAINS...ALONG THE PALMER DIVIDE AND STRETCHING
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN EASTERN PLAINS.

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

WITH RIDGE AXIS OVERHEAD FRIDAY NIGHT...WOULD EXPECT SPARSE
DAYTIME CONVECTION TO END QUICKLY IN THE EVENING...WITH MOST AREAS
CLEARING BY MIDNIGHT. UPPER RIDGE GETS FLATTENED SLIGHTLY
SATURDAY...AS FIRST IN A SERIES OF WEAK SHORT WAVES EJECTS INTO
THE PLAINS SATURDAY EVENING. MOISTURE STILL LOOKS RATHER LIMITED
DURING THE DAY...BUT WITH INCREASED UPWARD MOTION THERE SHOULD BE
ENOUGH RESIDUAL MOISTURE/INSTABILITY FOR SLIGHTLY BETTER COVERAGE
OF TSRA IN THE AFTERNOON. COULD SEE CONVECTION LINGER INTO
SATURDAY EVENING OVER THE EAST...AS INITIAL WEAK NORTHERLY SURGE
ADVECTS SOME HIGHER DEWPOINTS TOWARD THE MOUNTAINS. MOISTURE AND
UPSLOPE DEEPEN OVER THE EAST ON SUNDAY...AND WITH FAIRLY STRONG
TROUGH MOVING ACROSS THE STATE IN THE AFTERNOON...WOULD EXPECT A
CONTINUED UPTURN IN CONVECTION OVER THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS AND
PLAINS. NUDGED UP POPS AND LOWERED MAX TEMPS SLIGHTLY SUNDAY
AFTERNOON. NICE UPSLOPE AND MOISTURE OVER THE EAST AGAIN
MONDAY...BUT AREA MAY BE ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE UPPER WAVE...WITH
WEAK SUBSIDENCE LIMITING CONVECTION. SUBTLE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
THE GFS AND ECMWF REGARDING POSITION OF UPPER RIDGE LEAD TO SOME
UNCERTAINTY IN CONVECTIVE CHANCES FOR THE TUE-THU FORECAST...WITH
EUROPEAN SOLUTION SLIGHTLY COOLER/MOISTER THAN THE GFS...AS THE
UPPER RIDGE IN THE EURO REMAINS JUST WEST OF THE AREA. GFS LOOKS
HOTTER AND DRIER...THOUGH WEAK UPPER TROPOSPHERIC LOW COULD PLAY
A ROLE IN ENHANCING/SUPPRESSING CONVECTION AS IT WANDERS AROUND
TRAPPED UNDER THE RIDGE. WENT WITH THE GENERIC SUMMERTIME
FORECAST OF HOT TEMPS AND SLIGHT CHANCES FOR PRECIP...PRETTY
STANDARD FOR EARLY JULY. --ETP

&&

.AVIATION...ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS
THE AREA WITH VFR TO MVFR CIGS POSSIBLE WITH THUNDERSTORMS ALONG
WITH HAIL UP TO 1 INCH IN DIAMETER...WIND GUSTS UP TO 60 MPH...AND
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL.  THE AREA WITH THE GREATEST LIKELIHOOD FOR
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WILL BE ALONG THE EASTERN SLOPES OF
THE SOUTHEAST MOUNTAINS...INCLUDING THE KCOS TAF SITE.
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIMINISH AFTER 06Z WITH GRADUALLY CLEARING
SKIES.  NOT EXPECTED MUCH STRATUS REDEVELOPMENT FOR THE TAF
SITES...THOUGH COULD SEE SOME PATCHY MVFR STRATUS REDEVELOP NEAR THE
COLORADO KANSAS BORDER.  ISOLATED AFTN THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE AGAIN ON FRIDAY.  LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL DECREASE ON
FRIDAY THOUGH ENOUGH RESIDUAL MOISTURE WILL LINGER FOR ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS.  ERRATIC GUSTY WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE NEAR
THUNDERSTORMS ALONG WITH LIGHT RAINFALL.

.PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL...EAST
CENTRAL...SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST COLORADO.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON AND
CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING. SOME OF THE STORMS MAY MOVE SLOWLY...AND
PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL. OVER THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS AND
INTERSTATE 25 CORRIDOR...A FEW STORMS MAY BECOME SEVERE WITH HAIL
AROUND 1 INCH IN DIAMETER...WIND GUSTS TO 60 MPH AND CLOUD TO
GROUND LIGHTNING.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

ONLY ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ON FRIDAY...MAINLY
OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN.

THERE WILL BE A GREATER CHANCE FOR STORMS SATURDAY AND SUNDAY AS
A COUPLE OF WEAK DISTURBANCES MOVE THROUGH THE NORTHERN ROCKIES.
OVER THE EASTERN PLAINS...A COUPLE OF THESE STORMS COULD BE ON THE
STRONG SIDE...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR LARGE HAIL AND STRONG WINDS
IN ADDITION TO THE LIGHTNING THREAT. THE CHANCE FOR ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
WEDNESDAY.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET REPORTING CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS WILL
BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS AND ADJACENT PLAINS THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
