AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
330 PM MDT SAT MAY 31 2008

.SHORT TERM...
(TONIGHT AND SUNDAY)

MAIN CONCERNS REMAIN CONVECTION COVERAGE AND STRENGTH ACROSS THE
EASTERN PLAINS.

CURRENT WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND RUC UPPER AIR ANALYSIS INDICATING
MODERATE WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT ACROSS THE REGION WITH A MINOR EMBEDDED
SHORT WAVE MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL WYOMING ATTM. AT THE SFC...LEE
TROUGHING IN PLACE ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS KEEPING EASTERLY LOW LEVEL
UPSLOPE IN PLACE ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS. A DIFFUSE BOUNDARY IS
ALSO EVIDENT ACROSS WESTERN TEXAS AND EASTERN NEW MEXICO WITH
SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATING CU FIELDS NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY ACROSS
THE OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE ATTM. SATELLITE AND REGIONAL RADAR ALSO
INDICATING CU DEVELOPING WITH A FEW ECHOES ACROSS NORTHEASTERN
COLORADO...WITH MAINLY FLAT CU ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST MTS AND ADJACENT
PLAINS ATTM.

TONIGHT...MODERATE WESTERLY FLOW CONTINUES ACROSS THE REGION WITH
CENTRAL WYOMING SHORT WAVE CONTINUING TO MOVE INTO THE NORTHERN HIGH
PLAINS OVERNIGHT. MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE CAPES BETWEEN 400-800
J/KG ACROSS EASTERN MTS AND ADJACENT PLAINS WITH CAPES APPROACHING
1000 J ACROSS EXTREME SE BACA COUNTY. MODELS ALSO INDICATING
BOUNDARY ACROSS WESTERN TEXAS LIFTING SLOWLY TO THE NORTH WITH
A THETA E RIDGE DEVELOPING INTO EXTREME SE COLORADO OVERNIGHT.
WITH THAT SAID...ALONG WITH A FEW MORE HOURS OF HEATING...HAVE KEPT
ISOLATED -TSRA ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS AND ADJACENT PLAINS THROUGH
THE EVENING. ACROSS THE REST OF THE PLAINS...HAVE GONE WITH ISOLATED
POPS THROUGH THE NIGHT WITH MODELS INDICATING ELEVATED INSTABILITY
WITH DEVELOPING THETA E RIDGE. WITH THE INCREASED LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE...SHOULD SEE STRATUS DEVELOPING OVERNIGHT ACROSS THE FAR SE
PLAINS...THOUGH LOOKS TO STAY JUST EAST OF THE I-25 CORRIDOR.

SUNDAY...WESTERLY FLOW PROGGED TO INCREASE ACROSS THE REGION AS
ANOTHER EMBEDDED SHORT WAVE MOVES ACROSS THE GREAT BASIN REGION
AND INTO NORTHWESTERN COLORADO LATE IN THE DAY. LEE TROUGH PROGGED
TO STRENGTHEN AND MOVE OUT ACROSS THE I-25 CORRIDOR THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON...KEEPING MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW WITH DEW PTS MID 40S TO
MID 50S IN PLACE ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS. WITH INCREASED UVV AHEAD
OF PASSING WAVE...COULD SEE INCREASED COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORMS
ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS AND PLAINS. WITH AMPLE SHEAR...COULD SEE
A FEW SEVERE STORMS PRODUCING LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE FAR SE PLAINS WHERE CAPES ARE PROGGED
BETWEEN 1500-2500 J/KG.

OUT WEST...NOT MUCH CHANGE IN CURRENT DRY AND BREEZY WEATHER
PATTERN. -MW

.LONG TERM...
(MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)

...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS INCREASING NEXT WEEK...
...LARGE WEATHER SYSTEM POSSIBLE MIDWEEK...

SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...WITH A FRONTAL BOUNDARY STRETCHED ACROSS
EASTERN CO INTO THE OK/TX PANHANDLES INTO SOUTHERN PLAINS...POTENTIAL
FOR NOCTURNAL MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEM(MCS) TO DEVELOP JUST TO THE
EAST OF EASTERN CO SUNDAY NIGHT IN RESPONSE TO MIDLEVEL WARM AIR
ADVECTION AND SOUTH-SOUTHWESTERLY LOW LEVEL JET STREAK OVERNIGHT.
STRONGEST 800-700MB WARM AIR ADVECTION PROGGED ACROSS EAST CENTRAL
CO WITH 0-6KM MOST UNSTABLE CAPE(MUCAPE) VALUES OF 1500-2500 J/KG
ACROSS NORTHEAST CO INTO SOUTHWEST KS AROUND 06Z/02...WHICH
SUPPORTS MCS ACROSS NORTHEAST CO INTO NORTHWEST KS OVERNIGHT AND
MIGRATING EASTWARD TOWARDS MONDAY MORNING. WILL MAINTAIN THE
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM MENTION IN THE GRIDS FOR SUNDAY EARLY EVENING
FOR CONTINUITY. RELATIVELY WARM MIDLEVEL TEMPERATURES...700MB +12C
TO +18C...WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD ACROSS THE CENTRAL ROCKIES.
DEPENDING ON THE MCSS STRENGTH AND DEVELOPMENT...POTENTIAL FOR A
VERY MOIST SURFACE-PBL TO ADVECT INTO EASTERN CO WITH STRATUS/FOG
ACROSS THE FAR EASTERN CO PLAINS LATE SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY
MORNING. CHALLENGING THUNDERSTORM FORECAST MONDAY AFTERNOON WITH
THE GFS VERY DRY AND WARM/HOT... 700MB TEMPERATURES +15C TO
+18C...ACROSS ALL OF SOUTHERN CO WHILE THE NAM12 TRIES TO PRINT
OUT SOME QPF IN THE AFTERNOON. NAM12 MIGHT BE SUFFERING FROM TOO
HIGH SURFACE DEW POINTS AND RESULTANT INSTABILITY. SURFACE DRY
LINE SHOULD MIX OUT TOWARDS OR EAST OF THE CO/KS BORDER WHERE THIS
MIGHT BE A FOCAL POINT FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT...IF THE
LOW/MIDDLE LEVEL CONVECTIVE INHIBITION CAN BE OVERCOME FOR
SURFACE-BASED INITIATED THUNDERSTORMS. KINEMATICS WOULD SUGGEST A
POTENTIAL FOR STRONG- SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND EAST OF THE
DRY LINE...WHERE EVER IT ENDS UP. ALL DEPENDS ON ANY MIDLEVEL
SHORTWAVE TO ENHANCE CONVECTION...BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES LOW LEVEL
CONVERGENCE AND UPSLOPE/OROGRAPHIC FLOW IS NOT ENOUGH TO SPARK
SURFACE-BASED INITIATED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. PLAN TO MAINTAIN
THE LOW POPS ALONG AND EAST OF I-25 CORRIDOR...BUT THAT MIGHT BE
WAY TOO HIGH ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR IF MOST OF THE MOISTURE MIXES
OUT WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR VIRGA OR HIGH-CLOUD BASE (DRY)
THUNDERSTORMS. THE COMBINATION OF VERY LOW HUMIDITY VALUES(LESS
THAN 15%)...HAINES 5-6...DRY FUELS...AND GUSTY WINDS COULD
INCREASE THE CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS MONDAY
AFTERNOON/EVENING. HIGH TEMPERATURES INTO THE 90S WILL BE LIKELY
ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTHEAST CO MONDAY.

TUESDAY...WHERE WILL THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE BOUNDARY BE LOCATED
ACROSS EASTERN CO OR CENTRAL/SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS IS THE (USUAL)
BIGGEST CHALLENGE IN JUNE. WARM TEMPERATURES...700MB +14C TO
+17C...AND MARGINAL MIDLEVEL MOISTURE REMAIN ALOFT. GFS PRINTS
OUT NO QPF ACROSS SOUTHERN CO...WHILE THE NAM12 BLOWS-UP A BUNCH
OF PRECIPITATION TUESDAY AFTERNOON. CONCEPTUALLY...BOTH MODELS
WOULD SUGGEST MAINLY VIRGA ALONG AND WEST OF I-25 CORRIDOR...BUT
THE WILDCARD WILL BE THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE BOUNDARY LOCATION...
WHICH I WILL PLAY ACROSS THE FAR EASTERN CO PLAINS GIVEN
RELATIVELY DEEP MIXING PROJECTED. ALSO...THE LACK OF AN UPPER LEVEL
FEATURE COULD COME INTO PLAY FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT OR THE
LACK THERE OF. POTENTIAL FOR STRONG-SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ALONG
AND EAST OF THE DRY LINE IF THE LOW LEVEL CONVECTIVE INHIBITION
CAN BE OVERCOME FOR SURFACE-BASED INITIATED THUNDERSTORMS. ONCE
AGAIN...HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL PROBABLY BE AROUND 90F ACROSS
SOUTHEAST CO. CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS COULD BE POSSIBLE
FOR SOUTHEAST CO PLAINS...IF ALL THE CONDITIONS CAN COME TOGETHER
WITH THE WIND LOOKING MARGINAL RIGHT NOW.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...NEXT SIGNIFICANT WEATHER SYSTEM TO
MOVE THROUGH THE CENTRAL ROCKIES IS STILL PROJECTED TO BE WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT. FOR WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...POTENTIALLY INTERESTING WEATHER WITH STRONG-SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE ALONG AND EAST OF THE DRY LINE ACROSS FAR
EASTERN CO PLAINS/CENTRAL PLAINS AND CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER
CONDITIONS WEST OF THE DRY LINE BACK TOWARDS THE I-25 CORRIDOR AND
MOUNTAINS/HIGH VALLEYS. 12Z/31 GFS HAS NOW TRENDED TOWARDS A
CLOSED LOW MOVING ACROSS NORTHERN CO THURSDAY/THURSDAY NIGHT. ON
THE FLIP-SIDE...THE 12Z/31 ECMWF JUST HAS A BROAD FLATTENING
TROUGH MOVING THROUGH CO WITH THE PARENT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER
THE NORTHERN PLAINS. WINDY-VERY WINDY CONDITIONS AHEAD OF THIS
WEATHER SYSTEM WITH THE GREATER CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION ACROSS
THE MOUNTAINS/HIGH VALLEYS...ESPECIALLY THE CONTINENTAL
DIVIDE...AND COOLER TEMPERATURES ON THURSDAY. WESTERLY AND
RELATIVELY DRY FLOW RETURNS TO THE CENTRAL ROCKIES...PER
ENSEMBLE DATA...FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WITH LITTLE OR NO CHANCE FOR
PRECIPITATION AND MUCH WARMER TEMPERATURES. 700MB TEMPERATURES
PROGGED TO APPROACH +18C ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTHERN CO NEXT
SATURDAY...WHICH IS WELL INTO THE 90S ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST CO
PLAINS. METZE

&&

.AVIATION...

ISOLD -TSRA STILL POSSIBLE ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS AND PLAINS THIS
EVENING...WITH SLIGHT CHANCES CONTINUING ACROSS THE FAR SE PLAINS
OVERNIGHT. EXPECTING MVFR STRATUS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE FAR SE
PLAINS OVERNIGHT...THOUGH LOOKS TO STAY EAST OF THE I-25 CORRIDOR.
ISOLD CONVECTION REMAINS IN THE FORECAST ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS
SUNDAY AFTERNOON. CLEAR CONDITIONS ALONG WITH BREEZY AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING WINDS REMAIN IN FORECAST FOR KALS. -MW

.HYDROLOGY...

RIVERS AND CREEKS WILL CONTINUE TO RUN RELATIVELY HIGH FROM SNOW
MELT RUNOFF FOR THE FIRST WEEK OF JUNE...WHICH IS RIGHT ON SCHEDULE.
FROM WELLSVILLE TO CANON CITY TO PUEBLO...THE ARKANSAS RIVER IS
RUNNING RELATIVELY HIGH. IT IS PROJECTED TO BE NEAR OR JUST AT
FLOOD STAGE AROUND CANON CITY THIS COMING WEEK. HIGH TERRAIN SNOW
MELT WILL CONTINUE GIVEN 700MB TEMPERATURES PROGGED TO BE +12C TO
+20C FOR THE NEXT 10 DAYS...OR EXCEPT FOR THIS THURSDAY(5 JUN). METZE

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

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AND MOVE EAST ONTO THE FAR EASTERN PLAINS BY EARLY
EVENING. ONE OR TWO OF THESE STORMS MAY BECOME SEVERE OVER THE FAR
EASTERN PLAINS...PRODUCING WINDS TO 60 MPH AND HAIL UP TO 1 INCH IN
DIAMETER.

ALL THUNDERSTORMS TODAY WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DANGEROUS CLOUD
TO GROUND LIGHTNING.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY

MOIST SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD OVER THE EASTERN
COLORADO PLAINS ON SUNDAY. BY LATE AFTERNOON...THERE WILL BE THE
CHANCE FOR ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS...SOME OF WHICH
COULD BECOME SEVERE ESPECIALLY OVER THE PALMER DIVIDE...NORTHERN
EL PASO COUNTY...AND LOWER ARKANSAS VALLEY. THE PRIMARY THREAT
FROM THESE STORMS WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS AND VERY LARGE HAIL...BUT
AN ISOLATED TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT.

ON MONDAY...STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE STORMS WILL AGAIN BE
POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY LATE IN THE AFTERNOON THROUGH EVENING OVER THE
FAR SOUTHEASTERN PLAINS. GENERALLY DRY CONDITIONS SHOULD THEN
PERSIST UNTIL WEDNESDAY...WHEN A STRONG SPRING STORM WILL BEGIN
MOVING INTO THE ROCKIES. THIS STORM WILL BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR
WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS EITHER WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY...AND COLDER
AIR BEHIND THE SYSTEM WILL BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME LIGHT HIGH
ELEVATION SNOWFALL BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS MAY BE POSSIBLE
THIS AFTERNOON AFTER 4 PM OVER THE FAR EASTERN PLAINS OF SOUTHEAST
COLORADO.
