AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
310 PM MST WED JAN 23 2008

.SHORT TERM...
(TONIGHT AND THURSDAY)

CURRENTLY...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE DROPPING INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS
HAS PUSHED A COLD FRONT THROUGH ALL OF EASTERN COLORADO...WITH WEAK
TO MODERATE EASTERLY WINDS KEEPING COLD AIR BANKED UP AGAINST THE
EASTERN MOUNTAINS. SAW A FEW CLOUDS AND EVEN FLURRIES OVER NORTHEAST
COLORADO EARLIER TODAY...BUT ACTIVITY DISSIPATED AS IT DROPPED SOUTH
OF THE PALMER DIVIDE. MOUNTAINS AND VALLEYS GENERALLY CLEAR WITH
NEAR SEASONAL TEMPS.

TONIGHT...SURFACE HIGH SLIDES EAST WITH TRANSITORY UPPER RIDGE
MIGRATING QUICKLY ACROSS THE STATE OVERNIGHT. NAM HINTS AT BOUNDARY
LAYER MOISTENING OVER THE PLAINS AS SURFACE FLOW BECOMES SOUTHERLY
AND INCREASES AFTER MIDNIGHT...BUT WITH DRY AIR ALOFT AND FLOW
VEERING TO MORE WLY TOWARD 12Z WILL REFRAIN FROM ADDING ANY CLOUDS
AND FOG TO THE OVERNIGHT FORECAST. SHOULD BE ANOTHER COLD
NIGHT...WITH MOST VALLEYS...INCLUDING THE LOWER ARKANSAS
VALLEY...DROPPING INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS EITHER SIDE OF ZERO.

THURSDAY...INCREASING SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT ACROSS THE AREA...AS
UPPER ENERGY BEGINS TO EJECT FROM THE WESTERN U.S. UPPER LOW.
MOISTURE INCREASES RAPIDLY AFTER SUNRISE ALONG AND WEST OF THE
CONTINENTAL DIVIDE...WITH AT LEAST SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS DEVELOPING
IN THE MORNING. STEADIER AND HEAVIER SNOW BEGINS AROUND
MIDDAY...THUS WILL NEED TO ADVANCE THE BEGINNING TIME OF WINTER
WEATHER HIGHLIGHTS TO 18Z FOR BOTH THE SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL
MOUNTAINS. AREA AROUND WOLF CREEK PASS LOOKS ESPECIALLY GOOD FOR
HEAVY SNOW DURING THE DAY WITH OROGRAPHICALLY FAVORABLE SOUTHWEST
FLOW STRENGTHENING. BUMPED UP DAYTIME SNOW ACCUMS FOR MOST ZONES
ALONG THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE...WITH SEVERAL INCHES LIKELY OVER THE
HIGHER TERRAIN BY EVENING. FARTHER EAST...WILL SEE SOME SNOW SHOWERS
SPILL EASTWARD OVER THE SANGRES AND PERHAPS AS FAR EAST AS THE
WETS/TELLER COUNTY...THOUGH ACCUMS WILL BE LIGHT. /10

.LONG TERM...
(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY)

...SIGNIFICANT MOUNTAIN SNOWS THURSDAY NIGHT AND AGAIN SUNDAY
THROUGH TUESDAY...
...BREEZY AND GENERALLY DRY OVER THE PLAINS...

OROGRAPHIC COMPONENT TO WINTER STORM THU NIGHT DOES NOT LOOK AS
IMPRESSIVE AS IT HAD IN PREVIOUS MODEL RUNS...BUT STILL SHOULD SEE
SW FLOW AT AROUND 30-35 KTS OVR THE SAN JUANS THU NIGHT INTO FRI
MORN. HAVE CONVERTED THE WATCH TO A WARNING FOR THE ERN SAN
JUANS...AND ADDED A SNOW AND BLSN ADVISORY FOR THE HIGH SAWATCH
AND LA GARITA MOUNTAINS. SHOULD SEE TOTALS OF AS MUCH AS A FOOT
TO A FOOT AND A HALF OF SNOW OVR THE FAVORED SLOPES IN THE SAN
JUANS...AND LESSER AMTS FOR THE LOWER ELEVS AND NRN RANGES BY FRI
AFTERNOON. WILL HAVE TO WATCH SURROUNDING ZONES...ESPECIALLY LAKE
COUNTY...WHICH COULD POTENTIALLY SEE ADVISORY LEVEL SNOWS FROM
THIS SYSTEM. HAVE MAINTAINED THE DRY AND MILDER CONDITIONS OVR THE
PLAINS ON FRI...WHICH SHOULD MIX OUT IN MODERATE WEST WINDS.

A BIT OF A BREAK FRI AFTERNOON THROUGH SAT AS THE WEST COAST
CUTOFF PHASES WITH AN UPSTREAM PACNW SHORTWAVE...AND A SHORTWAVE
RIDGE BUILDS OVR THE ROCKIES. COULD EVEN SEE A FAIR AMT OF SUN IN
THE MTS ON SAT. HAVE ENDED THE WSW BY FRI AFTERNOON AS THERE IS
GOOD MODEL CONSENSUS ON THE BUILDING RIDGE AND SUBSIDANCE BY FRI
AFTERNOON. THE NRN MTS SHOULD BE LAST TO CLEAR OUT. BY SUN
MORN...THE PHASED PACIFIC LOW WILL EJECT NEWD INTO THE
ROCKIES...AND BRING WITH IT SIGNIFICANT PACIFIC MOISTURE. THIS
SHOULD BRING ANOTHER MORE EXTENSIVE ROUND OF HEAVY SNOW TO ALL OF
THE CONTDVD AND PERHAPS EVEN THE ERN MTS. GIVEN THE STRENGTH AND
MOISTURE CONTENT OF THIS EVENT...WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE THE
HIGHER ELVS PICK UP A COUPLE MORE FEET OF SNOW WITH THIS SYSTEM BY
EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE SWRN MTS SHOULD SEE THE BRUNT OF IT ON SUN-
MON...AND THEN HEAVY SNOW WILL SHIFT TO THE NRN RANGES MON-TUE.
IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE BREEZY AND ON THE DRY SIDE OVR THE PLAINS
DURING THIS TIME.

ALTHOUGH IT IS JUST OUTSIDE THE FORECAST PERIOD...BOTH GFS AND EC
ARE STILL HINTING AT THE POSSIBILITY OF A THIRD STORM THE LAST DAY
OF JANUARY. BOTH MODELS HAVE BEEN SOMEWHAT INCONSISTENT WITH THE
STRENGTH AND TRACK OF THE STORM...WITH THE LATEST GFS BRINGING IT
THROUGH AS AN OPEN WAVE WHILE THE EC TAKES THE STORM FURTHER SOUTH
AS A CUTOFF LOW. HOWEVER...IT DOES APPEAR LIKELY THAT MORE
UNSETTLED WINTRY WEATHER IS ON TAP FOR THE END OF THE MONTH. ROSE

&&

.AVIATION...GENERALLY VFR THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING AT ALL TAF
SITES...ALONG WITH LIGHT WINDS.  VFR CIGS (12K FEET OR HIGHER) WILL
DEVELOP OVER THE AREA AFTER 12Z THURSDAY...WITH POTENTIAL FOR A FEW
-SHSN AND MVFR CONDITIONS AT KALS AFTER 21Z. /10
