AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER CO
308 AM MDT SUN JUN 7 2009

.SHORT TERM...COLD FRONT IS CURRENTLY BACKING SOUTHWEST ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA. WEAK OUTFLOW FROM THUNDERSTORMS OVER SOUTHERN WYOMING
AND NORTHERN COLORADO IS PUSHING THROUGH THE DENVER METRO AREA NOW.
THE COLD FRONT RUNS FROM FORT COLLINS TO FORT LUPTON TO BYERS. AT
ITS CURRENT PACE THE FRONT WILL BE THROUGH MOST OF THE METRO AREA BY
SUNRISE. AIR BEHIND THE FRONT IS VERY MOIST AND COOLER. DEW POINTS
BEHIND THE FRONT OVER NORTHEAST ARE IN THE MID 50S. THIS WILL RESULT
IN LOW CLOUDS AND FOG THIS MORNING.

AT THE UPPER LEVELS...A SHORT WAVE TROUGH OVER UTAH WILL MOVE ACROSS
NORTHERN COLORADO TODAY. THE LIFT FROM THE SHORT WAVE COMBINED WITH
THE MOISTURE BEHIND THE FRONT SHOULD PRODUCE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. THE AMOUNT OF THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY AND THE STRENGTH
OF IT WILL DEPEND ON HOW MUCH CLEARING OCCURS LATE THIS MORNING AND
THIS AFTERNOON. LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE SLOW TO CLEAR OUT TODAY AND
AFTERNOON HEATING WILL BE SLOW. LOWERED HIGH TEMPERATURES TO THE 60S
FOR MOST LOCATIONS TODAY WHICH WILL LIMIT HOW UNSTABLE IT WILL BE
THIS AFTERNOON. IF CURRENT FORECASTED HIGHS PAN OUT CAPES WILL
REMAIN BELOW A 1000 J/KG. THIS WILL MAKE IT HARD FOR STORMS TO
BECOME SEVERE BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE.

.LONG TERM...OVERALL ONLY MINOR ADJUSTMENTS PLANNED IN THE GRIDS. A
PERSISTENT SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL BE OVER COLORADO THROUGH
WEDNESDAY...WITH A CLOSED LOW OVER SRN PORTIONS OF ALBERTA/
SASKATCHEWAN PROVINCES AND AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER TX.  ON MONDAY
...COOLER TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN PLACE WITH A COLD FRONT SETTLING
ALONG THE FRONT RANGE AND PALMER DIVIDE.  THE AMS MAY BE FAIRLY
CAPPED OVER THE NERN PLAINS...BUT NAM12 SOUNDINGS SHOW SUFFICIENT
INSTBY ALONG THE FRONT RANGE AND PALMER DIVIDE WITH CAPES FM
800-1100 J/KG IN THE AFTN. ENUF SPEED/DIRECTIONAL SHEAR IN THE
SOUNDINGS TO SUGGEST A CHANCE OF SVR STORMS MAINLY SOUTH AND EAST OF
DENVER.  THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR STORMS WILL BE ALONG THE PALMER
DIVIDE....ALONG THE LEADING EDGE OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY.  ON
TUESDAY...THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE IS PROGGED TO AMPLIFY SOMEWHAT WITH
A SURFACE TROF ALONG THE FRONT RANGE.  SURFACE DEWPOINTS SHUD
DECREASE ALONG THE FRONT RANGE WITH THE LOW LEVEL THETA-E AXIS
AGAIN SHIFTING TO THE EAST.  THE BEST CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TUESDAY AFTN/EVNG IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR TOWARDS THE
NORTHERN AND EASTERN BORDERS.  TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY...MID
AND UPPER LEVEL MOISTURE WILL INCREASE OVER WRN AND NRN COLORADO AHD
OF AN UPPER LEVEL TROF OVER THE WEST COAST.  THIS SYSTEM IS PROGGED
TO LIFT NORTHEAST ACRS CO ON WEDNESDAY AFTN.  LOW LEVEL MSTR WILL
AGAIN INCREASE AS A SURFACE HIGH OVER THE NRN PLAINS PUSHES ANOTHER
COLD FRONT INTO THE CWFA.  AS A RESULT...THERE WILL BE A DECENT
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER NERN CO WEDNESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  MORE RIDGING IS EVIDENT OVER COLORADO OVER THE
LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK...BUT A TROF OVER THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST MAY
CONTINUE TO KEEP AN UNSETTLED SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT OVER THE
STATE...WITH A CHANCE/SLGT CHC OF AFTN/EVNG TSTMS FOR THURSDAY
THROUGH SATURDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...LOW CLOUDS AND FOG WILL FORM BEHIND A COLD FRONT BY 12Z.
CEILINGS WILL BE 500 TO 1000 FEET AND VISIBILITY MAY BE REDUCED TO
BELOW MILE AT TIMES. THE LOW CLOUDS AND FOG WILL LIFT LATE THIS
MORNING AS THE AIRMASS WARMS. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL DEVELOP AFTER 18Z WITH HEAVY RAIN...SMALL HAIL AND OUTFLOW WIND
GUSTS TO 30 KNOTS BEING THE MAIN THREATS.

.BOU WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.
