AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...RESENT WITH SHORT TERM DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER CO
330 PM MDT THU JUN 18 2009

.SHORT TERM...STRONG T-STORM HAS FORMED OVER SEDGWICK COUNTY AT THIS
HOUR. SPC HAS THIS PART OF THE STATE IDENTIFIED AS A SLIGHT RISK
AREA. MAY SEE THIS CELL GOING SEVERE AT ANY TIME BEFORE EXITING THE
STATE. LARGE DAMAGING HAIL BIGGEST CONCERN. OTHERWISE EYE ON THE
SOUTHWEST-NORTHEAST BAND OF SHOWERS/T-STORMS MOVING ACROSS NWRN
COLORADO. STORMS FIRING UNDER THE ASCENT REGION OF AN APPROACHING
MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH. DECENT AMOUNT OF CG LIGHTNING WITH THIS
LINE OF CONVECTION. AT ITS PRESENT SPEED...SHOULD SEE THIS BAND OF
STORMS PASSING OVER THE N-CNTRL MTNS NEXT FEW HOURS...THEN OUT
ACROSS THE NRN FRONT RANGE URBAN CORRIDOR AND ADJACENT HIGH PLAINS
BY EARLY THIS EVENING. STORMS WILL PROGRESS EAST OVERNIGHT WITH A
FEW POSSIBLY GOING SEVERE EAST OF A FORT COLLINS TO BURLINGTON LINE
BEFORE MIDNIGHT. AGAIN LARGE HAIL MAIN SEVERE WX THREAT. DO NOT
EXPECT TO SEE MUCH CONVECTION BREAKING OUT OVER SRN PORTIONS OF THE
I-25 URBAN CORRIDOR AND PALMER DIVIDE AS MOISTURE CONTINUES TO
DECREASE WITH ONGOING SWLY FLOW PRIOR TO TROUGH PASSAGE. MODELS SHOW
THE 700-500 TROUGH AXIS MOVING EAST OF THE STATE LINE EARLY FRIDAY
MORNING WITH THE FLOW ALOFT TURNING NWLY THROUGH THE MORNING. WEAK
COLD FRONT SLIDING SEWRD ACROSS CENTRAL WYOMING ATTM PROGGED TO DROP
SOUTH THRU NERN COLORADO EARLY FRIDAY MORNING. TEMP/WIND/PRES FIELDS
INDICATE FROPA AT DENVER BETWEEN 12-15Z TOMORROW. POST FRONTAL/
TROUGH AIRMASS MUCH DRIER AND STABLE SO T-STORM CHANCES VERY LOW AT
BEST AND MAINLY CONFINED TO HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE NRN MTNS...
FRONT RANGE FTHLS AND PALMER DIVIDE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE
A DRY DAY IN STORE FOR MOST OF THE CWFA WITH SFC TEMPS ONLY A COUPLE
DEGS LOWER THAN THOSE OBSERVED TODAY.

.LONG TERM...MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW PRECIPITATION DEVELOPING IN
MOIST WARM ADVECTION FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. STILL SOME QUESTION
ABOUT HOW MUCH DESTABILIZATION DUE TO THE CLOUD COVER...BUT
SOUNDINGS GET TO BE ALMOST SATURATED MOIST ADIABATIC ON SATURDAY SO
IT MAY NOT TAKE MUCH. THE LIMITED INSTABILITY MAY JUST HAVE THE
EFFECT OF KEEPING IT FROM BEING A THOROUGHLY WET DAY. FOR NOW
RAISED POPS A BIT MORE...FOCUSING ON SATURDAY...AND WENT AHEAD AND
ADDED SOME LOW POPS SPREADING NORTH ACROSS THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT.

STILL LOOKING AT SOME WARMING AND DRYING BEHIND THAT WAVE...COMING
IN ALREADY BY SATURDAY EVENING. ENOUGH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL STILL
BE AROUND FOR AT LEAST SEASONAL POPS...AND COULD STILL BE PRETTY
FAVORABLE FOR LATE AFTERNOON CONVECTION. PROBABLY MIXING OUT THE
MOISTURE GRADUALLY SUNDAY AND MONDAY...THEN GRADUAL MOISTENING AGAIN
AFTER THAT...LEADING TO SLIGHT COOLING DUE EARLIER CLOUD COVER.
HINTS OF A SHORTWAVE NORTH OF US AND WEAK FRONT IN THE WED/THU TIME
FRAME BUT UNSURE WHAT IMPACT THERE WILL BE IF ANY. FOR NOW WILL
STICK WITH CLIMATOLOGICAL FORECAST.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS NEXT 24 HOURS. MAY SEE A WEAK T-STORM
PASS OVER THE DENVER METRO AREA EARLY THIS EVENING. ONLY GUSTY WINDS
AND A BRIEF RAINFALL ANTICIPATED. WEAK COLD FRONT ACROSS CENTRAL
WYOMING FORECAST TO SLIDE SOUTH ACROSS NORTHEAST COLORADO AND
THROUGH THE DENVER AREA EARLY FRIDAY MORNING. NO WEATHER EXPECTED
WITH THIS PASSAGE OTHER THAN A SHIFT TO A NORTHEAST WIND.

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

WINDS...A BRIEF HEAVY RAIN SHOWER AND POSSIBLY SOME SMALL HAIL...
PARTICULARLY FROM STORMS UP ALONG THE WYOMING BORDER IN LARIMER AND
WELD COUNTIES. THESE STORMS SHOULD DISSIPATE BY MID-EVENING.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

WARMER AND DRIER CONDITIONS FRIDAY WILL BE FOLLOWED BY AN INCREASE
IN SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY SATURDAY. SUNDAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY WILL RETURN TO WARMER AND DRIER CONDITIONS HOWEVER THE
THREAT OF ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL NOT BE NEEDED TODAY OR TONIGHT.
