AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER CO
130 PM MDT MON JUN 22 2009

.SHORT TERM...DRY SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL BE OVER THE AREA TONIGHT
AS A RIDGE STRENGTHENS OVER THE SOUTHERN CENTRAL PLAINS. A VERY WEAK
UPPER FEATURE WILL MOVE OVER NORTHERN CO THIS EVENING WHICH MAY BE
STRONG ENOUGH TO ALLOW ISOLATED CONVECTION OVER THE NORTHERN
PLAINS...HAVE ADDED A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
SHOULD BE A MILD NIGHT TONIGHT WITH 700 MB TEMPERATURES INCREASING 2
TO 4 DEGREES FROM LAST NIGHT AND A SLIGHT INCREASE IN HIGH CLOUDS.
THE UPPER RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD TOMORROW WITH THE UPPER FLOW
BECOMING A LITTLE MORE SOUTHERLY. THIS WILL ALLOW MOISTURE TO BE
PULLED UP FROM THE SOUTHWEST. GOOD UPWARD QG VERTICAL VELOCITIES
OVER THE STATE TOMORROW COMBINED WITH A WEAK BOUNDARY MOVING SOUTH
FROM WYOMING WILL RESULT IN A MOISTENING UPSLOPE FLOW BY THE
AFTERNOON. NAM SHOWING MORE UNSTABLE AIR MOVING IN FROM THE
EAST...CAPES OF 1700-2500 J/KG OVER THE EASTERN PLAINS AND 600-800
ELSEWHERE. HAVE KEPT IN THE 20-30 POPS FOR THE FORECAST AS THE RIDGE
CONTINUES TO BUILD AND BELIEVE MOST OF THE ACTIVITY WILL BE TO OUR
NORTH AND EAST. TEMPERATURES TUESDAY WILL BE ABOUT THE SAME AS TODAY
AS 700 MB TEMPS INCREASE A DEGREE OR TWO...HOWEVER CLOUD COVER WILL
HELP MODERATE THIS CHANGE.

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY A WEAK SOUTHERLY FLOW
ALOFT WILL BE OVER COLORADO...WITH THE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER
THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND A PACIFIC TROF OFF THE SRN CA COAST.
SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE EMBEDDED IN THE FLOW IS STILL PROGGED TO
MIGRATE INTO WRN AND NRN CO THROUGH THAT TIME.  SOUNDINGS INDICATE
SUFFICIENT INSTBY ALG THE URBAN CORRIDOR (GENERALLY 600-1100 J/KG)
FOR THUNDERSTORMS EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING.  OVER THE NERN PLAINS
...HIGHER CAPES BUT MORE CIN AS WELL.  CURRENT POPS OF 20 PERCENT
LOOK GOOD NO ADJUSTMENTS THERE.  THE PATTERN CHANGES ON FRIDAY AS
THE FLOW ALOFT BECOMES MORE WSWLY.  THE PACIFIC TROF IS PROGGED TO
LIFT ACROSS COLORADO FRIDAY NIGHT.  THERE MAY BE A BETTER CHANCE OF
PCPN AT THAT TIME WITH SOME WEAK QG ASCENT ASSOCIATED WITH THE TROF
ALONG WITH SOME MID LEVEL COOLING.  ON SATURDAY IT LOOKS LIKE A
DRIER WLY FLOW OVER CO WITH A RIDGE STRETCHING ACRS THE SRN HALF OF
THE CONTINENTAL U.S.  THE GFS THEN STARTS TO ADVECT MORE SUBTROPICAL
MSTR AROUND THE RIDGE AND INTO COLORADO FOR SUNDAY INTO MONDAY.  FOR
NOW WL KEEP MORE A GENERIC FCST GOING FOR SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY
WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORM EACH AFTN AND EVNG.
OVERALL...ONLY MINOR ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE GRIDS PLANNED IN THE LONG
TERM.
&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS AND STANDARD DIURNAL WIND PATTERN THROUGH
TOMORROW MORNING. A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
AFTER 18Z.
