.UPDATE...
823 PM MDT WED APR 29 2009

JUST COMPLETED AN UPDATE. CANCELLED WATCH EARLY. LEFT SMALL POPS
OVER MOST OF THE AREA THIS EVENING DUE TO DRY LINE AND LINGERING
MESOSCALE BOUNDERIES. INCOMING FRONT AND NORTHERN END OF DRY LINE
STARTING TO FIRE THUNDERSTORMS TO OUR NORTH. AS A RESULT LEFT THE
HIGHEST CHANCE OVER THE NORTHWEST PORTION OF THE AREA. NEWEST
MODEL DATA THAT IS JUST COMING IN SUPPORTS THE OVERNIGHT POPS
FORECAST AT THIS TIME.

TWEEKED WINDS...CLOUDS...TEMPERATURES...AND DEWPOINTS BASED ON
CURRENT TRENDS. ALSO DUE TO THE HIGHER DEWPOINTS AND EXPECTED
FRONTAL TIMING...DID RAISE MINS A LITTLE...ESPECIALLY IN THE
SOUTHEAST PORTION. ALSO RAISED WINDS A LITTLE BASED ON WHAT AM SEE
UPSTREAM.

.DISCUSSION...
200 PM MDT WED APR 29 2009

SHORT TERM FORECAST PERIOD (TONIGHT-SATURDAY NIGHT) CONTINUES TO
BE DOMINATED BY NEAR DAILY AND OVERNIGHT CHANCES OF
PRECIPITATION...OVERNIGHT/EARLY MORNING THREAT FOR FOG...EXTENSIVE
CLOUDINESS AND BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES.

BEST CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT AND THURSDAY
WILL BE EAST OF THE CO/KS BORDER. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE
NORTHWEST PORTION OF THE AREA TONIGHT WHILE A DISTURBANCE MOVES
OUT OF COLORADO. INTERACTION OF THESE FEATURES WILL PROMOTE A HIGH
CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION IN SFC CONVERGENT AREA GENERALLY ALONG AND
NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE. THIS AREA OF PRECIP WILL MOVE NORTHEAST
BUT THE OVERALL AREA OF PRECIP WILL SHIFT TO THE SOUTHEAST SLOWLY
THROUGH THE DAY THURSDAY.

ANOTHER DISTURBANCE MOVES IN THURSDAY NIGHT AND CONTINUES INTO
FRIDAY BRINGING A CONTINUED CHANCE FOR LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS. MORE OF
THE SAME FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE SOMEWHAT CHALLENGING GIVEN PERIODS OF STRATUS
WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BURN OFF WITH OTHER DAYS HAVING LITTLE
STRATUS BUT CONSIDERABLE CLOUDINESS IN THE MID AND UPPER LEVELS.
HAVE TRENDED COOLER THROUGH SATURDAY USING THE MODIFIED AND
UNMODIFIED 850 TEMPERATURES AND A BLEND OF THE VARIOUS 2M/MOS
GUIDANCE NUMBERS. HIGH TEMPERATURES THURSDAY NEAR 60 WITH MID 50S
(POSSIBLY COOLER) FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.

FOR THE EXTENDED PERIODS (SUNDAY-WEDNESDAY)...MORE OF THE SAME.
NORTHWEST/WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL PROMOTE DISTURBANCES AND A
CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION NEARLY EACH DAY AND NIGHT. TEMPERATURES
LOOK TO BE SEASONAL.

.AVIATION...
1110 PM MDT WED APR 29 2009

FOR THE 06Z TAFS...VERY ACTIVE AND UNCERTAIN PERIOD. COLD FRONT IS
SLOWLY PUSHING SOUTH OVER THE AREA. NOT SURE HOW FAR SOUTH DEVELOPMENT
WILL BE BUT TSRA LOOK TO STAY JUST TO THE EAST OF KGLD. KMCK
SHOULD CATCH THE BRUNT OF THIS THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX. MODELS ARE
DIFFERING ON THE AMOUNT OF CLOUD COVER AND HEIGHT OF CEILINGS.
SHOULD SEE MVFR CEILINGS THIS MORNING AND RAISING ABOVE MVFR
DURING THE AFTERNOON.
