AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
339 PM MDT FRI MAY 8 2009

.SHORT TERM...

(TONIGHT AND SATURDAY)

ANOTHER SURGE OF COOLER AIR IS PUSHING INTO THE SOUTHEASTERN
COLORADO PLAINS. MOISTURE WITH THIS UPSLOPE IS EXPECTED TO
BRING ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING TO THE EAST FACING SLOPES
AND PALMER DIVIDE...WITH THE GREATEST CHANCES IN EL PASO AND TELLER
COUNTIES. AS TEMPERATURES COOL...INCREASING MOISTURE WILL BRING LOW
CLOUDS AND FOG TO MAINLY THE PALMER DIVIDE...WITH ISOLATED RAIN
SHOWERS ELSEWHERE. OVER THE HIGHEST ELEVATIONS...SOME ISOLATED SNOW
SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE EARLY IN THE MORNING.

THE MOIST UPSLOPE FLOW WILL CONTINUE THE THREAT OF SHOWERS...WITH
ISOLATED AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY. WITH THE CONTINUED MOIST
EASTERLY FLOW...AND A COUPLE OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES MOVING
ACROSS THE AREA TO THE NORTH...EXPECT THE ISOLATED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO SPREAD ACROSS ALL EXCEPT THE EASTERN SAN JUAN AND
LA GARITA MOUNTAINS ON SATURDAY. --JKH--

.LONG TERM...

(SUNDAY-FRIDAY)

MAIN CONCERN THIS PERIOD IS COOL CLOUDY END TO THE WEEKEND.

CLOUDY COOL WX WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE 2ND PART OF THE WEEKEND.
OVERALL...I AM NOT TOO CONCNERNED ABOUT ANY SIGNIF PRECIP ANYWHERE
OVER THE CWA...BUT I DO BELIEVE WE WILL SEE LOTS OF CLOUDS SAT NITE
ACROSS THE C MTN REGION AND PLAINS (ROUGHLY N AND E OF A LINE FROM
MONARCH PASS...PUEBLO...TRINIDAD). ON SUNDAY...AREAS W OF THE FRONT
RANGE MTNS (PIKES PEAK/WETS/SANGRES) SHOULD SEE LOTS MORE SUN...BUT
THE PLAINS WILL LIKELY BE MOSTLY CLOUDY TO CLOUDY...ESPECIALLY IN
THE MORNING. EXPECT HIGHS MAINLY IN THE 60S PLAINS...50S KCOS AREA
AND 70S MTN VALLEYS.

IF PRECIP DOES OCCUR...THE BEST CHANCE WILL PROBABLY BE ACROSS THE
PIKES PEAK REGION SAT NITE (LIGHT SHOWERS/DRIZZLE). ON SUNDAY...WE
MAY SEE A FEW WEAK TSRA ALONG THE E SLOPES OF THE FRONT RANGE MTNS
DURING THE LATTER PART OF THE AFTERNOON IF WE CAN GET ENOUGH
INSTABILITY. WE COULD SEE SOME FOG ACROSS PARTS OF THE
REGION...BUT THE BUFFKIT SOUNDINGS WERE NOT INDICATIVE OF DENSE
FOG ATTM.

AS FOR THE REST OF THE FCST...CLOUDS WILL LIKELY LINGER ON THE
PLAINS MONDAY MORNING...WITH SKIES CLEARING RATHER RAPIDLY BY LATE
MORNING. THE REST OF NEXT WEEK ATTM LOOKS RATHER DRY AND WARM. ONLY
EXCEPTION MAY BE WED WHEN A WEAK FRONT MOVES SOUTH AND WE GET SOME
MOIST UPSLOPE FLOW INTO THE REGION WHICH MAY ALLOW FOR A FEW STRONG
TSRA TO DEVELOP. /HODANISH

&&

.AVIATION...

SOME LOW CLOUDS WL BE FOUND ACRS MUCH OF THE SE PLAINS TONIGHT.
GENERALLY MVFR CIGS CAN BE EXPECTED OVR MUCH OF THE SE PLAINS...BUT
IFR CIGS WL LIKELY BE FOUND AT KCOS...WITH LOW CLOUDS OBSCURING THE
SE MTS TONIGHT AS WELL. MOUNTAIN TOPS WILL REMAIN OBSCURED SATURDAY
WHILE CEILINGS IMPROVE ELSEWHERE. ISOLATED TO SCT -SHRA TSRA ARE
EXPECTED ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS AND MTNS SATURDAY.

.PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NONE.
