AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND JUNCTION CO
437 AM MST MON NOV 22 2010

...ONE STORM ENDS...ANOTHER BEGINS...

.SHORT TERM DISCUSSION...TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...
SNOWFALL HAS DIMINISHED THIS EARLY MORNING. BUT ANOTHER DISTURBANCE
WILL PASS TODAY BRINGING SOME ACCUMULATIONS TO THE MOUNTAINS AND
NORTHERN VALLEYS. ONLY LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED IN RIFLE...
CORTEZ...DURANGO...AND PAGOSA SPRINGS...SO WARNINGS WERE CANCELLED
THERE.

TONIGHT...IN WEAK WARM ADVECTION THE UPPER FLOW BACKS TO SOUTHWEST
AGAIN. LIGHT SNOWFALL WILL LIKELY CONTINUE OVER FAVORED MOUNTAINS BUT
THE VALLEY SHOWERS WILL END. SO SHORTENED THE REMAINING VALLEY
HIGHLIGHTS IN CRAIG...STEAMBOAT...EAGLE...AND GUNNISON TO END AT 6
PM. LOCAL VALLEY ICE FOG MAY OCCUR TOWARDS MORNING WHERE SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS COVER THE GROUND.

TUESDAY...WARM ADVECTION SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL STABILIZE THE
ATMOSPHERE. 700MB WINDS INCREASING TO 35-45KTS. VALLEYS WILL REMAIN
TRAPPED IN SURFACE-BASED INVERSIONS.

TUESDAY NIGHT...145KT JET LIFTS OVER THE CWA AHEAD OF A VERY
COLD -40C COLD CORE SYSTEM DIGGING THROUGH IDAHO. SOUTHWEST
WINDS INCREASE TO 50-60KTS AT MTN TOP LEVEL WITH SNOW DEVELOPING
FIRST IN NE UTAH THEN SPREADING QUICKLY EAST OVERNIGHT. ESPECIALLY
THE NORTHERN VALLEYS WILL MIX OUT AND RAISED TEMPERATURES FOR ALL
ZONES UNDER A STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT. SNOWFALL IS EXPECTED TO BE
LIGHT AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT BUT BLOWING SNOW AND VERY STRONG WIND
GUSTS MAY PRODUCE VISIBILITIES LESS THAN 1/4 MILE. THE NAM IS THE
SLOWER SOLUTION WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE WORKING INTO NORTHWEST COLORADO
BY SUNRISE. HEAVIER BANDED SNOWFALL EXPECTED ALONG THE FRONT.

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY...
BLAST OF COLD AIR WILL CONTINUE WORKING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA
EARLY WEDNESDAY WITH STRONG WINDS...SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW EXPECTED
THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS. FOCUS REMAINS ON THE MOUNTAINS AND HIGHER
VALLEYS IN NORTHWEST COLORADO...WHERE BLIZZARD CONDITIONS WILL BE
POSSIBLE.

STRONG JET ALOFT WILL FINALLY LIFT OUT BY AFTERNOON...WITH H5 TROUGH
SWINGING THROUGH. THIS WILL BRING IMPROVING CONDITIONS FROM WEST TO
EAST BY EARLY AFTERNOON WITH SNOW AND WIND DIMINISHING.

STAGE IS THEN SET FOR THE COLDEST READINGS OF THE SEASON AS CLEARING
SKIES WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND DIMINISHING WINDS WILL RESULT IN EXCELLENT
RADIATIONAL COOLING. EXPECT WIDESPREAD BELOW ZERO TEMPERATURES FOR
THE MOUNTAINS AND HIGHER VALLEYS WITH SINGLE DIGIT READINGS ARRIVING
FOR THE LOWER VALLEYS...INCLUDING GRAND JUNCTION. LITTLE IMPROVEMENT
AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES ARE CONCERNED ON THURSDAY WITH DAYTIME HIGHS
ONLY CLIMBING INTO THE TEENS AND 20S.

SHOT OF WARMER AIR ARRIVES THURSDAY NIGHT AS FLOW BACKS AROUND TO THE
WEST WITH FLAT RIDGING SETTING UP OVER THE FORECAST AREA. THIS WILL
ALLOW OF SERIES OF FAST MOVING SHRTWVS TO PASS TO OUR NORTH...
CLIPPING THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS ABOUT EVERY 24 HOURS. BASED ON
CURRENT TIMING...WOULD EXPECT A CHANCE OF SNOW FOR THE NORTHERN
MOUNTAINS DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS FRIDAY AND AGAIN ON
SATURDAY. SOME TIMING ISSUES RELATED TO A STRONGER WAVE THAT THE GFS
WANTS TO DRIVE THROUGH SUNDAY...WHEREAS THE ECMWF DELAYS IT UNTIL
MONDAY. WILL KEEP SOME MENTION OF SNOW IN THE FORECAST...ALTHOUGH
CONFIDENCE IS NOT ALL THAT HIGH AT THIS POINT. TEMPS WILL BE
MODERATING AS WE CLOSE OUT THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND...WITH MTN LOCATIONS
RESPONDING FIRST AS STRONG VALLEY INVERSIONS WILL HOLD FOR A FEW
DAYS...BEFORE ERODING OUT.

ONE LAST THING TO KEEP AN EYE ON IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A GORGE SNOW
EVENT FROM OURAY TO RED MOUNTAIN PASS ON THURSDAY. COLD NORTHERLY
FLOW MAY WORK ON LINGER MOISTURE IN THE AREA TO PRODUCE A PERIOD OF
SNOWFALL...ALTHOUGH H7 FLOW IS NOT OPTIMAL AT THIS TIME. JUST
SOMETHING TO WATCH OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

&&

.AVIATION...
MOUNTAINS WILL CONTINUE TO BE OBSCD OVER MUCH OF WESTERN COLORADO
AND EASTERN UTAH THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON WITH SNOW AND AREAS OF
BLOWING SNOW. EXPECT IFR TO LIFT CONDS OVER THE MOUNTAINS. VALLEY
LOCATIONS WILL EXPERIENCE PERIODS OF MVFR TO IFR CONDS AS SNOW
SHOWERS MOVE THROUGH TODAY. CONDITIONS IMPROVE FROM WEST
TO EAST TONIGHT...WITH VFR CONDS EXPECTED THROUGH MIDDAY TUESDAY.
ANOTHER STORM APPROACHES TUESDAY AFTERNOON...WITH CIGS DROPPING
AND WINDS INCREASING.
