AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
417 AM MDT SAT JUN 5 2010

.SHORT TERM...
(TONIGHT AND SATURDAY)

...A BIT COOLER TODAY...

A VERY MILD NIGHT CURRENTLY...AS OF 330 AM KPUB STILL SITTING
AT 70 DEG F...ALONG WITH MUCH OF THE PLAINS. HIGH VALLEYS HAVE
COOLED TO THE LOWER 50S. SOME LEE WAVE CLOUDS SHOWING UP ON IR
IMAGERY AS WRLY FLOW CONTINUES TO RAMP UP.

MAIN QUESTION TODAY IS EXTENT AND STRENGTH OF CONVECTION LATE THIS
AFTERNOON. TEMPS SHOULD BE A FEW DEGREES LOWER THAN YESTERDAY WITH
MORE CLOUDS/MOISTURE BY AFTERNOON...AND N TO ERLY SFC WINDS.
GUIDANCE SEEMS A BIT HIGH CONSIDERING THOSE FACTORS...SO HAVE GONE
BELOW GUIDANCE FOR HIGHS. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE DAKOTAS
AND NE AS THE DAY PROGRESSES...SO WILL SEE INCREASED UPSLOPE FLOW
THRU THE DAY...AND THIS WILL ENHANCE THE CHANCE FOR CONVECTION OVR
THE ERN MTNS BY EARLY AFTERNOON...SPREADING TO THE PLAINS BY LATE
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVE. ACTIVITY SHOULD DIE OFF AFTER SUNSET...BUT
COULD SEE SOME RESIDUAL SHWRS/STORMS OVER THE NERN ZONES LATE
TONIGHT. LAST FEW NAM RUNS CONTINUE TO INDICATE FAIRLY WIDESPREAD
CONVECTION BY LATE AFTERNOON OVR THE MTNS AND ALONG THE I-25
CORRIDOR...WITH THE LOWEST CHANCE FOR PRECIP OVR THE FAR ERN PLAINS.
CHANCE FOR SVR WX LOOKS LOW...WITH SOUNDINGS RATHER DRY BELOW 600
MB DESPITE THE INCREASING DEWPOINTS. COULD SEE CAPE OVER THE SRN
FRONT RANGE IN THE 500-1000 J/KG RANGE. SHEAR ALSO RATHER
MODEST...40 KTS AT BEST...BUT MARGINALLY GOOD ENOUGH FOR SOME
ORGANIZED STORM STRUCTURE...PARTICULARLY ALONG ANY BOUNDARY THAT
DEVELOPS LATER THIS AFTERNOON. HIGH CLOUD BASES SHOULD AGAIN LIMIT
SVR POTENTIAL. INCREASED CLOUD COVER TONIGHT OVR THE PLAINS WILL
KEEP OVERNIGHT CONDITIONS ON THE MILD SIDE. ROSE

.LONG TERM...
(SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)

NOT A WHOLE LOT OF CHANGE IN THE PREVIOUS THINKING...WITH HOT AND
DRY CONDITIONS EXPECTED ACROSS THE WEST...AND PERIODIC FRONTAL
INTRUSIONS ACROSS THE PLAINS BRINGING POSSIBILITY FOR STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA...ESPECIALLY SUNDAY AND AGAIN FOR
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

AS FOR THE DETAILS...UPPER RIDGE OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST BUILDS
NORTHWARD ON SUNDAY WITH SOME OF THE WARMEST MID LEVEL TEMPS SEEN
YET THIS YEAR (+19 TO +21C) SPREADING ACROSS THE WESTERN PORTIONS
OF THE DISTRICT. THIS SHOULD YIELD MAX TEMPS IN THE 80S TO LOWER
90S ACROSS THE VALLEYS WITH 70S/LOWER 80S ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN
COMMUNITIES...AND 60S ABOVE TIMBERLINE. MEANWHILE...SOUTHEAST
PLAINS WILL REMAIN IN COOLER POST FRONTAL UPSLOPE FLOW. MODELS
STILL DIFFERING RUN TO RUN ON THE AMOUNT OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
RETURN ACROSS SE CO. 00Z NAM12 HAD DEW POINTS FALLING INTO THE
UPPER 40S ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS BY AFTN...WITH
SOME LOWER TO MID 50S HUGGING THE SRN CO BORDER. 00Z GFS MAINTAINS
DEW POINTS IN THE LOWER/MID 50S. HOWEVER 06Z NAM12 HAS OSCILLATED
BACK TO A MORE MOIST SOLN WITH DEW POINTS IN THE 50S AND EVEN
LOWER 60S ACROSS BACA COUNTY. (QUICK LOOK AT 06Z GFS ALSO
INCREASING DEW POINTS ACROSS THE PLAINS.) THUS AMOUNT OF
INSTABILITY IS STILL IN QUESTION. WITH DEW POINTS IN THE
50S...CAPE VALUES WILL PROBABLY RANGE IN THE 1000-1500 J/KG
RANGE..THOUGH UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S COULD GIVE CAPES AROUND 2000+
J/KG. FLOW ALOFT NOT ALL THAT STRONG...BUT WITH SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW
BENEATH MODERATE WESTERLIES ALOFT...0-6KM SHEARS ARE RUNNING
AROUND 40 KTS...ENOUGH TO SUPPORT SOME UPDRAFT ORGANIZATION/SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL. WITH THAT...WILL MAINTAIN MENTION OF
SEVERE IN HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. HARD TO FIND ANY SHORTWAVES
IN THE MODELS TO ENHANCE CONVECTIVE COVERAGE (ASIDE FROM THE
FORCING DUE TO UPSLOPE AND DIURNAL HEATING)...SO ISOLATED POPS
LOOK GOOD FOR NOW. IT SHOULD FOLLOW THE TYPICAL SCENARIO WITH
THESE TYPES OF PATTERNS...WITH THUNDERSTORMS FIRING OVER THE
MOUNTAINS BY EARLY AFTERNOON...THEN MOVING OFF INTO THE PLAINS BY
LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING. HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE
PRIMARY THREATS DEPENDING ON AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY PRESENT.

MONDAY...SURFACE LOW KICKS EASTWARD ACROSS THE PLAINS...AND LATEST
MODELS SEND THE DRY LINE/FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO THE NORTH AND EAST OF
THE AREA BY AFTN...WITH +20 TO +21C H7 TEMPS SPREADING ACROSS ALL OF THE
SOUTHEAST PLAINS.  LATEST GUIDANCE GIVING TEMPS IN THE LOWER 100S
ACROSS THE SE PLAINS WHICH IS WARMER THAN PREVIOUS RUNS HAD
INDICATED...AND THIS CERTAINLY SEEMS PLAUSIBLE ASSUMING THE MODELS
HAVE A BETTER HANDLE ON THE FRONTAL/DRY LINE POSITIONS. HAVE NUDGED
MAX TEMPS UPWARD TO AROUND 100 ACROSS THE PLAINS. THIS WOULD ALSO
SHIFT ANY SEVERE THUNDERSTORM THREAT OUT OF SOUTHEAST
COLORADO...AND ACROSS NE CO/NW KS INSTEAD. OTHERWISE...HOT
CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE WESTERN AREAS MONDAY. WESTERLY
WINDS ACROSS THE SAN LUIS VALLEY INCREASE FOR MONDAY...AND COULD
COME CLOSE TO CRITICAL THRESHOLDS FOR FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS...DUE
TO THE LOW RHS AND DRY FUELS ACROSS THE REGION. THIS WILL CONTINUE
TO BE MONITORED.

THE FRONT DROPS BACK INTO SOUTHEAST CO MONDAY NIGHT...LIKELY AIDED
BY THUNDERSTORM OUTFLOW ORIGINATING ACROSS NE CO.  THIS SETS UP
ANOTHER UPSWING IN THUNDERSTORMS AND SEVERE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL
ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.
MEANWHILE...WESTERN CO REMAINS PREDOMINANTLY HOT AND DRY.

NEXT TROF MOVES INTO THE WESTERN U.S. SPREADING SOUTHWEST FLOW
ACROSS THE AREA FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.  THIS WILL SHIFT THE DRY
LINE BACK TO THE EAST INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS...THOUGH BY FRIDAY AS
THE TROF AXIS APPROACHES...WE COULD START TO SEE OUR FIRST POTENTIAL
MINOR COOLING AND CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE WESTERN
AREAS.  ECMWF IS SLOWER AND FARTHER NORTH WITH THE TROF...SO THIS
FAR OUT ITS DIFFICULT TO SAY.  GOING GRIDS HAVE SLIGHTLY COOLING
TEMPS WITH CLIMATOLOGICAL ISOLATED POPS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS FOR
FRIDAY...WHICH LOOKS GOOD FOR NOW. -KT

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH MIDDAY SATURDAY. EXPECT
AN INCREASED CHANCE OF TSRA LATE SAT AFTERNOON...AFTER 21Z AT KCOS
AND KPUB...AS MOISTURE INCREASES. FORECAST SOUNDINGS SUGGEST SOME
ERRATIC AND GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS POSSIBLE WITH ANY STORMS LATE SAT
AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. BY SAT NIGHT...WILL SEE INCREASED CLOUD
COVER OVR THE ERN PLAINS...WITH SOME POTENTIAL FOR MVFR
CIGS...PARTICULARLY ALONG THE SOUTHERN FRONT RANGE AND VCNTY KCOS. ROSE

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL...EAST
CENTRAL...SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST COLORADO.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP THIS
AFTERNOON OVER THE MOUNTAINS...MOVING EASTWARD TO THE ADJACENT PLAINS
BY LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE MAIN THREATS FROM THESE STORMS
WILL BE CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING...WIND GUSTS TO 45 MPH...AND SMALL
HAIL. HOWEVER...OVER THE PALMER DIVIDE AND ALONG AND JUST EAST OF
INTERSTATE 25...A COUPLE STORMS COULD BECOME SEVERE WITH QUARTER
SIZE HAIL AND WIND GUSTS TO 60 MPH.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY

THE THREAT FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST
MOUNTAINS AND PLAINS SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY AS A COLD FRONT
WAVERS NORTH AND SOUTH ACROSS THE AREA EACH DAY. TO THE NORTH OF THE
FRONT...EASTERLY UPSLOPE FLOW WILL INCREASE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND
BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. SOUTH OF
THE FRONT...WARM AND DRY AIR WILL SPREAD UP FROM THE DESERT SOUTHWEST.

THE EXACT POSITION OF THE FRONT EACH DAY IS STILL SOMEWHAT
UNCERTAIN AND WILL DETERMINE THE AREAS AT GREATEST RISK FOR SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS. AT THIS TIME...THERE WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS ALL OF THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS ON
SUNDAY...WITH THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE EASTERN
MOUNTAINS BY EARLY AFTERNOON...THEN SPREADING EASTWARD ACROSS THE
SOUTHEAST PLAINS LATE IN THE AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY EVENING.

WARM AND DRY AIR WILL SPREAD ACROSS MOST OF SOUTHEAST COLORADO ON
MONDAY SHIFTING ANY POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
NORTHWARD...TO ALONG THE PALMER DIVIDE AND ACROSS KIOWA COUNTY.
THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH SOUTHEAST COLORADO AGAIN MONDAY
NIGHT SPREADING THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER ACROSS ALL OF
SOUTHEAST COLORADO FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS...AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL...WILL
BE THE PRIMARY THREATS WITH ANY SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP.
DANGEROUS CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING WILL BE A THREAT WITH ALL
THUNDERSTORMS.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET REPORTING CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS WILL BE
POSSIBLE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING ALONG AND EAST OF
INTERSTATE 25.
