Area forecast discussion, Jun 6, 3:14 PM MDT, 1 hour 49 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO 314 PM MDT SUN JUN 6 2010 .SHORT TERM... ...SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE ALONG I-25 THIS EVENING... ...VERY HOT AND DRIER ON MONDAY... AIR MASS OVER MUCH OF THE AREA HAS BECOME VERY UNSTABLE THIS AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY ALONG AND JUST WEST OF I-25 WHERE LAPS AND SPC ANALYSIS SUGGEST CAPES IN THE 2000-3000 J/KG RANGE. STILL SOME CIN ON THE PLAINS AND LOWER ARKANSAS VALLEY AT 20Z...THOUGH QUICK LOOK OUTSIDE SUGGESTS CAP IS BREAKING ALONG THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS SLOPES AS NUMEROUS TCU HAVE BEGUN TO DEVELOP. FAIRLY STRONG TSRA ALREADY FIRING OVER THE SAN LUIS VALLEY AT 20Z...AND WOULD EXPECT STORMS TO INTENSIFY AS THEY ENCOUNTER MORE UNSTABLE AIR OVER THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS. MAIN LIMITING FACTOR FOR SEVERE STORMS IS RATHER WEAK 0-6KM SHEAR...WITH VALUES ONLY AROUND 30 KNOTS...AS STRONGER UPPER LEVEL WINDS ARE OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE STATE. STILL...GIVEN THE STRONG INSTABILITY...WILL LIKELY SEE AT LEAST A FEW SEVERE STORMS OVER THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS AND I-25 CORRIDOR THROUGH THIS EVENING. AXIS OF DEEP INSTABILITY IS FAIRLY NARROW...WHICH WILL LIMIT THE EASTWARD EXTENT OF STRONG CONVECTION THIS EVENING...ESPECIALLY CLOSE TO THE KS BORDER. STORMS SHOULD END TOWARD MIDNIGHT...WITH GRADUAL CLEARING BY MORNING. ON MONDAY...SLIGHT INCREASE IN WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT IS FORECAST TO MIX TO THE SURFACE BY AFTERNOON...SHOVING DEEPER LOW LEVEL MOISTURE EAST TO THE KS BORDER. GFS DROPS DEWPOINTS INTO THE 20S OVER MUCH OF THE AREA BY 00Z...WHILE NAM IS AROUND 10F HIGHER WITH MAINLY 30S. AS A RESULT...NAM DEVELOPS SOME ISOLATED HIGH BASED...MAINLY DRY TSRA OVER THE AREA IN THE AFTERNOON...WHILE THE GFS IS DRY. KEPT SOME VERY LOW POPS OVER THE MOUNTAINS TO ACCOUNT FOR THE NAM SCENARIO...BUT WENT WITH A DRY FORECAST OVER THE WESTERN VALLEYS AND I-25 CORRIDOR. LEFT SOME LOW POPS ALONG THE KS BORDER...WHERE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IS SLOW TO MIX OUT...ESPECIALLY FAR SOUTHEAST CORNER. WITH THE INCREASE IN DOWNSLOPE FLOW AND WARMING AT 700 MB...SHOULD BE A VERY HOT DAY...ESPECIALLY OVER THE PLAINS...WHERE READINGS IN THE 95-10F RANGE ARE LIKELY OVER THE PLAINS. COMBINATION OF INCREASING WINDS...LOW RH AND HIGH HAINES WILL INCREASE THE FIRE DANGER OVER MUCH OF THE AREA...THOUGH WIND SPEEDS WILL REMAIN JUST BELOW CRITICAL HIGHLIGHT THRESHOLD. --PETERSEN .LONG TERM... (MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY) COMPLEX FORECAST ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS THROUGH MID WEEK WITH MOISTURE AND BOUNDARIES MOVING ACROSS THE AREA OWNING TO POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. MONDAY NIGHT-WEDNESDAY NIGHT... SUBTLE DIFFERENCES IN MODELS LEADS TO BIG DIFFERENCES IN SENSIBLE WX AND HAVE FOLLOWED CLOSER TO THE NAM SOLUTION THROUGH THIS PERIOD WITH ITS BETTER HANDLING OF TERRAIN FEATURES. AT ANY RATE...MODERATE WESTERLY FLOW PERSISTS ACROSS THE REGION WITH AN EMBEDDED SHORT WAVE MOVING ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER OF STATES MONDAY NIGHT ALLOWING FOR BACKDOOR FRONT TO SLIDE ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS LATE MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY MORNING. COLD AIR LAGS WELL BEHIND THE FRONT...HOWEVER WILL SEE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE POOLING BEHIND BOUNDARY WITH A STRAY SHOWER NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION OVERNIGHT. WILL ALSO SEE STRATUS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE PLAINS AS THE LOW ATMOSPHERE SATURATES THROUGH EARLY TUESDAY MORNING. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO BUILD ACROSS THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS ALLOWING FOR ENHANCED LOW LEVEL UPSLOPE ALONG WITH AMPLE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WITH DEW PTS IN THE UPPER 40S TO UPPER 50S TO REMAIN IN PLACE ACROSS THE SE PLAINS TUESDAY AFTERNOON. LATEST NAM INDICATING A MINOR PV LOBE CIRCULATING AROUND UPPER HIGH ACROSS NORTHERN NEW MEXICO HELPING TO INITIATE CONVECTION...HOWEVER WILL LIKELY BE A ENHANCED UPSLOPE AND LATE AFTERNOON HEATING OWNING TO ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS. MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATING CAPES BETWEEN 1500-2500 J/KG ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS ALONG WITH BULK SHEARS OF 30-45 KTS...OWNING TO POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE STORMS PRODUCING LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS AND I-25 CORRIDOR INITIALLY. STORMS EXPECTED TO ROLL OUT ACROSS THE FAR EASTERN PLAINS AND HAVE KEPT ISOLATED POPS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS EXPECTED ACROSS THE PLAINS ONCE AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL RETURN FLOW KEEPS LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IN PLACE WITH STORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS IN THE AFTERNOON SPREADING ACROSS THE FAR SE PLAINS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT. NOT MUCH CHANGE IN THE FORECAST OUT WEST WITH MAINLY DRY AND HOT CONDITIONS TO PERSIST THROUGH THE PERIOD. THURSDAY-SUNDAY...THE 06 12Z ECMWF HAS NOW COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT WITH THE GFS...THOUGH BOTH MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE RUN TO RUN DIFFERENCES AND HAVE STARTED TO TREND TO A COOLER AND WETTER FORECAST FOR THE WEEKEND. AT ANY RATE...WARM AND DRY SW FLOW AHEAD OF EASTERN PAC SYSTEM DIGGING ACROSS THE WEST COAST THURSDAY WILL ALLOW FOR ANOTHER HOT DAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 90S TO AROUND 100 EXPECTED ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS FOR THURSDAY. MODELS NOW DIG AN UNSEASONABLY STRONG UPPER LOW ACROSS THE DESERT SW ON SATURDAY BEFORE SLOWLY LIFTING THE SYSTEM OUT ACROSS THE ROCKIES LATE SUNDAY AND MONDAY. THIS ALLOWS FOR COOL SFC HIGH PRESSURE TO BUILD ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS WITH BETTER CHANCES OF WIDESPREAD PRECIP AS SYSTEM MOVES ACROSS THE STATE. LATEST MODELS INDICATING H7 TEMPS DROPPING TO BETWEEN 0C AND 4C ACROSS THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY MORNING...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR HIGH ELEVATION SNOW. WILL WAIT AND SEE. -MW && .AVIATION...THREAT OF TSRA AT KCOS AND KPUB IN THE 22Z-03Z TIME FRAME...WITH BEST CHANCE FOR STORMS FROM KPUB SOUTHWARD. A SEVERE STORM WITH LARGE HAIL AND STRONG WINDS IS POSSIBLE AT BOTH SITES. AT KALS...MOST CONVECTION HAS REMAINED NORTH OF THE TERMINAL THIS AFTERNOON...THOUGH GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS ARE A POSSIBILITY THROUGH 00Z. STORMS OVER MOST OF THE AREA SHOULD END BY 06Z. EXPECT LESS IN THE WAY OF TSRA ON MON...AS WINDS BECOME WESTERLY AND PUSH MOISTURE AWAY FROM THE AREA. COULD STILL SEE ONE OR TWO HIGH BASED STORMS OVER THE MOUNTAINS...WITH ERRATIC AND GUSTY WINDS THE MAIN THREAT. && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. && 10/23
