AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER/BOULDER CO
320 PM MDT SAT AUG 6 2011

.SHORT TERM...WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT AND DRIER AIR HAVE MOVED INTO THE
REGION.  A FEW SHOWERS ARE STILL POPPING UP OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN
THIS AFTERNOON WHICH WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING.  DEW POINTS
ALONG THE URBAN CORRIDOR HAVE DROPPED INTO THE UPPER 20S AND LOWER
30S WITH 40S AND LOWER 50S FARTHER TO THE EAST.  THE DRY AIR AT THE
LOW LEVELS WILL KEEP VERY MUCH PRECIPITATION FROM REACHING THE
GROUND.  WITH THE FLAT RIDGE IN PLACE OVER THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES...
DIURNAL HEATING IS ABOUT THE ONLY DRIVER FOR SHOWER ACTIVITY ON
SUNDAY.  WITH FURTHER DRYING EXPECTED FOR SUNDAY...EVEN LESS SHOWER
ACTVITY.  A FEW DEGREES WARMING ARE ALSO EXPECTED WHICH WILL FURTHER
STABILIZE THE AIRMASS.  ANOTHER DAY IN THE 90S WILL BE THE MAIN
RESULT.

.LONG TERM...A DRIER...YET STRONGER WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW PATTERN
WILL TAKE HOLD ACROSS REGION THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK.  THIS MEANS
VERY LITTLE IF ANY THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED FROM THE FRONT
RANGE WESTWARD INTO THE MOUNTAINS. THIS PATTERN WILL RESULT IN A FEW
WAVES AND ASSOCIATED FRONTS WHICH WILL MAINLY EFFECT THE FAR
NORTHEAST PLAINS. THIS AREA WILL BE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE FOR TO HIGHER
MOISTURE LEVELS AND LATE DAY OR MORE LIKELY OVERNIGHT STORMS.
CURRENT WEATHER GRIDS REFLECT THIS CURRENT THINKING SO ONLY MINOR
CHANCES EXPECTED. GIVEN THE STRONGER FLOW ALOFT THERE IS A LOW
THREAT OF SEVERE STORMS GIVEN MID LEVEL FLOW OF 40-50KT. LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE WILL ALSO BE HIGHER IN THE EASTERN PARTS LEADING TO GREATER
INSTABILITY. THERE IS A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WHICH MOVES
SOUTHWESTWARD ON MONDAY NIGHT AND EARLY TUESDAY WHICH WOULD INCREASE
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ON THE PLAINS BUT THIS WOULD ALSO INCREASE THE
STABILITY WITH COOLER LOW LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE. ISOLATED POPS
SHOULD SUFFICE FOR NOW.

THE NORTHWEST FLOW WEAKENS LATER IN THE WEEK AS HIGH
PRESSURE RIDGE ALOFT BUILDS BACK INTO THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN REGION.
THIS MAY ALLOW A BIT MORE MOISTURE TO DEVELOP FURTHER WEST LEADING
TO A SLIGHT CHANCE OF STORMS OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND ADJACENT PLAINS
BY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...ONLY ISOLATED STORMS EXPECTED THIS EVENING.  SLIGHT
CHANCE OF WIND GUSTS TO 40 KNOTS FOR A BRIEF PERIOD IF STORMS
DEVELOP.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...WITH DRIER AIR IN PLACE...THE FLOODING THREAT IS LOW.
STILL SOME POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED STORMS...BUT RAINFALL RATES WILL
BE LESS THAN A HALF INCH PER HOUR.

.BOU WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE
