.DISCUSSION...
207 AM MDT SAT OCT 8 2011

AN ACTIVE OVERNIGHT WITH +SVR TSRA AND HYDRO ISSUES. THE ONGOING
PRECIP IS AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING SHORTWAVE TROUGH COMING AROUND A
PARENT UPPER LOW THAT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION LATER TODAY. AT
THIS TIME IT APPEARS THE BULK OF THE HEAVIER ACTIVITY WILL EXIT TO
THE NORTH AND EAST OF THE CWA BY 18Z WITH SPOTTY ACTIVITY ACROSS
THE FAR NORTHERN AND ERN ZONES LATER TODAY. WVAP IMAGERY AND
VARIOUS 00Z NWP DEPICT A DRYSLOT COUPLED WITH ISEN DOWNGLIDE AND
DECREASING MOISTURE TRANSPORT/MIXING RATIOS DEVELOPING ACROSS WRN
KS LATER TODAY... HENCE THE BETTER PRECIP CHANCES IN THE NRN AND ERN
ZONES AFTER 18Z. FURTHERMORE A COLD FRONT WILL RESIDE ACROSS THE
WRN THIRD OF THE CWA WITH A SFC LOW MOVING UP ALONG THE FRONT. THE
PLACEMENT OF THE FRONT WILL DIVIDE THE REGION REGARDING
TEMPERATURES AND CLOUD COVER. CURRENT THINKING IS MORNING RESIDUAL
CLOUD COVER SHOULD ERODE IN THE WARM SECTOR ALLOWING FOR
RELATIVELY MILD TEMPS AND LIMITED DESTABILIZATION ALLOWING FOR
PRECIP/TSRA CHANCES ACROSS THE EAST/NORTHEAST ZONES. THE FRONT
SHOULD SLOWLY ADVANCE ACROSS THE CWA BEHIND THE FRONTAL WAVE AND
S/WV TROUGH LATER THIS EVENING.

AFTER THE CURRENT WAVE MOVES THROUGH THE PARENT LOW REMAINS OVER
THE ROCKIES WITH AN ADDITIONAL NEGATIVELY TILTED S/WV TROUGH TO
MOVE THROUGH ON SUNDAY...DEPARTING ON MONDAY. AS A RESULT I LEFT
THE INHERITED PRECIP CHANCES IN THE GRIDS BUT DID TRIM BACK POPS
AND TIMING ON MONDAY.

BEYOND MONDAY THE UPPER LOW SLOWLY LIFTS TO THE NORTHEAST ALLOWING
FOR A MILD AND DRY TREND RIGHT INTO NEXT WEEKEND. DAY 4-7
COLLABORATED GRIDS WERE LEFT INTACT.
