.DISCUSSION...

PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND MUCH
OF THE OVERNIGHT HOURS WITH ALL ELEMENTS COMING TOGETHER FOR LARGE
HAIL...TORNADOES AND DAMAGING WINDS. MOST OF THE SEVERE STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO ALONG AND JUST SOUTH OF THE INTERSTATE 30 CORRIDOR...

FRONT FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AS IT MOVES NORTH OUT OF
THE AREA. BY 06Z...A DRY INTRUSION WILL BEGIN TO ARRIVE FROM THE
SOUTHWEST AND THIS SHOULD PUT AN END TO MOST OF THE CONVECTION BY 12Z.

ON WEDNESDAY...A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE FOUR STATE REGION...
FOLLOWED BY STRONG WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS. DRY AND COOLER WEATHER
EXPECTED THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. NEXT SYSTEM DIGS INTO THE SOUTHERN
ROCKIES FRIDAY NIGHT...BRINGING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORM
TO THE FOUR STATE REGION OVER THE WEEKEND. DRY AND COOLER WEATHER
EXPECTED FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...
MVFR CEILINGS ACROSS THE REGION ARE FORECAST TO IMPROVE AS DIURNAL
MIXING ALLOWS FOR EROSION OF THE CLOUD DECK BY 00Z. INCREASED SOUTH
WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS WITH HIGHER GUSTS PERSISTING THROUGH 06Z ACROSS
MOST LOCATIONS. AN UPPER-LEVEL DISTURBANCE IS FORECAST TO INITIATE
CONVECTION BY 21Z...SOME STORMS CAPABLE OF  PRODUCING DAMAGING
WINDS...TURBULENCE...AND HEAVY RAINFALL. THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO
DIMINISH AFTER 06Z WEDNESDAY WITH MVFR CEILINGS PERSISTING THROUGH
