AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DENVER/BOULDER CO
542 PM MDT FRI JUL 26 2013

.AVIATION...NEW TAFS ARE OUT THE DOOR AND HAVE NOT INCLUDED
THUNDER IN ANY OF THEM THIS EVENING. HOWEVER...WATCHING A STRONG
THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX MOVING SOUTH-SOUTHEAST ACROSS NORTHERN WELD
COUNTY AT THIS TIME AS WELL AS A CONVERGENCE BOUNDARY JUST EAST OF
KDEN. SUSPECT THE NORTHERN STORM WILL STAY AWAY FROM THE LOCAL
TERMINALS BUT NOT CERTAIN SOMETHING WON'T FIRE ON THE BOUNDARY
NEAR KDEN. WILL CONTINUE MONITORING THE SITUATION AND UPDATE TAFS
AS NECESSARY.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 354 PM MDT FRI JUL 26 2013/

SHORT TERM...AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY IS SLOWLY DRIFTING WEST ACROSS
EASTERN COLORADO AND MAY STALL OUT SOON. A FEW STORMS HAVE BEEN
TRIGGERED BY IT AND ARE PRODUCING REINFORCING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES.
THIS MAY TRIGGER A FEW MORE STORMS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING HOURS. CAPES ARE RUNNING AROUND 500-1000 J/KG ALONG THE
FRONT RANGE AND ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS. BASED ON THE STRENGTH
OF THE CONVECTION IN THE FOOTHILLS AND THE LIMITED CAPE...WOULD
EXPECT STORMS TO STAY BELOW SEVERE LIMITS. FOR THE REST OF THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING...EXPECTING SCATTERED STORMS TO CONTINUE IN
THE MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS WITH ISOLATED STORMS ALONG THE FRONT
RANGE. NOT EXPECTING MUCH IF ANY STORMS BEHIND THE OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY ON THE EASTERN PLAINS WHERE COOLER AIR HAS STABILIZED THE
AIRMASS.

FOR SATURDAY...MOISTURE INCREASES WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES
CLIMBING ABOVE AN INCH AGAIN ALONG THE FRONT RANGE AND ACROSS THE
EASTERN PLAINS. EASTERLY WINDS WILL PREVAIL SATURDAY AS A SURFACE
HIGH SLIDES SOUTH ACROSS THE PLAINS STATES. THIS WILL BRING SLIGHTLY
HIGHER DEW POINTS...BUT KEEP THE LOWER LEVELS ON THE COOL SIDE WHICH
WILL AGAIN LIMIT THE INSTABILITY AND POSSIBLY CAP THE LOWER
ELEVATIONS. WILL GO WILL SCATTERED STORMS IN THE MOUNTAINS AND
FOOTHILLS SATURDAY AFTERNOON WITH ISOLATED STORMS ACROSS THE LOWER
TERRAIN. MAY TAKE UNTIL THE EARLY EVENING TO BREAK THE CAP AND
EXPECT A BETTER CHANCE FOR STORMS LATE IN THE DAY. HIGHS WILL REMAIN
BELOW NORMAL WITH READING IN THE LOWER TO MID 80S.

LONG TERM...SHORTWAVE TROUGH CARRIED ALONG BY ZONAL MID-LEVEL FLOW
ROUNDING THE TOP OF A FLAT UPPER RIDGE CENTERED OVER THE SOUTHERN
ROCKIES IS PROGGED TO PASS OVER COLORADO ON SUNDAY. DEEP PLUME OF
MOIST/UNSTABLE SUBTROPICAL AIR CAUGHT UP IN THIS FLOW IS
DISPLACED EASTWARD OVER THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE DAY SUNDAY.
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES EXCEED AN INCH DURING THE PERIOD AND
THE LIFT GENERATED BY DIABATIC HEATING AND THE PASSING SHORTWAVE
SHOULD RESULT IN SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWER/T-STORM COVERAGE
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. THE MTNS AND FRONT RANGE
FOOTHILLS APPEAR TO BE IN THE BEST POSITION TO RECEIVE MEASURABLE
RAINFALL...WITH PCPN AMOUNTS DROPPING OFF AS YOU ADVANCE EASTWARD
ACROSS THE PLAINS. STORMS WILL BE MOVING EWRD AT 15-25 KTS...SO
WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAINFALL PROBABLY NOT AS ISSUE. ALTHOUGH WOULD
NOT RULE OUT A FEW STORMS CAPABLE OF 1 TO 1.5 INCH RAINFALL
AMOUNTS IN MTN AND FTHL LOCALES. BURN SCARS ONCE AGAIN MOST SUSCEPTIBLE
TO THESE RAIN AMOUNTS. OTHERWISE A COOLER DAY WITH HIGHS AS MUCH
AS 10-15 DEG F BELOW AVERAGE FOR THE DATE UNDER PLENTY OF CLOUD
COVER. STORMS EXPECTED TO LINGER OVERNIGHT...MAINLY ON THE FAR
PLAINS...WITH RAIN TOTALS UNDER A HALF INCH.

ON MONDAY...UPPER RIDGE REGAINS ITS STRENGTH AS IT RETROGATES
SLIGHTLY WESTWARD OVER UTAH. THIS PLACES THE FORECAST AREA UNDER
MORE OF A NORTHWEST FLOW WHICH LOOKS SOMEWHAT DRIER AND SLIGHTLY
LESS UNSTABLE. THEREFORE STORM CHANCES SHOULD DECREASE ON MONDAY
AND WITH MORE SUNSHINE...SHOULD SEE SLIGHTLY WARMER TEMPERATURES.

FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD...AIRMASS GRADUALLY DRIES
AND WARMS EACH DAY WITH THE UPPER RIDGE CONTINUING TO BUILD TO
OUR WEST. TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE PERIOD ARE FORECAST TO REMAIN
AT OR SLIGHTLY BELOW AVERAGE. RAIN CHANCES WILL CONTINUE TO
DECREASE...WITH LATE DAY STORMS LARGELY CONFINED TO THE HIGHER
TERRAIN.

AVIATION...THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH
THE 03Z. HEAVY RAIN...SMALL HAIL AND WIND GUSTS TO 40 KNOTS WILL
POSSIBLE WITH THE THUNDERSTORMS. EASTERLY WINDS WILL TURN CLOCKWISE
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS AND SETTLE SOUTHERLY AROUND
06Z. WINDS WILL BECOME LIGHT AROUND SUNRISE AND BECOME EASTERLY BY
18Z. ONCE AGAIN THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR STORMS AT THE
DENVER AIRPORTS SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

HYDROLOGY...SCATTERED STORMS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH EARLY EVENING.
THREAT FOR FLASHING FLOODING TODAY IS VERY LOW DUE TO A SLIGHTLY
DRIER AIRMASS...WEAK INSTABILITY AND STORMS MOVING SOUTHEAST AT 15
MPH. MORE STORMS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE WEEKEND...HOWEVER STORMS
ARE EXPECTED TO BE MOVING AT 10 TO 15 MPH AND WILL KEEP THE THROUGH
FOR FLASH FLOODING LOW.
