.UPDATE...

&&

.SHORT TERM...WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWING WEAK UPPER WAVE MOVING
SOUTHEAST OVER CENTRAL COLORADO THIS MORNING. THIS WAVE ALREADY
KICKING OFF A FEW SHOWERS OVER SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF OUR CWA. THERE
SEEMS TO BE SOME SUBSIDENCE MOVING IN BEHIND THE WAVE OVER
NORTHERN COLORADO AND RUC QG MID LEVEL FIELDS SHOWING QUITE A BIT
OF DECENT OVER NORTHERN COLORADO THIS AFTERNOON. THIS MAY LIMIT
THE AMOUNT OF CONVECTION THAT OCCURS THIS AFTERNOON. THE MAJORITY
OF ACTIVITY MAY BE MORE CONFINED TO LOCATIONS OVER SOUTHERN
PORTIONS OF CWA...ESPECIALLY OVER ELBERT AND LINCOLN COUNTIES.
WILL MAKE A FEW CHANGES TO CURRENT FORECAST TO EMPHASIZE THIS.
STILL...ENOUGH MOISTURE AND MARGINAL INSTABILITY FOR AT LEAST
ISOLATED SHOWERS IN MOST LOCALES.

.AVIATION...NOT PLANNING ON MANY CHANGES TO UPCOMING TAF. NOT SURE
IF TEMPO GROUP CURRENTLY IN TAF WILL BE TOO MUCH COVERAGE AS
SUBSIDENCE FIGHTING STABILITY THIS AFTERNOON BEHIND THE UPPER
WAVE. COVERAGE MAY BE MORE ISOLATED SO WILL MAKE THE CALL CLOSER
TO 18Z ISSUANCE.
