AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
1126 AM MST FRI FEB 22 2013

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 427 AM MST FRI FEB 22 2013

...SNOW FOR THE SOUTHERN TIER...

CURRENTLY...LOW CIGS/AREAS OF FOG BANKED UP AGAINST THE SOUTHERN
FRONT RANGE WHILE AN AREA OF WAVE CLOUDS HAVE DEVELOPED EAST OF THE
SOUTHERN SANGRES. A DISTURBANCES IN THE NW FLOW AT MIDLEVELS WAS
NOTED IN THE WAT VAP IMGY OVER IDAHO...AND WAS DROPPING SOUTHEAST.
CLOUDS WERE HAVING A SIGNIFICANT EFFECT ON THE TEMPS...WITH 20S
WHERE IT IS CLOUDY AND TEENS AND SINGLE DIGITS WHERE SKIES WERE LESS
CLOUDY. A VERY SHARP GRADIENT WAS NOTED AT 2 AM OVER NORTHERN EL
PASO COUNTY WHERE SINGLE DIGITS WERE OCCURRING AT THE USAFA WHILE FT
CARSON WAS IN THE 20S.

THE DISTURBANCE IN IDAHO WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK SOUTHEAST AND THIS
FORCING IS LIKELY GOING TO BRING SOME SNOW TO QUITE A FEW AREAS OF
THE FCST AREA. AREAS MOST LIKELY TO SEE SNOW WILL BE THE
MTNS...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE CONTDVD AND THE SOUTHERN MTN RANGES. THE
RATON MESA IS ALSO GOING TO LIKELY SEE SNOW. IT WAS ALREADY SNOWING
OVER THE CONTDVD PER WEB CAMS/HI ELEVATION OBS AND THIS ACTIVITY WILL
GRADUALLY SPREAD EAST-SOUTHEAST AT THE DAY PROGRESSES. ON THE
PLAINS...THE BIG WINNERS SHOULD BE AREAS FROM
WALSENBURG/TRINIDAD/RATON MESA AREA WHERE A FEW INCHES WILL BE
POSSIBLE. SOUTHERN MTNS (WETS/S SANGRES) WILL ALSO DO WELL WITH
3-6". THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD LAST INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS BEFORE
DECREASING FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST WITH TIME.

SOME LIGHT PRECIP WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE IN PUEBLO AND COLORADO
SPRINGS WITH TRACE TO 1" AMOUNTS POSSIBLE. TELLER COUNTY COULD SEE A
COUPLE OF INCHES.

TEMPS TONIGHT WILL BE COLD WITH LOWS IN THE TEENS PLAINS...AND +/-
SINGLE DIGITS IN THE VALLEYS/MTNS RESPECTIVELY.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 427 AM MST FRI FEB 22 2013

...CONTINUED UNSETTLED INTO THE NEXT WORK WEEK...

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...THANKFULLY...GFS AND ECMWF MODELS ARE A BIT
CLOSER THAN THEY WERE JUST YESTERDAY...BUT DIFFERENCES REMAIN ON THE
PATH OF THE NEXT SYSTEM TO AFFECT COLORADO. A BRIEF BREAK FOR THE
FIRST HALF OF SAT AS THE FLOW ALOFT BECOMES MORE WESTERLY AHEAD OF
THE NEXT SYSTEM. WARMING AIR ALOFT AND WESTERLY DOWNSLOPE FLOW
SHOULD HELP BOOST TEMPS ACROSS THE PLAINS INTO THE MID 40S TO AROUND
50 F. THE SYSTEM STARTS TO DRAW MOISTURE UP INTO WESTERN CO AND THE
CONTDVD STARTING SAT AFTN...BUT THEN THE MODELS DIVERGE A BIT. THE
ECMWF CONTINUES TO HOLD ONTO A MORE SOUTHERN PATH FOR THE UPPER
TROUGH...SWINGING A CLOSED LOW ACROSS THE 4 CORNERS ON SUNDAY. THE
06Z RUN OF THE GFS STILL SWEEPS THE OPEN UPPER TROUGH ACROSS THE
STATE IN THE SAME TIME FRAME...BUT THE BRUNT OF THE ENERGY IS
FURTHER NORTH EVEN THOUGH THE LATEST MODEL RUN DID EDGE THIS FEATURE
EVER SO SLIGHTLY MORE SOUTH. THIS SYSTEM HAS THE ABILITY TO BRING
SIGNIFICANT SNOW TO THE MTS AND LIGHTER BUT WIDESPREAD AMOUNTS TO
THE REST OF THE FORECAST AREA AS THE SFC COLD FRONT DROPS SOUTH OF
THE PALMER DVD BETWEEN 06Z-09Z SUN. CURRENT POP GRIDS AND SNOW
AMOUNT GRIDS ARE LEANING TOWARDS A POSSIBLE HIGHLIGHT FOR THE HIGHER
TERRAIN...BUT SINCE THIS IS LEAKING INTO THE 4TH PERIOD...AND THERE
IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY ON THE PATH...WILL HOLD OFF AND ALLOW THE
NEXT SHIFT TO LOOK AT ANOTHER MODEL RUN. WHETHER NORTH OR
SOUTH...BOTH MODELS SWING THIS SYSTEM ACROSS COLORADO THROUGH
SUNDAY...WITH IT THEN EXITING EAST OF THE STATE BY 12Z MON MORNING.
A COUPLE OF THINGS TO NOTE...LOOK FOR A 20 DEGREE DROP IN TEMPS ON
SUNDAY AS THE COLD AIR RUSHES IN...AND N-NW WINDS ACROSS THE PLAINS
ON SUNDAY ARE EXPECTED TO BE STRONG AND GUSTY AT TIMES.

MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...THE UPPER SYSTEM MOVES OFF TO THE EAST AND
BRISK NW FLOW ALOFT THEN SETTLES IN ACROSS THE ROCKY MT REGION FOR
THE NEXT WORK WEEK. BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS MODELS INDICATE A COOL
BUT DRY DAY ON MONDAY...THEN THE NEXT UPPER DISTURBANCE ROLLS ACROSS
COLORADO ON TUE. BOTH MODELS HAVE LATCHED ONTO THIS FEATURE...AND
THIS WAVE NOW LOOKS TO BE A BIT MORE SIGNIFICANT THAN PREVIOUSLY
THOUGHT. FOR NOW...WILL KEEP MUCH OF THE PCPN TIED TO THE HIGHER
TERRAIN AND SLIGHTLY MORE MILD TEMPS FOR THE PLAINS ON TUE...BUT
WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF POPS GET ENHANCED AS THE EVENT NEARS. THE
DISTURBANCE CLEARS OUT WED MORNING FOR ANOTHER INTERIM DRY
DAY...THEN MODELS HINT AT ANOTHER WAVE FOR THU. FOR NOW...THIS FAR
OUT...WILL KEEP THINGS DRY...BUT THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE
BENEFICIAL MOISTURE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. MOORE
