AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
314 PM MDT SAT JUN 22 2013

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 257 PM MDT SAT JUN 22 2013

...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS CONTINUE...

CURRENTLY...A SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS WYOMING
WITH THE BASE DOWN ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL COLORADO.  THIS HAS LED TO
CUMULUS DEVELOPMENT FROM NEAR GUNNISON NORTHEAST THROUGH THE PALMER
DIVIDE.  INSTABILITY IS WEAK WHICH SHOULD HELP KEEP THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY FROM DEVELOPING THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.  SMOKE FROM THE
WEST FORK COMPLEX IS MAKING ITS DAILY SHIFT EASTWARD AND IMPACT MOST
OF THE REGION...ESPECIALLY THE SAN LUIS VALLEY...PUEBLO AND COLORADO
SPRINGS.  TEMPERATURES ARE WARM WITH MID TO UPPER 90S ACROSS MUCH OF
THE LOWER ELEVATIONS.  WINDS HAVE BEEN GUSTY...WITH 25 TO 30 KTS FOR
AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF I-25 AND HUMIDITY VALUES HAVE FALLEN TO LESS
THAN 10 PERCENT FOR MUCH OF THE AREA.

TONIGHT...THE SHORTWAVE OVER WYOMING WILL LIFT OFF TO THE NORTHEAST
OVERNIGHT.  A WEAK COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO DROP SOUTH ACROSS THE
EASTERN PLAINS BY 06Z.  FOLLOWED A BLEND OF THE VARIOUS WRF
SOLUTIONS AS FAR AS FRONTAL PROGRESS.  THE HIGH RES SOLUTIONS STALL
THE FRONT FROM NEAR COLORADO SPRINGS...SOUTHEAST TO NEAR
SPRINGFIELD.  WINDS NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN NORTHERLY
WHILE AREAS SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY MAINTAIN THEIR BREEZY SOUTHWEST
CONDITIONS.  THIS WILL ALSO KEEP HUMIDITY VALUES FROM RECOVERING
MUCH SOUTH OF THE FRONT...WHILE MOISTURE POOLS TO THE NORTH.
OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL REMAIN MILD WITH 50S TO 60S FOR THE PLAINS.
SMOKE WILL IMPACT THE REGION THROUGH THE EVENING...WITH IMPROVING
CONDITIONS BEHIND THE FRONT AS NORTH WINDS SHIFT THE SMOKE SOUTH AND
MIX IT OUT.

SUNDAY...ANOTHER DANGEROUS FIRE WEATHER DAY ON STORE FOR MUCH OF
SOUTH CENTRAL COLORADO.  THE FRONT THAT IS STALLED OVER THE PLAINS
WILL EVENTUALLY TRANSITION SOUTHWARD DURING THE MORNING HOURS WITH
SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW DEVELOPING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.  HIGH RES
SOLUTIONS KEEP A PUSH OF SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ACROSS THE RATON MESA
AREA WHICH WILL LIKELY KEEP THE EAST PEAK FIRE ACTIVE.  THEREFORE
HAVE THE HIGHEST FIRE WEATHER DANGER OVER THE SAN JUANS...LA
GARITAS...THE SAN LUIS VALLEY...AND EASTERN MOUNTAINS.  LESS
CONFIDENCE OVER EASTERN HUERFANO AND WESTERN LAS ANIMAS COUNTIES
WHICH SHOULD BE MONITORED...AND DEPEND ON HOW FAR EAST THE
SOUTHWESTERLY PUSH MAKES IT.  EXTREME CAUTION IS ADVISED OVER THIS
REGION DUE TO THE DANGEROUS FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS.  IN
ADDITION...THERE IS A SLIM SEVERE WEATHER RISK OVER KIOWA AND
PROWERS COUNTIES SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.  MOISTURE POOLED
BEHIND THE FRONT AND WEAK ENERGY IN THE SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL
LEAD TO THIS CHANCE.  DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL WILL BE POSSIBLE
WITH ANY STORMS THAT DO FORM...BUT CURRENT POPS ARE ONLY ABOUT 10 TO
15 PERCENT.  THIS WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED.  MOZLEY

.LONG TERM...(SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 257 PM MDT SAT JUN 22 2013

MAINLY DRY...SW FLOW ALOFT WL CONTINUE OVR THE AREA SUN NIGHT AND
MON. WL GO WITH A DRY FORECAST FOR MON ALONG WITH BREEZY
CONDITIONS...ONCE AGAIN LEADING TO THE POTENTIAL FOR CRITICAL FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS. WL ISSUE A FIRE WX WATCH FOR THE I-25
CORRIDOR...THE ERN MTS...THE SAN LUIS VALLEY AND THE SOUTHWEST CO
MTNS...WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE RH AND WIND CRITERIA COULD BE MET...ALONG
WITH FUELS BEING DRY IN THESE AREAS. ON TUE THE FLOW ALOFT BECOMES
MORE WESTERLY BUT THERE IS STILL LITTLE MOISTURE AND WL GO WITH
ANOTHER DRY AND HOT FORECAST. IN GENERAL...THE SFC WINDS ON TUE
LOOK A BIT LIGHTER AND THUS THERE SHOULD BE LESS OF A THREAT FOR
CRITICAL FIRE WX CONDITIONS.

WED AN UPR RIDGE IS FORECAST TO BE CENTERED OVR SRN CO AND NRN
NM...WHICH THEN SHIFTS WESTWARD OVER UT AND AZ FOR THU THRU SAT.
A LITTLE MSTR TRAPPED UNDER THE RIDGE COULD LEAD TO MAINLY A FEW
MOUNTAIN SHOWERS/TSTMS. WITH LIGHTER WINDS EXPECTED UNDER THE
RIDGE...THERE WL BE LESS OF A CHANCE FOR FIRE WX CONCERNS. TEMPS
WL REMAIN QUITE WARM EACH DAY.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SUNDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 257 PM MDT SAT JUN 22 2013

VFR CONDITIONS AT ALL TERMINALS THROUGH MUCH OF THE FORECAST PERIOD.
SOUTHWEST WINDS WITH WIDESPREAD GUSTS 25-30 KTS POSSIBLE AT ALL
TERMINALS THROUGH EARLY EVENING. SMOKE FROM FIRES OVER THE
CONTINENTAL DIVIDE WILL ALSO MOVE OVER AREA TERMINALS BY LATE
