NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
1122 AM MDT THU OCT 10 2013

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 930 AM MDT THU OCT 10 2013

UPDATED TO DELAY THE ARRIVAL OF PRECIPITATION INTO THE SAN LUIS
VALLEY...EASTERN MOUNTAINS AND THE PLAINS UNTIL AFTER 12 PM THIS
AFTERNOON. STORM SYSTEM HAS BEEN SLOW TO SPREAD PRECIPITATION
EASTWARD WITH IT CURRENTLY WORKING INTO THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE.
MEANWHILE AREAS OVER THE PLAINS HAVE GENERALLY BEEN CLEAR. THE
EXCEPTION IS A BAND OF ALTOCUMULS WHICH MAY HAVE SOME VIRGA UNDER
IT NEAR LA JUNTA. OTHERWISE THE GOING FORECAST LOOKS ON TRACK.

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 316 AM MDT THU OCT 10 2013

...STRONG FALL STORM TO IMPACT SOUTHERN COLORADO TODAY...

CURRENTLY...UPPER LEVEL LOW SWINGING INTO NORTHWEST ARIZONA...WITH
EXPANDING AREA OF PRECIP CENTERED NEAR THE 4 CORNERS. MOST PRECIP
SO FAR THIS MORNING HAS BEEN WEST OF THE CONTINENTAL
DIVIDE...THOUGH A FEW WEAK -SHRA/-TSRA HAVE RACED NORTH INTO AREAS
NEAR THE NM BORDER SINCE 09Z. OVER THE PLAINS...COLD FRONT HAS
BACKED SOUTH TOWARD THE ARKANSAS RIVER...ALLOWING SLIGHTLY
COOLER/MOISTER AIR MASS TO FILTER SOUTH ACROSS EL PASO
COUNTY...LEADING TO SOME LIGHT FOG ALONG THE PALMER DIVIDE.
FREEZING LEVEL OVER THE MOUNTAINS CURRENTLY AROUND 11K FEET...AND
EXPECT IT TO REMAIN IN THE 10K-11K RANGE BEFORE BEGINNING TO FALL
GRADUALLY BY LATE MORNING.

TODAY...UPPER LOW MOVES FROM NRN AZ THIS MORNING INTO NORTHWEST
COLORADO BY THIS EVENING...AS STRONG 120 KT UPPER JET WRAPS AROUND
THE SYSTEM AND NOSES INTO SRN COLORADO THIS AFTERNOON. STRONG
DYNAMIC AND OROGRAPHIC FORCING OVER THE SAN JUANS WILL BEGIN THIS
MORNING...CONTINUING THROUGH MID-AFTERNOON...THEN SLOWLY WANE BY
EVENING AS FLOW TURNS WESTERLY AND WEAKENS. SHOULD SEE HEAVY SNOW AT
AND ABOVE PASS LEVEL (10-11K) FEET TODAY...WITH AREAS AROUND WOLF
CREEK PASS FAVORED BY FORECAST 30 KNOT SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW. POTENTIAL
FOR SOME THUNDERSNOW AS WELL GIVEN RATHER ACTIVE LIGHTNING MAP JUST
WEST OF THE REGION EARLY THIS MORNING. CURRENT WARNING FOR THE SAN
JUANS AND ADVISORY FOR THE LA GARITAS LOOK ON TRACK. FARTHER
NORTH...HOISTED A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR THE HIGHER PEAKS OF
THE SAWATCH RANGE...AS BURST OF HEAVY SNOW AND WIND LIKELY THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS LOW MOVES BY AND FLOW BECOMES MORE W-NW.
SNOW AMOUNTS LOWER HERE THAN IN THE SAN JUANS...THOUGH HIGHER WEST
FACING SLOPES WILL LIKELY SEE SEVERAL INCHES BY LATE TONIGHT.
REMAINING MOUNTAINS AND WESTERLY VALLEYS WILL SEE SCATTERED -SHRA
AND HIGH ELEVATION -SHSN THROUGH THE DAY...ALONG WITH THE POTENTIAL
FOR AN ISOLATED -TSRA AS STRONG DYNAMIC LIFT MOVES ACROSS. WILL
LIKELY SEE AREAS OF BLOWING DUST OVER THE SAN LUIS VALLEY BY
AFTERNOON AS STRONG SOUTHWEST WINDS INCREASE.

OVER THE I-25 CORRIDOR AND PLAINS...EXPECT SURFACE FRONT TO RETREAT
NORTHWARD TODAY WITH STRONG WINDS DEVELOPING BY AFTERNOON AS BAND OF
60 KNOT 700MB FLOW WRAPS NORTHWARD ACROSS THE REGION. HIGH WIND
WARNING ON THE PLAINS MAY BE RATHER MARGINAL AS CLOUDS COULD LIMIT
MIXING SOMEWHAT...THOUGH ANY WEAK CONVECTION MAY BE ENOUGH TO MIX
STRONG WINDS TO THE SURFACE. SHOULD BE ENOUGH WIND TO PRODUCE AREAS
OF BLOWING DUST EAST OF I-25 BY AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY DRIER AREAS
ACROSS BENT AND PROWERS COUNTIES. EXPECT MAINLY ISOLATED...HIGH
BASED FAST MOVING TSRA ALONG I-25...PRODUCING QUICK BURSTS OF RAIN
AND STRONG WINDS...ESPECIALLY IN THE AFTERNOON. KEPT THE MENTION OF
SEVERE IN A FEW ZONES ALONG THE KS BORDER...THOUGH BEST LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE IS STILL PROGGED TO REMAIN IN KS. MAIN THREAT WITH ANY
DEEPER CONVECTION OVER THE FAR EAST WILL BE BE SEVERE WINDS WITH
STORM MOTIONS TO THE NORTHEAST OF 40-50 KNOTS POSSIBLE.

TONIGHT...UPPER LOW MOVES INTO THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE OVERNIGHT AS
DEEP DRY INTRUSION PUSHES INTO SOUTHERN COLORADO. EXPECT
PRECIPITATION TO END QUICKLY MOST LOCATIONS AS LOW PULLS
AWAY...EXCEPTION WILL BE OVER THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS...WHERE MOIST
NORTHWEST FLOW WILL KEEP SNOW SHOWERS AND AT LEAST LIGHT
ACCUMULATIONS GOING THROUGH THE NIGHT. STRONG WINDS WILL GRADUALLY
DIMINISH DURING THE EVENING...THOUGH BREEZY CONDITIONS WILL LINGER
INTO EARLY FRIDAY MORNING...KEEPING MIN TEMPS FROM FALLING TOO LOW
OVER THE PLAINS.

.LONG TERM...(FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 316 AM MDT THU OCT 10 2013

...COOL AND UNSETTLED THROUGH THE EXTENDED...

FIRST LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BE SPINNING OVER THE NE PANHANDLE
BY FRI MORNING...AND MOST OF THE HEAVIER PRECIP WILL BE N OF OUR
AREA. MOIST W-NW FLOW WILL KEEP SOME SHSN LINGERING OVER THE SAWATCH
RANGE...AND COULD SEE AN INCH OR TWO OF ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATION THERE
FOR THE EARLY PART OF FRIDAY. BY FIR AFTERNOON...SHOULD BE CLEARING
OUT FOR THE CENTRAL MTS. A WEAK TRAILING DISTURBANCE COULD BRING SOME
SCT SHOWERS TO THE PIKES PEAK REGION IN THE AFTERNOON...AND COULD
POSSIBLY SEE SOME LIGHT SNOW ACCUMS OVER PIKES PEAK...AND MAYBE EVEN
A FEW WET FLAKES FOR THE REST OF TELLER COUNTY BEFORE THINGS WARM UP.

SHOULD BE PLEASANT FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE WEEKEND...WITH TEMPS
GENERALLY IN THE 60S FOR THE PLAINS FRI AND SAT. A BIT BREEZY AS THE
SURFACE GRADIENT REMAINS ON THE STRONG SIDE. NEXT SYSTEM MOVES IN
FROM THE PACNW EARLY SUNDAY. A WEAK DISTURBANCE MOVING UP FROM THE
SOUTH AROUND THE W SIDE OF A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE WILL GRAZE OUR FAR
ERN COUNTIES WITH A FEW SHOWERS SUN MORNING. INITIALLY...THE NRN
SYSTEM WILL MAINLY AFFECT THE CENTRAL MTS ESPECIALLY OVER LAKE AND
CHAFFEE COUNTIES...BUT BY EARLY MONDAY A COLD FRONT WILL DROP ACROSS
ERN CO AND BRING AN INCREASE IN UPSLOPE CONDITIONS AND THE
POSSIBILITY OF SOME PRECIP FOR THE ERN MTS AND PLAINS MON INTO TUES.
INITIALLY...THIS WOULD BE RAIN SHOWERS BELOW 9K FEET...BUT BY LATE
MONDAY INTO TUESDAY SNOW LEVELS SHOULD DROP TO 6500 FEET OR LOWER.
SO...POSSIBLY A FEW FLAKES FOR KCOS AND THE ERN FOOTHILLS.

A FAIR AMOUNT OF UNCERTAINTY EXISTS IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD. MAIN
QUESTION WILL BE HOW A TROUGH EVOLVES OVER THE ROCKIES FROM TUESDAY
THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. THE 00Z ECMWF PRESENTS A BIT OF
DEPARTURE...AND PROGS A DEEPER TROUGH THAT HANGS AROUND FOR MUCH OF
NEXT WEEK...NOT REALLY GIVING WAY TO AN UPSTREAM PACIFIC RIDGE UNTIL
NEXT WEEKEND. THIS SOLUTION WOULD BRING A FAIR AMOUNT OF PRECIP TO
MUCH OF THE AREA IN THE WED-FRI TIME FRAME. THE GFS...ON THE OTHER
HAND...PROGS A MORE PROGRESSIVE TROUGH THAT CLEARS THE ROCKIES BY
LATE TUESDAY...LEAVING OUR AREA LARGELY DRY FROM WED THROUGH NEXT
WEEKEND. JUST A MATTER OF A SLIGHT PHASE DIFFERENCE...BUT IT HAS BIG
CONSEQUENCES FOR OUR AREA. THE GFS SEEMS A BIT MORE CONSISTENT...AND
ENSEMBLE MEMBERS ARE NOT TERRIBLY SPREAD OUT BY NEXT WEEK...SO TEND
TO FAVOR THE GFS IN THIS CASE. HOWEVER...THERE ARE A FEW MEMBERS
THAT SUGGEST A BIT MORE TROFINESS BY THE LATTER PART OF THE
FORECAST. AND EVEN WITH THE DRY GFS...WE WOULD STILL BE ON THE COOL
SIDE IN N TO NW FLOW ALOFT. CONSIDERED GOING WITH SILENT POPS FOR
NEXT WEEK...BUT GIVEN THAT CLIMO FAVORS PRECIP FOR THE MTS RIGHT NOW
FOR EVEN WEAK DISTURBANCES...WILL KEEP LOW OR SLIGHT CHANCE POPS GOING
FOR THE MT ZONES. WILL HAVE TO WATCH HOW THINGS DEVELOP OVER THE
NEXT FEW DAYS. THE EXPECTED TROUGH IS JUST A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
ENTERING THE ALEUTIAN CHAIN RIGHT NOW...SO PLENTY OF TIME FOR THINGS
TO EVOLVE. EXPECT COOL TEMPS...GENERALLY BELOW AVERAGE...AND AT
LEAST SOME LOW CHANCES FOR PRECIP. ROSE

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1111 AM MDT THU OCT 10 2013

KALS...STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS GUSTING TO NEAR 40 KTS ARE BLOWING
ACROSS THE TERMINAL CREATING BLOWING DUST AND REDUCED VIS DOWN TO
1 3/4SM. THESE CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY PREVAIL THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. IN ADDITION...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE
MOUNTAINS TO THE WEST WILL MOVE OVER THE TERMINAL THIS AFTERNOON.
THERE COULD BE EVEN STRONGER GUSTS NEAR THUNDERSTORMS. THE MOST
LIKELY TIME PERIOD FOR STORMS WILL BE 21-01Z. IMPROVING CONDITIONS
WILL MOVE INTO THE TERMINAL BY LATE EVENING.

KCOS...STRONG WINDS WILL MOVE INTO THE TERMINAL BY 19Z WITH
SOUTHERLY WIND GUSTS NEARING 35 KTS. THERE COULD BE ISOLATED
PERIODS OF BLOWING DUST NEAR THE TERMINAL...BUT CONFIDENCE IN
OCCURRENCE IS LOW AT THIS TIME. THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY IMPACT
THE TERMINAL BETWEEN 22-24Z THIS AFTERNOON. STRONGER WIND GUSTS
ARE POSSIBLE NEAR THUNDERSTORMS. IMPROVING CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST
TO MOVE INTO THE AREA AFTER 05Z THIS EVENING.

KPUB...WEAKER EASTERLY WINDS WILL TURN SOUTHERLY BY 20Z WITH WIND
GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 30 KTS IMPACTING THE TERMINAL. THERE COULD BE
PERIODS OF BLOWING DUST THIS AFTERNOON. THERE IS LESS CERTAINTY
THAT THUNDERSTORMS WILL ACTUALLY MOVE OVER THE TERMINAL...BUT
THERE IS A RISK BETWEEN 22-24Z THIS AFTERNOON. STRONG OUTFLOW
WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN THREAT. IMPROVING CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST
THIS EVENING.  MOZLEY

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL...EAST
CENTRAL...SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST COLORADO.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

A STRONG FALL STORM WILL TRACK THROUGH SOUTHERN COLORADO TODAY AND
TONIGHT. THE STORM WILL BRING HEAVY SNOW TO THE MOUNTAINS ALONG THE
CONTINENTAL DIVIDE...WHERE 8 TO 12 INCHES OF SNOWFALL IS LIKELY BY
LATE TONIGHT OVER THE SAN JUAN MOUNTAINS ABOVE 11000 FEET. LIGHTER
SNOW IN THE 3 TO 7 INCH RANGE IS FORECAST FOR THE LA GARITA
MOUNTAINS AND THE SAWATCH RANGE...MAINLY ABOVE 11000 FEET.
THE COMBINATION OF SNOW AND STRONG SOUTHWEST WINDS MAY PRODUCE
HAZARDOUS TRAVEL CONDITIONS OVER WOLF CREEK AND CUMBRES PASSES
TODAY...AND ACROSS INDEPENDENCE AND COTTONWOOD PASSES THIS AFTERNOON
INTO TONIGHT. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS...PRODUCING BRIEF PERIODS OF
VERY HEAVY SNOW ALONG WITH LIGHTNING AND GUSTY WINDS...WILL ALSO BE
POSSIBLE ALONG THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TODAY.

REMAINING MOUNTAIN RANGES WILL ALSO SEE A BRIEF PERIOD OF HIGH
ELEVATION SNOW SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS THIS
AFTERNOON...BUT LITTLE OR NO ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED DUE TO THE
SHORT DURATION OF THE PRECIPITATION. LIGHTNING AND WIND GUSTS TO 60
MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY THUNDERSTORMS.

OVER THE SAN LUIS VALLEY AND EASTERN PLAINS...STRONG SOUTHWEST WINDS
WILL DEVELOP LATE THIS MORNING...CONTINUING INTO THE EARLY EVENING.
WIND GUSTS OF 45 TO 55 MPH IN THE SAN LUIS VALLEY...AND AROUND 60
MPH OVER THE FAR SOUTHEAST PLAINS...MAY PRODUCE AREAS OF BLOWING
DUST AND REDUCED VISIBILITY...CREATING HAZARDOUS TRAVEL
CONDITIONS.

ELSEWHERE OVER THE PLAINS...VALLEYS AND INTERSTATE 25
CORRIDOR...THIS WEATHER SYSTEM WILL PRODUCE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
FROM LATE MORNING INTO EARLY EVENING. THE MAIN THREAT FROM ANY
STORMS WILL BE LIGHTNING AND WIND GUSTS OF UP TO 60 MPH.

THERE IS ALSO A SMALL CHANCE FOR A FEW SEVERE STORMS OVER THE FAR
EASTERN PLAINS ALONG THE KANSAS BORDER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
THE PRIMARY THREATS FROM THESE STORMS WILL BE WIND GUSTS GREATER
THAN 60 MPH AND HAIL UP TO 1 INCH IN DIAMETER.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

ANOTHER INCH OR TWO OF SNOW IS POSSIBLE FOR THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS
FRIDAY MORNING.

A NEW STORM WILL MOVE INTO THE ROCKIES LATE SUNDAY...BRINGING SOME
LIGHT SNOW ACCUMULATIONS TO THE MOUNTAINS. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
THROUGH EASTERN COLORADO ON MONDAY...AND SNOW LEVELS WILL DROP FROM
NEAR 9000 FEET MONDAY TO 6500 FEET OR LOWER BY MONDAY NIGHT OR
EARLY TUESDAY. SNOW COULD CAUSE SOME HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS FOR THE
TUESDAY MORNING COMMUTE OVER MONUMENT HILL.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET REPORTING CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS WILL
POSSIBLE ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST MOUNTAINS TODAY...AND
ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHEAST PLAINS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
