What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Pueblo, CO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 1, 3:44 PM MDT, 2 hours 30 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 1, 3:44 PM MDT, 2 hours 30 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO 344 PM MDT THU AUG 1 2013 .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY) ISSUED AT 342 PM MDT THU AUG 1 2013 CURRENTLY...SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND UPPER VORT MAX ARE CURRENTLY EJECTING EASTWARD ACROSS COLORADO...WHILE A SECONDARY WAVE MOVES NORTHWARD OUT OF NEW MEXICO INTO SOUTHERN COLORADO. RADAR INDICATES WIDESPREAD CONVECTION OVER THE MOUNTAIN AREAS AND SPREADING EAST INTO THE I-25 CORRIDOR. TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN WARM WITH UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S FOR THE PLAINS. THROUGH TONIGHT...MODELS HAVING A HARD TIME WITH THIS UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE AND THE AMOUNT OF CONVECTION FIRING ACROSS THE REGION. THE LATEST RAP AND HRRR SEEM TO HAVE A BETTER HANDLE WITH THE LATEST RUNS WITH CONVECTION SPREADING EAST ACROSS THE PLAINS THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. DEW POINTS IN THE UPPER 50S AND PWAT VALUES APPROACHING AN INCH HAVE LED TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WITH THESE THUNDERSTORMS. OF CONCERN ARE AREA BURN SCARS...WHICH COULD SEE LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING WITH ANY HEAVY CELLS THAT MOVE OVER THEM. WHILE THE WEST FORK COMPLEX HAS ONLY SEEN LIGHT PRECIP SO FAR TODAY...THE UPPER DISTURBANCE MOVING NORTH OUT OF NEW MEXICO SHOULD PROVIDE ENHANCED LIFT AND CONTINUED THREAT FOR HEAVY RAINFALL THROUGH THIS EVENING. NOT MUCH OF A SEVERE WEATHER THREAT ACROSS THE PLAINS THIS EVENING. THERE COULD BE SOME DIME TO PENNY SIZE HAIL WITH THE STRONGEST CELLS...ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 50 THROUGH ABOUT 9PM TONIGHT. EXPECT MOST ACTIVITY TO SHIFT EAST WITH THE UPPER WAVE AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY COMING TO AN END THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. THE EXCEPTION WILL BE THE SAN JUAN RANGE WHERE THE EJECTING UPPER DISTURBANCE WILL LIKELY KEEP THUNDERSTORMS GOING INTO FRIDAY MORNING. FRIDAY...THE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE OUT OF NEW MEXICO WILL TRACK INTO SOUTHWEST KANSAS BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON WHILE A WEAK BOUNDARY SHIFTS SOUTH INTO THE PLAINS. DRIER AIR AND SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE DEPARTING WAVE SHOULD LIMIT THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO THE MOUNTAIN AREAS...AND NEAR THE NEW MEXICO BORDER. THE MAIN THREATS WILL CONTINUE TO BE LOCALIZED HEAVY RAINFALL AND LIGHTNING. GIVEN THE DECREASE IN MOISTURE...THE FLASH FLOOD RISK WILL LIKELY BE MINIMAL OVER THE WEST FORK COMPLEX...BUT ANY CELLS THAT DO MOVE OVER THE BURN SCAR COULD PRODUCE A QUICK BURST OF RAINFALL. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN WARM WITH AFTERNOON HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 90S ACROSS THE LOWER ELEVATIONS. MOZLEY .LONG TERM...(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 342 PM MDT THU AUG 1 2013 ...SUMMER MONSOON WILL STICK AROUND FOR A WHILE... ALL IN ALL...GOOD NEW IN THE WEATHER DEPARTMENT...THE SUMMER MONSOON LOOKS ALIVE AND WELL THROUGH AT LEAST NEXT WEEK. THERE WILL BE WETTER DAYS AND DRIER DAYS...BUT THE MONSOON PLUME WILL GENERALLY REMAIN OVER COLORADO. NOT EVERYONE WILL GET RAIN EVERYDAY...SUMMER CONVECTION IS PRETTY MUCH ALWAYS HIT OR MISS. BUT...OVER TIME...MOST WILL GET THERE SHARE OF THE MONSOON...MAYBE ONLY 1 DAY IN THE NEXT 7...MAYBE 2 DAYS...MAYBE EVEN 3 DAYS OR MORE. BUT...THE SHOWERS WILL BE AROUND...AND THE HUMIDITIES WILL BE UP...ALL GOOD FOR COLORADO. WELL...MAYBE NOT SO GOOD FOR THE BURN SCAR AREAS...OF COURSE. FRIDAY LOOKS A BIT DRIER...BUT STILL MOIST ENOUGH FOR ISOLATED TO SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE AREA...ESPECIALLY MOUNTAINS AND RIDGES. SATURDAY CONTINUES TO LOOK LIKE A GOOD CHANCE OF SHOWERS OVER MOST OF THE AREA...BUT ESPECIALLY FOR THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS AND PLAINS. A SIGNIFICANT SURFACE BOUNDARY IS STILL POISED TO MOVE THROUGH THE EASTERN PLAINS THIS DAY AND INTERACT WITH THE MONSOON PLUME...TO PRODUCE MORE WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION THAN TYPICAL. WITH THE GREATER NUMBER OF SHOWERS AROUND...AND THE GREATER LIFTING PROVIDED BY THE SURFACE BOUNDARY...THIS WILL INCREASE THE HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL AT ANY ONE LOCATION THIS DAY. SO...THE BURN SCAR FLASH FLOOD THREAT WILL BE UP. SUNDAY LOOKS A BIT DRIER...BUT STILL MOIST ENOUGH FOR CONVECTION...ESPECIALLY MOUNTAINS AND RIDGES AGAIN. LATER MONDAY THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK CONTINUES TO LOOK INTERESTING WITH THE CHANCES FOR AFTERNOON AND NIGHTLY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS GOING UP THROUGH THE PERIOD. STARTING MONDAY NIGHT...A SERIES OF SURFACE BOUNDARIES WILL START TO MOVE THROUGH THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA. THESE BOUNDARIES WILL BE TIED TO A SLOWLY MOVING BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROUGH DROPPING SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE NORTHERN PLAINS DURING THE PERIOD. THE JET STREAM ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THIS TROUGH WILL TEND TO SEND SURFACE BOUNDARIES SOUTH THROUGH THE PLAINS ON A REGULAR BASIS...THUS...INCREASING THE AMOUNT OF LOW LEVEL UPSLOPE FLOW OVER THE EAST. THE INCREASED LIFTING OF THE AIR ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPSLOPE COMBINED WITH A STRONG MONSOON PRESENCE WILL SET THE STAGE FOR REPEATED ROUNDS OF SHOWERS...HEAVY AT TIMES...THROUGH THE PERIOD. IF CURRENT FORECASTS VERIFY...THE BURN SCAR AREAS WILL LIKELY NEED TO BE ON HIGH ALERT MOST OF NEXT WEEK. LW && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY EVENING) ISSUED AT 342 PM MDT THU AUG 1 2013 KALS...WIDESPREAD SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS IMPACTING THE MOUNTAIN AREAS AROUND THE SAN LUIS VALLEY...WITH SEVERAL CELLS MOVING IN AND AROUND THE TERMINAL. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD PERSIST THROUGH MUCH OF THE EVENING...THROUGH AT LEAST 08Z TONIGHT. REDUCED VIS AND CIGS ARE LIKELY TO IFR CONDITION. DRIER CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST TO MOVE INTO THE SAN LUIS VALLEY BY FRIDAY MORNING. KCOS AND KPUB...BAND OF SPOTTY THUNDERSTORMS IN A LINE FROM KCOS TO SOUTH OF KPUB IS MOVING EAST. FOR NOW IT LOOKS LIKE BOTH TERMINALS WILL JUST HAVE CELLS IN THE VICINITY. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT A CELL WILL MOVE OVER THE TERMINALS THROUGH THIS EVENING WITH REDUCED VIS AND CIGS POSSIBLE IF THEY DO. KPUB WILL HAVE THE BEST CHANCE OF SEEING THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH 02Z. MOZLEY && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... FLASH FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 8 PM MDT THIS EVENING FOR COZ067-068. && SHORT TERM...MOZLEY LONG TERM...LW AVIATION...MOZLEY
