MWWhat 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 Jun 5, 3:28 PM MDT, 1 hour 31 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 5, 3:28 PM MDT, 1 hour 31 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO 328 PM MDT THU JUN 5 2014 .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY) ISSUED AT 328 PM MDT THU JUN 5 2014 ...SEVERE WEATHER EPISODE EXPECTED LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS TODAY AND AGAIN ON FRIDAY... EMBEDDED DISTURBANCE IN WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. SFC WINDS ACROSS THE PLAINS REMAIN OUT OF THE EAST WITH SFC DEW POINTS GENERALLY IN THE UPPER 30S AND 40S ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR TO 50S FARTHER EAST. SPC MESO ANALYSIS SHOWING MIXED LAYER CAPES OF AROUND 500 TO 2000 J/KG ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS...WITH HIGHER VALUES EAST OF THE I-25 COUNTIES. THUNDERSTORMS ARE STARTING TO FIRE ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS LATE THIS AFTERNOON...AND AS THEY MOVE EASTWARD INTO MORE FAVORABLE INSTABILITY...THEY ARE EXPECTED TO INTENSIFY AND BECOME SEVERE. LARGE HAIL UP TO 2 INCHES IN DIAMETER...AND WIND GUSTS OVER 60 MPH WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREATS. LCLS SEEM A LITTLE HIGH...BUT AS EVENING APPROACHES ENHANCED EASTERLY LOW LEVEL WINDS MAY BE SUFFICIENT FOR AN ISOLATED TORNADO...PARTICULARLY ACROSS THE PLAINS TO THE EAST OF LA JUNTA. SPC SSEO SHOWS SOME ENHANCED UPDRAFT HELICITIES WITH THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THESE AREAS LATER THIS EVENING. AREAS OF GREATEST RISK FOR THUNDERSTORMS EARLY ON BASED ON LATEST SHORT RANGE HIGH RES MODELS WILL BE THE TWO DIVIDES (PALMER AND RATON). THEN RAP13...NAM12...AND GFS SUGGEST AN MCS WILL FORM ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS OVERNIGHT...AND SEEM TO BE TRENDING DEVELOPMENT TOWARDS THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE STATE AFTER 06Z JUST NORTH OF THE FRONT. HAVE KEPT SOME SCT POPS OUT THAT WAY OVERNIGHT. EASTERLY UPSLOPE FLOW COMBINED WITH ANY WESTWARD PROPAGATING OUTFLOW FROM THE MCS WILL HELP REINFORCE HIGHER DEW POINTS BACK WESTWARD INTO THE SOUTHEAST MOUNTAINS. THIS WILL SET THE STAGE FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF SEVERE WEATHER FOR FRIDAY. WEAK EMBEDDED DISTURBANCE BACK ACROSS CA WILL BE PROPAGATING THROUGH WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT FOR FRIDAY AND THIS IN COMBINATION WITH AFTERNOON HEATING SHOULD TRIGGER ANOTHER ROUND OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. WITH DEEP LAYER SHEARS RUNNING AROUND 40-50 KTS...ROTATING SUPERCELLS WILL ONCE AGAIN BE LIKELY. CAPE VALUES SHOULD ALSO BE A BIT HIGHER...PROBABLY AROUND 1000-2500 J/KG ACROSS ALL OF THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS...THUS EXPECT THE SOUTHEAST MOUNTAINS AND I-25 CORRIDOR TO BE MORE ACTIVE AS WELL. THIS RAISES CONCERNS FOR FLASH FLOODING ON THE BURN SCARS OF THE SOUTHEAST MOUNTAINS TOMORROW AFTERNOON. STORM MOTIONS SHOULD BE PRETTY QUICK MOVING...BUT INTENSE RAINFALL RATES MAY STILL CAUSE QUICK RUNOFF PROBLEMS. LATER SHIFTS MAY NEED TO CONSIDER A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE WALDO AND BLACK FOREST BURN SCARS...BUT WILL WAIT FOR DETAILS TO GET RESOLVED BETTER IN HIGH RES MODELS IN THE 00Z AND 06Z RUNS. THE SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL MOUNTAINS WILL REMAIN DRIER AND LESS ACTIVE AS MOST OF THE MOISTURE REMAINS PINNED UP ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST MOUNTAINS AND PLAINS. NAM DOES HINT AT SOME MARGINAL INCREASE IN MOISTURE ACROSS THE UPPER ARKANSAS RIVER VALLEY...AND PORTIONS OF THE LA GARITAS AND SAN LUIS VALLEY AS WELL. BUT THESE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE MORE HIGH BASED AND MORE ISOLATED IN NATURE. GUSTY WINDS UP TO 40 MPH AND LIGHTNING WILL BE THE PRIMARY STORM THREATS. -KT .LONG TERM...(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 328 PM MDT THU JUN 5 2014 ...COOL AND UNSETTLED PATTERN TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE WEEKEND... FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...SOME SUBTLE DIFFERENCES IN NAM AND GLOBAL MODELS...THOUGH ALL MODELS KEEPS A COOL AND UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND. LATEST GFS AND ECMWF KEEP MODERATE WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WITH EMBEDDED SHORT WAVES TRANSLATING ACROSS THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. FLOW BECOMES MORE NORTHWEST SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT AS BROAD TROUGH MOVES ACROSS THE NORTHERN ROCKIES AND HIGH PLAINS WITH UPPER RIDGING BUILDING ACROSS THE WEST COAST AND INTO THE GREAT BASIN. LATEST NAM A TAD DRIER FOR FRIDAY NIGHT...AND HAVE STAYED CLOSER TO GLOBAL MODELS WHICH INDICATE AN MCS TRANSLATING ACROSS THE FAR SE PLAINS FRIDAY NIGHT WITH CONVECTIVE OUTFLOWS PUSHING RICH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE BACK ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS. STRATUS ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS GIVES WAY TO PARTIAL CLEARING THROUGH THE LATE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON. STORMS TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON AND SPREAD ACROSS THE MORE MOIST AND UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS THROUGH THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS. A SIMILAR PATTERN IS EXPECTED FOR SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE AMPLE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IN PLACE WITH CAPES ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO BETWEEN 1000-2000 J/KG THROUGH THE PERIOD...THOUGH DO INDICATE A SLIGHT DECREASE IN SHEAR ACROSS THE AREA SATURDAY WITH SHEARS INCREASING TO 40-50KTS ACROSS THE AREA AGAIN ON SUNDAY. AT ANY RATE...SHOULD STILL BE ENOUGH SHEAR AND INSTABILITY FOR AFTERNOON AND EVENING SEVERE WEATHER...WITH LARGE HAIL AND STRONG WINDS BEING THE MAIN THREATS. ABUNDANT MOISTURE WILL ALSO SUPPORT LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND THE POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING ON EASTERN COLORADO BURN SCARS. FURTHER WEST...LATEST NAM TRIES TO MOISTEN UP THE ATMOSPHERE ACROSS WESTERN COLORADO THROUGH THE PERIOD AND IS INDICATING MUCH MORE QPF ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL MTS THAN GFS AND ECMWF...AND HAVE GONE WITH THE DRIER SOLUTIONS AT THIS TIME. MONDAY-THURSDAY...A DRIER AND WARMER PATTERN LOOKS TO BE IN THE OFFING WITH UPPER LEVEL RIDGING BUILDING INTO THE STATE MONDAY AND THEN FLATTENS ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY WITH MORE ENERGY MOVING ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER OF STATES. STILL LOOKS TO BE ENOUGH MOISTURE FOR ISOLATED MORE HIGHER BASED AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY OVER AND NEAR THE HIGHER TERRAIN THROUGH PERIOD. COULD SEE A DRYLINE DEVELOPING ACROSS THE FAR SE PLAINS ON THURSDAY WITH INCREASING SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT AHEAD OF A STRONGER SYSTEM DIGGING INTO THE GREAT BASIN. && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY AFTERNOON) ISSUED AT 328 PM MDT THU JUN 5 2014 SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL PUSH OFF THE MOUNTAINS AND MAY AFFECT THE KCOS AND KPUB TAF SITES. WILL MAINTAIN A TEMPO -TSRA FOR KCOS WHERE LIKELIHOOD IS GREATEST THAT TERMINAL MAY BE IMPACTED. KPUB WILL REMAIN IN A VCTS FOR NOW. GUSTY WINDS AND HAIL TO NEAR 1 INCH IN DIAMETER WILL BE POSSIBLE SHOULD THESE AREAS BE IMPACTED BY A THUNDERSTORM THROUGH THIS EVENING. IFR TO MVFR STRATUS WILL DEVELOP AND SPREAD WESTWARD INTO THE TERMINALS OVERNIGHT. THESE CIGS WILL BREAK BY 16Z-17Z AND THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS WILL SEE ANOTHER ROUND OF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS FRIDAY AFTERNOON. THESE MAY BE MORE LIKELY TO AFFECT BOTH KCOS AND KPUB TERMINALS THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS POSSIBLE. KALS WILL REMAIN VFR WITH SOME BREEZY SOUTHERLY WINDS 15- 25 KTS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. -KT && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. && SHORT TERM...KT LONG TERM...MW AVIATION...KT

ALTHOUGH THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BE FAIRLY ISOLATED INITIALLY...IF ONE OF THESE THUNDERSTORMS MOVES OVER THE WALDO CANYON OR BLACK FOREST BURN SCARS...FLASH FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE. THE THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE OFF THE MOUNTAINS AND ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. AS THEY MOVE EAST OF THE I-25 CORRIDOR...THEY WILL STRENGTHEN WITH A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS LIKELY. LARGE HAIL UP TO 2 INCHES IN DIAMETER AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS OVER 60 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THESE STORMS. THUNDERSTORMS WILL COMBINE INTO A MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEM BY THIS EVENING AND MOVE ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS INTO WESTERN KANSAS. DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE PRIMARY THREATS. IN ADDITION...HIGH RESOLUTION MODELS ARE INDICATING THE POTENTIAL FOR AN ISOLATED TORNADO WITH THE MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEM AS IT MOVES ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS THIS EVENING.
