Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Denver/Boulder CO
342 PM MDT SUN JUN 26 2016

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday)
Issued at 340 PM MDT Sun Jun 26 2016

Higher terrain stretching from Douglas/wrn Elbert counties along
the Palmer Divide northeastward across ern Adams/sern Arapahoe and
cntrl/nern Washington Counties filling in with convection. At
present time cloud tops barely 25k ft and radar matrix has yet to
indicate any cores greater than 20 dbz. However...a well defined
convergence zone showing up on radar in this area continues to
drift slowly northward. Next few hours should see isolated to
widely scattered t-storms forming along this axis increasing sely
low-level flow advects mid 50s dewpoint air up into the area.
Further heating and speed convergence will provide the additional
lift needed to generate this storm activity. The chance of severe
wx appears low at this time due to drying at mid-levels and the
low amount of 0-3km bulk shear. However...would not rule out a
storm or two producing hail up to 1 inch in diameter and 40kt
gusts after 23z. Should see east-southeast storm motions into a
moist southeast flow. Along the Front Range and across the high
country...storm chances rest of this afternoon through early
evening probably no more than 10 pct. Gusty outflow winds main
threat from these weakly organized cells. The western batch of
storms expected to dissipate by sunset. Storms on the plains...
esply across the northeast corner of the CWA could linger well
after midnight...but not at the level of intensity as those early
this evening. Lows tonight under clearing skies and slight warming
aloft expected to anywhere from 2-6 degs f warmer than those last
night.

On Monday...upper-level ridge remains centered over the Four Corners
region as northwest mid-level flow becomes more firmly established
over northeast Colorado and surrounding states. Upstream over
Montana models show a shortwave trough forming within is flow and
sweeping southeast over the northern Great Plains by Monday morning.
The wave appears to generate a large convective complex over Nebraska
which models show slipping south over nrn Kansas by late afternoon.
Models esply the NAM...show a strong outflow boundary produced by
this storm complex backing across northeast Colorado during the
late afternoon hours. The deep easterly flow behind this bndry
causes a jump in theta-e/dewpoints which generates BL CAPES along
this westward advancing boundary in the 2500-3500 J/Kg range. 18z
run of the NAM not as quick to move this boundary through the CWA.
Now do not see this moisture rich outflow air reaching the Front
Range until after 00z. So significant convection along the I-25
urban corridor may hold off until evening. SPC has essentially all
of northeast Colorado in a Slight Risk tomorrow. Large hail and
damaging winds main threats...but strong bulk shear/helicities on
the south end of this outflow moving swwrd through srn Washington...
ern Elbert and Lincoln Counties could possibly produce one or two
tornadoes late. High country areas should miss out on most of this
storm activity as the airmass up there should remain dry beneath a
strong mid-level cap. Temperatures tomorrow should be similar to
those today since the cooler outflow air is not expected to spread
over most areas until after max heating.

.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 340 PM MDT Sun Jun 26 2016

Models have the upper ridge centered over western Colorado from
Monday night through Wednesday night. Forty knot west and
northwesterly jet level flow is progged all five periods. The QG
Omega fields have weak downward synoptic scale energy for the CWA
Monday night into Tuesday, then weak upward energy is progged
through Wednesday night. The boundary layer winds will be east and
southeasterly Monday night and southeasterly on Tuesday. South and
southwesterly flow is progged Tuesday night, with north-
northeasterlies Wednesday and southeasterlies Wednesday night.
There is some moisture over the the CWA through the period.
Precipitable water amounts range from 0.30 west to 1.20 inch east
over the plains Monday night into Tuesday evening. Values range
from 0.30 to 1.00 inch Wednesday. There is decent CAPE, mainly for
the plains and foothills through all the periods. Most of the
plains have values well over 2000 j/kg for the late days periods.
The QPF fields have some measurable rainfall for the CWA mainly in
the late day and evening periods. For pops, will go with 10-40%s
Monday evening and late day Tuesday, with 10-30%s for late day
Wednesday. For temperatures, Tuesday's highs are close to this
afternoon's readings. Wednesday's highs are 1-2 C warmer than
Tuesday's. For the later days, Thursday through Sunday, the upper
ridge is over the four corners with west-northwesterly flow aloft
for the CWA. The flow aloft will be west and northwesterly all
four days. There is pretty deep moisture for the CWA Thursday
through Saturday, with a bit less by next Sunday.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday evening)
Issued at 340 PM MDT Sun Jun 26 2016

VFR conditions with only a slight chance of a high based
thunderstorm producing gusty winds...mainly over south and east
metro area until 02z. Then clearing overnight. East-southeast
6-14kts become south-southwest 5-10kts after sunset. On
Monday...south-southwest winds 6-12kts through mid-afternoon then
east-southeast winds 10-18 kts after 21z. Isolated t-storms after
20z...then scattered t-storms after 22z. Small hail and strong
gusty winds possible with the late day storms.
