BAKERWhat 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 Denver/Boulder, CO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 13, 3:15 PM MDT, 1 hour 27 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 13, 3:15 PM MDT, 1 hour 27 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Denver/Boulder CO 315 PM MDT MON JUN 13 2016 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday) Issued at 315 PM MDT Mon Jun 13 2016 Initial wave of convection came earlier than modeled, thus did not have enough heating and energy to have the impacts it was expected to have. Clearing behind the wave allowed for some heating, although not as warm as forecasted. Have decreased max temperatures today, and this may affect how strong storms are able to grow the rest of the afternoon. Additional convection over the mountains are having a hard time moving off the higher terrain as there is still some stability lingering. As the upper trough, responsible for the lift, moves closer to the state, will continue to see storms for the rest of the afternoon and into the evening. High resolution models are having a tough time with the convection this evening, but one trend that is seen is that there will be the chance for showers and storms to continue over the area until around midnight. Have increased the chance of precipitation this evening for this trend. Storms will still be capable of marginal to large hail this afternoon into this evening, with a tornado or two possible as well...with the stronger storms still expected to be east of the metro areas towards the Kansas border and mainly south of I-76. Upper ridging will build over the state Tuesday with downward QG motion expected. Temperatures will be up to a few degrees warmer than today, with readings near normal for this time of year. Much drier air expected with only a few isolated showers or weak thunderstorms expected over the northern and central mountains. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday) Issued at 315 PM MDT Mon Jun 13 2016 Colorado weather will be drier and warmer through Friday with a stronger Southwest flow aloft and high pressure aloft over the Central Plains. Temperatures will climb above normal across the plains with readings rebounding back into the 90s for Wednesday through Friday. The ridge will rebuild further West near the Four Corners by later this weekend. A weak frontal boundary may drift into the Northeast Plains this weekend which may cool temperatures a bit for late Saturday night and Sunday and a slight chance of showers. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon) Issued at 315 PM MDT Mon Jun 13 2016 VFR conditions expected for the next 24 hours. Scattered to numerous storms over the higher terrain continue to move northeast at around 30 mph. Strong to severe thunderstorms are more likely to occur east of the urban corridor over the eastern plains. The urban corridor airports will still see a few storms through 00z, then will still keep a chance of showers going through 06z. Outflow winds to 30 knots, predominantly from the west or southwest, and isolated brief mvfr ceilings under the stronger storms are the main threats to the urban corridor, mainly through 03z. Storm/shower activity should rapidly diminish after midnight, with clearing skies through Tuesday as high pressure pushes in. Light drainage winds overnight will turn to the northwest Tuesday. && .BOU Watches/Warnings/Advisories... None. && SHORT TERM...Kriederman LONG TERM...Entrekin AVIATION...Kriederman
