Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Pueblo CO
1127 PM MDT MON JUL 11 2016

.UPDATE...
Issued at 954 PM MDT Mon Jul 11 2016

The HRR model was on the right track, and isolated convection over
portions of Pueblo, Crowley and Otero Counties has prompted an
update to the forecast. Isolated activity should taper off by 1
am. Moore

UPDATE Issued at 802 PM MDT Mon Jul 11 2016

Updated forecast grids for expiration of the Red Flag Warning, and
incorporated latest obs data. Moore

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 330 PM MDT Mon Jul 11 2016

...High Fire Danger Continues...

Generally hot and dry westerly flow will continue across the
forecast area for the next 24 hours.  Little, if any, precipitation
is expected across the area.  Main concerns will be hot and dry
weather continuing the high fire danger across the region.

Radar is showing increased smoke returns from the Hayden Pass Fire
this afternoon as ventilation increases.  Conditions up there
continue to be breezy and dry with some of the nearby sensors
showing gusts over 30 mph at times and relative humidities in the
teens.  This will likely continue through the afternoon into the
early evening, leading to more active burning.  Some respite should
come overnight as mixing and winds decrease and humidities show at
least some modest recovery.

Tomorrow will still be warm, breezy and dry but not as bad as today.
Upper level winds decrease a bit from today's readings and relative
humidities increase a little.  There will still be some marginal
fire weather conditions around the area but they are not looking as
widespread or severe as today at this time.  Since it will be close
in some areas, this may change pending later model runs this evening
and overnight.  Regardless, caution to avoid activities that could
result in fire starts should continue. The recent fire starts have
shown the state of the fuels.  They are receptive given the right
meteorological conditions.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
Issued at 300 PM MDT Mon Jul 11 2016

...Cooler with Chances of Precipitation later this week...

Tuesday night-Wednesday night...Moderate westerly flow aloft
continues across the region with another short wave embedded within
the stronger zonal flow aloft moving across the Northern Tier
through the day Wednesday. This supports lee troughing strengthening
across the eastern plains Tuesday night which continues to push east
into Kansas Wednesday morning allowing for a weak frontal boundary
to move across the plains late Wednesday afternoon and evening. With
that said, could see breezy westerly winds persisting over the
higher terrain Tuesday night, keeping temperatures up and dew pts
low supporting poor RH recovery, especially along and west of the I-
25 corridor. As of now, models keeping passing frontal boundary dry
on Wedensday, with a north to northwest wind shift helping to warm
temps across the plains, with highs Wednesday in the upper 80s to
around 100 across the lower elevations, 70s and 80s across the
higher terrain and mainly 60s at the peaks. Low level flow becomes
more upslope across the plains Wednesday night, with low level
moisture slowly increasing overnight.

Thursday-Friday...Weak to moderate west to northwest flow aloft
progged across the region with another short wave moving across the
Northern Tier Thursday night. Some increase in mid and upper level
moisture is progged across the area, and along with moist low level
upslope flow across the eastern plains Thursday and another surge of
moisture Thursday night, allows for chances of storms developing
over and near the higher terrain in the afternoons, with best
coverage expected over and near the eastern mountains. Storms look
to spread east across the adjacent plains through the evening and
across the far southeast plains overnight. With the westerly flow
aloft, storms could become strong to severe across the plains, where
best available moisture will be located.

Saturday-Monday...A warming and drying trend into the weekend as
westerly flow is re-established across the Northern Tier. However,
by the middle of next week, longer range models are indicating a
possible monsoonal moisture tap, as an upper trough digging across
the Pac NW helps to push the upper high just south and east of the
area, owning to increasing moisture within a weak southwest flow
aloft. Time will tell.

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Tuesday night)
Issued at 1124 PM MDT Mon Jul 11 2016

VFR conditions are expected at the terminal forecast sites thru
the next 24 hrs. Gusty SW winds are expected at KALS Tue
afternoon, and KCOS should see gusty southerly winds.
