.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 306 PM MDT Thu Jul 14 2016

...Severe storms possible this evening...

Current water vapor imagery and upper air analysis indicating west
to moderate west to northwest flow aloft across the region with a
minor embedded short wave translating across the Northern Rockies at
this time. Upslope flow across the eastern plains has held in low
level moisture with dew points in the 50s to lower 60s across the
I-25 corridor through the southeast plains at this time, with mainly
30s and 40s across the lower elevations of the eastern mts and teens
and 20s across the rest of the higher terrain and high mountain
valleys.

This afternoon and evening...solar heating has allowed for some
storms to fire across the eastern mts, with storms strengthening as
the move east south east into a more unstable atmosphere across the
plains. SPC meso analysis has upwards of 2000 J/KG of CAPE across
the plains, and with bulk shears of 30-40kts, supports the
development of supercells capable of producing large hail of 1 to 2
inches in diameter and damaging wind gusts of up to 60 mph across
the plains. SPC has severe watch 384 out for El Paso, Pueblo,
Crowley, Otero, Huerfano and Las Animas counties out through 8 PM
which looks good. Did not issue a watch for the far se plains with
subsidence behind the northern Rockies wave, however, will need
watch for possible outflows helping to initiate a few storms. Storms
to diminish though the evening and should see skies slowly clearing
from west to east through the overnight hours.

Flow aloft becomes more westerly though the day tomorrow, as another
wave across the Pac NW continues to move east into the Northern
Great Basin. This allows for lee troughing to develop across the
eastern plains tomorrow afternoon, with the low level moisture
expected to mix out across the eastern mountains and I-25 corridor.
Still enough moisture to support isolated to scattered afternoon
storms across the eastern mts and plains, with best coverage across
the plains. Models continue to indicate a slight increase in
available moisture across western Colorado, which could help to
develop high based storms across the higher terrain of the CONTDVD,
with lightning and gusty outflow winds and little in the way of
rain. Temperatures look to be at or slightly warmer than today
across the area tomorrow.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday)
Issued at 306 PM MDT Thu Jul 14 2016

...Fire Danger elevates this weekend...

Friday night...residual moisture over the plains allows for a
continuation of isolated evening showers and storms, primarily
across the eastern mountains, Pikes Peak Region, and the southeast
plains. There will be enough instability for a risk of marginally
severe storms.

Saturday and Sunday...the upper flow shifts from the west and west-
southwest, and fire weather becomes the main focus. Temperatures are
forecast to peak around 100 degrees over the plains and 80s
through the high valleys and lower mountains elevations. Relative
humidity will fall below 15 percent and only isolated storms at best
are anticipated in the late afternoon and early evening.  The mid
level flow (10K feet) will be around 15 to 25 kts, and this will
possibly keep any fire behavior from becoming extreme. The next
couple days of fire suppression will be key in determining the
extent of fire spread over the weekend for the Hayden Pass wildfire.

Monday into next week...Models indicate the upper high will build to
around 600 decameters at 500mb as it shifts into the central Great
Plains, as a trough forms off the west coast. As a result, hot
weather will continue, especially across the eastern half of the
CWA. A modest monsoonal pattern develops, with moisture advecting
into Colorado from Arizona and western New Mexico. The thing to
watch for is lightning from the storms that produce lesser rains
across the higher terrain, which could spark more wildfires. In
addition, storms would cause erratic low level gusty winds around
and in any wildfires. -tlm-

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday evening)
Issued at 306 PM MDT Thu Jul 14 2016

Low level moisture within low level upslope flow will allow for
scattered thunderstorms will allow for scattered thunderstorms to
develop across the eastern mountains this afternoon and evening.
Storms to slide southeast across the I-25 corridor through the far
southeast plains through the evening. Storms across the eastern
plains could become severe, producing large hail and gusty outflow
winds to around 60 mph. Latest higher resolution models continue to
indicate storms moving across COS and PUB between 20z-02z timeframe
producing brief MVFR conditions.

Otherwise...VFR expected to conditions to prevail at all three taf
sites through the period with lesser chances of afternoon storms
affecting COS and PUB tomorrow afternoon.

EVENING...MAINLY EAST OF INTERSTATE 25. HAIL TO ONE INCH, WINDS TO
60 MPH, AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING WILL BE THE MAIN THREATS.

STORMS WILL BECOME ISOLATED AND MAINLY CONFINED TO THE MOUNTAINS
ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. MARGINALLY CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS
WILL BE POSSIBLE AS WINDS INCREASE FROM THE SOUTHWEST...LEADING TO
LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY AND GUSTY AFTERNOON WINDS.

A BETTER CHANCE FOR STORMS...MAINLY OVER THE MOUNTAINS...WILL
OCCUR FROM MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...AS SOME MONSOONAL MOISTURE
SLOWLY WORKS INTO THE REGION.
