S CALIF SHORT WAVE WILL CLOSE OFF AND BE LOCATED NEAR THE 4 CORNERS
BY THURSDAY NIGHT. PRECIP IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE ALL AREAS AS THE
DAY PROGRESSES AND SNOW LEVELS WILL DECREASE THROUGHOUT THE DAY AS
THE CLOSED LOW MOVES CLOSER TO THE REGION. THE MORE SIGNIFICANT
PRECIP FOR THE PLAINS/S MTN INTERFACE WILL LIKELY DEVELOP BY
THURSDAY EVENING. THIS PRECIP IS EXPECTED TO BECOME WIDESPREAD
OVER THE PLAINS...AND MAY BE LOCALLY HEAVY IN PLACES. IN
ADDITION...MODELS ARE NOW INDICATING THE STORM TRACK MAY BE A BIT
FARTHER NORTH AND THIS WILL ALLOW A WARM FRONT TO LIE ON THE RATON
MESA BY LATE THURSDAY AFTERNOON. ENOUGH INSTABILITY MAY BE IN
PLACE FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP LATE THU AFTERNOON/EVENING.
PLENTY OF SHEAR WILL BE IN PLACE...SO THERE WILL BE A POSSIBILITY
OF ONE OR TWO ROTATING STORMS DEVELOPING.

SNOW LEVELS ALONG THE PIKES PEAK REGION WILL DROP DOWN TO ~6000
FEET BY THURSDAY NIGHT...SO SNOW IS GOING TO BE POSSIBLE (LIKELY)
ACROSS EL PASO COUNTY. THIS SNOW COULD BE HEAVY AT TIMES. THIS HAS
THE POTENTIAL TO BE A HIGH IMPACT EVENT GIVEN THAT TREES ARE
STARTING TO LEAF-OUT...AND THE HEAVY WET SNOW MAY CAUSE LIMBS TO
BREAK OFF. FOR NOW I HAVE 0.5-1.0" OF LIQUID QPF OVER NEARLY ALL
OF EL PASO COUNTY...AND QUITE A BIT OF THIS MAY BE
SNOW...GENERALLY ABOVE 6000 FEET.

WITHOUT SAYING...HEAVY WET SNOW IS GOING TO BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE
EAST FACING SLOPES OF THE S MTNS. A FOOT OR MORE OF "LIQUID CEMENT"
IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION FOR THE SANGRES AND WET MTNS.

TRAVEL WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE QUITE DIFFICULT FRIDAY MORNING
ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE FCST AREA.

IN ADDITION...HEAVY SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS ALL OF THE MTNS THU
NIGHT...BUT THE HEAVIEST WILL BE OVER THE S MTNS.

THE SAN LUIS VALLEY MAY ALSO SEE SNOW THU NIGHT. RELATIVELY WARMER
AIR MAY GET INTO THE VALLEY AND THIS MAY LIMIT ANY ACCUMULATIONS ON
THE VALLEY FLOOR.

FRIDAY...

LOW WILL MOVE OVER THE STATE ON FRIDAY. MODELS DO VARY A BIT ON
TRACK...WITH THE EC SHOWING A MORE FAVORABLE TRACK FOR WIDESPREAD
PRECIP WHILE THE GFS MOVES THINGS A BIT FARTHER TO THE NORTH...AND
THIS WOULD LIMIT THE PRECIP POTENTIAL OVER THE S PART OF THE FCST
AREA.

IF A NORTHERN TRACK DOES EVOLVE...THEN THERE WILL BE POTENTIAL ONCE
AGAIN FOR THUNDERSTORMS...SOME STRONG...OVER THE RATON MESA REGION
FRI AFTERNOON AS THE WARM FRONT LIFT NORTH.

WEEKEND INTO NEXT WEEK

WEATHER WILL REMAIN QUITE UNSETTLED. ANOTHER CLOSED LOW WILL DROP
INTO  THE GREAT BASIN SAT NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. ALL MODELS SHOW THIS
ALTHOUGH TRACKS VARY MODEL TO MODEL. COOL UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL
CONTINUE WITH THE BEST CHANCE OF MORE WIDESPREAD PRECIP ON SUNDAY
NIGHT INTO MONDAY. ONCE AGAIN IT WILL BE COLD ENOUGH FOR MTN AND
VALLEY SNOW AND LOWER ELEVATION RAIN.

WE SHOULD START TO DRY OUT SOMEWHAT BY TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY.

SUMMARY...

A LATE SEASON SNOW EVENT WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE MTNS AND N EL
PASO COUNTY THU NITE INTO FRIDAY. THIS COULD BE A HIGH IMPACT EVENT
DUE TO THE HEAVY WET NATURE OF THE SNOW. IT IS STILL TOO FAR IN THE
FUTURE TO PREDICT EXACT SNOW AMOUNTS...BUT GIVEN THE PROJECTED QPF
AND TEMPS...IT COULD BE LOCALLY HEAVY (BOTH IS DEPTH AND WEIGHT).

SOME STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS COULD OCCUR LATE THU AFTERNOON AND
POSSIBLY LATE FRI AFTERNOON ALONG THE CO/NM BORDER.

WIDESPREAD RAIN COULD OCCUR OVER THE PLAINS THU NITE INTO FRIDAY
BRINGING BENEFICIAL RAINS TO THE LOWER ELEVATIONS. TOTAL QPF
PREDICTED BY HPC DURING THE NEXT ~7 DAYS OVER MOST OF THE REGION
WILL RANGE BETWEEN 1.5" TO 4.0". THE HEAVIEST WILL BE ALONG THE
MTNS/PLAINS INTERFACE.

MORE STEADY RAIN AND SNOW COULD OCCUR SUN NITE INTO MONDAY.

LOTS OF CLOUDS AND VERY COOL WEATHER WILL BE WITH US DURING THIS
ENTIRE LONG TERM TIME PERIOD. FREEZING TEMPS MAY OCCUR NEARLY
EVERY NIGHT ACROSS N EL PASO COUNTY.

PLEASE STAY TUNED. \/HODANISH
