Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Pueblo CO
342 PM MDT Mon May 8 2017

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 316 PM MDT Mon May 8 2017

Tonight and Tuesday...Short term model consensus has convection
moving to the northeast during the evening with a line of weakening
convection moving across the southeast plains.  Currently, looking
like the strongest convection this evening will be along and
north of US 50. Will keep some PoPs overnight as another weak
disturbance may produce some showers, mostly along the southern
I25 corridor. On Tuesday, another disturbance will rotate
northward, east of the upper low over Arizona. Plenty of low level
moisture will be in place over the plains along with the middle
and upper level moisture. Main question will be the amount of
instability. SPC Day2 has a marginal risk, which is very
reasonable. Other main concern will be locally heavy rains on the
burn scars.  --PGW--

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
Issued at 316 PM MDT Mon May 8 2017

Tuesday night into Wednesday...Upper low moves eastward, passing
over northern New Mexico Wednesday evening. Wednesday could be
another day with strong storms and locally heavy rainfall. Models
hint at an axis of heavier rainfall developing along a boundary
somewhere over eastern Colorado. EC has the boundary further
north while the GFS keeps it over southeast Colorado.

Thursday...Upper low slowly moves east with some precipitation
wrapping around the west side of the upper low.  Currently, appears
precipitation amounts will be light with cool and stable airmass
over the region.

Friday through Monday...Upper ridge builds into the region Friday
through Monday. There will be some residual moisture for a few
afternoon and evening thunderstorms, mainly over the higher
terrain. Otherwise, it will be mild and dry.  --PGW--

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Tuesday evening)
Issued at 316 PM MDT Mon May 8 2017

KCOS and KPUB...Scattered to numerous thunderstorms will continue
through late evening, with the potential for gusty winds, hail and
heavy rain. Will have to watch for some low clouds overnight
depending on the amount of easterly flow, which will depend on
outflows from thunderstorms. The wet and active pattern continues
on Tuesday with scattered to numerous afternoon and evening
thunderstorms. The storms could produce gusty winds, hail and
heavy rain.

KALS...Scattered thunderstorms will occur into Monday evening and on
Tuesday afternoon and evening. Gusty winds, brief downpours, and
small hail could accompany the storms.  --PGW--

This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of central...east
central...south central and southeast Colorado.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

A few severe thunderstorms are possible today across the plains. The
best chance for strong to severe storms will be along and north of
highway 50. The primary threat will be large hail up to golf ball
size and wind gusts to 70 mph. There is also a slight chance of a
tornado, especially in northern El Paso county. The best chance
for severe storms will be late this afternoon and into the evening
hours.

Flash flooding on burn scars will also increase today as unstable
air moves into the region. If a storm moves over any of the many
burn scars over the region, then flash flooding will be possible.
The most susceptible burn scars are the Junkins burn scar and the
Hayden Pass burn scar.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday

On Tuesday, scattered thunderstorms are expected to initiate over
the mountains early Tuesday afternoon, then drift eastward onto
the plains. Primary concerns will be lightning, strong winds,
large hail, heavy rain, burn scar flooding, and an isolated
tornado. Additionally, light snow accumulation will be possible
above 10000 feet.

On Wednesday and Thursday, the upper level low moves closer to
the region, bringing showers and thunderstorms to the area. A few
storms could become strong across the plains and heavy rainfall
will become more of a concern for burn scars. Primary risks are
lightning, small hail, wind gusts up to 50 mph and localized
flash flooding. Snow levels will remain around 10000 feet with
light to moderate accumulations possible across the higher
elevations.

High pressure will move across the area for Friday through Sunday.
However, there will be enough residual moisture for isolated
thunderstorms to develop over the higher terrain each afternoon.
Primary concerns will be lightning, small hail and wind gusts up
to 50 mph.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will be
likely today and tonight across the region.

locations.

These storms may intensify, so be certain to monitor local radio
stations and available television stations for additional
information and possible warnings from the National Weather Service.
