1023 PM MST Fri Jan 6 2017

.UPDATE...
Issued at 621 PM MST Fri Jan 6 2017

TEMPERATURES DROPPING FAST. TRIED TO CATCH UP. ALSO ADJUSTED
OVERNIGHT LOWS DOWNWARD IN MANY AREAS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SAN
LUIS VALLEY AND LOWER ARKANSAS RIVER VALLEY FROM PUEBLO EASTWARD.
GOING TO BE A COLD ONE!

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday)
Issued at 247 PM MST Fri Jan 6 2017

...Very Cold Tonight...

Currently...

Skies clear, and visible sat pix imgy shows snow covering the entire
state of Colorado. Temps were quite cold, with readings in the teens
across the plains and valleys and single +/- digits in the mtns.

Tonight...

Main concern is how low will it go tonight? With clear skies, light
winds and fresh snow cover temps will likely bottom out. Current min
temp forecast for the plains tonight range from zero to -10F which
are several degrees below guidance low temps. Although went below
guidance, these values may not be cold enough. For the San Luis
Valley (SLV), reading range between -10F and -20F. Coldest temps may
actually occur this evening as a light drainage wind may allow for
temps to slowly rise during the early morning hours.

Tomorrow..

Should see some recovery with max temps as we should approach 30F
most areas, but with continued snow cover believe we will be below
guidance max temps, and thus undercut them by 2-3F.

clouds should be on the increase by afternoon over the contdvd as
another wet pacific storm system moves towards the region. It is not
out of the question that we may see a few flakes along the divide
around sunset. The remainder of the region should be dry. A light sw
sfc wind should prevail over the plains, but winds will start to
pick up across the mtns, especially the c mtns and Sangre de Cristo
mtns. \/Hodanish

.LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Friday)
Issued at 247 PM MST Fri Jan 6 2017

Saturday Night and Sunday...West to northwest flow aloft in place
across the region as an upper ridge gradually slides east across the
desert southwest. The ridge axis crosses the Four Corners some time
Sunday evening, so up to that point look snow chances along the
Contdvd with the focus being on the central mts, and dry conditions
across the east. Expect a very cold night Sat, temps in the 30s and
40s for much of the area on Sun, then more mild temps Sun night as
winds start to get brisk once again with the ridge axis passing
across the state.

Monday through Friday...A very active pattern settles in for
Colorado starting Monday as the flow aloft becomes more west to
southwest, and the tap of Pacific moisture streams in. There are
some model differences on the timing of multiple fast-moving
disturbances, and much more of a discrepancy on what may happen on
Friday. However, the summary is that there will be a nearly constant
threat of snow across all of the mts, with the highest probability
being along the Contdvd, and there is the chance that some sort of
winter highlight may need to be issued for the Contdvd starting on
Monday. The east should remain dry, though the I-25 corridor will
become windy at times. Temps are forecast to warm into the 30s and
40s for the high valleys, and into the upper 40s and 50s for the
eastern plains. Moore

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Saturday night)
Issued at 1019 PM MST Fri Jan 6 2017

VFR conditions expected over the next 24 hours for KCOS and
KPUB...though increasing high cloudiness is expected on Saturday.
Winds on Saturday will remain less than 10 kts for both sites.
KALS could see some patchy ground fog at times overnight with VIS
approaching IFR at times. Given dry airmass aloft...fog is more
likely to remain patchy and brief in nature so will keep this in
an MVFR category for now. Any patchy fog should dissipate by 17z
with thickening high cloudiness through the day. -KT
