Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Pueblo CO
1046 AM MST Sat Feb 4 2017

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
Issued at 413 AM MST Sat Feb 4 2017

...Much warmer and windier today...

Westerly downslope winds already making an appearance this morning,
with a few gusts to 50 knots in usual windy spots(i.e. Rampart
Range, Cheyenne Mountain, Walsenburg) along and west of I-25. Expect
strongest winds (40-50 kts) will occur from now into mid-morning,
though fairly widespread gusts of 30 plus knots will persist into
the afternoon, especially over the eastern mountains and lee slopes.
Temps this morning are all over the place depending on winds, with
well mixed areas along I-25 already deep into the 40s, while plains
farther east remain in the teens. Over the mountains, weak wave was
pushing light snow toward the Continental Divide as of 11z, and
expect occasional snow showers through today over mainly the central
mountains, with some local accums of an inch or two over the higher
peaks. Max temps area-wide will be milder than they have been for
the past several days, with readings well into the 60s across most
of the I-25 corridor and eastern plains.

For tonight, snow gradually tapers off to flurries over the central
mountains, with little additional accumulation expected. Weakening
surface gradient and lighter winds aloft suggest downslope flow will
be less pronounced overnight, though still enough wind to keep most
areas from decoupling completely, with warmest mins in the lee of
the eastern mountains.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Friday)
Issued at 413 AM MST Sat Feb 4 2017

Sunday...Brisk westerly flow aloft through the day, then shifting to
the southwest as the next upper trough nears the West Coast. Dry,
with max temps climbing into the 40s and 50s for the high valleys,
and upper 50s to lower 60s for the eastern plains.

Monday through Wednesday...Models have been very consistent over the
past three days on bringing an upper low pressure trough across the
West Coast on Monday. Southwest flow aloft will draw moisture up
into the state, and showers are forecast to return to the higher
terrain. The upper trough and associated gusty winds cross the state
early Tue, with northwest flow aloft then settling in for Tue and
Wed. Snow is expected along the Continental Divide starting Monday,
then as the upper flow shifts to the NW the best area for snow will
then shift to the central mts, and at this time it looks as if the
higher elevations of Lake and Chaffee counties may see 3 to 6 inches
of new snow through Wed. Mon will likely be the warmest day of the
extended period as stronger winds boost temps into the mid to upper
60s for the plains, and mid 40s to the 50s for the high valleys. Tue
and Wed will be slightly cooler, with max temps across the plains
losing 5 to 10 degrees.

Thursday and Friday...Temporary ridge over the region on Thu will
provide a dry day, then another upper disturbance will cross the
northern Rockies for Fri. This will bring a return of pcpn to the
central mts beginning Fri aftn. No big change in the max temps is
expected either day, with highs in the 40s and 50s for the high
valleys, and in the upper 50s to upper 60s for the plains. Moore

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Sunday afternoon)
Issued at 1021 AM MST Sat Feb 4 2017

VFR KCOS...KPUB and KALS TAF sites next 24 hours under brisk
westerly flow aloft. Main concern will be brisk westerly winds at
KCOS and KPUB. Winds have been gusting from the west up to about
40 mph at KCOS and 50 mph at KPUB. Winds of this caliber will
continue into mid afternoon and then start to gradually decrease
to less than 15 mph after 00z and less than 10 mph after 03z.
Continued inversion in the San Luis Valley should keep surface
winds down at KALS.

Continental Divide will continue to see periods of snow and
blowing snow through early afternoon. Activity will decrease
and retreat to mainly areas north of Monarch Pass late this
afternoon through tonight. On Sunday, just some spotty activity
over the Divide north of Monarch Pass early, then coming to an
end as upper high pressure builds in over the flight area. Pilots
crossing the Divide will encounter periods of MVFR, IFR and LIFR
flight conditions in snow and blowing snow.
