Area forecast discussion, Jan 21, 10:55 AM MST, 23 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Denver/Boulder CO 1055 AM MST Mon Jan 21 2019 .UPDATE... Issued at 1055 AM MST Mon Jan 21 2019 ...Blizzard Conditions for Parts of Northeast Colorado Tonight and Tuesday Morning... Winter storm and blizzard conditions to hit parts of northeast Colorado tonight and Tuesday. Models still having a hard time determining where this storm will reform east of the mountains. Water vapor satellite imagery showing the main circulation tracking east across southern Nevada at this time. This is more in line with the southern solution that the 00Z ECMWF is showing. The 12Z NAM shifted south, not as far as the ECMWF though, but the trend south is noteworthy. Will shift the forecast towards the more southern and slower track, which will result in heavier snow and more snow farther west and south. The 12Z GFS has continued with its quicker and northern track with this system, which isn't helping with the confidence on the storm track. Confident there will be a swath of 6 to 10 inches of snow with 40-50 mph winds, but location remains highly uncertain. Will base warnings and advisories on the stronger and southern track. Therefore will upgrade much of the Winter Storm Watch to a Blizzard Warning. Will also add a winter weather advisory westward into the Denver metro area and Greeley area. Some areas of this advisory may not receive any snow if the quicker and northern track prevails. && .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 420 AM MST Mon Jan 21 2019 There is a storm system which is moving into central Nevada early this morning which will move into Utah by midday. After that there is no consensus on exactly where an upper level low will move by tonight. The majority of models move an upper level low across srn Wyoming/nrn CO and into wrn NE/Nern CO by late tonight. The ECMWF is the only model that has an upper level low taking a more southern track and into east central CO by late tonight. Analysis of height falls and 250 mb warm pool would suggest a more southern track is certainly possible much like the ECMWF shows. Thus can't completely rule out its solution. Thus this leads to a very complicated forecast. If I were to believe the majority of models the only potential for decent snow across nern CO would be near the WY-NE border area with limited snowfall over the rest of the plains. Meanwhile the ECMWF solution would match up well with the current watch that is in place over portions of nern CO and would also lead to higher snowfall including portions of the Denver metro area. So the question is what do I do at this point? Considering overall confidence along with the timing of impacts over the plains (late this evening and overnight) will leave watch in place and add areas near the WY-NE border. Meanwhile there is still a potential for blizzard conditions late tonight over the plains and Palmer Divide as winds increase behind the system. As for the mtns as the system moves across later this aftn and tonight snowfall will increase as well with advisory amounts in most areas. Finally in advance of the storm system for today a sfc low will intensify over nern CO with gusty southwest winds over the Palmer Divide and possibly over the Denver area. As for highs there is a front over the far nern plains which will remain nearly stationary much of the day. Thus highs over the far nern corner may not get out of the upper 30s while temps further west and south reach to 55 to 60 degree range. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 420 AM MST Mon Jan 21 2019 At 12Z Tuesday morning, models show an upper closed low circulation over northwestern Kansas/south central Nebraska with an upper trough stretching southwestward across the CWA down into southwestern New Mexico. The upper trough is progged to move slowly eastward across the eastern half of the CWA through Tuesday with weak flow aloft. Strong northerly flow aloft is progged Tuesday night, the then strong northwesterly flow aloft is in place Wednesday and Wednesday night. The QG Omega fields have some upward vertical velocity in place Tuesday morning, then weak downward motion the rest of Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Weak upward motion moves in Wednesday afternoon and night. Strong north- northwesterly low level winds will continue over the plains on Tuesday into Tuesday evening. Normal drainage wind patterns are likely overnight Tuesday. Downsloping west and northwesterly winds are progged on Wednesday into the evening. Models have a cold front and low level upslope flow moving into the CWA around 09-12Z Thursday morning. For moisture, cross sections show Tuesday to be cloudy through about 18Z, then some partial clearing in the afternoon. It is fairly dry Tuesday night. Moisture increases again Wednesday and Wednesday night. The QPF fields have some measurable snow continuing over much of the CWA Tuesday morning. After 18Z, there is a mere tad remaining over the far east and in the high mountains through the day. The QPF fields show a return of measurable snowfall in the high mountains after 15Z on Wednesday continuing Wednesday night. There is also some over the plains after 06Z Wednesday night. For pops, will go with "likely"s Tuesday morning, then "chance"s in the mountains Tuesday afternoon. No pops Tuesday night, then I will increase them in the mountains on Wednesday, with "likely"s by afternoon and Wednesday night. Will go with "slight chance"s over the plains Wednesday night. Will also make sure blowing snow is mentioned over most of the plains on Tuesday. For temperatures, Tuesday's highs will be 5-11 C colder than today's highs. Wednesday's highs will be 3-6 C warmer than Tuesday's. For the later days, Thursday through Sunday, models continue to have a significant mean trough over much of North America all four days. The flow aloft will be strong and mainly northwesterly all four days. There will be moisture enough for some pops Thursday for much of the CWA and just over the mountains Thursday night though Saturday evening. Snowfall amounts will not be significant. Temperatures now look to be at or below seasonal normals through Saturday, then above normals by Sunday. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon) Issued at 1055 AM MST Mon Jan 21 2019 Heavy snow will be possible at KDEN and KAPA from 03Z through 18Z Tuesday. Forecasted snow amounts remain highly uncertain, but a period of heavy snow is likely for KAPA and KDEN. In addition to the snow, strong north winds will result in near blizzard conditions, mainly at KDEN. Visibility is expected to fall to a quarter mile under the heavier snow and blowing snow. So there could be an extended period of very low visibilities if the snow sets up over the airports. Expect snowfall of 4 to 8 inches, though confidence is low due to the uncertain storm track. && .BOU WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

This hazardous weather outlook is for northeast and north central Colorado. .DAY ONE...Today and Tonight A winter storm will move into the area tonight with snow increasing in the mountains by early evening and across the rest of the area by mid to late evening. Moderate to heavy snow may occur over portions of the northeast Plains and Palmer Divide by late evening and overnight. In addition north winds gusting to 50 mph will develop across the plains after midnight with very poor visibilities and possible blizzard conditions. Travelers should be prepared for snowpacked and slick road conditions. The strong winds will cause poor visibilities due to blowing snow. The worst conditions are expected to occur along Interstate 70 from around Watkins east to the Kansas border, and Interstate 25 from south of Denver to Monument Ridge. In addition I-76 may be affected as well from northeast of Denver to Sterling and Julesburg. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday Snow, strong winds and blowing snow will continue over the plains on Tuesday morning. Snow will end by noon, but the strong winds will continue to cause blowing snow. Travelers should be prepared for snowpacked and slick road conditions. The strong winds will cause poor visibilities due to blowing snow. There will be a chance of snow in the mountains Wednesday through Saturday evening with a slight chance of snow over the plains Wednesday night and Thursday. Significant accumulations are not expected. Temperatures will be near or below seasonal normals Tuesday through Saturday. Sunday's readings will warm up. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation will not be needed today or tonight.
