Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Pueblo CO
229 PM MDT Sat Jun 1 2019

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Sunday)
Issued at 227 PM MDT Sat Jun 1 2019

An upper level low is expected to remain over southern CA through
Sun.  Keeping west to southwest flow aloft over southern CO.

Scattered thunderstorms are expected to be tracking across the
southeast plains in the evening hours, with the potential for
a few severe storms, especially over the far southeast plains.
Over the mtns and high valleys, isolated to scattered storms are
expected this evening. By midnight, most of the showers and storms
are expected to dissipate, however the forecast models indicate the
possibility of some lingering showers or storms.  Toward Sun
morning, the NAM shows a weak upper disturbance entering south
central CO and then tracking northeastward acrs the state into the
afternoon. As a result, the NAM develops are area of precip late
tonight over the southern San Luis Valley and over the Sangre de
Cristo Mtns.

Sun should be similar to today, with showers and thunderstorms
developing, mostly for the afternoon and evening hours.  With dew
points in the 50s over the far southeast plains and CAPE values
exceeding 2000 J/kg, there will again be the potential for some
severe storms over the southeast plains.  High temps on Sun should
range from the upper 70s to mid 80s across the southeast plains, and
in the 70s in the high valleys.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday night through Saturday)
Issued at 227 PM MDT Sat Jun 1 2019

Warm with daily thunderstorm chances through mid week.

Sunday night...Ongoing convection is expected to continue into the
overnight hours before exiting into KS. The potential for large hail
of greater than one inch and damaging winds in excess of 50 kts will
also remain possible, but these threats should diminish some after
sunset due to the loss of daytime heating.

Monday and Tuesday...A closed upper low located in southern CA is
expected to remain nearly stationary through Tuesday morning before
inching eastward into AZ. This will allow for the ridging and
southwesterly flow to continue over CO. Afternoon convection
initiating over the higher terrain, Palmer Divide, and Raton Mesa,
then spreading into the adjacent valleys and plains can be expected
both days as pieces of shortwave energy develop along the ridge both
days. Models are indicating that a dryline should be setting up
somewhere near the KS border on Monday, which could provide enough
of a trigger for stronger, possibly severe storms once again. There
should be enough CAPE and adequate deep layer shear to produce
rotating thunderstorms along and ahead of the dryline. The question
is: where will this dryline set up? CO or KS? After a small dip in
temperatures on Sunday, afternoon highs are expected to rebound a
few degrees into the mid to upper 80s across the plains and the mid
to upper 70s in the high valleys.

Wednesday and Thursday...The closed low is expected to finally
progress eastward and pass to our south. As the low moves east, it
should become more of an open wave before closing off again near the
OK and TX panhandles. Enough moisture and instability are expected
to be available to initiate another round of showers and
thunderstorms on Wednesday. Some more spotty precipitation will also
be possible on Thursday as the system moves farther away from the
area, but should be mainly relegated to the higher terrain. High
temperatures are expected to reach the low 80s over the plains and
low to mid 70s in the high valleys.

Friday and Saturday...Ridging should build into the area on Friday
and continue into Saturday. As of the latest guidance, the chances
for precipitation is expected to be rather low both days as flow
aloft is expected to be fairly weak. Temperatures should reach the
mid to upper 80s across the plains and mid 70s in the high valleys.

With the longer stretch of warmer weather and periodic precipitation
expected, snow melt should accelerate. The accelerated snowmelt will
increase the probability of flood potential across the region, which
will be monitored.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Sunday evening)
Issued at 227 PM MDT Sat Jun 1 2019

Showers and thunderstorms will be possible into the early evening at
KCOS, KPUB and KALS, with strong outflow wind gusts possible. There
will be the potential for low clouds (MVFR or maybe IFR conditions)
at KCOS and KPUB, late tonight. With some uncertainty as to whether
these conditions will develop or not, will leave the late night
ceiling at a low VFR height. If these low clouds develop, they are
expected to last until around 11Z to maybe 14Z.  Some models are
showing the potential for some showers or maybe even thunderstorms
in the KALS vicinity after about 08Z tonight.  Showers and
thunderstorms will be possible again at the terminal sites Sun
afternoon.

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

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will be possible across southern
Colorado today. One or two storms could become severe this
afternoon and evening across the southeast plains, east of
Interstate 25. Hail up to the size of half dollars, and wind
gusts up to 60 mph, will be the primary storm threats. The
greatest potential for severe thunderstorms will exist along the
Palmer Divide into Kiowa county and across southern portions of
the southeast plains including Las Animas and Baca counties
between 2 PM and 8 PM.

The main threats with storms occuring west of Interstate 25 today,
will be lightning, local wind gusts up to 50 mph and brief
moderate to heavy rainfall.

Warming temperatures will lead to increased snow melt across the
high country, and water flows in creeks and streams are expected to
continue increasing over the next 24 hours.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday

There will be a daily chance of afternoon and evening
thunderstorms, with the greatest potential tied to the mountains,
the Palmer Divide, and the Raton Mesa. The main threats expected
with any storms that do develop will be cloud to ground lightning,
locally heavy rain, small hail and wind gusts to around 45 mph.
There will be an increased chance of strong to severe storms
across the eastern plains on Sunday, and possibly on Monday.
Also, storms that develop over the newer burn scars, especially
the Junkins, Hayden Pass and Spring burn areas could cause
localized flash flooding.

Temperatures are forecast to climb to above seasonal averages
this weekend and into the middle of next week, which is expected
to boost the rate of melting of the current high mountain snowpack
across southern Colorado. This could lead to increasing fast and
high flows in area streams and rivers.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will be
possible this afternoon and evening across the southeast plains.
