...HEAVY SNOW AND STRONG WINDS TO IMPACT NORTH-CENTRAL AND 
NORTHEAST COLORADO LATE TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY MORNING...

.A storm system moving over Colorado will bring moderate to heavy
snowfall starting in the mountains late tonight, then spreading 
over the plains Thursday morning into the afternoon. Winds gusting
up to 55 mph across the plains will create hazardous travel 
conditions especially Thursday afternoon and Thursday night. The 
strongest winds will occur just east of I-25, while the heaviest 
snow may occur in and near the Front Range Foothills and Palmer 
Divide. Very heavy snow is expected Thursday afternoon with
snowfall rates of 1 to 3 inches per hour possible. Precipitation 
will begin as rain Thursday morning and then change to snow during
the late morning and early after. This leads to low confidence in
snow.

Stay tuned to the National Weather Service for the latest updates
regarding this storm.

...HEAVY SNOW AND STRONG WINDS TO IMPACT NORTH-CENTRAL AND
NORTHEAST COLORADO THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY MORNING...

..A storm system moving over Colorado will bring moderate to heavy
snowfall to the mountains this morning, then spreading over the
plains changing rain over to heavy snow this morning and into the
early afternoon. Winds gusting up to 55 mph across the plains 
will create hazardous travel conditions especially this afternoon 
and evening. The strongest winds will occur just east of I-25, 
while the heaviest snow may occur in and near the Front Range 
Foothills and Palmer Divide. Snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per 
hour are possible. Precipitation beginning as rain and low 
confidence in temperatures are leading to lower confidence in the 
total snow amounts. However confidence in the significant impact 
of the snow and strong wind is high.

Stay tuned to the National Weather Service for the latest updates
regarding this storm.

more south and southeasterly this afternoon. By 06Z tonight a
cold front is moving south across the CWA with decent upslope
winds behind it by Thursday morning at 12Z. For moisture, it
increases significantly this afternoon and this evening for the
CWA. There is actually some pretty fair CAPE progged in the
mountains by late morning, then there is even some out of the
plains this afternoon into the early evening hours. Will put a
slight chance of thunder in appropriate areas. For pops, will
increase them from west to east this afternoon and evening.
"Likely" or better pops for all the CWA will be the rule after 06z
tonight. It will be all snow in the mountains this afternoon
through tonight. For the plains, thickness fields and forecast
soundings show liquid precipitation to fall through much of
tonight as the cold air doesn't get into the CWA until around dawn
Thursday. For highlights will go with Winter Storm Warnings in
Zones 33 and 34 and an Advisory for zone 31 from 00Z this late
afternoon into Thursday. For temperatures, today's highs are 2-5 C
warmer than Tuesday's were.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday)

At the beginning of Thursday morning, an upper trough down along
the southern Colorado state border will deepen into a closed low
near the CO/KS state border by noon. This will make QG upward
motion peak over the northeastern corner during the morning.
Widespread snow will be occurring over the mountains but will be
getting heavier as a batch of high moisture moves up from the
southwest. The snow will start moving east into the foothills, and
therefore have started the Warning for the foothills at 12z/6am. At
the surface, a deepening low over southeastern Colorado will lift
northeast into Kansas by noon. Moisture from the Great Plains
wrapping into the state will produce some areas of fog across the
plains. Colder air will be dropping down over the urban corridor
on the backside of the low, however forecast soundings show a
drizzle set up early in the morning, as temperatures will still be
warm and moisture depth shallow. By mid morning, the upper system
moves east and easterly upslope flow deepens into the area,
increasing snowfall rates into the foothills. Around the same
time, a wedge of cold air pushes south across the mountains and
urban corridor to change rain over to snow...most likely after 10
am. With continual deepening of the upslope flow and colder air
dropping in from the north, snowfall will spread east across the
plains through the afternoon. Snowfall rates could be quite heavy
during the late morning and into the afternoon. As the surface low
is deepening into Kansas and the upper part is stacking on top,
strong northerly winds will blow across the area, with gusts of 45
mph possible. This might produce near blizzard conditions over
the eastern plains, however models have ever so slightly slowed
the eastward progression of the system, and have slightly warmer
temperatures. So at this point, its hard to have the amount of
confidence to change the Winter Storm Watch into another highlight
at this point.

As the system moves further east Thursday evening and QG motion
turns downward quickly, snow will be decreasing. The strong winds
will continue into the evening, continuing to be upslope into the
Palmer Divide and the foothills. Skies will be clearing from the
north, and temperatures will drop into the teens to single digits
over the eastern plains, while they stay warmer over the urban
corridor under the clouds and light snow.

The parent upper low over the Great Basin will continue to remain
nearly stationary through Friday while filling in before lifting
east northeast across the area. It will continue to feed moisture
into the state, for light snow over the mountains, with a slight
chance into the urban corridor. Friday's temperatures will remain
cold in upslope flow, before warmer temperatures are able to push
in as lee side surface low forms in the area.

Model guidance is less than favorable over the weekend and into
the early week, but overall west to southwesterly flow should be
the main flow to keep warming temperatures through the period.
Generally it will be dry except scattered daily showers in the
mountains Sunday and Monday, before the chance increase Tuesday
and Wednesday.

...DENSE FOG ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY
MORNING...

...WINTER STORM WATCH IN EFFECT FROM WEDNESDAY EVENING
THROUGH LATE THURSDAY NIGHT FOR NORTHEASTERN AND NORTH CENTRAL
COLORADO...

This hazardous weather outlook is for northeast and north central
Colorado.

.DAY ONE...Tonight

Widespread fog will be found across the eastern plains overnight,
with visibilities dropping to a quarter mile or less. Drivers will
need to use caution, drive slower and use low beam lights in
these denser areas of fog. The fog should lift and dissipate by
mid Wednesday morning.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday

Warm and dry conditions across the plains with strong southerly
winds will increase fire weather concerns across Elbert and
Lincoln counties. Isolated thunderstorms may occur across the
mountains Wednesday afternoon, spreading onto the northern plains
late afternoon into the evening. Main hazards would be lightning
and strong gusty winds.

A strong storm system will push across the area from late
Wednesday evening through Thursday evening. Widespread snow will
begin in the mountains Wednesday evening, with rain changing over
to snow across the plains starting Thursday morning, and strong
northerly winds gusting up to 40 mph. Widespread snow in the
mountains will likely be heaviest along the Front Range mountains
and foothills, mainly north of I-70. Moderate snow amounts are
expected across the plains with localized areas of heavy snow.
Precipitation will decrease quickly in the evening with cold
overnight lows in the teens to single digits.

Lighter mountain snow showers will still occur Friday, with a
chance over the urban corridor. After warmer and drier conditions
Saturday and Sunday, another system will bring additional
precipitation and colder temperatures Sunday into Monday.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will not be needed today or tonight.
