Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Pueblo CO
257 PM MST Tue Jan 4 2022

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday)
Issued at 254 PM MST Tue Jan 4 2022

...Another Windy Day Tomorrow, With Arctic Air Moving In By Late
Afternoon...

Currently...

Windy conditions prevailed over some regions of the forecast area
this afternoon, mainly in the typically wind prone areas in El Paso,
eastern Fremont, Pueblo counties. Wins were generally in the 20 to
30 knt range with gusts in the 40s. It was also windy across the
southern sections of the central mtns. Over the remainder of the
region, including most of the plains, the San Luis Valley (SLV), and
the southwest mtns, winds were relatively light.

Except for passing bands of cirrus, skies were clear over most of
the region. However, cloudiness was more prevalent along the divide,
especially the central mtns.

Rest of Today...

Winds in wind prone area are gradually expected to weaken over the
area, especially lower elevations towards sunset. However winds will
likely keep up through the evening hours over the higher elevations
of the central and southern mtns, and the Pikes Peak region. Given
this, will allow the high wind warning which is in effect for a few
parts of the region to expire at 00 UTC (5 pm) this evening.

Tonight...

Only areas of windy conditions will be mtn top region, excluding the
SW mtns. Snow will begin to ramp up across the central mtns, with
the brunt of it generally north of Cottonwood Pass. Otherwise,
anticipate a cold night across the fcst area, with lows in the 20s
along the I-25 corridor and 10s over the far eastern plains. The SLV
should once again see single digit values while the remainder of the
higher terrains will see mostly tens, with single digits mtn top
levels.

Tomorrow...

Another windy day is anticipated over the entire region. Tomorrows
wind event will likely be more widespread than todays as all of the
fcst area will likely see breezy to very windy conditions. There is
some uncertainty regarding how windy it will get as the HRRR wants
to bring in some very strong winds across the Ramparts/Pikes Peak
and brings some of these stronger gusty down into NW Pueblo county.
The Sangre and the top of the Wets also are fcst to see some winds
above hurricane force. However, other guidance is not a strong as
the HRRR. For now, I have it quite windy in these area, but not as
strong at the HRRR fcst. Over the remainder of the region, it will
be quite breezy to windy, with gusts in teh 25 to 35 knt range over
the remainder of the plains and SLV, and 35 to 50 knts the rest of
the mtns.

Snow will be falling across the central mtns, and as discussed
above, it is going to be quite windy. Winter weather highlights are
in effect for the central mtns along with the lower elevations of
Lake County. Several additional inches of wind blown snow are near
certain.

By mid to late afternoon, a strong arctic front is going to push
south of the Palmer Divide and this will bring in much colder air
into the region. Snow showers will be possible over northern El Paso
county by rush hour, and travel may become more cumbersome for those
commuters on I-25 going across the I-25 Gap Project. Before the
front goes by, we should see max temps in the 40s to M50s across the
plains, with the warmest temps over the southern I-25 corridor
region. \/Hodanish

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 254 PM MST Tue Jan 4 2022

...Key Messages

- Snow continuing Wednesday night into Thursday mainly across the
central mountains.

- Chances for light snow remain Wednesday night across the Palmer
Divide and areas east/southeast into Kiowa county.

- Gusty northerly winds and much colder air arrive Wednesday night,
with area wide subzero wind chills appearing likely across the
plains.

- Additional light snow chances this Saturday and Saturday night
across the higher elevations and adjacent locations...

Strong mid/upper jet along with more energetic flow anticipated to
slide southeast into the region at the start of the period, while a
strong cold front ushers in a much colder air mass. This should
allow some increases in snow intensity across the central mountains,
with moderate to occasionally heavy snow expected Wednesday night.
Snow amounts during this time have been slightly increased, with the
Winter Storm Warnings and Advisory across the central mountains and
Lake county still warranted. As the stronger ascent shifts east
Thursday morning, anticipate snow intensity to weaken with much of
the impactful snow ending by around midday.

The arrival of the cold front is anticipated right around the start
of the period, with strong CAA expected through the evening. The
arrival of this front across the plains will be noted by this much
colder air, but also with strong northerly winds. Made some
adjustments but may still be a little light on the winds, especially
during FROPA. Current forecast has winds gusting to around 45 mph,
but could easily see gusts briefly higher, up to around 55 mph in
the evening. In the wake of this front, increasing large scale
ascent along with upslope flow and some other mesoscale forcing will
support developing snow along the Palmer Divide and areas to the
east/southeast into Kiowa county Wednesday evening/night. This
continues to look like only a period of light snow with minor
amounts up to around an inch, maybe two. Potential for heavier snow
remains just to the north though, and will continue to closely
monitor later trends. Lastly, cold temperatures with low wind chills
are appearing likely across the plains Wednesday night into Thursday
morning. These low temps with strong northerly winds will support
area wide subzero wind chills across the plains, with the lowest
expected over the far eastern plains. This could easily change
though, with further refinements to the winds and low temps expected
with later updates.

Cold air mass quickly retreats Thursday with warming temps expected
during the day and even into the night, as westerly flow remains in
place. Given the cold start, retreating air mass, and expected
setup, many locations will likely observe their forecast highs
during the evening. Above normal temperatures will return at the
start of the weekend, before another system moves across the region
on Saturday. Snow expected across the central mountains, with some
potential for precip across the eastern mountains and plains, though
confidence is low at this time.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening)
Issued at 254 PM MST Tue Jan 4 2022

VFR conditions are anticipate during the next 24 hours at each of
the 3 taf sites, KPUB, KALS and KCOS, but there is some uncertainty
for KCOS and KALS. First, some lower cigs and snow showers *may*
occur at the end of this period at KCOS as an arctic front moves
across the KCOS region around 21-22 UTC. For KALS, They got above
freezing today and some of the snow melted, and this added some low
level moisture into the boundary layer. This may lead to some GF at
this taf site during the early morning hours tomorrow.

KPUB should be VFR next 24 hours.

Very gusty winds at KCOS and KPUB will decrease prior to sunset
today. It will once again become windy at all 3 taf sites by
tomorrow afternoon. As mentioned already, an arctic front will move
across KCOS during the 21-22 UTC time frame tomorrow, and across KPUB
around 22-23 UTC.

High winds, with gusts up to 75 mph are expected over the Sangre de
Cristo Range and Pikes Peak region today, with gusts over 60 mph

considerable drifting and blowing snow. Light snow may be possible
Wednesday night into Thursday morning, from the Palmer Divide,
southeast across the Plains. Up to an inch may be possible north
of Highway 50. Extremely cold air will arrive Wednesday night into
Thursday morning, with temperatures near zero, and widespread wind
chill readings near 15 below zero.

Another upper storm system will impact the area over the weekend.
More mountain snowfall is expected, mainly for the La Garita
Range, north into the Central Mountains.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will be
possible today over and near the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and
across Teller and El Paso Counties.
