Area forecast discussion, Dec 20, 10:24 AM MST, 4 hours 27 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Pueblo CO 1024 AM MST Tue Dec 20 2022 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 343 AM MST Tue Dec 20 2022 Key Messages: 1. One more full quiet day in store. 2. Possible dusting of snow in the Sawatch Mountains. Today... This will be the last full day of near seasonally normal temperatures before the upcoming extreme cold weather event. West to northwesterly flow aloft continues over the region. Some light downsloping off the eastern face of the mountains will once again warm temperatures to around seasonal norms over the plains. This will also have humidities hovering around 15 percent along the I-25 Corridor. However, the winds will be mostly light and diurnal, so there will be very little concern for any critical fire weather. High temperatures this afternoon will be in the 40s in the plains, except for 33 degrees over the residual snow on the ground in Crowley, Bent and Otero counties. The mountains and mountain valleys will be mostly in the 30s. Tonight into early Wednesday morning... Winds will continue to be light and diurnal on through the night. There will be a bit more cloud cover over the plains, so overnight low temperatures will be a couple of degrees warmer than last night, but still just below seasonal norms. There is a chance of a dusting of snow in the Sawatch Mountains, but accumulations should be negligible. Overnight low temperatures will be in the teens and 20s along the I- 25 Corridor eastward, except for single digit readings over the residual snow on the ground in Crowley, Bent and Otero counties. Low temperatures in the mountains and mountain valleys will be mostly in the single digits. -Riser .LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday) Issued at 343 AM MST Tue Dec 20 2022 Key Messages: 1) Arctic front arrives Wednesday evening, with cold air pouring south across the area overnight and Thursday, accompanied by gusty north winds. 2) Brief window for light snow Wednesday night into Thursday morning following the frontal passage. 3) Strong winds possible over the Sangres Wednesday night into midday Thursday as upper jet moves across the area. 4) Bitter cold Friday morning, before slow but persistent warming trend begins over the holiday weekend into next week. Overall, biggest change to the forecast was to add a High Wind Watch to the Sangres for Wed night/Thu morning, otherwise only some relatively small adjustments to winds/temps/pops based on latest model guidance. Wednesday, upper jet digs southward into the area, with deepening lee surface trough and increasing wly downslope winds along and east of the mountains. Set-up should boost max temps upward, especially along and east of I-25, where mixing will likely be better than the past few days. Low risk of some near critical fire weather conditions along I-25 in the afternoon, though humidity may stay just above thresholds in the 15-20 percent range, so no fire weather highlight issued at this point. By Wed afternoon, snow showers will break out along the Continental Divide, as upward vertical motion increases ahead of the digging jet. Arctic front races south through the area Wed evening, and we like the trend of models continuing to speed up frontal passage the past few runs, as once air mass this cold and dense begins to move, not much will stop it. Expect nly gusts 40-50 mph behind the boundary, with a impressively quick drop in temps from the 30s/40s around sunset to near/below zero by midnight. Wind chills will quickly fall toward 40 below as well, especially across the plains and Palmer Divide. Light snow likely to break out fairly quickly behind the front, with perhaps an inch or so by sunrise Thu before upper jet forcing shifts quickly east. Main change to Wed night forecast was to add a High Wind Watch to the Sangres, as upper jet moves overhead and forecast winds over the peaks increase into the 50-80 kt range. Thursday, any lingering snow tapers to flurries with clouds clearing by afternoon, and expect little additional accumulation past mid-morning. Kept some areas of blowing snow near the Palmer Divide into the early afternoon, though we may not get enough snow to cause much widespread blowing snow, so kept mention of lower visibility limited for now. Temps Thu will likely struggle to reach much above zero along and east of the mountains, though trend of NBM and 00z statistical guidance was slightly warmer than the past few model runs. Winds will slowly diminish by afternoon, but will still be breezy enough to produce dangerously cold wind chills through the day. Bitter cold Thu night/Fri morning, though given lack of deep snow cover and potential for some high level cloudiness to spread back in early Fri morning, will keep readings mostly above minus 20f at this point. Fri/Sat, slow warming trend develops as surface ridge slides east and heights build across the western U.S. Weak energy may bring back some snow showers to the central mountains late Fri, though only light snow is expected. Followed blended guidance for the most part for temps, though will acknowledge that at least some statistical guidance is much colder for maxes, especially on Fri. From Sun onward, western ridge holds, with most Arctic air shunted eastward. Still a few waves in nw flow aloft to keep on/off snow showers going over the central mountains, though nothing too significant expected. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday afternoon) Issued at 1023 AM MST Tue Dec 20 2022 VFR conditions are expected at all three TAF sites, KCOS, KPUB, and KALS, for the next 24 hours. Winds will be mostly light and will follow diurnal trends. Mid-level cloud cover will move over the region for this afternoon, and clear out through the overnight hours. Gusty westerly winds are expected for tomorrow afternoon at all three TAF sites. && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

Daytime high temperatures will struggle to warm above zero on Thursday, and lows will fall into the negative teens Friday morning. Wind chills will be dangerously cold, with values as low as 40 below zero possible Wednesday night and early Thursday. This airmass will also bring light snow to the region Wednesday night and Thursday morning, though most accumulations will be an inch or less. Now is the time to be thinking about preparations on how to protect infrastructure and yourself from this high impact cold air outbreak. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Weather spotters will not be needed today or tonight. RISER/10
