Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Pueblo CO
908 PM MDT Fri Jun 6 2025

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Severe thunderstorms likely through this evening across the southeast
  plains with all severe hazards possible.

- Warmer Saturday, with a decrease in storm chances, and only
  some isolated activity expected over the mountains and along
  the New Mexico border.

- Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms return to the
  region on Sunday, continuing through next week, while
  temperatures remain seasonably warm.

.UPDATE...
Issued at 901 PM MDT Fri Jun 6 2025

Updated to expire the Tornado Watch for Prowers, Baca and Las
Animas Counties at 9 PM. The two supercells have tracked
southeast into the Oklahoma Panhandle as of 9 PM, and the severe
threats associated with them have come to an end. There is a
weak line of showers/thunderstorms along the Highway 50 corridor
from Monarch Pass, to Pueblo West. For the most part this
activity is weak, and the HRRR guidance has it dissipating
through midnight. But a quick rain shower and lightning strike
will be possible through midnight. There is also a thunderstorm
tracking southeast into Kiowa County, which will continue
tracking southeast through 11 PM. Small hail and gusty winds
near 50 mph may be possible with this thunderstorm.  Mozley

&&

.SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Issued at 214 PM MDT Fri Jun 6 2025

Not much change in the latest thinking with a favorable evening
for severe thunderstorms across the southeast plains capable of
all hazard types from very large hail to damaging winds and even
a couple of tornadoes. HREF mean CAPE values are sitting around
1000-1500 J/kg, which is not too far off SPC Mesoanalysis
values. If dew points can maintain in the low 50s along the I-25
corridor around peak heating we could easily yield some higher
CAPE values per NAM soundings. Up to 2000+ J/kg will be possible
farther east across the plains with upper 50s to lower 60 dew
points. Impressive deep layer shears 50+ kts and favorable low
level helicities will continue to favor supercell development
with straight line hodographs suggest storm splits. Low level
hodograph curvature improves into the evening across the
eastern plains and SSCRAM output suggest unconditional tor
probabilities maximizing around LHX eastward after 00z. HREF
updraft helicities show some impressive swaths across the
southeast plains and Tornado watch will continue through 03z
with a possible need to extend for an hour across far southeast
plains until 04z.

Activity will gradually pull eastward through the evening and
exit eastern CO overnight. Will need to watch for possible
ground fog development overnight, particularly across the far
eastern plains.

Saturday will be a down day for thunderstorms, providing a much
needed break from severe thunderstorms of late. Upper trough
which is forcing today's convection will be east of the area
which ushers in some drier dew points and more subsident
conditions. There is another much weaker wave that glances by to
the northeast during the afternoon. Could see some isolated
thunderstorms across southern areas in the afternoon, but lower
CAPE suggests sub severe thunderstorms for now. Temperatures
will rebound around 5 degrees.  -KT

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Issued at 308 AM MDT Fri Jun 6 2025

Northern stream wave sends a cold front through the plains Sat
night/Sun morning, bringing a renewed surge of easterly upslope
winds by afternoon. Instability is modest (CAPE 500-1000 J/KG)
most locations, though higher dewpoints over the far sern
corner of the plans may boost CAPE toward 1500 J/KG by late day.
Overall, expect an upturn in t-storm coverage over the ern
mountains and across the plains Sun afternoon/evening, with few
strong storms possible in the more unstable air mass over the
far southeast. Max temps Sunday to drift downward a few degf
versus Sat, as cold front ushers in a slightly cooler air mass
over the ern half of the area.

Northwest flow aloft persists Mon/Tue across the region, with
afternoon/evening storms both days, most numerous over the
eastern mountains and across the plains. Upper ridge then shifts
east by mid/late week, with flow become more wly over CO.
Moisture remains in place, and with several weak short waves
progged to migrate through the western U.S., daily
shower/thunderstorm chances will continue. Temps will remain
seasonably warm through the period.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SUNDAY/...
Issued at 521 PM MDT Fri Jun 6 2025

KALS...VFR conditions for the next 24 hours. Winds will subside
this evening, become variable overnight. A few showers or
thunderstorms are possible across the San Luis Valley on
Saturday afternoon, with low confidence of anything impacting
the terminal.

KCOS and KPUB...showers will continue to shift east of the
terminals through 01-02z, with improving CIGS and VIS during
this period. VFR conditions are expected overnight. There is a
low probability of fog at KPUB late tonight. Winds will be
diurnally driven for Saturday at both terminals. Mozley

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

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Severe thunderstorms are likely again this afternoon and evening,
mainly from the I-25 Corridor eastward across the southeast
plains. Activity is expected to start around noon over the higher
terrain and Palmer Divide, but the most probable time window for
severe thunderstorms will be between 2 PM and 8 PM, and all modes
of severe weather will be possible. Large hail up to around 3
inches in diameter, and wind gusts of 60-80 mph are possible.
Tornadoes will be possible as well with the greatest risk east of
I-25. Flash flooding of urban areas and burn scars will be
possible if stronger storms impact those locations. Activity will
decrease along the I-25 corridor after 7 PM and will move out of
the southeast plains around Midnight.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday

Thunderstorms will become weaker and more isolated in coverage on
Saturday, then a better chance for storms develops for Sunday
through much of next week. The greatest hazards from any thunderstorms
in this period are expected to be small hail, gusty outflow
winds, heavy rainfall and lightning.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will
be likely over portions of the region.
