.SHORT TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Issued at 140 AM MDT Tue Jun 9 2026

Current water vapor imagery and upper air analysis is indicating
increasing southwest flow aloft across the region, with a short
wave trough lifting out across the Eastern Great Basin at this time.
Regional radars has the last of northeastern Colorado convection
moving into northwest Kansas, with low level moisture and easterly
outflow from previous storms backing across the plains at this time.
Current dew pts in the 50s to around 60F are in place across the
plains, save for the southern I-25 corridor with dew pts in the 20s
in Walsenburg (K4V1) and Trinidad (KTAD), where westerlies are still
prevailing.  Further west, dew pts are in the teens, 20s and 30s,
with a noticeable increase in available moisture across the Desert SW
and into the Eastern Great Basin ahead of the short wave.  Regional
satellite imagery does indicate increasing mid and upper level
moisture into south central Colorado, with some stratus developing
across portions of the plains.

For today into tonight...southwest flow continues to increase across
the region as the Eastern Great Basin shortwave continues to lift
out across the Northern Rockies later tonight.  Increasing mid and
upper level moisture and some uvv from the passing wave will help
to develop isolated to scattered showers and storms late this morning
into the late afternoon, with the best coverage across the southern
mtns into the Raton Mesa and southeast plains. Model soundings do
indicate inverted V soundings, as low level moisture mixes out across
the plains, owning to mainly virga and gusty winds expected with most
storms. However, further east, generally north and east of a Eads
to Kim line, HREF is indicating mean CAPE 800-1500 j/kg supporting
the potential for a strong/severe storm with strong wind gusts to
over 60 mph and marginally severe hail the main threats. Gusty
southwest winds of 25 to 45 mph develop across the region through
the late morning and afternoon, leading to a hodgepodge of Red Flag
Warnings, based on current fuel conditions, however, we have added
the San Luis Valley into the Red Flag Warning for today, as their
fuel status was downgraded to "critical" on Monday. With the expected
convective cloud cover, we did temper NBM highs a tad for today,
which better matches other statistical guidance.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Issued at 140 AM MDT Tue Jun 9 2026

Wednesday-Thursday...Moderate westerly flow remains progged across
the region on Wednesday, as another short wave translates across
the Northern Rockies, with said passing wave sending a cold front
across the plains on Thursday. Models remain consistent with dry
air in place across the region both days, with breezy westerly winds
on Wednesday leading to possible meteorological Critical Fire Weather
conditions across portions of the area once again, though have left
current Fire Weather Watch in tact for areas where fuels are deemed
critical. Highs on Wednesday to remain some 10 degrees above seasonal
levels, however did once again lower NBM a tad. Passing wave Wednesday
night sends a dry front across the plains, leading to near seasonal
temperatures across the plains on Thursday, with continued above
seasonal highs across the western half of the district.

Latest model data supports modest westerly flow across the region through
the early weekend, leading to at and above seasonal temperatures in place
across the region. Model data does support a slow increase in available
moisture across the plains, with increasing chances of afternoon showers
and storms, mainly across the eastern mtns and plains for Friday and
Saturday. Stronger passing systems across the Northern Tier will bring
cooler and more unsettled weather to the region Sunday into early next
week.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 1222 PM MDT Tue Jun 9 2026

Overall, dry with VFR conditions are expected across the
terminals this period. A small window for light showers does
appear likely for ALS at the start of the period, with any
additional development anticipated to stay away from COS and
PUB. There is a low chance that a stray shower could move across
COS and PUB, but confidence is low. If this did occur, some
slight enhancement to the winds and gusts would be observed.
However, winds are already expected to be strong for all sites
this afternoon, likely gusting from the south southwest up to 40
to 45 kt at times. Winds diminish later this evening, and will
be lighter for the remainder of the period.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 140 AM MDT Tue Jun 9 2026

Meteorological Critical Fire Weather Conditions are expected across
most of south central and southeast Colorado on Tuesday and Wednesday,
as drier air mixes across the region within breezy southwest flow
aloft. There remains a hodgepodge of Red Flag Warnings across
the district today, based on latest fuel status, though we have
added the San Luis Valley to today's warning, as fuel status was
downgraded to "critical" on Monday afternoon. In addition, we can't
rule out a few fire starts from lighting, with isolated to scattered
high based storms this afternoon, with the best coverage across the
southern mtns into the southern I-25 Corridor. We have left the Fire
Weather Watch in tact for Wednesday afternoon, as we have the most
confidence in rh conditions being reached, however winds, especially
across the eastern portions of the district may be marginal.
