Area forecast discussion, Jun 7, 2:09 PM MST, 3 hours 26 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO 309 PM MDT MON JUN 7 2010 .SHORT TERM... (TONIGHT AND TOMORROW) ...SOME STRONG THUNDER POSSIBLY OUT EAST...WINDY TONIGHT FAR E PLAINS...SVR TOMORROW I-25 CORRIDOR... CURRENTLY...BOUNDARY BETWEEN THE MUCH DRIER WARM AIR AND THE MOIST AIR EXTENDS ALONG THE FRONT RANGE THEN EASTWARD ONTO THE PALMER DIVIDE ABOUT AS FAR E AS THE EL PASO/LINCOLN COUNTY LINE...AND THEN BACK TOWARD PUEBLO AND THEN SEWD FROM THERE ONTO THE PLAINS. THE BOUNDARY OVER THE PALMER HAS BEEN MOVING SLOWLY WWD WITH TIME. RADAR SHOWS SCTD TSRA OVER THE RATON MESA S OF THE CO STATE LINE...ALSO SCTD SHOWERS/TSRA OVER THE LA GARITAS. REST OF TODAY AND THIS EVENING... MAIN CONCERN WILL BE EAST OF THE BOUNDARY WHERE PLENTY OF LLVL MSTR WILL ALLOW FOR A FEW STRONGER STORMS TO DEVELOP. BEST CHANCE WILL BE OVER KIOWA AND BACA/E LAS ANIMAS COUNTIES. SIMULATIONS HAVE BEEN SHOWING BEST CHANCE THESE LOCATIONS AND GIVEN TRENDS AND OBS BELIEVE THIS SCENARIO STILL VALID. WITH DWPTS INCREASING OVER THE MTNS...ISOLATED TO SCTD ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE OVER THE HIGHER TRRN...ESPECIALLY THE N SAN JUANS. WITH THE STRONG W WINDS OVER PUB AND KCOS TEMPS HAVE SKYROCKETED WELL INTO THE 90S. BOUNDARY MAY WORK BACK WEST OVER KPUB AND WE MAY COOL DOWN A TAD BUT KCOS WILL LIKELY REMAIN WARM UNTIL DEEPER CIRRUS MOVES OVERHEAD LATE THIS AFTERNOON FROM MTN CONVECTION. LATER TONIGHT... ALL SHORT RANGE SIMULATIONS SHOW IT WILL GET RATHER QUITE BREEZY OVER THE FAR E PLAINS TONIGHT AND HAVE PUT BREEZY CONDITIONS IN THE GRIDDS. MAIN AFFECT OF THIS WILL BE TO KEEP MIN TEMPS ON THE WARM SIDE WITH LOWS LIKELY IN THE 70S FAR E PLAINS. BY LATER TONIGHT SURGE WILL BE WORKING SWD AND EXPECT THE FRONT TO CROSS KCOS PRIOR TO SUNRISE. DONT THINK THERE WILL BE THAT MUCH CLOUDS WITH IT ALTHOUGH WE MAY SEE A BKN050 DECK ON THE PALMER DVD DURING THE EARLY MORNING. TOMORROW... SVR STORMS ARE A GOOD BET BY MID TO LATE AFTERNOON ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR. FLOW WILL QUICKLY GO UPSLOPE AFTER THE FRONT GOES BY AND EXPECT ENE SFC WINDS BY 21Z ALONG THE INTERSTATE. SHOULD BE PLENTY OF LLVL MSTR IN PLACE AND WITH 25-35KTS OF 500 MB FLOW STORMS SHOULD ORGANIZE INTO ROTATING HAILERS BY LATE AFTERNOON. THINGS MAY BE A BIT TOO STABLE FARTHER EAST SO EXPECT GREATEST THREAT ALONG THE CORRIDOR AND PTS A BIT FARTHER EAST. TEMPS TOMORROW WILL BE QUITE A BIT COOLER THAN TODAY WITH TEMPS A GOOD 10F COOLER THAN TODAY. .LONG TERM... (TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY) TUESDAY NIGHT-WEDNESDAY NIGHT...NO BIG CHANGES TO CURRENT FORECAST THROUGH THIS PERIOD WITH A COOL AND UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS THE EASTERN HALF OF THE AREA AND REMAINING WARM AND MAINLY DRY OUT WEST. COLD FRONT LOOKS TO BE BACKED UP ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS AND ALONG THE COLORADO AND NEW MEXICO BORDER BACK INTO WESTERN KANSAS EARLY TUESDAY EVENING WITH DEVELOPING THUNDERSTORMS FOCUSED ON THE BOUNDARY AND WITH CAPES CONTINUED TO BE PROGGED BETWEEN 1500-2000 J/KG AND BULK SHEARS OF 35-45KTS...SHOULD SEE SEVERE STORMS...WITH THE MAIN THREAT BEING LARGE HAIL...ONGOING THROUGH THE LATE EVENING. WITH LOW LEVEL UPSLOPE AND MOISTURE IN PLACE WILL SEE STRATUS DEVELOPING OVERNIGHT ACROSS THE PLAINS AND WITH H7 FLOW TURNING MORE WESTERLY OVERNIGHT...CANT RULE OUT A FEW WAA SHOWERS AS WELL. LOOKING AT A DAY 2 SEVERE WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS THE PLAINS AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING AS SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL RETURN FLOW KEEPS LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IN PLACE WITH STORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE EASTERN MTS IN THE AFTERNOON SPREADING ACROSS THE FAR SE PLAINS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT. WITH THE MAINLY DRY AND HOT CONDITIONS ACROSS THE WESTERLY HALF OF THE AREA AND STEEP LAPSE RATES...WILL SEE BREEZY WEST WINDS OF 15 TO 30 MPH MIXING DOWN ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. CURRENT FUELS PAGE CONTINUES TO HAVE CRITICAL FUELS ACROSS THE SAN LUIS VALLEY (224) AND NOW INDICATES DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS FIRE WEATHER ZONES 220...221 AND 225. WITH THAT SAID...WILL ISSUE A FIRE WX WATCH FOR ZONES 220 AND 224 FOR WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND LEAVE OUT 221 AND 225 AS WINDS LOOK TO BE MARGINAL FURTHER EAST. THURSDAY-MONDAY...DID NOT CHANGE MUCH THROUGH THIS PERIOD AS WELL AS LATEST MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW RUN TO RUN DIFFERENCES WHICH WOULD HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON SENSIBLE WEATHER OVER THE WEEKEND...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE PLAINS. AT ANY RATE...WARM AND DRY SW FLOW AHEAD OF AN EASTERN PAC SYSTEM DIGGING ACROSS THE WEST COAST THURSDAY WILL ALLOW FOR ANOTHER HOT DAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 90S TO AROUND 100 EXPECTED ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS FOR THURSDAY. LATEST GFS DOES NOT DIG SYSTEM AS FAR SOUTH AND KEEPS DRY SW FLOW ACROSS THE PLAINS ON FRIDAY AND EARLY SATURDAY BEFORE THE SYSTEM LIFTS OUT ACROSS THE ROCKIES THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. ECMWF CONTINUES TO BE THE STRONGEST WITH THE SYSTEM DIGGING AN UNSEASONABLY STRONG UPPER LOW ACROSS THE DESERT SW ON SATURDAY BEFORE SLOWLY LIFTING THE SYSTEM OUT ACROSS THE ROCKIES THROUGH MONDAY...OWNING TO BETTER CHANCES OF PRECIP AND COOLER WX ACROSS THE AREA. WITH CONTINUED MODEL DIFFERENCES LIKELY....WITH WAIT FOR BETTER RUN TO RUN CONSISTENCY BEFORE MAKING WHOLESALE CHANGES FOR THE WEEKEND. -MW && .AVIATION... FOR KCOS... EXPECT WESTERLY WINDS TO CONTINUE AT KCOS INTO EARLY EVENING. T/TD SPREADS LARGE SO DO NOT EXPECT ANY PRECIP KCOS NEXT 12 HOURS. COULDS SEE SOME VIRGA TO PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS IF ANY STORM SURVIVES COMING OFF PIKES PEAK. LATE TONGHT...10Z-ISH...WE SHOULD SEE A FRONT COME DOWN FROM NE CO. MAY SEE A BKN DECK WITH IT WITH BASES 040-050. THIS DECK SHOULD BREAK UP BY MID MORNING. BY LATE AFTERNOON FLOW WILL GO UPSLOPE WITH STRONG THUNDER LIKELY BY MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. FOR KPUB... BOUNDARY IS JUST EAST OF KPUB BUY A FEW MILES AS PER LATEST 88D IMAGE AT 3PM. W OF THIS BOUNDARY WINDS ARE GUSTY FROM THE WEST WHILE EAST OF THIS BOUNDARY WINDS HAVE A MORE SE COMPONENT. GUIDANCE IDICATES THIS BOUNDARY WILL RETREAT WWD AND WINDS SHOULD SHIFT BACK TO ESE LATER THIS AFTERNOON. CANT RULE OUT AN ISOLD TSRA OVER KPUB LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. HOWEVER ANY TSRA WOULD BE HIGH BASED WITH VIRGA AND ASSOCIATED GUSTY WINDS MAIN CONCERN. FOR TOMORROW...FROPA WILL OCCUR AROUND SUNRISE WITH LLVL MSTR ON THE INCREASE. EXPECT STRONG THUNDER BY LATE TOMORROW AFTERNOON. KALS...EXPECT MAINLY ISOLD TSRA THIS AFTERNOON EARLY EVENING AND ALSO TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... FIRE WEATHER WATCH FROM WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING FOR COZ220-224. && 34/23
