AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO
236 PM MDT TUE JUN 12 2012

.SHORT TERM...
(TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY)

...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS REMAIN POSSIBLE ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS...

CURRENT WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND UPPER AIR ANALYSIS INDICATING
MODERATE WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT ACROSS THE REGION WITH ONE EMBEDDED
SHORT WAVE LIFTING OUT ACROSS THE NORTHERN ROCKIES AS ANOTHER WAVE
CONTINUES TO TRANSLATE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS. LEE
TROUGHING CURRENTLY DEVELOPING/STRENGTHENING ACROSS THE I-25
CORRIDOR WITH BREEZY SOUTHERLY WINDS IN PLACE ACROSS EASTERN
COLORADO AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE RETURN HAS BEEN
SLOWER AND HAS REMAINED FURTHER SOUTH AND EAST THAN PREVIOUS MODEL
RUNS...WITH DEW PTS IN THE UPPER 30S TO MID 40S ACROSS THE FAR SE
PLAINS WITH A FAIRLY SHARP GRADIENT AS DEW PTS ALONG AND WEST OF THE
I-25 CORRIDOR HAVE DROPPED INTO THE TEENS AND 20S.

THIS AFTERNOON-TONIGHT...NO BIG CHANGES IN CURRENT FORECAST THINKING
WITH SPC ISSUING A SVR THUNDERSTORM WATCH ACROSS PORTIONS OF SE
COLORADO WHICH COINCIDED WITH PREVIOUS THINKING OF GENERALLY EAST OF
A TRINIDAD TO LIMON LINE. WITH LEE TROUGHING DEEPENING ACROSS THE
EASTERN PLAINS...SHOULD CONTINUE TO SEE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ADVECT
INTO SOUTHEASTERN COLORADO WITH PROGGED CAPES OF 1500-2000 J/KG.
BULK SHEARS REMAIN IN THE 30-45KT RANGE ACROSS THE EASTERN
PLAINS...WHICH SHOULD SUPPORT A FEW SUPER CELLS PRODUCING LARGE HAIL
AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS ACROSS THE WATCH AREA THROUGH THE EARLY
EVENING. STORMS LOOK TO CONTINUE TO SPREAD SOUTH AND EAST INTO
WESTERN KANSAS AND THE PANHANDLE THROUGH THE LATE EVENING...AND
WITH THE MINOR EMBEDDED SHORT WAVE TRANSLATING ACROSS THE NORTHERN
ROCKIES...CANT RULE OUT ISOLATED HIGHER BASED STORMS ACROSS THE REST
OF THE EASTERN MTS AND IMMEDIATE ADJACENT PLAINS AS WELL. CONVECTIVE
OUTFLOW AND DEBRIS WILL HELP BRING BACK LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ACROSS
THE I-25 CORRIDOR OVERNIGHT...THOUGH ANY STRATUS DEVELOPMENT LOOKS
TO REMAIN ACROSS THE FAR EASTERN PLAINS.

WEDNESDAY...WEAK TO MODERATE WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT CONTINUES AS
ANOTHER EMBEDDED SHORT WAVE TRANSLATES ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER OF
STATES. MODELS DIFFER ON THE AMOUNT OF AVAILABLE MOISTURE RETURN
WITH THE NAM REMAINING THE WETTEST SOLUTION...BREAKING OUT
CONVECTION ACROSS ALL OF THE HIGHER TERRAIN IN THE AFTERNOON.
MODELS DO CONTINUE TO INDICATE AMPLE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ACROSS THE
THE FAR SE PLAINS WITH CAPES IN EXCESS OF 2000 J/KG ESPECIALLY
ACROSS FAR EASTERN LAS ANIMAS...BACA AND SOUTHERN PROWERS COUNTIES.
HOWEVER WITH WARMING ALOFT...MODELS INDICATING CIN IN PLACE THROUGH
THE AFTERNOON. MODELS ALSO INDICATING LESS SHEAR IN PLACE...WITH
STORMS THAT CAN DEVELOP BEING MORE PULSE LIKE...THOUGH STILL STRONG
TO MARGINALLY SEVERE. AT ANY RATE...HAVE FOLLOWED THE DRIER MODEL
SOLUTIONS KEEPING POPS MAINLY CONFINED TO THE SOUTHEAST MTS THROUGH
THE FAR SOUTHEAST PLAINS. WARMER AIR ALOFT CONTINUES TO MOVE INTO
THE AREA AND SHOULD SEE HIGHS ABOVE SEASONAL AVERAGES ONCE AGAIN.

.LONG TERM...
(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)

FLOW ALOFT WEAKENS AND SHIFTS FROM A SOUTHWEST COMPONENT AS AN UPPER
TROF DEEPENS AND DROPS INTO THE SOUTHWEST U.S.  HIGHER DEW
POINTS...IN THE 40S AND 50S STAYS IN ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS FOR
WEDNESDAY EVENING...THOUGH WITH WEAKENING FLOW ALOFT...DEEP LAYER
SHEARS REMAIN FAIRLY LOW (20-30 KTS).  SO A STRONG TO NEAR SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM ACROSS THE PLAINS WHERE CAPE VALUES REMAIN HIGH...IN
THE 1000-2000 J/KG RANGE...WOULDN'T BE OUT OF THE QUESTION.
HOWEVER...THINK THUNDERSTORMS IN THIS AREA WOULD BE MORE PULSEY IN
NATURE.

ON THURSDAY...WEAK BOUNDARY PUSHES SOUTHWARD THROUGH EASTERN
CO...WITH NAM AND GFS HANGING IT UP IN THE VICINITY OF NRN EL PASO
AND KIOWA COUNTIES IN THE AFTERNOON.  MAIN QUESTION...WILL BE HOW
QUICKLY MOISTURE WILL ADVECT BACK WESTWARD NORTH OF THIS FRONT.
NAM12 AND GFS REMAIN STINGY WITH DEW POINTS...WITH CAPE VALUES
ACROSS NRN EL PASO COUNTY REMAIN AROUND 500-800 J/KG...WITH HIGHEST
VALUES IN THE FAR NE CORNER BY 21Z.  KIOWA COUNTY MAY FAIR A LITTLE
BETTER...BUT IF BOUNDARY HANGS UP JUST TO THE NORTH...AS MODELS
SUGGEST...THEN ACTIVITY MAY REMAIN OFF TO THE NORTH UNTIL LATER
THURSDAY EVENING AS OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES SEND A REINFORCING SURGE INTO
THE AREA.  DEEP LAYER SHEARS COULD BE IN THE 30-40 KT RANGE NORTH OF
THE FRONT...SO ITS CONCEIVABLE THAT WE COULD SEE SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS THIS DAY ACROSS THESE AREAS.  WILL ALSO HAVE TO WATCH
THE FAR EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE PLAINS NEAR THE DRY LINE AS WELL
...THOUGH 0-6KM SHEARS MAY BE LESS IN THIS AREA FOR ORGANIZED SEVERE.
WESTERN AREAS WILL REMAIN LARGELY DRY...THOUGH SOME GUSTY WINDS AND
DRY LIGHTNING WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ISOLATED HIGH BASED THUNDERSTORMS.

DRY LINE SHIFTS EASTWARD FOR FRIDAY WHICH PUTS MORE OF SOUTH CENTRAL
AND SOUTHEAST COLORADO IN DRY BREEZY SOUTHERLY FLOW.  MAX TEMPS
SHOULD CLIMB WILL INTO THE 90S ONCE AGAIN ON THE PLAINS...WITH
GENERALLY 70S AND 80S FOR THE MTN COMMUNITIES.

NEXT UPPER TROF WILL MOVE ACROSS NRN CO/WY SOMETIME OVER THE
WEEKEND...WITH ECMWF FASTER THAN SLOWER GFS.  EVENTUALLY THIS MAY
SEND A FRONT THROUGH EASTERN CO...WITH ECMWF SUGGESTING AN EARLIER
TIMING ON SATURDAY...VS GFS WHICH HOLDS IT OFF UNTIL SOMETIME SUNDAY
NIGHT INTO MONDAY.  LOTS OF UNCERTAINTY HERE.  GFS SUGGESTS A BETTER
CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS ON
SATURDAY AS MID LEVEL MOISTURE FEEDS UP FROM THE SOUTH. THIS COULD
LEAD TO HEIGHTENED CONCERNS FOR DRY LIGHTNING ACROSS THE WEST...BUT
TOO SOON TO SAY AT THIS POINT. SUNDAY COULD BE A DRY BREEZY DAY WITH
POSSIBLE NEAR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR THE SAN LUIS
VALLEY AND SOUTHEAST MOUNTAINS...THEN SLIGHTLY COOLER WITH ANOTHER
UPSWING IN PRECIPITATION CHANCES FOR EASTERN AREAS FOR EARLY NEXT
WEEK. -KT

&&

.AVIATION...

MAIN CONCERNS REMAIN THE COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING...WITH CURRENT MODELS SUPPORTING A FEW POSSIBLE
HIGH BASED STORMS DEVELOPING WEST OF THE COS AND PUB TERMINALS
BETWEEN 21Z-01Z WITH STRONGER STORMS EXPECTED EAST OF THE I-25
CORRIDOR THROUGH THE LATE EVENING. THIS STORMS COULD SEND CONVECTIVE
OUTFLOWS ACROSS THE TERMINALS...THOUGH DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH CONFIDENCE
TO ADD MORE THAN VCTS AT BOTH COS AND PUB AT THIS TIME. WILL SEE
SOME LOW LEVEL MOISTURE RETURN ACROSS THE I-25 CORRIDOR
OVERNIGHT...THOUGH NOT EXPECTING AND STRATUS AT THIS TIME. FOR
ALS...STORMS LOOK TO REMAIN SOUTH AND EAST OF THE TERMINAL WITH
GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS 15-20KTS EXPECTED THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING.

LESS THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE CAN BE EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA
TOMORROW WITH VFR CONDITIONS AT ALL TERMINALS. -MW

.PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL...EAST
CENTRAL...SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST COLORADO.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING ACROSS THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS AND PLAINS...WITH THE BEST
COVERAGE OF STORMS EXPECTED FROM THE SOUTHERN SANGRE DE CRISTO
MOUNTAINS OUT ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHEAST PLAINS. A FEW STORMS COULD
BECOME SEVERE...PRODUCING HAIL TO ONE INCH IN DIAMETER OR GREATER
AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH...ESPECIALLY EAST OF A
LINE FROM TRINIDAD TO LIMON. FURTHER TO THE WEST...THE MAIN THREAT
FROM STORMS WHICH DO DEVELOP WILL BE LIGHTNING AND WIND GUSTS TO
NEAR 50 MPH...WITH SMALL HAIL POSSIBLE WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED ACROSS SOUTHERN COLORADO THROUGH SUNDAY. MOST STORMS WILL
PRODUCE LIGHTNING AND GUSTY WINDS...BUT A FEW STORMS ACROSS THE
EASTERN PLAINS COULD BECOME SEVERE PRODUCING HAIL AN INCH OR MORE
IN DIAMETER AND WIND GUSTS TO 60 MPH OR MORE. THURSDAY MIGHT BE
THE MOST LIKELY DAY FOR THIS TO OCCUR AS A SURFACE BOUNDARY MOVES
SOUTH THROUGH THE EASTERN COLORADO PLAINS.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET REPORTING CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS WILL BE
POSSIBLE OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN PLAINS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
