.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 656 AM MDT SUN AUG 4 2013

UPDATED GRIDS/FORECAST TO LOWER POPS AND SKY COVERAGE A BIT THIS
MORNING...BASED ON LATEST OBS. REST OF FORECAST LOOKS ON TRACK. ROSE

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 336 AM MDT SUN AUG 4 2013

...FLOODING CONCERNS CONTINUE...

CURRENTLY...BULK OF THE CONVECTION HAS MOVED EWD INTO KS...WITH JUST SOME
MODERATE SHOWERS LINGERING OVER THE KS BORDER COUNTIES. EXTENSIVE
STRATUS DECK IS COVERING THE PLAINS BUT NOT MUCH IN THE WAY OF FG
THUS FAR THIS MORNING. DEWPOINTS REMAIN IN THE UPPER 50S TO 60S OVER
THE PLAINS...AND EVEN MTS ARE IN THE 40S.

DO NOT SEE THE MOISTURE DISSIPATING TODAY...AND THE MONSOON WILL
REMAIN OVER THE AREA. FLOW WILL BE LIGHTER THAN YESTERDAY...WHICH
COULD ACCENTUATE FLOODING POTENTIAL FROM THE SLOWER MOVING STORMS.
ALSO...MANY SPOTS HAVE SATURATED SOILS FROM YESTERDAY'S RAIN. AM
PARTICULARLY CONCERNED ABOUT AREAS LIKE SE EL PASO COUNTY...WHICH
SAW AS MUCH AS 6 INCHES OF RAIN FROM THE STORMS ON SATURDAY. THE 00Z
WRF HITS THIS SAME AREA WITH SOME PRETTY STRONG CONVECTION LATE THIS
AFTERNOON OR EARLY EVENING. BURN SCARS ALSO REMAIN A TARGET.
HOWEVER...NO FRONT OR STRONG DISTURBANCE TODAY TO SET THINGS
OFF...AND IN FACT H7 TEMPS RISE A BIT AS SHORT WAVE RIDGING OVERRIDES
THE AREA. SO...DO NOT EXPECT THE STORMS TO BE AS NUMEROUS OR STRONG
TODAY. EXPECT THE USUAL DEVELOPMENT OF SCT STORMS BY NOONISH...WITH
CONVECTION SPREADING TO THE I-25 CORRIDOR BY MID AFTERNOON. LATEST
GUIDANCE ALL SUPPORTS FAIRLY GOOD COVERAGE ALONG THE I-25 CORRIDOR
LATE TODAY...SO HAVE BUMPED UP POPS A BIT FOR THAT AREA. UNLIKE
YESTERDAY...STORMS SHOULD WIND DOWN FAIRLY QUICKLY AFTER SUNSET THIS
EVE AS HEATING IS CUT OFF. TEMPS TODAY A BIT WARMER THAN ON
SATURDAY...WITH SOME LOWER 90S POSSIBLY HITTING THE PLAINS.

TONIGHT...SOME CLEARING EXPECTED OVERNIGHT...AND OVERNIGHT
CONDITIONS SHOULD BE A BIT COOLER WITH GENERALLY LIGHT WINDS. COULD
SEE SOME LINGERING ISOLD SHOWERS OR STORMS ESPECIALLY OVER THE SRN
MTS OVERNIGHT. ROSE

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 336 AM MDT SUN AUG 4 2013

THE MONSOON PLUME IS PRETTY MUCH GOING TO REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH
THE WEEK ALTHOUGH THE SIMULATIONS ARE HAVING A PROBLEM ON HOW MUCH
PRECIP IS GOING TO BE GENERATED EACH DAY. THE GFS IS PRETTY
PERSISTENT ON DEVELOPING MCS'S DURING THE EVENING HOURS MOST
EVENINGS WHILE THE NAM KEEPS THE CONVECTION MAINLY DIURNALLY
DRIVEN WITH MOST OF IT IN THE MTNS. THE EC MODEL IS SOMEWHERE IN
BETWEEN. OVERALL...IT LOOKS LIKE MONDAY WILL BE ON THE DRIER SIDE
AS T/TD SPREADS WILL BE HIGHER ON THIS DAY...AND PRECIP EFFICIENCY
WILL BE LESS. TUESDAY STARTS OUT DRY BUT A BOUNDARY IS FCST TO COME
DOWN LATE IN THE DAY AND THIS MAY ASSIST IN FORMING AN MCS ON THE
PLAINS LATE IN THE DAY/EVENING. WEDNESDAY IS A BIT TRICKY AS
COOLER AIR MOVES ONTO THE PLAINS AND THIS MAY STABILIZE THINGS
(ESPECIALLY ON THE PLAINS)...ON THE OTHER HAND WITH THE MOISTER
LLVLS IN PLACE WE COULD SEE ANOTHER ROUND OF HEAVY PRECIP OVER THE
REGION. IN ADDITION...THE SIMULATIONS SHOW A STRONGER DISTURBANCE
AT THE MID LVLS MOVING ACROSS DURING THE DAY WED. I BELIEVE WHAT
WILL HAPPEN IS THIS: CONVECTION WILL START LATER IN THE DAY WED
DUE TO THE EARLY STABILITY...BUT WILL RAMP UP LATE IN THE
AFTERNOON AND CONTINUE TO INCREASE WEDNESDAY EVENING. I SHOULD
MENTION SOME OF THE SIMULATIONS KEEP TUESDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY WED
WET ACROSS THE REGION (DUE TO THE MID LVL DISTURBANCE)...ESPECIALLY
THE EC MODEL.

FROM THURSDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND IT CONTINUES TO LOOK PROMISING FOR
MOISTURE AS MONSOON FLOW CONTINUES...AND WEAK DISTURBANCE MOVE
THROUGH THE MODEST SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT.

OVERALL...FROM A LARGE SCALE PERSPECTIVE...TUESDAY NIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY COULD BE OUR BUSIEST PERIOD OF THE WEEK DURING THIS FCST
PERIOD. BUT ANY HEAVY PRECIP EVENT WHICH FORMS OVER THE BURN SCAR(S)
COULD MAKE THINGS BUSY THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. AS LONG AS THE PLUME
IS OVER US THEN THERE WILL BE AN ENHANCED RISK OF FLASH
FLOODING...ESPECIALLY ON THE BURN SCARS.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1029 AM MDT SUN AUG 4 2013

VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH THE EARLY AFTERNOON. TSRA WILL
DEVELOP OVER THE MOUNTAINS...AND DRIFT EASTWARD POSSIBLY AFFECT TAF
SITES BETWEEN 22 AND 02Z. KCOS HAS THE HIGHEST LIKELIHOOD OF
SEEING A TSRA AFFECT THE TERMINAL SO HAVE INTRODUCED A TEMPO
GROUP. KALS AND KPUB HAVE A SLIGHTLY LOWER CHANCE BUT DID THROUGH
IN A TEMPO GROUP TO ADDRESS POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY ERRATIC OUTFLOW
WINDS WHICH WILL BE MORE LIKELY TO AFFECT TERMINALS. TSRA SHOULD
DIMINISH BY 06Z WITH CLEARING SKIES. ON MONDAY...NORTHERLY WINDS
WILL SPREAD DOWN THE PLAINS WHICH MAY CAUSE SOME ENHANCED NORTH TO
NORTHWEST WINDS AT KCOS AND KPUB IN THE MORNING.

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

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ONCE AGAIN OVER THE MOUNTAINS
AROUND NOON...SPREADING EASTWARD TO THE INTERSTATE 25 CORRIDOR AND
EASTERN PLAINS THIS AFTERNOON. THESE STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF
FREQUENT LIGHTNING IN ADDITION TO BRIEF GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY
RAINFALL. A FEW STORMS COULD BECOME STRONG EAST OF INTERSTATE
25...AND COULD ALSO PRODUCE SOME HAIL UP TO NICKLE SIZE.

FLASH FLOODING WILL REMAIN A CONCERN...PARTICULARLY OVER THE BURN
SCARS AND THOSE AREAS THAT SAW HEAVY RAINFALL ON SATURDAY.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY

THE MONSOON PLUME IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN OVER THE REGION THROUGH
THIS FORECAST PERIOD. AS A RESULT...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL LIKELY OCCUR EVERY DAY OVER THE REGION...ESPECIALLY DURING
THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. THE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE MOST
NUMEROUS OVER THE MOUNTAINS...WHILE THE ACTIVITY OVER THE PLAINS
WILL RANGE FROM ISOLATED TO SCATTERED.

LATEST COMPUTER SIMULATIONS INDICATE TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY
MAY BE MORE ACTIVE THAN THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD AS A
SURGE OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE RETURNS TO THE STATE FROM KANSAS.

THE PRIMARY THREATS FROM STORMS WILL BE CLOUD TO GROUND
LIGHTNING...WIND GUSTS TO 40 OR 50 MPH...PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN AND
POSSIBLY SMALL HAIL. ANY STORM WHICH PRODUCES HEAVY RAIN AND MOVES
OVER ANY OF THE RECENT BURN SCARS WILL HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO
PRODUCE FLASH FLOODING.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET REPORTING CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS WILL BE
POSSIBLE AFTER 1 PM TODAY FOR TELLER AND EL PASO COUNTIES...AND FOR
ALL OF THE EASTERN PLAINS EAST OF INTERSTATE 25 AFTER 300 PM MDT.
