The episode as NWS PUB wrote it up.
A strong weather disturbance caused heavy snow accumulations across the Continental Divide, and a high wind episode across the eastern mountains and I-25 corridor. Snow amounts were above 8 inches across the higher terrain, with both Monarch and Wolf Creek ski areas receiving nearly 1 1/2 feet of snow. In addition, winds gusted up to 75 mph at times.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PUEBLO CO 1055 AM MST FRI NOV 15 2013 .SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT) ISSUED AT 411 AM MST FRI NOV 15 2013 ...SNOW FOR THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS AND CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS... UPPER TROF IS CURRENTLY DROPPING TO THE SOUTHEAST INTO THE NORTHERN GREAT BASIN. MODELS MOVE THIS TROF ACROSS THE FORECAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT...SPREADING SNOW HEAVY AT TIMES ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN AREAS BEGINNING LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND CONTINUING THROUGH TONIGHT. NAM IS STILL HEAVIER WITH WITH SNOWFALL AMOUNTS WITH 6 TO 12 INCHES ACROSS THE EASTERN SAN JUANS AND THE MOSQUITO RANGES COMPARED TO THE GFS WHICH HAS 3-6 INCHES. THERE WILL BE A PERIOD OF STRONG SOUTHWEST FLOW PROVIDING FAVORABLE OROGRAPHICS FOR THE EASTERN SAN JUAN MOUNTAINS...AND WILL BE JUST WAITING ON THE MOISTURE TO ARRIVE. SATELLITE IMAGERY SUGGESTS THAT MOISTURE IS NOT TOO FAR AWAY ACROSS AZ...HOWEVER THINK THAT MAY MOSTLY BE MID/HIGH LEVEL MOISTURE AND WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE 12Z RAOBS TO TELL FOR SURE. AREA RADARS ARE NOT SHOWING MUCH GOING ON ACROSS AZ. ANYWAY...THIS SEEMS TO POINT TO A LATE AFTERNOON START TIME TO THE HEAVIER SNOWFALL ALONG THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE...AND CURRENT 21Z TIMING OF HIGHLIGHTS OUT WEST STILL LOOKS GOOD. THERE WILL BE A PERIOD OF INSTABILITY TOO IN THE AFTERNOON WHICH IS PARTIALLY THE CAUSE FOR THE NAM12 HEAVIER QPF AMOUNTS. HAVE SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE MODELS AND GONE WITH 4-8 INCHES AMOUNTS FOR THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE. WHILE THIS IS WELL WITHIN ADVISORY RANGE...THE SEEMINGLY LONG DURATION TO THE SNOWFALL BETWEEN THIS SYSTEM...THEN NEXT ONE QUICK ON ITS HEALS FOR SATURDAY HAS LEANED US TOWARDS UPGRADING THE EASTERN SAN JUANS AND THE SAWATCH RANGE ABOVE 10-11KFT TO A WINTER STORM WARNING. THERE WILL BE STRONG MTN TOP WINDS OVER THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING AS THE UPPER JET PASSES OVERHEAD...SO EXTENSIVE BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH IMPACTS MORE IN THE REALM OF WARNING CRITERIA RATHER THAN ADVISORY. HOWEVER...THE HEAVIER SNOW WILL LIKELY COME WITH STORM NUMBER TWO LATER SATURDAY (SEE BELOW FOR DETAILS). SNOW WILL ALSO SPREAD EASTWARD INTO THE SOUTHEAST MOUNTAINS THIS EVENING...HOWEVER MOST OF THE MOISTURE WILL BE INTERCEPTED BY THE WESTERN MTS...SO SOME LIGHTER ACCUMULATIONS OF 1-3 INCHES WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE CREST OF THE SANGRES THROUGH TONIGHT. OF GREATER CONCERN WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR A MOUNTAIN WAVE SET UP TO OCCUR TOWARDS 12Z SATURDAY. FIRST UPPER JET PULLS AWAY...AND THE NEXT IS POISED TO MOVE IN SATURDAY AFTERNOON. THIS LEADS TO A PERIOD OF REVERSE SHEAR...WITH A MTN TOP INVERSION DEVELOPING WITHIN THE SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE FIRST WAVE TOWARDS 12Z ACROSS THE SE MTS. THIS COULD LEAD TOWARDS A WINDOW FOR MTN WAVE INDUCED HIGH WINDS FOR THE LOWER ELEVATIONS OF THE SANGRE DE CRISTO MOUNTAINS...WET MOUNTAINS AND PIKES PEAK TOWARDS SUNRISE SATURDAY MORNING. MODEL CROSS-SECTIONS ON THE LOCAL 4KM WRF HAVE BEST POTENTIAL ACROSS THE SOUTHERN SANGRE DE CRISTO MOUNTAINS/ADJACENT SRN I-25 CORRIDOR TOWARDS 12Z. A HIGH WIND WATCH MAY BECOME NECESSARY IF FUTURE MODEL RUNS CONTINUE THIS TREND...BUT FOR NOW WILL TAKE A WAIT AND SEE APPROACH AS THIS EVENT IS STILL WELL OFF INTO THE LATE 2ND AND MOSTLY 3RD PERIOD. FINALLY...OTHER CONCERN TODAY WILL BE FOR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS. VARIOUS SHORT RANGE MODELS SPREAD WESTERLY WINDS OFF THE SE MTS INTO THE ADJACENT PLAINS DURING THE AFTERNOON. MAIN CHALLENGE WILL BE HOW FAR EAST THESE WINDS SPREAD AND FOR HOW LONG THEY WILL REMAIN GUSTY. THE USUAL WINDY SPOTS...ACROSS SOUTHERN EL PASO COUNTY OVER FT CARSON AND ACROSS NRN EL PASO COUNTY...AS WELL AS THE SOUTHERN I-25 CORRIDOR FROM JUST SOUTH OF PUEBLO TO TRINIDAD SHOULD SEE THE GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS SPREAD IN SOONEST. IT MAY TAKE A LITTLE LONGER FOR THE GUSTY WINDS TO SPREAD EASTWARD INTO KCOS (WHICH IS IN A WIND LULL IN THE WAKE OF PIKES PEAK INITIALLY) AND INTO KPUB (IN THE WAKE OF THE WET MTS). HOWEVER...WINDS SHOULD MIX EASTWARD INTO MOST OF THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS BY THIS AFTERNOON. AS USUAL...MODEL DEW POINTS LOOK TOO HIGH...THOUGH SUSPECT THAT THEY WILL INCREASE SOME NEAR THE MOUNTAINS DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AS MOISTURE STARTS TO ADVECT IN FROM THE WEST. ALL IN ALL...LOOKS LIKE CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS SHOULD MATERIALIZE FOR MOST OF THE SOUTHEAST PLAINS FOR A 3 HOUR DURATION...WITH CONDITIONS LOOKING A LITTLE MORE MARGINAL THE FARTHER NORTHEAST ONE GOES. HAVE UPGRADED THE WATCH TO A RED FLAG WARNING...AND HAVE SPREAD IT EASTWARD SOME. THIS JIVES PRETTY WELL WITH SPC DAY 1 FIRE WX OUTLOOK. -KT .LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 411 AM MST FRI NOV 15 2013 ...HEAVY SNOW FOR THE DIVIDE SATURDAY... MAIN FOCUS IN THE EXTENDED WILL BE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY MORNING ACROSS THE CONTDVD. A SHORT WAVE WILL BE MOVING THROUGH WY AND ON TO THE DAKOTAS AND NE DURING THIS PERIOD. BUT THE MAIN DRIVER WILL BE THE UPPER JET...A 130 KT JET STREAK DIRECTED STRAIGHT AT THE DVD LATE SATURDAY. COUPLED WITH FAIRLY STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES...EXPECT SNOW TO INTENSIFY OVER THE DVD DURING THE MORNING HOURS AND BECOME QUITE INTENSE SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SAT EVENING. THE ERN SAN JUANS SHOULD PICK UP AN ADDITIONAL 5 TO 9 INCHES OF SNOW DURING THIS TIME. THE MAIN FOCUS FOR HEAVY ACCUMS WILL BE NORTH OF KMYP...WHERE LAPSE RATES AND WINDS WILL BE STRONGEST. WILL LIKELY SEE BLIZZARD CONDITIONS MET FOR THE HIGHEST ELEVATIONS OF THE SAWATCH RANGE...BUT SINCE IMPACT WILL BE LOWER DUE TO THE RELATIVELY BRIEF DURATION AND THE REMOTE LOCATION...WILL KEEP THINGS COVERED WITH THE WINTER STORM WARNING. WILL EMPHASIZE THAT CONDITIONS WILL BE EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS ABOVE TREELINE SAT AFTERNOON AND EVENING...WITH HURRICANE FORCE GUSTS RESULTING IN WHITEOUT CONDITIONS. SNOW TOTALS FOR THE SAWATCH WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL LIKELY RANGE FROM 6 TO 12 INCHES WITH SOME LOCALLY HIGHER TOTALS...BUT WITH THE STRONG WINDS SIGNIFICANT DRIFTING WILL OCCUR. OTHER WX THREAT THIS WEEKEND WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR HIGH WINDS BOTH SAT AND SUN ACROSS THE LEE SLOPES OF THE ERN MTS. AS MENTIONED IN THE SHORT TERM DISCUSSION...FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE REVERSE SHEAR SETS UP OVER THE SRN SANGRES EARLY SAT MORNING...WITH RIDGE TOP WINDS AROUND 75 KTS OVER THE SPANISH PEAKS. HIGH RES MODELS NOT SHOWING MUCH PROPAGATION OF MT WAVES HOWEVER. WILL HAVE TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THIS POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT 12-24 HOURS. STRONG CROSS BARRIER FLOW SHIFTS TO THE PIKES PEAK REGION EARLY SUN MORNING...ESPECIALLY IN THE 10-15Z TIME FRAME ON SUN. H6 WINDS ARE 90 KTS PLUS DURING THIS TIME. NOT SEEING MUCH MT WAVE POTENTIAL AS THE JET REMAINS ELEVATED...BUT BRUTE FORCE WINDS WILL LIKELY RESULT IN VERY STRONG WINDS FOR THE PIKES PEAK SUMMIT EARLY SUN. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE A 100 KT SUMMIT GUST DURING THIS TIME. FOR THE PLAINS...JUST MORE WIND...AND LIKELY PRETTY GUSTY IN THE AFTERNOON WITH THE STRONGER WESTERLIES MIXING DOWN TO THE SURFACE. COULD SEE TEMPS APPROACH 70 DEGREES FOR THE FAR SERN PLAINS. HAVE GONE WITH DEWPOINTS SEVERAL DEGREES LOWER THAN THE LOWEST MODEL GUIDANCE...BUT RH VALUES STILL LOOK TO BE HIGH ENOUGH TO PRECLUDE FIRE WEATHER HIGHLIGHTS SAT AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...FIRE DANGER WILL STILL BE QUITE HIGH DUE TO THE GUSTY CONDITIONS. SUNDAY INTO MONDAY...EXPECT THINGS TO CLEAR NICELY BEHIND THE DEPARTING TROUGH. TEMPS WILL BE NR OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE AVERAGE SUNDAY...THEN SLOWLY REBOUND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS ZONAL FLOW ALOFT BECOMES ESTABLISHED. THE DRY AND WARMER TREND WILL CONTINUE INTO MID WEEK...BEFORE THE NEXT SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE ROCKIES LATE WED INTO THURSDAY. THIS SYSTEM DOES NOT LOOK TERRIBLY IMPRESSIVE...BUT WILL AT LEAST BRING A BETTER CHANCE OF PRECIP TO THE PLAINS DUE TO THE MORE WRLY TRAJECTORY AND BETTER PACIFIC MOISTURE. ROSE && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY AFTERNOON) ISSUED AT 1040 AM MST FRI NOV 15 2013 GUSTY WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN CONCERN FOR THE TAF SITES TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY AS A SERIES OF WEATHER SYSTEMS MOVES THROUGH THE REGION. INVERSION HAS JUST BROKEN AT KALS AS OF 1730Z...AND EXPECT GUSTY SW WINDS BY 19Z...CONTINUING UNTIL AT LEAST 01Z THEN GRADUALLY DIMINISHING OVERNIGHT. AT KCOS...MODERATE ROTOR EVIDENT AS OF 17Z WITH KAFF WEST G40 AND KCOS LIGHT EASTERLY. EXPECT ROTOR TO BREAK DOWN AND W-SW WINDS TO DEVELOP AT THE TERMINAL BY 19Z- 20Z...WITH GUSTS TO AT LEAST 25 KTS INTO THE EVENING BEFORE GRADUALLY DIMINISHING TOWARD 06Z. AT KPUB...MAY TAKE UNTIL 20-21Z BEFORE STRONGER W-SW WINDS FINALLY SURFACE. CIGS SHOULD STAY IN THE VFR CATEGORY AT TAF SITES TONIGHT AND SATURDAY...THOUGH KALS COULD SEE VCSH STARTING AROUND 00Z. WILL ALSO HAVE TO WATCH KCOS CLOSELY FOR POTENTIAL WIND SHEAR AFTER 06Z TONIGHT. MEANWHILE...EXPECT WIDESPREAD MTN OBSCURATIONS WITH LIFR CONDITIONS DUE TO SN BLSN ALONG THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE BEGINNING THIS AFTERNOON AND CONTINUING TONIGHT AND SATURDAY. && .PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

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
