NWS Forecaster Discussion
271 fxus65 kpub 232140 afdpub Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Pueblo Colorado 340 PM MDT Wednesday Jul 23 2008 Short term... (tonight and thursday) ..monsoon plume making eastward progress today... The monsoon plume is making slow but steady eastward progress today. The leading edge of the plume has moved over the I-25 corridor early this afternoon...and will continue slowly east into this evening. After sunset...thunderstorms will slowly diminish and end around midnight...except for a few which will persist into early morning along the western slopes of the eastern San Juan Mountains. Continued southwest flow will bring additional moisture into our area while an upper level disturbance moves across the northern rockies...and brings a weak cool front across the area Thursday. This will spread moisture and instability gradually across eastern Colorado...increasing coverage of afternoon thunderstorms. Temperatures will again be quite warm on the eastern plains near the Kansas border. Elsewhere...slightly cooler temperatures will result from the increased coverage of thunderstorms. Again...the movement of the thunderstorms will be slow...with good moisture available...which could lead to local heavy rain and flooding. -Jkh- Long term... (thursday night through wednesday) Not much change in thinking from the previous few forecast discussions with increasing precipitation potential as well as locally heavy rainfall remaining the main meteorological concerns for the longer term...especially from later Friday into the weekend. Latest longer term models indicate that centroid of upper high will attempt to temporarily reposition itself over Oklahoma by Saturday morning while remnants of Dolly moves to near El Paso Texas by Saturday morning. Models then varies on movement of remnant of Dolly with the latest European model (ecmwf) suggesting focus over southwest New Mexico into southern and central Arizona through the weekend...while GFS indicates that remnants will roam from western New Mexico into far southern Colorado through the weekend and then the nam12 keeps primary moisture from Dolly over New Mexico through the weekend. At any rate atmospheric moisture content is projected to be on the increase into the weekend with varying amounts of moisture available by next week as the upper ridge attempts to redevelop over the County warning forecast area. So for sensible weather will continue to indicate isolated to scattered probability of precipitation...some containing locally heavy rainfall...especially from Friday night into the weekend as precipitable water values exceed 1 inch at times. As ridge begins to rebuild over region...precipitable water values expected to decrease next week. Finally...temperatures should continue to run above late July climatological averages for the majority of the long term. && Aviation... Lightning...gusty winds and locally heavy rain associated with thunderstorms from the I-25 corridor...possibly reaching as far east as klhx before ending by middle evening. Local IFR ceilings and visibilities possible in thunderstorms. A few thunderstorms will continue past midnight across the eastern San Juan Mountains. Skies generally partly cloudy through middle morning Thursday before isolated thunderstorms again develop over the mountains and Palmer Divide and spread east across the plains. Local mountain obscuration vicinity of thunderstorms...with locally heavy rain...dangerous lightning... strong gusty winds and small hail reducing visibilities and causing local IFR conditions across the entire region. && Pub watches/warnings/advisories... none. && $$
