.DISCUSSION /Through Friday/...
Issued at 229 PM MDT Fri Jul 25 2025
A broad Denver cyclone is evident based off TDEN/KFTG Z/V products
and surface observations this afternoon. There`s also a pretty
well-defined difference in surface moisture along with this
circulation, with low 30s dew points at DEN/APA while the northern
I-25 corridor (FNL/GXY) still have mid 50s Tds in the better
defined easterly upslope flow. Meanwhile, convection has been much
slower to develop this afternoon compared to the past couple of
days, which isn`t too much of a surprise given the decreasing
moisture across the region. There`s been a little more robust
development across the southern Foothills and in Larimer county,
but there`s still some modest MLCIN across most of the lower
elevations. All that said, we still expect isolated to widely
scattered showers and thunderstorms to spread into the lower
elevations through this evening. Can`t rule out a marginally
severe storm or two but the lack of deep layer shear will likely
keep most of our convection disorganized.
Ridging will begin to expand across the southern/southeastern
CONUS this weekend, with a much drier airmass working back into
the region. There may be enough mid-level moisture left for a few
gusty/high-based showers across the region on Saturday, with even
drier conditions likely by Sunday. Low to mid 90s are forecast
Saturday with mid to upper 90s likely Sunday and Monday.
Ridging will break down by early to mid week next week, with a
better push of moisture returning back to our area by Tuesday or
Wednesday. There`s fairly good agreement for wetting rainfall
across the region by Wednesday or Thursday of next week, with ECME
probQPF > 0.10" near 40-70% across the CWA. We`ll see how guidance
trends over the next few days, but it does look like a legitimate
chance of seeing some good rainfall along and east of the Front
Range.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS through 18Z Sunday/...
Issued at 1142 AM MDT Sat Jul 26 2025
VFR through the TAF period. Main concern is still potential for
gusty high-based showers developing over the next few hours. With
ample DCAPE at least a few gusts to 35kt are possible through the
early evening hours. As mentioned in the previous AFD, better
potential for outflow at the terminals than there is for any
precipitation.
Wind direction will be a bit of a challenge this afternoon as
well, with guidance offering few clear signals. Speeds should
generally be light, and direction may be dependent on whatever
outflow boundaries become more dominant later today. Drainage
winds are expected overnight, with light and variable winds
eventually turning to the east tomorrow.
