.KEY MESSAGES...
- A few weak showers/thunderstorms possible this afternoon for the
mountains and urban corridor; slightly stronger with greater
coverage over the plains into this evening.
- Hotter and drier this weekend and into early next week, with
locally elevated to near-critical fire weather conditions for
portions of the high country.

.DISCUSSION /Through Thursday/...
Issued at 235 PM MDT Thu Jul 24 2025
Water vapor imagery shows mid level moisture in place across the
forecast area this morning, with a plume of lower level moisture on
track to spread northward from NM through the day. Expecting similar
conditions to yesterday for this afternoon and evening`s shower and
storm potential, with storms capable of producing some localized
heavy rainfall once again. While winds aloft increase slightly
today under a modest southwest to northeast facing jet, winds in
the cloud layer will remain fairly light (5-25 kts). With the
increasing winds aloft (mainly for the northern tier of the
forecast area), there will be slightly more favorable shear
values to see a few stronger storms develop compared to yesterday,
with a few capable of producing strong to severe gusts and hail.
Guidance generally keeps the greater, yet still modest, 0-6 km
shear values towards the northern portion of the urban corridor
and adjacent plains, so leaning towards these areas having the
greatest potential for slightly more organization to occur.
Temperatures aloft are slightly cooler than yesterday as well, so
expect slightly larger hail growth potential, with hail up to 1"
in diameter possible in the stronger storms. The latest HREF has
decreased accumulations slightly since this morning, showing
potential for rainfall accumulations of 1-2" across the forecast
area, with a few bullseyes of slightly higher (~2.5"). After
yesterday`s efficient rain makers helping to saturate soils in
areas along the Palmer Divide, this remains the area of main
concern (outside of our burn scars and typical flood-prone areas)
for flooding potential today.
Things begin to dry out Friday, as a broad upper level ridge over
the southeastern CONUS and an upper level low over the west puts
Colorado under broad southwesterly flow aloft. There will still
be enough moisture in place for afternoon showers and storms for
the mountains, with some high-based showers and storms for the
plains. Forecast soundings support the potential for gusty
outflows with DCAPE values surpassing 1000 J/kg across the plains.
By Saturday, hot and dry conditions will be in place as 700 mb
temperatures warm to 20C under the persistent ridge and PWAT
values drop to near 65-75% of normal across the forecast area. Any
showers or storms that develop will remain anchored to the
mountains, and afternoon high temperatures are forecast to climb
into the mid to upper 90s for the majority of the plains. The hot
and dry conditions are expected to persist through the beginning
of next week, making for another hot weekend. Sunday looks to be
the driest day of the week as ensembles show PWAT values dropping
to 40 to 50% before they start to increase slowly again Monday. By
the middle of the week there looks to be enough moisture to see
scattered showers and storms return for the higher elevations.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday/...
Issued at 1136 AM MDT Fri Jul 25 2025
VFR conditions through the TAF period. Main concern is impacts
from afternoon convection, with gusty outflow winds and perhaps a
brief period of -TSRA later today. Convection should be more
widely scattered compared to the last couple days, but a PROB30
still seems reasonable at this point. There also could be some
occasional impacts from smoke aloft... with brief reductions in
slant range visibility possible through this evening.
Winds should generally turn to the east this afternoon, before
drainage winds establish this evening into tomorrow morning. A
similar wind pattern is expected again during the day tomorrow.
