.KEY MESSAGES...
- Warming trend back to above seasonal temperatures through the
end of the work week.
- Isolated to scattered afternoon showers/weak thunderstorms
over and near the higher terrain Wed/Thu.
- Increase in coverage/strength of storms from Friday into the
weekend.
&&
.SHORT TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Issued at 1106 AM MDT Tue Aug 12 2025
Not too much to change in the morning update. We`re starting to
see shallow cumulus build over the mountains, which will lead to
isolated to scattered shower/storm coverage for the higher
terrain this afternoon. The area with the highest probability
will remain in the southern mountains, but isolated
showers/storms also expected in the Pikes Peak region. It`s not
entirely impossible a sprinkle or shower works it`s way toward
Colorado Springs late in the day but overall any showers/storms
will dissipate as they move off the higher terrain into a
subsident and more hostile convective environment. Any
showers/storms will end by early evening with the loss of
daytime heating.
No changes made to the existing forecast highs today, with upper
70s to lower 80s for the high valleys, and 80s to around 90F
for the plains. Overnight lows are forecast to cool into the 40s
to around 50F for the high valleys, and 50s to around 60F for
the plains.
&&
.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Issued at 311 AM MDT Tue Aug 12 2025
Upper level ridge migrates through the srn Rockies Wed/Thu,
then into the central U.S. Fri-Sun. Under the ridge, air mass
looks rather dry with upward vertical motion suppressed, and
while we`ll see isolated afternoon storms over the mountains
and adjacent areas both Wed/Thu due to recycled moisture, expect
most activity to be weak/short-lived with mainly orographic
forcing. Max temps both days will climb to above seasonal
averages, with some 100 degf readings on the plains.
Mid-level moisture increases Fri as ridge slides east and flow
becomes more sly, leading to an upturn in thunderstorm activity
Fri afternoon, especially over the mountains along the
Continental Divide, where hopefully some much-needed wetting
rainfall will occur. Wetter pattern continues Sat/Sun as
moisture remains in place, with again mountains favored most
days. Max temps will drift downward a couple degf with
clouds/precip, though readings still end up a little above
average. Upper ridge begins to build back over the Rockies early
next week, though moisture and daily thunderstorm chances look
to continue.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 1106 AM MDT Tue Aug 12 2025
VFR conditions will persist across much of the forecast area
over the next 24 hrs, including the three main TAF sites of
KCOS, KPUB and KALS. Winds will generally be diurnal in
direction and under 12 kts. Isolated to scattered convection is
forecast til 01-02Z, but almost exclusively for the higher
terrain. There is just a low chance of gusty outflow
winds/sprinkle (as convection dissipates as it moves off the
higher terrain), but only about 10% at KCOS and 15-20% at KALS.
&&
.PUB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
None.
