.UPDATE...
Issued at 955 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
Spotty high based mainly virga showers are now popping up over
the far northwest corner of the CWA (extreme Jackson County around
the Ryan Wildfire). Radar returns are weak at most. Main concern
with this leading batch of showers will be gusty winds which the
Ryan Fire IMET has been made aware of. Farther west over northwest
Colorado, showers are a bit more numerous and cloud bases are a
bit lower with smaller temp/dewpoint spreads. But, the underlying
cloud layer with these showers would support more wind than
wetting rainfall. Expect this shower activity to reach western
portions of the CWA between 12-3 AM tonight. However, the main
batch of showers associated with the mid-level trough and jet are
still back over northeast Utah at this hour. They don`t look all
that impressive on radar. At their present rate of forward motion,
should see main batch of showers passing over the northern mtns
between 1-5 AM and over the n-central mtns around Summit County
area and the northern Front Range foothills between 3-7 AM MDT.
Furthermore, the sfc cold front now moving ewrd thru south-
central Wyoming is still timed to jump the Continental Divide and
then slide south and east acrs nern Colorado during the pre-dawn
hours. A shift to gust northerly winds and a modest jump in
dewpoint will mark it passage thru the Denver metro area around 5
AM. Really do not see much of a chance for precip east of the mtns
as temp/dewpt spreads should remain relatively large. What may
be more noticeable will be the wildfire smoke that will spread
down from Wyoming behind the front. Do not expect to see
visibilities in the smoke much below 5-6 miles, although can`t
rule out pockets of heavier smoke and VSBYs down to 2-3 miles
early to mid morning.
Have made adjustment to the forecast grids to account for this
time line.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday)
Issued at 322 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
Lots of shallow convection upstream over western Colorado and
Utah, but it`s still dry enough to limit CAPE and there is still
very dry air above this convective layer. As a result these clouds
shouldn`t produce any precipitation. Deeper bands further north
will shift eastward, clipping northern Colorado later tonight into
Monday morning as the associated trough moves past. The
environment is still pretty dry overnight. Around sunrise the cold
front will drop across the plains, bringing a bit more moisture
but still nowhere near saturation. This moisture and convergence
will help keep cloud cover through the day, but it will still
probably not produce much shower activity. Current forecast has
chance PoPs over the northern mountains and isolated
showers/storms mainly near the northern border on Monday. This
still looks good. It should be cold enough for the precip that
does fall to be snow in some areas above timberline, but not
expecting it to go any lower. Forecast temperatures look good. We
did increase winds a little and lower humidities a little in the
mountains again--more in the fire weather section below.
Also of note is that the cold front will likely bring in smoke at
low level that the Ryan wildfire produces overnight. The HRRR
smoke model shows this pattern well, but is likely overdoing the
smoke production, especially the plume from the more southern
Silver Creek fire. Even given this, the pattern of low level smoke
being advected from the Laramie/Cheyenne area southward behind the
front seems likely. Laramie has still had visibilities of 5-10
miles and we`re further away, so probably not that low here, but
it may well be the smokiest we`ve been this summer in Denver. The
smoke should gradually mix out and be blown away as winds turn
more toward the east and southeast in the afternoon, but this
could be a slow process. For now, we`ll add the mention of smoke
in the morning for Denver northward across Weld county.
.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 322 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
Monday night into Tuesday, a moderate to strong west/northwesterly
flow aloft will be over the area. The first short wave trough will
pass to the north and east of CO by 00z Tuesday. The best chance
of showers at that time will be over the far northeast plains. Mid
level cold air advection will drop the 700 mb temperatures from
10C Monday afternoon to 4C Tuesday aftn. Although it will be
cooler it will remain dry in the mountains west of the Continental
Divide. A cold front post-frontal upslope along the Front
Range/Palmer Divide may allow for some light showers in and near
the foothills southwest of Denver by late Tuesday. It will remain
cool on Wednesday over the northeast plains, with only a slight
chance of showers over the Palmer Divide early. Dry elsewhere
across the cwa. Weak to moderate mid level qg descent sweeping
across the state Wednesday afternoon and evening. Mid level
warming will start to develop late Wednesday and continue with a
gradual warming trend the rest of the week. A dry northwesterly
flow aloft with a ridge to the west through Friday then more of a
zonal flow aloft over the weekend.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Monday night)
Issued at 955 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
Light and variable winds in the denver metro area as of 2145z
should transition to a more typical south-southwest drainage wind
pattern in the next couple of hours with pressure falls across
southern Wyoming ahead of a cold front. This cold front is
expected to slip across southeast Wyoming after midnight, then
drop south across northeast Colorado late tonight. Latest model
guidance points to a 11Z arrival time in the Denver metro area.
The air near the ground behind this front appears quite dry. So,
the chance for precipitation in the Denver area with frontal
passage appears quite low at this time. What most likely will
accompany the front will be northerly winds bringing smoke down
from wildfires upstream from here, such as the Ryan Wildfire. It
is possible that VSBYS in the Denver area could fall to the 4-6
mile range due to the smoke during the early to mid-morning hours.
By late morning, a shift to southeast wind should dispatch most
of this smoke before noon.

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 955 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
The Red Flag Warning for FW zones 211..213 and 217 in Jackson,
Grand and Summit Counties expired at 8 PM MDT this evening. Its
possible this warning could be reissued for this same area
tomorrow afternoon should the latest model data support this
action. Otherwise, high based mostly dry showers passing over the
Ryan and Silver Creek Wildfires overnight may produce gusty and
erratic wind gusts to 30 mph. Fortunately, rising RH values
overnight in advance of the weather system presently passing over
Utah should reduce the risk of large fire growth.

905 PM EDT Sun Sep 23 2018
.SYNOPSIS...
Surface and upper ridge offshore will continue to extend into
the region through Tuesday as a frontal bounday dissipates over
the northern Midlands. Another front will move into the region
mid to late week. These factors will lead to increasing
precipitation chances by mid week but temperatures remain above
normal until next weekend.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
Surface and upper ridge off the coast will continue to ridge
into the area through tonight. A backdoor cold front appears to
move into the northern Midlands tonight and possibly wash out
in the Piedmont. There could still be isolated showers across
the northern Midlands near the front. Continued onshore flow
could also bring a few showers to the CSRA tonight. Expect more
clouds overnight as PWAT increases 1.5 to 2.0 inches. Kept
overnight low in line with guidance consensus...in the upper 60s
and lower 70s.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
Upper ridging over the western Atlantic will promote southwesterly
upper flow over the region Monday and Tuesday. A slow moving back
door front will be in the area on Monday with wedge conditions
possible in its wake. Moisture will increase with precipitable
water values around peaking at 1.8 to 2.0 inches on Monday.
Have continued with chance pops given the deeper moisture and
frontal boundary in the area, although QPF should be light. The
front will be south of the area on Tuesday with drier air in
place so slight chance pops appeared adequate. High
temperatures on Monday are forecast closer to seasonal norms
than in recent days, in the lower 80s north and middle to upper
80s south. On Tuesday, highs will be a little warmer with less
showers around, in the middle 80s to around 90.
&&
.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Upper ridging off the East Coast will weaken Wednesday and
Thursday with southwesterly flow aloft becoming more zonal by
Friday and into the weekend as an upper trough moves into the
Upper Midwest and then Great Lakes regions. A cold front will
approach the forecast area on Friday and may stall through
Saturday. Moisture will deepen across the area ahead of the
front. Have continued to indicate mainly chance pops. High
pressure expected to return by Sunday with lower pops. Expect to
see a gradual cooling trend through the long term with highs
around 90 on Wednesday and in the low to mid 80s by Sunday.
&&
.AVIATION /01Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
High confidence for VFR conditions through this evening.
Winds will become light and variable through the night.
A frontal boundary will be slowly pushing southward out of North
Carolina overnight, with is expected to remain north of all taf
sites until late Monday morning. South of front, models still
hinting at the potential for fog and stratus development. Latest
hrrr models is showing an increasing chance for ceiling
restrictions now across portions of the Midlands ahead of the
southward moving front, with some possibility also across the
CSRA. Have indicated restrictions at AGS/DNL after 06Z, and at
CAE/CUB towards morning. Should see VFR return to all sites by
midday Monday as boundary layer mixing increases. Scattered
showers will be possible Monday, but confidence in timing and
coverage remain too low to include in TAFs.
EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...Restrictions possible each day in
late night/early morning fog/stratus and mainly afternoon and
evening showers and thunderstorms as a frontal boundary will
stall across the area this week.

.UPDATE...
Issued at 848 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
8 pm Update. Made some adjustments to POPs using latest hi-res
model guidance. HRRR and NAM Nest show showers developing between
06-08z moving over southeastern Wyoming. Most areas could see a
sprinkle or two overnight but wetting rain does not look highly
favorable. The best shot looks to be the mountain peaks in far
southern Wyoming near the Colorado border.
Other updates include the addition of smoke and haze as the Ryan
Fire continues to burn. Should see the rain reduce that some
through the day tomorrow. Along the same lines, winds were
increased slightly with the latest guidance. This pushed some area
toward more critical Fire Weather COnditions and the Red Flag
Warning was expanded as a buffer.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This evening through tuesday night)
Issued at 200 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
Fire weather will continue to be the main concern Monday, then
a break expected Tuesday. Currently pretty quiet across the CWA
weatherwise with some cumulus spreading across the area in
southwesterly upper flow. A upper shortwave will move across the
area overnight into early Monday setting off widely scattered
showers and maybe a few tstms. It will also push a cool front
across the CWA later tonight and bring about 10-15 degrees of
cooling Monday, especially east of the mtns. Still breezy out west
Monday afternoon. A better coverage of showers/tstms expected
Monday afternoon and evening over the plains as another shortwave
nears the area. A second push of colder air moves into the area in
the wake of the second shortwave Monday night with dry and mild
conditions Tuesday along with light winds. Chilly night Tuesday
night under mainly clear skies and light winds as a surface high
settles down the northern and central Plains with many areas
falling into the 30s.
.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Sunday)
Issued at 200 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
The latest medium range models are in good agreement depicting a
northwest flow aloft Wednesday and Thursday, transitioning to west
to southwest next weekend. Little to speak of in terms of sensible
weather, aside from a cold frontal passage Wednesday night. Cooler
than normal temperatures Wednesday and Thursday will moderate to
above normal Friday through Sunday. Breezy conditions will occur
each afternoon west of the Laramie Range, which will maintain the
elevated fire danger.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday evening)
Issued at 531 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
Forecast for today and tonight VFR to MVFR at times with some rain
showers and smoke/haze from ongoing wildfires. Gusty southwest
winds will continue though the early evening as an area of low
pressure strengthens over southeastern Wyoming. Ceilings will
begin to drop as a stalled coldfront slowly moves its way south.
Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms will develop
overnight and early tomorrow. VCSH was introduced to many TAF
sites, but lack of agreement on short term guidance precludes the
inclusion of thunder at this time. Northwest to northeasterly
winds behind the front will change early tomorrow morning and
continue through the day.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 848 PM MDT Sun Sep 23 2018
Yet another day with critical fire weather conditions expected
Monday but mainly over Albany and Carbon counties. A cold front
will pass across the area overnight with widely scattered showers
and a few evening storms possible across the area. A second surge
of cooler air will arrive Monday night and should bring a respite
to the critical fire conditions for Tuesday. Elevated concerns
then look to return over western districts beginning on Wednesday.
Added Zones 302 and 309 to the Red Flag Warning replacing the
previous Fire Weather Watch. While condiitons are Marginal, strong
winds and marginal humidity may allow extreme Fire Behavior.

Updated aviation portion for 00Z TAF issuance
.SHORT TERM...Tonight and Monday
Issued at 249 PM CDT Sun Sep 23 2018
The latest RAP analysis and satellite/radar imagery show a cold
front stalling out over far northern WI and the Upper Peninsula
early this afternoon. This front has brought in some low stratus
over Vilas county, and scattered to broken cumulus over northern
WI. Meanwhile, clear skies are prevailing across east-central WI
all the way to a low pressure system over eastern South Dakota. As
the front over the U.P. border returns northwards, forecast
concerns mainly revolve around clouds and temps in the short term.
Tonight...As an elongated low pressure system moves from eastern
SD to northern MN, the stalled cold front will return north across
the U.P. and Lake Superior. Some clouds above 15 kft will likely
push into northern WI ahead of the low, but most areas will
continue to see mostly clear conditions persist. The pressure
gradient will tighten across the region, and the resultant
increase of boundary layer winds should limit fog potential. Did
lower temps a tad in the cold spots. But otherwise, lows should
fall into the middle 40s to lower 50s.
Monday...The low pressure system will continue to move north into
Ontario while pushing a cold front across Minnesota.
South/southeast winds will increase ahead of the front, and
should push highs into the upper 60s to middle 70s. However, the
south winds will also start to draw in increasing amounts of Gulf
moisture. This should result in more cloud cover and humid
conditions arriving for the afternoon. But precip chances should
remain south and also west of the region through early evening.
.LONG TERM...Monday Night Through Sunday
Issued at 249 PM CDT Sun Sep 23 2018
A cold front will move through the area Late Monday night into
Tuesday, bringing showers and a chance of thunderstorms. On
Monday night, pops will be highest in the northwest, near
the cold front. Models have trended east with a surge of tropical
moisture during the evening, so most of that rain should miss us.
On Tuesday, the main focus should be over the southeast half of
the forecast area, where the slow frontal passage will still be
occurring. Instability is progged to be fairly weak during most of
the event, except Tuesday afternoon in the Fox Valley/Lakeshore
region, when CAPE may reach 500-1000 j/kg. With deep layer shear
of 45-55 knots and upper divergence with the RRQ of a 120 knot jet
streak coincident with the instability axis, a few strong storms
cannot be ruled out.
The cold front should be east of the region by Tuesday night,
but the RRQ will linger over eastern WI during the evening and
a strong upper level trough is forecast to move through the
region late Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. Will need to
keep some small pops in eastern WI Tuesday evening, and across
far northern WI into Wednesday.
Another cold front is forecast to arrive late Wednesday night
into Thursday, along with the next chance of showers. Other than
mid-level lapse rates of 6.5 to 7 C/KM over northern WI Thursday
afternoon, models show little instability to work with. Will
only mention a slight chance of storms over north central and far
northeast WI Thursday afternoon, aided by the passage of a short-
wave trough.
High pressure may bring a brief dry period for the end of the
work week, but models strongly disagree on the arrival time of
precipitation for the weekend. The ECMWF model keeps dry weather
in place through Friday night, while the GFS has a much wetter
look through the entire weekend.
Temperatures will be above normal Monday night into Tuesday,
then below normal for the rest of the extended period.

.AVIATION...for 00Z TAF Issuance
Issued at 647 PM CDT Sun Sep 23 2018
Generally good flying weather across central and
northern WI through this TAF period. Mid and high clouds are
expected to increase tonight as the surface pressure gradient
tightens. This will help to keep wind speeds from becoming calm
and variable and also limit the overall temperature decrease
tonight, allowing for a reduced fog potential. Late in the TAF
period, Monday afternoon, there may be some afternoon CU that
develops, possibly giving a broken MVFR ceiling at times.
Additionally, low level wind shear may increase late tonight over
north-central WI, but it doesn`t appear significant enough to
include at any of the TAF sites with this issuance.
&&
.MARINE...Increasing southeast winds and favorable fetches will
lead to building waves on Lake Michigan late tonight into Monday
morning. Waves are expected to peak along the Lake Michigan
shoreline in the 09-13z time period at 4 to 4.5 ft. A small craft
advisory has already been issued, and will issue a beach hazard
statement for the morning hours north of Manitowoc.
Gusty southwest winds could also generate conditions that are
hazardous to small craft on Thursday and Thursday night.

Wx map shows very little pressure gradient over the region, with
light east to southeast winds. Aloft, a broad low at 700mb, with
a trough reflection at 500mb over E TX yielding enough lift in
this juicy tropical atmosphere (00z LCH sounding PW at 2.33") to
continue scattered showers & isolated thunderstorms this evening.
Per latest HRRR & 00z NAM12 guidance, this will likely increase
over LA after midnight, especially along and south of I-10 into
the coastal waters. Forecast update included tweaking QPF and
chances of SHRA/TSRA this evening and the overnight and early

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 653 PM CDT Sun Sep 23 2018/
AVIATION...A weak front has worked to around the Sabine River
this afternoon with a few showers noted along the boundary. With
the boundary in the region tonight, and moisture remaining high,
low ceilings are expected to develop late tonight. Ceilings will
gradually improve during Monday morning, however showers will
increase in coverage as well. Winds will light and generally vrb
tonight and become sw Monday.
PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 404 PM CDT Sun Sep 23 2018/
DISCUSSION...
Weak SFC front remains over E TX, stretching N-S very near a
Beaumont to Lufkin line and on to low pressure centered west of
Tyler. Aloft, upper trof remains over east TX.
Ongoing isolated to scattered shower activity will continue into
early evening before largely dissipating inland, and in a familiar
pattern, continue over the Gulf waters and increase in coverage
during the overnight hours across coastal LA. This activity will
subsequently expand northward through Monday into East Central LA,
with E TX seeing a reprieve thanks to some relatively drier air
pushing in from the west as the upper trof and associated SFC
features weaken and begin to lift out to the NE.
As the trof continues to pull away on TUE, MSTR will return to E
TX around a WWD expanding sub-tropical ridge over the Gulf, with
areawide scattered showers and thunderstorms expected.
Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are tap WED and
THU as global models continue to depict an upper trof digging into
the Central CONUS, sending a weak frontal boundary into the
region. Rain chances decrease a bit FRI and SAT as the front
washes out and a deep layer ridge builds over the SE CONUS, with
even lower chances SUN as this feature builds WWD.
Temperatures through the period will continue to average well
above seasonal normals.

MARINE...
High pressure extending into the northwest Gulf will maintain a
light south to southeast flow to start the coming week. A weak
front sagging into the area Wednesday will result in variable and
at times northerly winds through Thursday, with a more prevailing
east to southeast flow developing on Friday as the front
dissipates and high pressure strengthens over the Mid Atlantic.

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday)
Issued at 403 PM EDT SUN SEP 23 2018
WV imagery and RAP analysis indicated a shortwave trough moving
through the northern Rockies with nearly zonal mid/upper level flow
downstream across the rest of the northern CONUS. At the surface,
the cold front that moved through most of Upper Michigan last night
has stalled near KESC-KIMT. Abundant low clouds persisted across the
north with temps in the mid to upper 40s while sct-bkn cu prevailed
over the south allowing temps to climb into the lower to mid 60s.
Upslope easterly flow into north central Upper Michigan still
supported some patchy drizzle in the higher terain along with some
fog.
Tonight, a southerly low level jet will increase over the area
tonight in response to deepening low pressure ahead of the advancing
nrn Rockies shrtwv. Some pcpn may develop with the WAA pattern but
models 295k-305k isentropic progs suggest that mid level moistening
will remain north of Upper Michigan with mainly just low level
moisture persisting. So, no more than drizzle would be expected
where se to s flow upslopes, especially over the nrn Keweenaw
peninsula. Otherwise, temps will remain steady or slowly rise
tonight north as the winds veer.
Monday, any remaining low clouds or fog should dissipate during the
morning as low level mixing increases. Sunshine and WAA with gusty
southerly winds to around 25 mph will help push temps to around 70,
especially where downslope flow prevails near Lake Superior.
.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 339 PM EDT SUN SEP 23 2018
No significantly impactful weather expected in the long term as
fairly typical fall conditions persist.
A low will pass N of the CWA, dragging a cold front/trough across
the area Mon night into Tue morning. Best resulting rain coverage
should be over the western CWA, with more scattered coverage
elsewhere.
A couple of shortwave troughs moving through the region Tue evening
and Wed may bring some rain showers, but coverage is uncertain.
850mb temps drop down around 1-2C Tue night and Wed, so WNW winds
may lead to some isolated to scattered showers downwind of Lake
Superior.
A stronger trough will then move through the area Thu, bringing
chances for showers Thu into Thu night. Lake effect rain showers are
possible Fri as models show WNW flow with 850mb temps around or less
than 0C.
Lots of uncertainty next weekend as models differ significantly, but
could see continue off and on chances for rain.
High temps of 55-65 Tue will fall into the 50s for the most part Wed
through Sun (may not even get above 50 in spots Fri and Sat. Lows
over the interior will be in the 30s Tue night through Sat night,
with Fri and Sat night looking coldest. Frost will be possible at
times, but potential will need to be fine tuned as precip and cloud
cover can be better sorted out.
