... Today in Metro Denver weather history...

became heavy and totaled 8.1 inches in downtown Denver.
North winds were sustained to 21 mph with gusts to 23 mph.

to 52 mph at Stapleton Airport where some blowing dust
was observed.

recorded with a peak gust to 71 mph measured at Wondervu
southwest of Boulder. West winds gusted to 25 mph at

NWS Forecaster Discussion
317 fxus65 kbou 071056 afdbou Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Denver Colorado 350 am MST Sat Nov 7 2009 Short term...no changes to the forecast package were needed. Dry and moderate west-southwesterly flow aloft will continue over the state through tonight. At the surface...pressure gradients will be weak...resulting in typical diurnal wind fields. Temperatures at lower and middle levels will not be as warm as the past couple days...so highs across the plains will only be in the middle and upper 60s. Still quite nice for the first weekend of November. Zero probability of precipitation across the forecast area and only occasional middle-high level cloudiness through Sunday morning. Long term...west-southwest flow aloft will be over the area on sun with some increase in middle level moisture by afternoon in the mountains which could lead to some isolated showers over the higher terrain. Over northestern Colorado a fnt will move across the area and bring a 5-6 degree c drop in 700-850 temperatures as weak upslope flow develops. Thus should see 10-12 degree drop in highs over northestern Colorado. For Sun night into Monday a weak upper level trough will move across the area with minimal qg ascent. NAM and GFS show varying amounts of moisture with this feature as the GFS is wetter and the NAM drier. For now will continue with chance probability of precipitation in the mountains with a slight chance of showers over lower elevations. 850-700 mb temperatures are forecast to drop another 2-3 degrees c on Monday with highs mainly in the 50s for the plains. By Tuesday and Wednesday southwesterly flow aloft will be over the area with dry conditions on Tuesday. On Wednesday the GFS shows some increase in middle level moisture in the mountains by afternoon so will leave in low probability of precipitation but continue dry forecast over the plains. 850-700 mb temperatures will begin to rise once again which should allow for highs both days to be above seasonal normals over northestern Colorado. For Thursday and Friday there is virtually no agreement between the European model (ecmwf) and GFS on the 00z runs. The GFS shows an upper level trough shearing apart as it moves across the area Thursday into Thursday night while at the same time the European model (ecmwf) has the main upper level trough still hanging back over Nevada and California. At this point its certainly not clear which if any solution is correct so will not alter previous forecast. && Aviation...no aviation impacts anticipated through tonight. Only intermittent middle and high level clouds are expected and the winds should remain out of the south to southeast && Bou watches/warnings/advisories...none. $$ Kdrby/rpk
