725 FXUS65 KBOU 282058 AFDBOU Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Denver/Boulder CO 158 PM MST Sun Nov 28 2021 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday) Issued at 200 PM MST Sun Nov 28 2021 Plenty of upper level cloudiness is flowing south-southeastward across the CWA at this time. Models have high pressure aloft over all the southwestern United States, with weak northwesterly flow aloft for the CWA tonight and Monday. The synoptic scale energy is neutral for the CWA. The airmass looks to stay dry in the lower levels these first two periods. The models aren't doing a good job with the upper level moisture that looks to continue to move across the CWA tonight into Monday. That cloudiness could have some effect on temperatures. No pops. Winds should be fairly weak with normal diurnal trends. For temperatures, Monday's highs should be 1-2 C warmer than this afternoon's. Could see a high around 70 F at DIA on Monday. The record high for November 29th in Denver is 74 F. That should not be in jeopardy. .LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday) Issued at 136 PM MST Sun Nov 28 2021 A weak upper level trough and associated cool front will affect the area on Tue. Cross-sections show limited moisture with the trough so don't expect any precip from it. Temperatures will be cooler behind the front, however, readings will still be 8 to 12 degrees above normal. For Wed and Thu, WNW flow aloft will be over the area. There will likely be some higher level moisture embedded in the flow, however, oustide of some cloudiness at times, no precip is expected. Temperatures Wed and Thu could get close to record highs for early December across portions of nern CO. On Fri, dry WNW flow aloft will remain over the area. The ECMWF has a cool front backdooring into nern CO while the GFS keeps this front further to the northeast. Thus, depending on whether this front affects the plains, highs on Friday could be 10 to 15 degrees cooler across the plains or near record highs again. Fow now have gone with a blended solution. By next Sat, the flow aloft will continue WNW, with little moisture shown in the cross-sections. Thus expect another dry day with above normal temperatures. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon) Issued at 200 PM MST Sun Nov 28 2021 Very weak winds are in place at DIA currently. Models keep the winds pretty weak all night with normal drainage patterns expected. No ceiling issues. && .BOU WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
