AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREAT FALLS MT
324 AM MDT WED SEP 28 2005

.DISCUSSION...
TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE AND DRY AIR WILL
DOMINATE MOST OF THE AREA TODAY. A DISTURBANCE OVER BRITISH
COLUMBIA WILL BE MOVING THROUGH TODAY INCREASING MID AND HIGH
LEVEL CLOUDS. AS IT PASSES...THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL TURN MORE
WESTERLY WITH INCREASING WINDS THIS AFTERNOON ALONG THE ROCKY
MOUNTAIN FRONT. UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL BECOME STRONGER THURSDAY
THROUGH FRIDAY. DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH THIS STRONG FLOW WILL
CAUSE A PERIOD OF VERY STRONG WINDS AT THE SURFACE. IT LOOKS LIKE
THE WINDS WILL BE PERSISTENTLY STRONG ALONG THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN
FRONT THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...WITH STRONG WINDS SPREADING ONTO
THE PLAINS THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY. HENCE HAVE ISSUED A HIGH
WIND WATCH FOR THE NORTHERN PLAINS THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY.
TEMPERATURES WILL WARM DURING THE PERIOD WITH DRY CONDITIONS OVER
THE PLAINS. A DISTURBANCE WILL BRING PRECIP TO THE NORTHERN
ROCKIES THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...DIFFERENCES EXIST AMONGST THE
MODELS IN HOW THEY HANDLE A STRONG UPPER TROUGH THAT WILL BE
APPROACHING THE AREA NEXT WEEK. A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO THE ECMWF WAS MUCH
FASTER THAN THE GFS WITH THE UPPER TROUGH WHILE THE LATEST GFS IS NOW
MUCH FASTER THAN THE ECMWF WITH THE UPPER TROUGH. THE LATEST GFS HAS
THE  UPPER TROUGH INTO WRN MT BY 12Z TUE WHILE THE LATEST ECMWF HAS
THE TROUGH ALL THE WAY BACK NEAR THE W COAST. DUE TO DIFFERENCES IN
THE MODELS TREATMENT OF THE UPPER TROUGH CONFIDENCE IN FORECAST IS LOW
AND DID NOT MAKE MANY CHANGES TO THE FORECAST OF HIGH/LOW
TEMPERATURES AND CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION. DID ADD A SLIGHT
CHANCE/CHANCE OF SHOWERS TO THE PLAINS FOR MONDAY NIGHT TO LINE UP
WITH NEIGHBORING OFFICES AND WITH THE POSSIBLE APPROACH OF THE UPPER
TROUGH THIS IDEA OF ADDING POPS IS CERTAINLY REASONABLE.

TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...MODEL TO MODEL AND RUN TO RUN
INCONSISTENCIES DURING THIS PERIOD COMPLICATE THE FORECAST. LEANED
TOWARD GFS SOLUTION AS GFS WAS A LITTLE MORE CONSISTENT. SHORTWAVE
TROUGH MOVES THROUGH THE CWA TUESDAY...RESULTING IN SLIGHT CHANCE
TO CHANCE OF SHOWERS OVER MOST OF THE REGION. BY WEDNESDAY...A
WEAK RIDGE DRIES MOST OF CWA WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS ONLY
ALONG THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE WITH A FEW OVER THE CENTRAL
MOUNTAINS. TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR SEASONAL AVERAGES. EK

.AVIATION...
UPDATED 0555Z
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER CENTRAL MONTANA CONTINUES TO SLIDE
SOUTHEAST. ASSOCIATED LOW CLOUDS WITH MVFR AND LOCAL IFR CONDITIONS
ARE RAPIDLY CLEARING OUT. EXPECT MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND WIDESPREAD
VFR CONDITION ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA BY 10Z WITH LOCAL IFR
CONDITIONS DUE TO LINGERING FOG MAINLY IN CENTRAL MONTANA.
GUSTY WEST WINDS AND MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES WILL PREVAIL WEDNESDAY
THROUGH THURSDAY. MPJ
