AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREAT FALLS MT
345 AM MST SAT NOV 12 2005

.DISCUSSION...
TODAY THROUGH MONDAY...AN UPPER TROUGH WILL BE MOVING THROUGH THE
FORECAST AREA THIS MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON. GFS HAS PICKED UP ON
THE SLOWER MOVEMENT OF THIS UPPER TROUGH. WILL CONTINUE WITH THE
LIKELY POPS FOR THE MOUNTAINS WITH SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE POPS FOR
THE LOWER ELEVATIONS. FOR TONIGHT NW FLOW ALOFT IS OVER THE AREA
WITH A HINT OF AN UPPER RIDGE. WILL CONTINUE WITH THE DRY FORECAST
EXCEPT FOR THE MOUNTAINS. ON SUNDAY A WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN
DEVELOPS ALONG WITH INCREASED MOISTURE. HAVE BACKED OFF ON THE
THREAT OF PRECIPITATION DURING THE MORNING FOR THE LOWER ELEVATIONS
BUT WILL CONTINUE WITH THE SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE POPS FOR THE
AFTERNOON. MAIN WEATHER PROBLEM FOR SUNDAY CONTINUES TO BE THE
THREAT FOR HIGH WINDS. THREAT OF HIGH WINDS LOOKS TO BE CONFINED
MAINLY TO THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN FRONT BUT STILL A LITTLE CONCERNED
THERE COULD BE LOCAL HIGH WINDS FOR THE PLAINS. AFTER LOOKING AT
FORECAST SOUNDINGS FEELING CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO UPGRADE THE HIGH WIND
WATCH TO A WARNING BUT WILL DELAY UNTIL SUNDAY AFTERNOON. WILL
MENTION POOR VISIBILTIES IN SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW IN THE MOUNTAINS.
SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY AN UPPER TROUGH WILL MOVE THROUGH THE
FORECAST AREA AND USHER IN A COLDER AIRMASS ALONG WITH AREAS OF
SNOW. THIS IS COVERED WELL BY INHERITED FORECAST. BLANK

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...MODELS SHOWING SOME CHANGE
FROM PREVIOUS RUNS...BUT AM RELUCTANT TO SHIFT COMPLETELY TO NEW
SOLUTION...SO WILL ONLY BE MAKING MINOR CHANGES TO FORECAST AT THIS
TIME. THE LINGERING NORTHWEST FLOW IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING
SYSTEM WILL KEEP A CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION AROUND THE TFX CWA MONDAY
NIGHT. TEMPERATURES WILL FALL BELOW NORMAL AS COOL CANADIAN HIGH
PRESSURE MOVES INTO THE AREA. UPPER LEVEL RIDGING WILL THEN MOVE
INTO MONTANA FROM THE WEST TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY WITH A SURFACE
TROUGH FORMING TO THE LEE OF THE ROCKIES. THIS WILL GENERALLY WARM
TEMPERATURES AND BRING WESTERLY DOWNSLOPE WINDS. HOWEVER...WITH THE
NEW SNOWFALL EXPECTED...THE SOUTHWEST VALLEYS WILL BE SLOW TO WARM.
WEAK DISTURBANCES IN THE WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL ALSO KEEP A SLIGHT
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AROUND THE AREA. A MORE NORTHWEST FLOW IS FORECAST
TO DEVELOP WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT WITH A COLD FRONT
MOVING SOUTH THROUGH THE STATE. AS MENTIONED ABOVE...AM RELUCTANT TO
GO COMPLETELY WITH THIS FORECAST JUST YET...SO HAVE ONLY SHIFTED
WINDS NORTHWESTERLY AND ONLY SLIGHTLY COOLED TEMPERATURES TO NEAR
NORMAL LEVELS. HAVE ALSO ONLY KEPT PRECIPITATION OVER THE WESTERN
MOUNTAINS.  COULSTON

FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...MODELS TEND TO AGREE ON THIS PERIOD AND HAVE
SLOWED PROGRESS OF RIDGE TO BUILD OVER THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. A
NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL BRING A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR A FEW ISOLATED
MOUNTAIN SNOW SHOWERS FOR THE NORTHWEST MOUNTAINS. OTHERWISE
MOSTLY TO PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES WILL COVER THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN
ZONES OF THE CWA. WESTERLY WINDS WILL BE A BIT BREEZY FOR THE
ROCKY MOUNTAIN FRONT FOR MOST OF THE PERIOD. TEMPERATURES WILL BE
SLIGHTLY ABOVE SEASONAL NORMALS FOR THE CENTRAL ZONES. SAUCIER

&&

.AVIATION...
UPDATED 0600Z
A BRISK SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL CONTINUE ALOFT...AS AN
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES SOUTHEAST FROM CENTRAL ALBERTA
TONIGHT...TOWARDS THE GLASGOW AREA BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
THEREFORE EXPECT BREEZY SURFACE WINDS TO CONTINUE OVER NORTH
CENTRAL MT...AND THE CHANCE FOR PRECIP. PRECIP WILL BE MAINLY OVER
THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS AND SOUTHWEST MT. GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED THROUGH 00Z SUNDAY...BUT IFR CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY IN
AND NEAR RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS ACTIVITY THROUGH THE PERIOD. EXPECT
THE BULK OF THE PRECIP TO EXIT THE REGION AROUND 18Z SATURDAY.
