AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BOISE ID
1255 PM MDT THU JUN 8 2006

.UPDATE...ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS WITH LARGE HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS
WILL MOVE NORTHEAST AROUND 15 MPH THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING OVER SW
IDAHO. IN ADDITION HEAVY RAINFALL/FLASH FLOOD AND CONTINUED HIGH
ELEVATION SNOWMELT HAVE BROUGHT RENEWED HYDROLOGY CONCERNS.

.HYDROLOGY...THE FLASH FLOOD THREAT FOR THE WEST CENTRAL AND BOISE
MOUNTAINS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL EARLY EVENING AND THEN DIMINISH AS
DRIER AND COOLER AIR WORKS IN FROM THE WEST. RIVERS ORIGINATING AT
HIGH ELEVATIONS SUCH AS THE BOISE AND BIGWOOD HAVE ALSO RESPONDED TO
THE RECENT HOT WEATHER AND SHOWER ACTIVITY. MINOR FLOODING HAS
RE-DEVELOPED NEAR HAILEY ON THE BIGWOOD BUT IS NOT EXPECTED TO
SPREAD DOWNSTREAM BELOW MAGIC RESERVOIR.  FLOWS ON THE BOISE RIVER
HAVE ALSO INCREASED JUST AS RESERVOIRS ARE REACHING FULL CAPACITY.
THIS MEANS THAT FLOW PAST GLENWOOD BRIDGE WILL INCREASE TO AROUND
5000 CFS THROUGH THE WEEKEND. RIVER LEVELS THROUGH BOISE WILL RISE
ABOUT 2 FEET ABOVE LEVELS OBSERVED ON THURSDAY. THESE LEVELS WILL BE
BELOW FLOOD STAGE BUT HIGH ENOUGH TO CAUSE WATER ENCROACHMENT ONTO
SOME AREAS OF THE GREEN BELT PATH.

.AVIATION...KTWF...A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM SOUTHWEST OF TWIN FALLS
WILL MOVE NE AROUND 15 MPH THROUGH NE TWF COUNTY THROUGH 130 PM. SEE
WUUS55/WWUS55 KBOI BOISVRBOI/BOISVSBOI FOR DETAILS.
PREVIOUSLY...PREDOMINANTLY VFR CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT HOWEVER MUCH OF THE CENTRAL/BOISE MOUNTAINS OF
IDAHO WILL SEE DETERIORATING CONDITIONS BY NOON. OVER EASTERN OREGON
BUILDING MARITIME HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING NORTHWEST WINDS...DRIER
AND MORE STABLE AIR THROUGH KBNO-KBKE 18Z-21Z...UNTIL THEN EXPECT
ISOLATED IFR VIS IN THUNDERSTORMS WITH MVFR CEILINGS AND MOUNTAIN
OBSCURATION. THROUGH 6Z IN THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS AND UNTIL 3Z OVER
THE SOUTHWEST IDAHO MOUNTAINS EXPECT NUMEROUS SHOWERS TO DEVELOP
WITH THUNDERSTORMS INCREASING IN COVERAGE FROM ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED. EXPECT VIS DOWN TO 2 MILES AND CIG DOWN TO 1500 FT IN
PRECIPITATION WITH SFC WINDS AROUND 35KTS IN AND NEAR THUNDERSTORMS.
HEAVY RAIN IS EXPECTED WITH THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING
MAINLY THROUGH THE CENTRAL/BOISE MOUNTAINS WITH IFR CIG/VIS.
POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR STRONG TO ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND ESPECIALLY EARLY EVENING OVER NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE
FORECAST AREA.  ISOLATED WIND GUSTS TO 50 KTS WITH BRIEF HEAVY RAIN
AND HAIL IS ALSO POSSIBLE IN AND NEAR THIS ISOLATED SEVERE
CONVECTION.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...AS THE HIGH PRESSURE AREA OVER THE GREAT BASIN
CONTINUES TO SHIFT EASTWARD SO DOES THE PULL OF MOISTURE FROM
CENTRAL MEXICO. CLOUD COVER IS THINNING IN THE SOUTHWEST PORTIONS OF
OUR OREGON ZONES AS WELL AS IN THE TREASURE VALLEY. THE MAIN CONCERN
OVER OUR IDAHO ZONES IS THAT THIS ADDED HEATING WILL FURTHER
DESTABILIZE THE ATMOSPHERE LEADING TO THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT WITH
THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME STORMS BECOMING SEVERE. A FEW TENTHS OF AN
INCH OF RAIN HAS ALREADY FALLEN FROM THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE BOISE
AND WEST CENTRAL MOUNTAINS WITH ADDITIONAL SHOWERS EXPECTED IN A
MOIST AND DESTABILIZING ATMOSPHERE...SO A FLASH FLOOD WATCH WAS
ISSUED FOR THOSE MOUNTAIN ZONES. HAVE RAISED THE QPF AND POP VALUES
IN THE GRIDS TO REFLECT THIS. OTHERWISE FORECAST LOOKS TO BE ON
TRACK. SEE PREVIOUS DISCUSSION.

&&
.BOI WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
ID...FLASH FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 6 PM FOR ZONES 11 AND 13
OR...NONE.
