AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHEYENNE WY
252 PM MST TUE NOV 7 2006

.SHORT TERM...FOR TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...STEADY SYNOPTIC
TRANSITION THROUGH THE PERIOD AS THE CURRENT UPPER RIDGE SLIDES EAST
MAKING WAY FOR A DEVELOPING EASTERN PACIFIC TROUGH.  A STRONG
ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW OVER WESTERN CANADA IS RESOLVED WELL BY THE
GFS AND WRF THIS HOUR...AND BOTH SOLUTIONS DRAG IT ALONG A PATH
TOWARDS THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES BY MID AFTERNOON WEDNESDAY.  AS IT
PASSES BY WYOMING OVERNIGHT...THE GRADIENTS WILL TIGHTEN MAKING
ANOTHER PERIOD OF HIGH WINDS POSSIBLE.  RAW GUIDANCE NUMBERS ARE NOT
AT ALL IMPRESSIVE...BUT 700 MB WIND PROGS ARE VERY MUCH SO...WITH 50
TO 70 KTS SUSTAINED ACROSS THE WESTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA.
THIS ALONE LENDS CONFIDENCE IN A WIND EVENT FOR THE LARAMIE RANGE
AND SIERRA MADRE...BUT NOT SO MUCH FOR THE ADJACENT PLAINS.
HOWEVER..CONSIDERING THE REIGNING CLIMATOLOGICAL GRADIENT
THRESHOLDS...IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE THE GAP WINDS WILL BRING THE
ADJACENT PLAINS TO WARNING CRITERIA.  REGARDLESS...THE GRADIENTS
WOULD NOT TIGHTEN SUFFICIENTLY FOR HIGH WINDS UNTIL AROUND
MIDNIGHT...AND THE PREVIOUS HIGHLIGHT BEGAN AT 00Z WHICH SEEMS TOO
EARLY...SO HAVE DELAYED IT UNTIL 06Z.  WILL LET THE EVENING CREW
MAKE THE FINAL DECISION TO UPGRADE IT OR NOT AND FOR WHAT AREA.  THE
SURFACE LOW WILL TRACK AWAY RAPIDLY DURING THE DAY WEDNESDAY...BUT
IT WILL STILL DRAG A FRONT THROUGH THE CWA IN THE LATE AFTERNOON.
THIS WILL GIVE THE SOUTHERN PLAINS A CHANCE TO WARM UP NICELY
AGAIN.  ALSO BEHIND THE FRONT...THE WINDS WILL TURN UPSLOPE FOR A
SHORT TIME.  DURING THIS SHORT TIME...THE GFS AND WRF HAVE TRENDED
TOWARDS AN INCREASING PROBABILITY OF PRECIP IN THE NORTHERN TIER
CLOSER TO THE UPPER ENERGY.  HAVE THEREFORE ADDED SOME POPS FOR LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

.LONG TERM...AN UPPER TROUGH WILL MOVE INTO THE WESTERN PORTION OF
THE CWA THURSDAY MORNING...WITH PVA OCCURRING ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA.  A COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE WAVE..WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
AREA DURING THE DAY.  ENOUGH MOISTURE WILL BE AVAILABLE TO INCLUDE A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS ACROSS THE CWA.  SNOW WILL OCCUR IN THE MOUNTAINS
AND DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS AT THE LOWER ELEVATIONS.  THE
PRECIP WILL END ON FRIDAY FROM WEST TO EAST...AS THE UPPER TROUGH
AXIS MOVES EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA BY 00Z SAT.  THE PRECIP WILL BE
IN THE FORM OF SNOW THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY MORNING BEFORE
ENDING.  SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY WILL BE DRY AS WESTERLY FLOW
PERSISTS ALOFT...WITH DOWNSLOPE WINDS AT THE SURFACE.  SOME
OROGRAPHIC SNOWFALL WILL OCCUR IN THE SOUTH CENTRAL MOUNTAINS.  HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL BE AROUND NORMAL THURSDAY...THEN FROM 4 TO 8
DEGREES BELOW NORMAL FOR FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.
