THE NEXT SYSTEM IS SLOWLY STRETCHING THE 150KT JET TO THE NORTH AND
EAST REMOVING THE REGION FROM ITS WINDY SUBSIDENCE QUADRANT.
MEANWHILE...SURFACE GRADIENTS WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN THROUGHOUT THE
LATE AFTERNOON...SO THE HIGH WIND WARNING SHOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM
EXPIRING ON TIME.  THE MID LEVELS WILL BECOME DRIER THIS EVENING
UNDER THE WEAK RIDGE...SO THE STEADY MOUNTAIN PRECIP SHOULD
WANE...BUT THE FLOW WILL STILL BE FAVORABLE FOR SCATTERED OROGRAPHIC
SHOWERS...SO HAVE KEPT LOW GRADE POPS IN THROUGH THE PERIOD
OVERNIGHT.  FRIDAY WILL SEE A RETURN TO STRONG SOUTHWEST UPPER FLOW
AS A PACIFIC TROUGH APPROACHES THE COAST.  A PRONOUNCED THICKNESS
RIDGE IN BOTH THE NAM AND GFS WILL MARK LEE TROUGH FORMATION DURING
THE DAY ALSO.  THIS SPELLS ANOTHER WARM AND WINDY DAY FOR THE ENTIRE
CWA WITH BOTH PROCESSES IN GEAR.  LATE TOMORROW NIGHT THE ASSOCIATED
SURFACE TROUGH AHEAD OF THE MAIN UPPER TROUGH WILL CROSS AS A WEAK
COLD FRONT.  SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE NEAR AND BEHIND
THE FRONT...BUT CROSS SECTIONS REVEAL A MOSTLY DRY ATMOSPHERE UNTIL
SATURDAY MORNING...ONLY SUFFICIENT FOR SLIGHT CHANCE POPS.  THE
MOUNTAINS WILL BE A DIFFERENT STORY WITH PLENTY OF AVAILABLE MID
LEVEL MOISTURE FOR SHOWERS BEGINNING LATE FRIDAY.

.LONG TERM...SW FLOW WILL OCCUR ALOFT SAT AS AN UPPER TROUGH
CONTINUES TO MOVE INLAND ALONG THE CA COAST.  MOISTURE WILL BE DEEP
OVER THE AREA ESPECIALLY WEST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE.  PIECES OF
ENERGY WILL EJECT OUT OF THE MAIN TROUGH AND MOVE ACROSS THE CWA SAT
AND SUN.  MAY NEED SOME WINTER WEATHER HIGHLIGHTS FOR SATURDAY AND
SATURDAY NIGHT WEST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE...BUT WILL LET THE MID
SHIFT TAKE ANOTHER LOOK.  8 TO 12 INCHES OF SNOW IS POSSIBLE IN THE
MOUNTAINS ON SAT.  THE SNOW WILL SPREAD EAST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE
SAT NIGHT.  THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST...INTO
THE FOUR CORNERS AREA SUNDAY.  ON MONDAY...THE TROUGH WILL DIG
FURTHER TO THE SOUTH AND A CLOSED LOW WILL FORM OVER SRN CA AND AZ.
ANOTHER UPPER TROUGH AXIS WILL SWING ACROSS MT AND INTO THE NORTHERN
PLAINS MON.  WILL CONTINUE A CHANCE OF SNOW FOR THE ENTIRE CWA SUN

EAST OF THE AREA AND NW FLOW SETS UP ALOFT.  HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL
BE AROUND NORMAL SAT...5 TO 10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL FOR SUN THROUGH
TUESDAY...AND AROUND NORMAL FOR WED AND THUR.
