AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPOKANE WA
1113 AM PST TUE MAR 7 2006

.SYNOPSIS...AN UNSETTLED PATTERN WILL BRING SHOWER ACTIVITY TO MOST
AREAS TODAY. A BRIEF BREAK IN THE WEATHER IS EXPECTED TONIGHT. THEN
A STRONGER WEATHER SYSTEM WILL IMPACT THE AREA WEDNESDAY BRINGING THE
THREAT OF HIGH WINDS AND SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL TO THE MOUNTAINS.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
MIXED SHOWERS WERE REPORTED THIS MORNING AS AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
MOVED INTO THE AREA. THE ATMOSPHERE WITH THE TROUGH IS
CONDITIONALLY UNSTABLE...AND AT THE TIME SKIES ARE CLEARING. THIS
WILL BE SHORT LIVED HOWEVER AS THE ADDITIONAL SUNSHINE WILL SURELY
INCREASE CONVECTION THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS. AS SUCH EXPECT A
CONTINUATION OF RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS. THE ATMOSPHERE IS UNSTABLE
ENOUGH TO SUPPORT ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN
OF THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS AND THE IDAHO PANHANDLE THIS AFTERNOON
AS WELL. WINDS ARE SLOWLY ON THE INCREASE ACROSS THE COLUMBIA BASIN
AND SPOKANE AREA AS WELL. ALL THIS IS HANDLED IN THE CURRENT
FORECAST. I ONLY MADE A FEW MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO THE MAX
TEMPERATURES. /TOBIN

&&

.AVIATION...AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL MOVE THROUGH THE INLAND
NORTHWEST TODAY. THIS TROUGH WILL HELP TO DESTABILIZE THE
ATMOSPHERE AND BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF UNSETTLED WEATHER TO THE
AREA. EXPECT PERIODS OF SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS ACROSS MUCH
OF THE EASTERN COLUMBIA BASIN...EASTERN WASHINGTON AND NORTHERN
IDAHO THROUGH 06Z THIS EVENING. SHOWERS WILL BE MORE COMMON OVER
THE HIGHER TERRAIN ALONG THE CASCADE CREST AND MOUNTAINS OF
NORTHERN IDAHO. PRIMARILY MVFR CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED WITH
THE SHOWER ACTIVITY WITH SOME AREAS POSSIBLY SEEING IFR CONDITIONS.
MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS WILL REMAIN A SIGNIFICANT THREAT ON CROSS
CASCADE ROUTES...ROUTES ALONG THE NORTHERN TIER OF WASHINGTON AND
THE NORTHERN IDAHO PANHANDLE. PLEASE SEE THE LATEST AVIATION
FORECAST PRODUCTS FOR DETAILS ON TIMING. /TOBIN
