.SYNOPSIS...AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH
THROUGH TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION
MONDAY THROUGH MIDWEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...ONGOING SEVERE EVENT ACROSS MUCH IF THE EASTERN CWA.
STRONG DIVERGENCE ALOFT OUT AHEAD OF A COLD UPPER LEVEL LOW WORKING
WITH DEEP MOISTURE ACROSS EASTERN UTAH AND WESTERN CO...WITH THE
BEST DYNAMICS ROTATING NORTHWARD INTO SOUTHERN WYOMING. SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH IN EFFECT UNTIL 8PM MDT...BIGGEST THREAT IS LARGE
HAIL. MORE ROBUST STORMS HAVE RADAR SIGNATURES OF UP TO 3 INCH
HAIL...BUT ARE OVER RURAL AREAS WITH SPARSE REPORTING. DID RECEIVE A
GOLFBALL SIZE REPORT FROM WELLINGTON...NEAR PRICE IN THE LAST FEW
MINUTES. SOME OF THE SLOWER MOVING STORMS ARE A FLASH FLOOD THREAT
AS WELL.

FURTHER WEST...THE UPPER LOW ITSELF IS OVER THE GSL AND MOVING
SOUTHEASTWARD. MUCH LESS CONVECTION NEAR THE CENTER OF THE
LOW...JUST COME SCATTERED POPCORN SHOWERS/-TSRA THAT MAY DROP A FEW
SMALL HAILSTONES INTO THE EVENING. A BAND OF WRAP-AROUND SHOWERS
WILL ENTER NORTHERN UTAH THIS EVENING...SO LEFT SCATTERED POPS IN
MOST OF BOX ELDER CO FOR THE FIRST FEW HOURS THIS EVENING.

MID AND UPPER LEVELS STABILIZE QUICKLY OVERNIGHT AS THE LOW MOVES
OUT...AND WITH GRADUALLY DIMINISHING WINDS ON SUNDAY...EXPECT A
QUIET DAY STATEWIDE. AN UPPER RIDGE MOVES OVER THE REGION MONDAY.
GOOD AGREEMENT IN THE MODELS FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

A QUICK RETURN TO SOUTHERLY FLOW ON TUESDAY...EQUALLY AS RAPID
WARMUP AS WELL. H7 TEMPS JUMP TO 10-12C ON MONDAY...THEN 15-16C ON
TUESDAY...SENDING SURFACE TEMPS IN LOWER ELEVATIONS BACK INTO THE
90S ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH...AND 100S IN THE WARMER SOUTHWEST.

LITTLE CHANGE TO THE EXTENDED FORECAST BEYOND MIDWEEK. NEXT COOL
SHOT IS PROGGED TO MOVE IN BY THURSDAY. THIS MAY BE A POTENT
STORM...THE GFS IS ADVERTISING A COMPLEX LOW CENTER OVER THE
NORTHERN US ROCKIES WITH A STRONG EMBEDDED SHORTWAVE THAT SWEEPS
ACROSS EXTREME NORTHERN UTAH.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER....FIRE WEATHER...EXPECT WINDS AND HUMIDITIES TO REACH
CRITICAL LEVELS AGAIN FOR A TIME LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS
EVENING SOUTH OF THE FRONT ALONG THE ARIZONA BORDER SO HAVE KEPT THE
RED FLAG WARNING GOING TIL 8PM.

A STABLE DRY AIRMASS WITH MODERATE NORTH WINDS WILL BE OVER THE AREA
SUNDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS. WINDS SUNDAY FOR THE MOST PART WILL
REMAIN BELOW CRITICAL SPEEDS AND HUMIDITIES ABOVE CRITICAL LEVELS.

SOUTHWEST UTAH MAY APPROACH CRITICAL LEVELS SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS THE
NORTHEAST WINDS FUNNEL THROUGH THE GAPS.

THIS AFTERNOON. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ALL AROUND
THE AIRFIELD. A 30 PERCENT CHANCE OF A THUNDERSTORM MOVING ACROSS
