.SYNOPSIS...INCREASING SOUTHWEST FLOW AHEAD OF A COLD PACIFIC
TROUGH WILL DEVELOP TODAY AND REMAIN OVER THE AREA THROUGH FRIDAY.
THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL MOVE OVER NORTHWEST UTAH FRIDAY
NIGHT THEN MOVE SLOWLY OVER THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA SATURDAY.

&&

.DISCUSSION...RIDGE HAS MOVED EAST AND SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT IS
ESTABLISHING AHEAD OF THE NEXT SYSTEM. MOISTURE HAS INCREASED
SLIGHTLY WITH MIXING RATIOS BARELY ABOVE 3 G/KG AND CONVECTION
SHOULD DEVELOP OVER THE MOUNTAINS TODAY AS ENOUGH MID-LEVEL
MOISTURE IS PRESENT.

FLOW ALOFT INCREASES AGAIN TOMORROW AS THE COLD FRONT APPROACHES
THE AREA. NAM AND GFS WARM 700 MB TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY TO 11-16
DEGREES CELSIUS OVER THE AREA WITH GFS 700 MB WINDS APPROACHING
45-50 KNOTS. NAM WINDS AT 700 MB SEEM UNDERDONE BUT NAM BOUNDARY
LAYER WINDS STILL INDICATE THAT FRIDAY WILL BE WINDY WITH
BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS INCREASING TO 20-25 KNOTS BY FRIDAY EVENING.
ALL MODELS AGREE WITH GOOD THERMAL PACKING ALONG THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY THOUGH ECMWF CONTINUES TO BACK OFF FRONTS STRENGTH ON THE
00Z RUNS. NAM...GFS...AND UKMET ALL BRING -4 TO -6 DEGREES
TEMPERATURES AT 700 MB INTO NORTHERN UTAH. LAKE EFFECT SHOWERS
SHOULD BE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BEHIND THE FRONT AS THE GREAT SALT
LAKE SURFACE TEMPERATURE IS AVERAGING 15 DEGREES CELSIUS. WITH -4
DEGREES CELSIUS AIR MOVING OVER THE LAKE BEHIND THE FRONT...THERE
IS ENOUGH OF LAKE-AIR TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE TO GET LAKE EFFECT
SHOWERS GOING. A GOOD AMOUNT OF SHEAR IS PRESENT ALONG THE FRONT
