400 AM MDT MON MAY 22 2006

.SYNOPSIS...A COOL PACIFIC STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
INTERMOUNTAIN REGION TODAY AND TONIGHT.  THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING
WINDY CONDITIONS AND SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO MUCH OF
UTAH.  A DRIER PATTERN WITH A GRADUAL WARMING TREND CAN BE EXPECTED
MID WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...FORECAST CONCERNS ARE STRONG WINDS FROM LATE MORNING
INTO EVENING AND SEVERE STORM POTENTIAL.

NAM HAS BETTER HANDLE ON ISOLATED SHOWERS OVER EASTERN AND SOUTH
CENTRAL UTAH DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.  LOW POPS JUSTIFIED
THIS MORNING BASED ON CURRENT ACTIVITY AND CONTINUED THETA E
ADVECTION AND WEAK SHORTWAVE.  FOCUS IS ON THIS AFTERNOON AS
STRONGER DYNAMICS...5H TROUGH PIVOTS ACROSS REGION ALONG WITH A
RIBBON OF UPPER LEVEL DIFLUENCE.  WITH INCREASING MOISTURE...PW
VALUES GETTING TO AROUND THREE QUARTERS OF AN INCH AND LIFT...EXPECT
NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER SOUTHWEST SECTIONS AND
SCATTERED ACTIVITY ELSEWHERE.  STRONG SHEAR INDICATED...BUT
INSTABILITY VALUES REMAIN MARGINAL...CAPES TO 400 AND LI VALUES TO
MINUS 1...SO SEVERE POTENTIAL STILL IN QUESTION.  IF ORGANIZED CELLS
DEVELOP...THEY WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WINDS.  SHOWER
AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL DIMINISH QUICKLY FROM SOUTHWEST TO
NORTHEAST OVERNIGHT AND ONLY NORTHEAST SECTIONS WILL SEE ANY
POTENTIAL FOR PRECIPITATION ON TUESDAY.  AS FOR WINDS...NAM
INDICATES 35 KNOT 700 WINDS AND 50 TO 55 KNOTS AT 500 MB THIS
AFTERNOON.
WL OPT FOR WIND ADVISORY FOR WEST DESERT AREAS AND MUCH OF CENTRAL
AND SOUTHERN UTAH.  QUIETER WEATHER IN STORE FOR MID WEAK WITH A
GRADUAL WARMING TREND AS RIDGE BUILDS OVER REGION.  GFS HAS
TRENDED A BIT DEEPER WITH SYSTEM FOR THE WEEKEND...SO HAVE BUMPED
POPS UP A BIT AND LOWERED TEMPERATURES SOME OVER NORTHERN SECTIONS.
