AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED TYPO
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
300 AM MST TUE NOV 14 2006

.SYNOPSIS...A FAST MOVING STORM SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT
WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION THIS MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD
INTO THE AREA BEHIND THIS SYSTEM FOR THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...WARM AIR ADVECTION AND SHORT WAVE TROUGH EMBEDDED IN
NOSE OF 180 KNOT JET GENERATED PERIODS OF PRECIPITATION ACROSS
NORTHERN UTAH OVERNIGHT. STRONG WESTERLY FLOW HAS RESULTED IN
SIGNIFICANT OROGRAPHIC ENHANCEMENT IN THE NORTHERN WASATCH RANGE
WHERE SNOW DATA SUGGESTS .2 TO .4 INCH SNOW WATER HOURLY RATES.
INTENSE PRECIP HAS KEPT SNOW LEVELS DOWN TO 6000 FEET IN THE
HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION WHICH HAS ALSO EXTENDED INTO THE WESTERN
UINTA MOUNTAINS. SOUTH OF THIS PERIODS OF LIGHTER PRECIPITATION HAVE
BEEN OCCURRING.

COLD AIR ADVECTION NOW DEVELOPING OVER NORTHWEST UTAH AS MAIN UPPER
TROUGH RACES EAST AND IS PUSHING A LOW LEVEL COLD FRONT FROM THE
NORTH ACROSS GSL WHICH JUST WENT THROUGH LOGAN AND IS NEAR OGDEN.
LEADING SQUALL LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL IMPACT THE WASATCH FRONT
NEXT COUPLE HOURS. SIMILAR SNOW WATER RATES WILL MOVE INTO THE
SOUTHERN WASATCH RANGE WITH GRAUPEL LIMITING AMOUNTS NEAR 2 INCH PER
HOUR...WHILE STRONG WINDS CONTINUE. APPEARS TOO WARM BEHIND THE
SURFACE FRONT FOR SNOW AT VALLEY FLOOR BUT BAROCLINIC ZONE DOES
BRING SIGNIFICANT COOLING FROM 12Z TO 15Z. HOWEVER STRONG DRYING
AND SUBSIDENCE FOLLOWS THIS SYSTEM AFTER 15Z ALONG THE WASATCH
FRONT. DEEP OMEGA ON TIME HEIGHTS ENDS AROUND 12Z AT KSLC. A BURST
OF SNOW WILL LIKELY DEVELOP IN THE VALLEYS BUT THE DURATION WILL BE
SHORT THUS LIMITING ACCUMULATIONS WITH ANY SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS ON
THE BENCHES. BAND OF HEAVY RAIN AND MOUNTAIN SNOW WILL SHIFT INTO
CENTRAL UTAH BY MID MORNING. A PERIOD OF SOME VALLEY SNOW ALONG WITH
STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS WILL HAVE AN IMPACT. HAVE ADDED WIND ADVISORY
FOR A NEW HOURS OF STRONG GUSTS AHEAD AND BEHIND THE SURFACE FRONT
IN WESTERN AREAS AS WIND MAY BE THE BIGGEST IMPACT. WILL LIKELY NEED
TO CANCEL SNOW PORTION.

BOUNDARY DIVES INTO SOUTHWEST UTAH BY MIDDAY AND STRONG DRYING
CONTINUES ACROSS THE NORTH WITH DECREASING WINDS AT THE SURFACE
AND ALOFT. POST FRONTAL WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE STRONG IN
MOUNTAINS THROUGH MIDDAY EVEN THOUGH MOST SNOW ENDS. ANY LAKE
ENHANCEMENT WILL HAVE A SMALL WINDOW THIS MORNING AS SUBSIDENCE
INVERSION NEAR 600 MB LOWERS TO NEAR 700 MB THIS AFTERNOON. COLD
NIGHT TONIGHT AND THEN UPPER RIDGE BUILDS INTO THE REGION ON
WEDNESDAY FOR SIGNIFICANT WARMING IN UPPER LEVELS. THIS WILL BE SLOW
TO TRANSLATE DOWN TO THE NORTH AND EAST VALLEYS WHERE TEMPS WILL
WARM LITTLE OR BE SIMILAR. HIGH CLOUDS WILL ARRIVE ON WEDNESDAY AND
06Z NAM IN AGREEMENT WITH THE GFS RUNS WHICH DROPS A BAROCLINIC ZONE
ACROSS FAR NORTHERN UTAH ON THURSDAY AND SOUTH INTO THE I-80
CORRIDOR THURSDAY EVENING AS A JET STREAK PASSES OVERHEAD. THIS
HALTS WARMING AND COOLS ALOFT FOR NORTHERN AREAS INTO FRIDAY. SOME
LIGHT PRECIPITATION MAY REACH AS FAR SOUTH AS SLC-PVU DURING
THURSDAY NIGHT.

HAVE KEPT FORECAST INLINE WITH UKMET AND ECMWF WITH MORE PREVAILING
UPPER RIDGING FOR THE WEEKEND INTO MONDAY...THOUGH THE LATEST GFS
RUN DROPS THE BOUNDARY THROUGH UTAH ON SATURDAY AND THEN DEVELOPS
RIDGING FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY. ENSEMBLE MEAN DOES INDICATE A WEAK
SHORT WAVE TROUGH LOWERING HEIGHTS ON SATURDAY WHICH WOULD SUPPORT
COOLING SPREADING SOUTH ACROSS THE AREA...HOWEVER SPREAD IS LARGE.

&&

.AVIATION...COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS THE GSL THIS HOUR WILL BRING
A WIND SHIFT TO KSLC NEAR 11Z. POST FRONTAL WINDS COULD GUST
TO 45 KNOTS FOR A COUPLE HOURS THEN DECREASE. A PERIOD OF HEAVY RAIN
AND MVFR EXPECTED WITH COLD FRONT THEN MIXED WITH OR CHANGING TO
LIGHT SNOW AFTER 14Z. 30 PERCENT CHANCE FOR IFR IN SNOW BUT MORE
LIKELY MVFR DURING THE 14-16Z TIME FRAME.
