244 AM MDT MON OCT 8 2007

.DISCUSSION...

CLOUD COVER IS CONTINUING TO MOVE OUT OF THE REGION THIS MORNING.
THERE ARE STILL SOME LOWER LEVEL CLOUDS OVER THE EASTERN HIGHLAND
AND CENTRAL MOUNTAINS THAT WILL EVENTUALLY MIX OUT THIS MORNING.
MEANWHILE...A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE BUILDING OVER THE
AREA. THIS WILL PRODUCE MAINLY SUNNY CONDITIONS FOR EVERYONE BY
AFTERNOON. CLEAR SKIES SHOULD PREVAIL TONIGHT WITH TEMPERATURES
EXPECTED TO DROP TO AROUND FREEZING IN THE SNAKE PLAIN FROM
ROUGHLY AMERICAN FALLS UPSTREAM. WILL ISSUE A FREEZE WARNING FOR
THESE AREAS.

TRANQUIL WEATHER SHOULD PREVAIL UNTIL WEDNESDAY WHEN A SHORTWAVE
TROUGH WILL MOVE THROUGH SOUTHWEST IDAHO AND THE CENTRAL
MOUNTAINS. THIS WILL PRODUCE A CHANCE FOR SOME LIGHT PRECIP ACROSS
THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS DURING THIS TIME.

A SHORTWAVE RIDGE WILL BUILD BACK OVER THE REGION FOR THURSDAY.
THEN ON FRIDAY...SHOULD SEE AN INCREASE IN CLOUD COVER AS A WEAK
UPPER LOW MOVES ACROSS NEVADA AND UTAH. THIS SHOULD PRODUCE CLOUD
COVER FOR FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. QPF AMOUNTS ARE VERY LOW
RESULTING IN LOW PRECIP CHANCES. UNLIKE THE LAST SYSTEM...THIS LOW
APPEARS TO BE MUCH WEAKER AND DOES NOT HAVE NEAR AS MUCH MOISTURE
WITH IT.

CLOUDS CLOSER TO THE CONT DIVIDE EARLY THIS AM. VFR CONDITIONS BEING

VFR EXPECTED AREAWIDE LATER TODAY. SOME BREEZY WINDS AT KBYI AND
KPIH WILL STAY AROUND TODAY ALTHOUGH THEY WILL LIKELY BE STRONGEST
