AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
951 AM MDT SAT MAY 19 2007

.SYNOPSIS...HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO SHIFT EAST TODAY AND
SUNDAY WITH AN INCREASING SOUTHWEST FLOW DEVELOPING. A COLD FRONT
WILL BEGIN TO MOVE INTO NORTHERN UTAH SUNDAY NIGHT AND PUSH SOUTH
THROUGH THE STATE MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT.

&&

.DISCUSSION...PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES ABOVE .5 INCH WILL BE
CONFINED TO SOUTHEASTERN UTAH THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. WEAK
INSTABILITY WILL ALSO REMAIN FOR WIDELY SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND
EVENING THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE EAST AND PRIMARILY THE
SOUTHEAST. AIRMASS ALSO SHOWS A MORE MOIST AIRMASS OVER SOUTHERN
IDAHO AND COULD SEE ISOLATED CONVECTION DIPPING DOWN INTO NORTHWEST
UTAH AS WELL ESPECIALLY OVER THE RAFT RIVER MOUNTAINS. EXPECT MOST
CONVECTION TO REMAIN SHALLOW WITH VIRGA SHAFTS COLLAPSING INTO
MICROBURSTS A GOOD POSSIBILITY. MODELS INDICATE SOMEWHAT DRIER AIR
WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD INTO THE WESTERN GREAT BASIN TODAY. PACKAGE
LOOK REASONABLE WITH NO UPDATES AT THIS TIME.

LOW CENTER NEAR 50N AND 140W CONTINUES TO PUSH MOISTURE INTO
WASHINGTON AND OREGON AS IT DRIFTS SLOWLY SOUTHEAST. THIS SYSTEM WILL
BEGIN TO AFFECT NORTHERN UTAH SUNDAY EVENING AND MUCH OF THE STATE
MONDAY INTO TUESDAY. SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE
UPSTREAM SYSTEM CONTINUES TO MOVE TOWARD THE STATE. A COLD FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO PUSH INTO NORTHWEST UTAH LATER SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND COULD
KICK OFF ISOLATED CONVECTION ACROSS THE FAR NORTHWEST REACHES OF
STATE. AIRMASS WILL BE SOMEWHAT DRIER OVER SOUTHEAST UTAH UNTIL LATER
MONDAY AND TUESDAY...BUT COULD STILL SEE ISOLATED CONVECTION ANY
GIVEN DAY.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...THE AIRMASS OVER THE STATE WILL CONTINUE TO DRY OUT
FROM WEST TO EAST...AND MANY LOCATIONS BELOW 7000 FT WILL SEE
RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES BELOW CRITICAL VALUES. SOUTHWEST FLOW IS
EXPECTED TO PICK UP TODAY...AND THIS MAY RESULT IN BRIEF PERIODS OF
RED FLAG CONDITIONS...PRIMARILY OVER WESTERN UTAH.

SURFACE WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE TOMORROW AHEAD OF AN
APPROACHING COLD FRONT...RESULTING IN SEVERE FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS
OVER MOST OF WESTERN AND SOUTHERN UTAH. CURRENT FIRE WEATHER WATCH
LOOKS GOOD AND WILL LIKELY BE UPGRADED TO A RED FLAG WARNING WITH
THE AFTERNOON PACKAGE. GUSTY WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST INTO
MONDAY AFTERNOON OVER SOUTHERN UTAH...SO A FIRE WEATHER WATCH WILL
BE NEEDED FOR THAT PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION...A FEW VIRGA SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON MAINLY
TO THE NORTHWEST OF THE SLC TERMINAL. THESE COULD PRODUCE GUSTY
NORTHERLY DOWNBURST WINDS. SOUTHEAST LAND BREEZE EXPECTED THROUGH
MID AFTERNOON COULD BE DISRUPTED BY ANY CONVECTION FIRING AFTER
AROUND 20Z. OTHERWISE NORTHWEST LAKE BREEZE EXPECTED AROUND 21-22Z.
