AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
400 PM MDT WED AUG 22 2007

.SYNOPSIS...A MORE ACTIVE WESTERLY FLOW WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE
NORTHERN HALF OF THE GREAT BASIN THROUGH FRIDAY WITH TWO WEAK
TROUGHS MOVING THROUGH. WEAK RIDGING IS EXPECTED TO RETURN FOR THE
WEEKEND.

&&

.DISCUSSION...THE BEST DYNAMICS MOVED ACROSS SOUTHERN IDAHO THIS
AFTERNOON PRODUCING A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. FARTHER SOUTH OVER
NORTHERN UTAH MOST OF THE ACTIVITY WAS MUCH WEAKER EXCEPT FOR ONE
STORM THAT SPUN UP OVER NORTHWEST UINTA COUNTY WYOMING. THE RIGHT
ENTRANCE REGION OF THE JET LOCATED OVER NORTHEAST NEVADA THIS
AFTERNOON IS STILL TO COME ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH THIS EVENING SO
ANOTHER ROUND OF ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS AND SHOWERS EXPECTED.

THE COOL FRONT SURFACE BOUNDARY FROM A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO REMAINS
OVER JUAB AND UTAH COUNTY THIS AFTERNOON WITH BREEZY SOUTH WINDS AND
LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY SOUTH OF THIS BOUNDARY WHILE NORTH WINDS
CONTINUE OVER NORTHERN UTAH. THIS BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO BECOME
SOMEWHAT REINFORCED TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY AS THE NORTHERLY
SURFACE GRADIENT INCREASES AND THE 700 MB FLOW BECOMES CONVERGENT IN
THIS AREA. THAT COMBINED WITH THE JET DYNAMICS OF THE SYSTEM EXITING
THE AREA AND MOISTURE THAT IS INCREASING OVER THE AREA THIS
AFTERNOON WILL PRODUCE AN AREA OF INSTABILITY STRETCHING FROM ABOUT
NORTHERN MILLARD COUNTY NORTHEAST INTO THE UINTAS.  THE 700-500MB
THETA-E RIDGE ALIGNS WELL WITH THIS AREA AS WELL.

HAVE UNDER CUT MOS TEMPS A TAD FOR MANY NORTHERN SITES THURSDAY AS
THIS PUSH OF NORTHERLY WINDS IS QUITE SHALLOW AND IS NOT BEING
REFLECTED WELL IN THE 700 MB TEMPS. HAVE LEANED TOWARD THE ETA 850
MB TEMP TREND WHICH IS A FEW DEGREES COOLER THAN THE GFS. IN
ADDITION TEMPS ACROSS SOUTHERN IDAHO ARE MAINLY IN THE UPPER 70S
THIS AFTERNOON. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL ONCE AGAIN BLOW ACROSS SOUTHERN
UTAH AHEAD OF THIS BOUNDARY.

THIS BOUNDARY CONTINUES TO BE A FOCUSING MECHANISM FOR CONVECTION
THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY OVER EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA.

THE RIDGE REBUILDS OVER THE AREA SATURDAY FOR WARMER TEMPERATURES.
MOISTURE FROM EX-HURRICANE DEAN WILL MOVE INTO NORTHWEST MEXICO AND
SOUTHERN ARIZONA BY SATURDAY MORNING AND COULD REACH SOUTHWEST UTAH
BY SATURDAY EVENING. THE EC AND GFS BOTH INDICATE THAT THE RIDGE
OVER NEW MEXICO WILL MOVE EAST AND ALLOW A SURGE OF MOISTURE TO MOVE
NORTHWARD. A TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO STRETCH OUT NORTH-SOUTH ALONG THE
WEST COAST COME EARLY NEXT WEEK AND THIS WILL ALLOW THE DEEP MOIST
SOUTHERLY FLOW TO CONTINUE OVER THE REGION THROUGH MIDWEEK.  HAVE
BASICALLY GONE WITH SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE POPS ALL AREAS MONDAY
THROUGH TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...NORTHWEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE AT THE SLC
TERMINAL THROUGH THIS EVENING DUE TO NORTHERLY PRESSURE GRADIENT.
SOUTHERLY DRAINAGE WINDS MAY NOT RETURN TONIGHT...BUT IF THEY DO IT
WILL LIKELY NOT HAPPEN UNTIL AFTER 06Z. HOWEVER...THERE IS A 30
PERCENT CHANCE THAT GUSTY AND ERRATIC OUTFLOW WINDS FROM NEARBY
THUNDERSTORMS MAY IMPACT THE SLC TERMINAL THIS EVENING BETWEEN
23-06Z.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...THE SURFACE TROUGH ACROSS CENTRAL UTAH HAS GENERATED
SIGNIFICANT WINDS ACROSS W/CNTRL THROUGH S/CNTRL UTAH THIS
AFTERNOON. THE WINDS COMBINED WITH RH VALUES GENERALLY 10 PERCENT OR
LESS HAVE CREATED POCKETS OF HAZARDOUS FIRE CONDITIONS. NOT PLANNING
ON ANY WARNINGS AS THE EVENTS ARE GENERALLY ISOLATED AND SHOULD
DISSIPATE BY EARLY EVENING.

ISOLATED SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER THE FAR NRN FIRE
WEATHER ZONES THIS AFTERNOON. THIS ACTIVITY IS ASSOCIATED WITH A
TROUGH MOVING EAST THROUGH THE NRN ROCKIES...AND SHOULD END DURING
THE EVENING EXTREME NORTH BUT COULD LINGER THROUGH THE NIGHT ALONG
THE SURFACE BOUNDARY FROM NORTHERN MILLARD COUNTY TO SOUTHERN
DUCHESNE COUNTY.
