NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPOKANE WA
433 PM PDT THU MAY 15 2008
.SYNOPSIS...
DRY AND INCREASINGLY WARM CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL OVER THE INLAND
NORTHWEST THROUGH THE WEEKEND...WITH NEAR RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURES
AND POSSIBLE RIVER FLOODING EXPECTED BY SATURDAY AS MOUNTAIN SNOW
MELTS OFF AT AN ACCELERATED RATE.
&&
.DISCUSSION...
UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION.
TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...LONGWAVE RIDGE PARKED OVER THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST AMPLIFIES WITH TIME THROUGH THIS FORECAST PERIOD
ALLOWING FOR A SUBSTANTIAL WARMING TREND COUPLED WITH A DRY
FORECAST. FLOOD WATCH WILL BE ISSUED TO ADDRESS THE INCREASED
SNOW MELT AFFECT ON AREA RIVERS AND STREAMS. A SUBTLE CHANGE TO
MONITOR IN THIS SCENARIO WILL BE HOW THE LOW LEVEL THERMAL RIDGE
AT 850MB MIGRATES FROM THE COAST AND OVER THE CASCADES TO NORTHWEST
MONTANA...TIMING NOW SUGGESTS THE THERMAL RIDGE WILL BE ON THE
WEST SIDE AND OVER THE CASCADES FRIDAY...THEN MOVES OVER TO
EASTERN WASHINGTON AND NORTHERN IDAHO SATURDAY...AND SUNDAY VIA TWO
MINI MARINE PUSHES INTO THE WEST SIDE WITH THE STRONGER MARINE
PUSH SHOWING UP SUNDAY WITH ENOUGH STRENGTH TO INCREASE SKY COVER
SOME AND ALLOW FOR INCREASED WIND WITH MINOR COOLING SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. /PELATTI
SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...THERE IS REASONABLE MODEL AGREEMENT
FOR THE MONDAY PERIOD SUGGESTING A WEAKENING OF THE UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE OVER THE REGION...BUT THE STORM TRACK WILL STILL REMAIN WELL
TO THE NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. THUS NO SIGNIFICANT
PRECIPITATION CHANCES YET...BUT A SLIGHT COOLING TREND LOOKS
PLAUSIBLE ON MONDAY. MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY MODEL AGREEMENT
CONTINUES TO ADVERTISE THE PASSAGE OF A SIGNIFICANT UPPER LEVEL
WAVE THROUGH THE REGION. THERE ARE MINOR TIMING DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN THE GFS/ECMWF AND CANADIAN MODEL REGARDING THE ASSOCIATED
COLD FRONT PASSAGE...BUT THERE IS ENOUGH AGREEMENT TO ALLOW
INCREASING CONFIDENCE THAT ON OR ABOUT TUESDAY WILL BE THE NEXT
SIGNIFICANT CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION ALONG WITH A NOTICEABLE COOLING
TREND.
BY WEDNESDAY MODEL AGREEMENT REGARDING THE NATURE OF THE TROUGH
DEGENERATES...WITH THE GFS SWEEPING THE TROUGH THROUGH THE REGION
AND COMMENCING AN NEW RIDGE CYCLE...WHILE THE ECMWF AND CANADIAN
MODELS SLOW AND DIG THE TROUGH INTO A DEEP MEAN TROUGH OVER THE
WESTERN USA. CONFIDENCE IS THUS LOWER FOR THESE FAR PERIODS...BUT
WILL HEDGE FORECAST TOWARD THE ECMWF AND CANADIAN CONSENSUS FEATURING
A MORE SHOWERY AND UNSETTLED COOLER REGIME CHARACTERISTIC OF A
MEAN TROUGH OVER THE REGION. /FUGAZZI
