AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE POCATELLO ID
1251 PM MDT SUN JUN 29 2008

.DISCUSSION...RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN THE DOMINANT
FEATURE THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST. AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM REMAIN
POSSIBLE OVER THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
BETTER CHANCES EXIST MONDAY AFTERNOON AND TUESDAY AFTERNOON AS THE
FLOW BECOMES MORE SOUTHWESTERLY WITH THE RIDGE BECOMING DISPLACED
OFF TO THE EAST. VERY LITTLE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED WITH THESE
STORMS...ALTHOUGH GUSTY WINDS COULD ACCOMPANY THEM. THE RIDGE IS
EXPECTED TO REESTABLISH ITSELF BY WEDNESDAY WITH LOW CHANCES FOR
THUNDERSTORMS THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST. TODAY AND MONDAY ARE
EXPECTED TO BE THE WARMEST DAYS. SLIGHTLY COOLER TEMPS FOR TUESDAY
AND WEDNESDAY AS THE RIDGE BREAKS DOWN. WARMER TEMPS ONCE AGAIN
FOR LATE WEEK AS THE RIDGE STRENGTHENS.

&&

.AVIATION...CUMULUS BEGINNING TO BUILD THIS AFTN. ISOLD -TS ARE
POSSIBLE MAINLY OVER HIGHER TERRAIN. WITH DRY AIR IN PLACE...THE
MOST LIKELY EFFECTS FOR TSTORMS WILL BE GUSTY DOWNBURST WINDS WITH
VERY LITTLE IF ANY RAIN. REDUCED VIS DUE TO BLOWING DUST IS A
POSSIBILITY AS WELL. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED. MOST OF
THE CONVECTION WILL END AFTER SUNSET WITH A FEW LINGERING STORMS
POSSIBLE. A REPEAT IS EXPECTED ON MON WITH A LITTLE MORE AREAL
COVERAGE OF STORMS.  KEYES

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE AXIS WILL BE SHIFTING TO OUR
EAST BY LATER TODAY AND TONIGHT. THIS WILL ALLOW LIMITED MOISTURE
AND WEAK SYSTEMS TO MOVE ACROSS THE REGION FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
ISOLD TSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE INTO THE EVENING MAINLY OVER THE MTNS.
GUSTY DOWNBURST WINDS AND LITTLE IF ANY RAINFALL IS EXPECTED WITH
THIS ACTIVITY. MOST OF THE STORMS WILL DIE OFF AFTER SUNSET WITH A
FEW POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT. FOR MON AND TUES...IT APPEARS A LITTLE
BETTER CHANCE OF STORMS IS IN THE FORECAST WITH THE MOST LIKELY
PLACES FOR STORMS TO DEVELOP WILL BE IN THE MTNS. SOME OF THESE
STORMS COULD DRIFT OVER SNAKE PLAIN..SIMILAR TO TODAY...WHICH WOULD
DEFINITELY INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD OF DOWNBURST WINDS. THE RAINFALL
POTENTIAL INCREASES EVER SO SLIGHTLY BOTH DAYS KEEPING THE CWR
VALUES LOW. IT APPEARS THAT THE RIDGE TRIES TO REBOUND FOR THE
MIDDLE OF THE WEEK...WHICH WOULD REDUCE ANY TSTORMS CHANCE TO AROUND
10 PERCENT OR LESS. BY THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND...INDICATIONS ARE THE
RIDGE WILL BREAK DOWN AGAIN WHICH COULD LEAD TO A LITTLE MORE TSTORM
ACTIVITY. AS FAR RH VALUES...ANOTHER NIGHT OF POOR RECOVERY IN THE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS IS ON TAP. MONDAY WILL BE ANOTHER LOW RH
DAY...WITH SOME AREAS SLIGHTLY DRIER THAN THIS AFTN. FLUCTUATIONS
IN HUMIDITY WILL OCCUR ON A DAILY BASIS AFTER TOMORROW...DEPENDING
ON THE DOMINATING WX FACTOR OF THE DAY. TEMPS WILL BE THEIR WARMEST
TODAY AND AGAIN MONDAY...BEFORE A LITTLE BIT OF COLLING IS
EXPECTED.  KEYES
