AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...ADD HEADLINES
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
845 PM MDT MON MAY 19 2008

.SYNOPSIS...STRONG HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL GIVE WAY TO A COLD FRONT
LATE TUESDAY. THE FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY. A COLD UPPER LOW WILL STALL OVER THE EASTERN GREAT BASIN
FROM WEDNESDAY TO MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND.

&&

.DISCUSSION...MORE RECORDS...HIGH WINDS AND SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION
ON TAP NEXT FEW DAYS.

FIRST THE RECENT UPPER RIDGE HAS LEFT A VERY WARM AIR MASS ACROSS
THE GREAT BASIN...THOUGH VERY SLIGHT COOLING OCCURRED IN THE NORTH
TODAY AFTER A WEAK WAVE PASSED THROUGH BUT THE SOUTHWEST SAW ITS
HOTTEST DAY WITH RECORDS (104 ST GEORGE). DEVELOPING AND INCREASING
SOUTHWEST FLOW ON TUESDAY WILL DRAW AIR AS WARM AS 16C AT 700 MB UP
TO SLC...THUS EASTERN AND NORTHERN AREAS WILL HAVE THEIR HOTTEST
DAY...WHILE VERY SLIGHT LOWERING OF MAXES FOR DIXIE. POTENTIAL FOR
UPPER 90S FOR SLC AS LONG AS AFTERNOON INSTABILITY CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT DOES NOT PRODUCE A THICK CLOUD SHIELD. DEEP UPPER TROUGH
IN THE NORTH PACIFIC AND BC COAST ON TRACK TO DROP ACROSS THE
REGION. THIS BRINGS A STRONG SURFACE COLD FRONT INTO NORTHERN UTAH
TUESDAY EVENING. WIND WILL BE AN ISSUE BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND
ESPECIALLY THE EVENING...WITH 25-35 KNOT SOUTHWEST FLOW INCREASING
TO 35 TO 45 KNOTS RIGHT AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND ABRUPTLY TURNING
NORTHWEST BEHIND THE BOUNDARY. SEVERE WIND GUSTS LOOK LIKELY
ESPECIALLY IN THE WESTERN AND SOUTHERN VALLEYS AND
DESERTS...STRONGEST POST FRONTAL IN THE NORTHWEST DESERTS AND UTAH
VALLEY SIMILAR TO THE LAST STRONG COLD FRONT. INSTABILITY NOW MOVING
ACROSS NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WILL BRING ACCAS CLOUDS INTO NORTHERN
UTAH ON TUESDAY WITH THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS ABLE TO REALIZE THE HIGH
BASED CAPE. LIGHTNING AND RAIN WILL BE MINIMAL BUT THE CONVECTION
WILL INCREASE THE CHANCES OF SEVERE WIND GUSTS. INSTABILITY IS ALSO
FORECAST FOR THE WASATCH PLATEAU AND THIS WOULD AFFECT EASTERN
VALLEYS AS WELL. SURFACE FRONTAL PASSAGE NEAR 9 PM TUESDAY FOR SLC.

WILL CONSIDER ISSUING A HIGH WIND WATCH FOR WESTERN AND SOUTHERN
AREAS. MOST AREAS WILL SEE WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA BUT NORMAL WINDY
SPOTS SHOULD GET SEVERE GUSTS...AND SOME POTENTIAL FOR A MORE
WIDESPREAD EVENT. A SOLID BAND OF RAIN AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM
COULD DROP ACROSS THE NORTHWEST DESERTS EARLY WEDNESDAY
MORNING...AND GET CARRIED INTO THE WASATCH FRONT. THIS DIGS INTO
SOUTHWEST UTAH DURING THE MORNING AND ALONG THE I-15 CORRIDOR...THEN
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN UTAH IN THE AFTERNOON. HIGH WIND POTENTIAL FOR
EASTERN UTAH ON WEDNESDAY. THE DEEP UPPER TROUGH SETS UP AS IT
STARTS TO CLOSE OFF OVER DIXIE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON BY 00Z. THIS WILL
DRAW SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT BACK ACROSS UTAH...WITH A MID LEVEL
CONVERGENCE ZONE STALLED OVER THE SPINE OF UTAH ON THURSDAY
WHICH SHOULD BRING SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION WITH SNOW LEVELS DOWN
TO 7000 FEET (MAYBE DOWN TO 6000 FEET IN THE MORNING FOR FAR WESTERN
UTAH)...AND ACCUMULATIONS ABOVE 8000 FEET FOR WESTERN UTAH. RATHER
GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT ON THE MODELS WITH SLIGHTLY FURTHER EAST
TREND FOR THURSDAY. THIS UPPER LOW HOLDS INTO THURSDAY AND THEN THE
SYSTEM IS PROGGED TO REFORM OVER CENTRAL OR WESTERN NEVADA PER MODEL
CONSENSUS AS ADDITIONAL ENERGY FROM THE NORTH CARVE INTO THE MEAN
UPPER LONG WAVE TROUGH. THIS SYSTEM THEN SENDS VORT LOBES INTO UTAH
WITHIN MOIST UNSTABLE SOUTHERLY FLOW AND THE CENTER OF IT DRIFTS
ACROSS THE STATE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...WHILE THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS
STILL PROGGED TO REMAIN ACROSS NEVADA PRODUCING AN UNSTABLE AND
MOIST AIR MASS INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK EVEN THOUGH THE SYSTEM WARMS.
RATHER STRONG CAPE FORECAST BY THE GFS...WITH 300 TO 700 J/KG FROM
FRIDAY INTO SUNDAY.

POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINERS...SOME HAIL AND HYDRO ISSUES DUE TO LONG
DURATION OF THE UPPER TROUGH AND UNSTABLE MOIST COOL AIR MASS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...RAPID SNOW MELT CONTINUES SINCE THIS WEEKEND AND HAS
INCREASED. HOW MUCH...ABOUT 2 INCHES OF WATER LOST FROM THE UPPER
COTTONWOODS IN THE WASATCH PAST 24 HOURS AND NEAR 6 INCHES SINCE
FRIDAY AT 9500 FEET. ON THE EAST SIDE SENSORS SHOW AMOUNTS CLOSER TO
4 INCHES AT 9000 FEET IN PARK CITY. RIVERS IN NORTHEAST UT ARE
NEARING BANK FULL AND LITTLE COTTONWOOD UP TO 350 CFS. THIS HEAT
WAVE WILL PERSIST INTO TUESDAY BEFORE THE COLD FRONT SHUTS OFF THE
SNOW MELT WEDNESDAY SO ADDITIONAL RISES WILL OCCUR WITH HOT AND
WINDY DAY. THE WILD CARD REMAINS HOW MUCH PRECIP FALLS AS HIGH
ELEVATION RAIN WEDNESDAY MORNING BEFORE IT GETS COLD ENOUGH TO LOWER
THE SNOW LEVEL. AT THIS TIME...IT APPEARS THERE MAY BE SEVERAL HOURS
OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN UP TO ABOUT 8000 FT WEDNESDAY MORNING. IN
ADDITION...LOWER ELEVATION RAINS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING AND
INTO THURSDAY AND THIS RUNOFF WILL ADD TO THE LOW ELEVATION FLOWS
ALREADY FED FROM SIGNIFICANT SNOW MELT RUNOFF. RIVER LEVELS SHOULD
START TO FALL BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON ONCE THIS RUNOFF SLOWS
GREATLY...BUT CONVECTION AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN COULD AFFECT SMALLER
LOWER ELEVATION CREEKS AND STREAMS.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL AT THE SLC TERMINAL THIS
EVENING UNDER MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE REGION TODAY WILL SHIFT
EAST TONIGHT...ALLOWING SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE
AREA ON TUESDAY AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING STORM SYSTEM. THIS COMBINED
WITH A VERY DRY AIRMASS ACROSS SOUTHERN UTAH WILL RESULT IN CRITICAL
FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH
CENTRAL UTAH WERE FUELS ARE DRY. RED FLAG WARNING FOR TUESDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS ZONES 439 AND 440 WHERE FUELS ARE DRY.
THERE IS POTENTIAL THAT WINDS MAY STAY UP...AND HUMIDITIES
REMAIN LOW LATE INTO THE NIGHT TUESDAY.

THE COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE STORM SYSTEM WILL PUSH ACROSS
NORTHERN UTAH TUESDAY NIGHT AND INTO SOUTHERN UTAH ON WEDNESDAY.
WINDS WILL REMAIN STRONG ACROSS THE AREA WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON BEHIND
THE FRONT. CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS FAR
SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL UTAH THROUGH THE EARLY PART OF
THE DAY WEDNESDAY...BUT HUMIDITIES ARE EXPECTED TO RECOVER ABOVE
CRITICAL LEVELS DURING THE AFTERNOON. A COOLER AND MOIST AIRMASS
WILL THEN LINGER OVER THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS THE STORM
SYSTEM PARKS ITSELF OVER THE GREAT BASIN FOR WETTING PRECIP.

&&

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

WILL BRING STRONG GUSTY WINDS TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
WEDNESDAY...THEN SHARP COOLING ALONG WITH WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION
ON WEDNESDAY BEHIND THE FRONT...ESPECIALLY OVER WESTERN AND
NORTHERN UTAH. LOWERING SNOW LEVELS WILL HALT THE SNOW MELT
WEDNESDAY BUT RIVERS WILL NOT RECEDE UNTIL SOMETIME THURSDAY.
