AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RIVERTON WY
233 PM MDT THU JUL 2 2009

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY
THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY THAT WAS OCCURRING THIS MORNING OVER
YELLOWSTONE PARK FROM THE EXITING SHORTWAVE HAS MOVED INTO CENTRAL
AND NORTHEAST WYOMING WHERE CAPES HAVE INCREASED TO OVER 1000J/KJ
IN SOME AREAS. THIS INCLUDES JOHNSON COUNTY WHERE A WATCH HAS
ALREADY BEEN ISSUED THROUGH 7 PM. THE SHORTWAVE OVER EASTERN
NEVADA WILL BE PRODUCING AN ALL NIGHTER FOR CONVECTION BASED ON
THE TIMING AS IT TRACKS NORTHEAST ACROSS WYOMING. THIS SHORTWAVE
WILL TRACK THROUGH A FIELD OF CAPES WELL OVER 1000J/KG OVER
JOHNSON COUNTY THROUGH THIS EVENING WITH STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS...POTENTIALLY SEVERE...LASTING INTO THE EARLY
EVENING HOURS FOR A TWO PART SHOW THERE WITH ADDITIONAL SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS LINGERING PAST MIDNIGHT. FAIRLY STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS STORMS HAVE ALREADY BEGUN TO ERUPT ACROSS HOT
SPRINGS...NORTHERN NATRONA AND JOHNSON COUNTIES THIS FAR. THIS
AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO FORM AN MC TO OUR
NORTHEAST WHICH WILL LIKELY PUSH A MOIST SURFACE BOUNDARY SOUTH
AND THEN WEST ACROSS AREAS EAST OF THE BIG HORN MOUNTAINS AND THEN
WEST OVER THE CASPER ARCH TOWARD THE WIND RIVER BASIN AFTER
MIDNIGHT. THE EARLIER RUN OF THE MET MOS GUIDANCE INDICATED 60
POPS FOR BOTH RIVERTON AND CASPER FOR FRIDAY MORNING BUT THE
LATEST 12Z RUN HAS MUCH LOWER POPS. HOWEVER WILL GO AHEAD AND
RAISE POPS FOR THE AFOREMENTIONED AREAS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE
NORTHEASTERLY SURGE...ALBEIT RELATIVELY LIGHT AMOUNTS. NAM20 WAS
INDICATING THREE QUARTERS OF AN INCH OF PRECIP FOR THE BIG HORN
MOUNTAINS THROUGH TONIGHT. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY
RAINERS ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA THROUGH THIS EVENING AS MUCH OF THE
AREA WILL HAVE THREE QUARTERS OF AN INCH TO OVER ONE INCH OF PWAT.

THE NEXT SHORTWAVE NOW MAKING LANDFALL ONTO THE PACIFIC COAST WILL
ARRIVE FRIDAY FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS. MINUS 4
LIFTED INDICES WILL BE COMMONPLACE SATURDAY ACROSS MANY PORTIONS OF
THE CWA. LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE ANOTHER LATE SHOW FRIDAY EVENING.
NAM20 QPF WAS INDICATING OVER AN INCH OF PRECIP FOR PORTIONS OF
NORTHWEST WY FRIDAY NIGHT AFTER A LOT OF THE CONVECTION STRATIFORMS
OUT. ADDED LIFT FROM RIGHT REAR QUAD OF THE 65 KNOT JET MAX WILL AID
IN PRECIP DEVELOPMENT

THEN ON SATURDAY A NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE WILL DELIVER ANOTHER
ROUND OF MOSTLY AFTERNOON AND EVENING CONVECTION.

.LONG TERM...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY
TROUGH NEAR 150W TO APPROACH NW COAST SUNDAY WITH UPPER RIDGE
AXIS WEST OF THE DIVIDE AND WNW FLOW OVER WYOMING. BOTH MODELS
BRING UPPER LOW INTO NORTHWEST MONDAY WITH LOW FRAGMENTING AND
SHEARING OUT INTO STRONG RIDGE OVER CENTRAL PLAINS THROUGH NEXT
WEEK. THE ECMWF REMAINS THE SLOWER AND WEAKER THAN THE
GFS...KEEPING HIGHER H5 HEIGHTS/WARMER TEMPERATURES OVER WYOMING
THROUGH THE PERIOD. MODELS OVERALL TRENDING SLOWER...WEAKER AND
WARMER. THIS TREND AND ECMWF PREFERRED...ESPECIALLY IN THE HEART
OF SUMMER.

MONSOONAL PLUME TO REMAIN OVER THE AREA SUNDAY WITH SLIGHTLY DRIER
MID-LEVELS OVER AREA.  LIGHT UPSLOPE FLOW REMAINS EAST OF THE DIVIDE
ALONG WITH HIGHER PWATS.  FORECAST KEEPS SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND
EVENING THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE CENTRAL AND NORTH WITH LOWER POPS
ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST.

BACKING OF FLOW MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY WILL BRING DRIER AND MUCH
WARMER AIRMASS OVER AREA WITH ECMWF BRINGING IN H7 TEMPERATURES
15C-18C OVER AREA WHILE GFS IS A FEW DEGREES COOLER.  MOISTURE AND
INSTABILITY REMAIN OVER THE NORTH AND EAST MONDAY WITH DRIER SW FLOW
PUSHING INTO THE SW HALF OF THE AREA.  THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
EXPECTED TO BE MORE ISOLATED MONDAY AND THEN MAINLY CONFINED TO THE
FAR NORTH AND EAST TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY WITH DRY AND HOT
SOUTHWEST FLOW OVER MOST OF THE AREA...HIGH TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO
SOAR INTO THE UPPER 80S AND 90S ACROSS THE CENTRAL BASINS AND EAST
WITH THE LOWER BIG HORN BASIN POSSIBLY SEEING THE FIRST 100F
READINGS OF THE SUMMER ON TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY PER ECMWF.

&&

.AVIATION...
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE EAST OF THE DIVIDE THIS EVENING
WITH MVFR CONDITIONS AND GUSTY WINDS IN THUNDERSTORMS AND VFR
CONDITIONS AND LIGHT WINDS...GENERALLY BELOW 10 KT...ACROSS THE REST
OF CENTRAL WYOMING AND WESTERN WYOMING. A MOIST ATMOSPHERE AND
STRONG DAYTIME HEATING WILL GENERATE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS FRIDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA WITH SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS IN NATRONA AND JOHNSON COUNTIES. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
WILL MOVE ACROSS WYOMING FRIDAY...AND LIGHT WINDS WILL PREVAIL.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA THIS
EVENING WITH RAIN SHOWER ACTIVITY PERSISTING AFTER MIDNIGHT OVER
MANY AREAS. SOME STORMS WILL LIKELY PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL. MAINLY LATE DAY THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THE RULE THROUGH
