AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
325 PM MDT SAT JUN 20 2009

.SYNOPSIS...THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE WESTERN GREAT BASIN WILL
MOVE EAST OVER UTAH TODAY. COOL AND WET WEATHER WILL RESULT FROM THE
TROUGH PASSAGE ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH...WITH CONTINUED MILD BUT UNSETTLED
WEATHER ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN UTAH. THE TROUGH WILL EXIT
THE AREA LATER TONIGHT...FOLLOWED BY BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT
NEXT WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...REGIONAL WATER VAPOR DEPICTS A POTENT TROUGH MOVING
THROUGH THE GREAT BASIN...WITH LONG IR LOOP INDICATING SIGNIFICANT
VERTICAL MOTION AHEAD OF THE PRIMARY VORT LOBE OVER SOUTHCENTRAL
NEVADA. A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS HAS DEVELOPED AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE
OVER WEST CENTRAL UTAH AND FAR EASTERN NEVADA...BUT EFFECTIVE
SHEAR VALUES OF 20 KNOTS PER LATEST SPC ANALYSIS HAS INHIBITED
STRENGTH THUS FAR. A SURFACE FRONT RACED ACROSS THE NORTHERN FORECAST
AREA EARLIER THIS AM AND IS CURRENTLY DRAPED ON A LINE FROM PROVO
TO JUST SOUTH OF DELTA. BEHIND THE FRONT WIDESPREAD RAIN
SHOWERS...LOCALLY HEAVY ACROSS THE WESTERN DESERTS...HAVE IMPACTED
NORTHERN UTAH...BUT SIGNIFICANT CLOUD COVER HAS BEEN THE LIMITING
FACTOR IN MORE ORGANIZED STORM DEVELOPMENT.

20Z SPC EFFECTIVE SHEAR ANALYSIS INDICATES SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER VALUES
NORTH OF THE CURRENT THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY...WITH A SWATH OF 30
TO 50 KNOTS EXTENDING ON A LINE FROM GREAT BASIN NATIONAL PARK
NORTHEAST TO OGDEN. SKIES ARE RAPIDLY CLEARING FROM DUGWAY SOUTH
THROUGH THIS ZONE...AND ANTICIPATE RAPID WARMING AND STEEPENING
LAPSE RATES TO OCCUR OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. SHORT RANGE
MODELS CONTINUE TO LIFT THE VORT LOBE NORTHEAST THIS
AFTERNOON...AND EXPECT AT LEAST ISOLATED SEVERE STORM DEVELOPMENT
TO OCCUR ACROSS THE NORTHWESTERN THIRD OF THE STATE...INCLUDING
THE WASATCH FRONT. PRIMARY THREATS ARE STILL ANTICIPATED TO BE
MARGINAL SEVERE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS...AND LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL. THE SOUTHERN ZONES WILL REMAIN IN A LESS DYNAMICALLY
FAVORED ZONE...AND EXPECT PRIMARILY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS
TO FOCUS ALONG THE COLD FRONT AND OVER HIGHER TERRAIN INTO THIS
EVENING AND POSSIBLY THROUGH THE NIGHT OVER FAVORED CENTRAL
MOUNTAIN AREAS.

THE TROUGH WILL LIFT RAPIDLY NORTHEAST THIS EVENING WITH TRAILING
SUBSIDENCE EXPECTED TO SQUELCH MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE
SHOWER/STORM THREAT BY MIDNIGHT OVER THE NORTH. FOCUS THEN
WILL SHIFT TO THE NEXT COLD CORE LOW NOW MAKING LANDFALL ALONG THE
COAST OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO LIFT THE COLD
POOL NORTHEAST THROUGH IDAHO DURING THE DAY TOMORROW...BUT A
SHALLOW SURGE OF COLD AIR IS EXPECTED TO ONCE AGAIN SWEEP THROUGH
THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. WITH AID OF A 90 KNOT
JET CORE ALOFT ACROSS THE NORTH...SCATTERED STORM DEVELOPMENT
SHOULD ONCE AGAIN OCCUR LATE MORNING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON ALONG
THE UTAH/IDAHO LINE. THIS SHOULD BE THE LAST THREAT OF
SIGNIFICANT WEATHER THROUGH TUESDAY AT LEAST AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS...BUT GFS/EC CONTINUE TO YIELD TRAJECTORIES FAVORABLE FOR A
MONSOONAL SURGE ACROSS MAINLY SOUTHERN AND EASTERN UTAH BY
MIDWEEK OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE SLC TERMINAL THROUGH
THE AFTERNOON HOURS...WITH PERIODS OF CEILINGS BELOW 7000FT AGL
EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH AT LEAST 01Z TO 03Z. THERE IS A 60
PERCENT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS IMPACTING THE TERMINAL BETWEEN 22Z
AND 01Z...WITH GUSTY WINDS AND BRIEF HEAVY RAIN BEING THE MOST
LIKELY IMPACTS...AND HAIL ALSO POSSIBLE. THE HEAVIER RAIN SHOWERS
WILL LIKELY BRING BRIEF MVFR CONDITIONS.

&&

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
UT...NONE.
WY...NONE.
