AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
600 AM MDT SUN MAR 29 2009

.SYNOPSIS...A COLD PACIFIC STORM SYSTEM WILL IMPACT THE REGION
THROUGH EARLY MONDAY. AN ACTIVE PATTERN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE
UPCOMING WEEK...WITH THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM EXPECTED AROUND MIDWEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...STORM CENTERED NEAR THE WA/OR/ID TRIPLE POINT THIS
MORNING CONTINUES TO DIVE SOUTHEAST TOWARDS UTAH. ASSOCIATED COLD
FRONT ALREADY NEAR THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF UTAH EARLY THIS
MORNING...AND WILL ARRIVE IN THE SALT LAKE VALLEY AROUND 15-16Z. THE
FRONT WILL THEN CONTINUE SURGING SOUTH INTO SOUTHERN UTAH THIS
AFTERNOON.

GUSTY SOUTH WINDS HAVE ALREADY DEVELOPED ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH AHEAD
OF THE FRONT...AND SHOULD INCREASE ACROSS THE SOUTH THIS AFTERNOON.
STRONG PRESSURE RISES BEHIND THE FRONT LOOK TO KEEP POSTFRONTAL
NORTHWEST WINDS FAIRLY STRONG FOR A FEW HOURS AS WELL. HAVE ISSUED
WIND ADVISORIES FOR MUCH OF THE WESTERN AND SOUTHERN VALLEYS OF
UTAH. WINDS SHOULD GRADUALLY DECREASE FROM NORTH TO SOUTH THIS
AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING.

STRONG ASCENT NEAR THE FRONT STILL EXPECTED TO RESULT IN A PERIOD OF
INTENSE PRECIPITATION. IN THE VALLEYS...HIGH SNOWFALL RATES SHOULD
RESULT IN ACCUMULATIONS ON AREA ROADWAYS DESPITE RELATIVELY WARM
ROAD SURFACE TEMPERATURES. MEANWHILE...THE MOUNTAINS SHOULD SEE
SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS RATHER QUICKLY NEAR AND BEHIND THE FRONT.
PRECIPITATION SHOULD TAPER OFF ACROSS MANY VALLEY AREAS BY THIS
EVENING...BUT A MOIST AND SOMEWHAT UNSTABLE NORTHWEST FLOW SHOULD
KEEP OROGRAPHIC PRECIPITATION GOING ACROSS THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL
UTAH MOUNTAINS OVERNIGHT. THERMAL PROFILE STILL LOOKS GOOD FOR
LAKE-EFFECT IMPACTING THE SALT LAKE VALLEY...BUT INCREASING
DIRECTIONAL SHEAR IN BUFR SOUNDINGS TONIGHT COULD HAMPER ITS
DEVELOPMENT.

HAVE UPGRADED THE WESTERN UINTA MOUNTAINS TO A WINTER STORM
WARNING...OTHERWISE THE SUITE OF WINTER WEATHER HEADLINES WERE LEFT
UNCHANGED. HOWEVER...THE BOTH GFS AND NAM SUGGEST THAT NORTHEAST
UTAH MAY BE IMPACTED BY WRAPAROUND MOISTURE THROUGH THE DAY
MONDAY...SO WARNINGS MAY EVENTUALLY NEED TO BE EXTENDED FOR THE
NORTHERN MOUNTAINS.

MODELS HAVE COME INTO INCREASINGLY BETTER AGREEMENT THROUGH LATE
WEEK. THE NEXT SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO SLIDE ACROSS NORTHEAST UTAH
TUESDAY NIGHT AND SPREAD PRECIPITATION INTO AT LEAST THE CENTRAL
MOUNTAINS. THIS SYSTEM SHOULD MOVE BY FAIRLY QUICKLY WITH HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDING IN BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. PROGRESSIVE PATTERN
CONTINUES WITH ANOTHER STORM TO IMPACT THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT
THROUGH FRIDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS WITH LOWERING CEILINGS AND GUSTY SOUTH
WINDS WILL PREVAIL DURING THE EARLY MORNING AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING
COLD FRONT. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PASS THROUGH THE TERMINAL
BETWEEN 15Z AND 17Z...THOUGH THERE IS A 20 PERCENT CHANCE IT WILL
ARRIVE EARLIER. THIS WILL RESULT IN THE STRONG WINDS SHIFTING TO THE
NORTHWEST ALONG WITH LIFR CONDITIONS IN HEAVY SNOW WITH SNOW
ACCUMULATING ON THE RUNWAYS. IFR CONDITIONS IN SNOW ARE THEN
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE INTO THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS.
