AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RIVERTON WY
332 PM MDT SUN MAY 2 2010

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT

THE FLOW ALOFT WILL SHIFT FROM NORTHWEST TO WEST TONIGHT THROUGH
MONDAY. SCATTERED RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS...BECOMING MAINLY SNOW SHOWERS
WILL BE OVER WESTERN AND CENTRAL WYOMING THIS EVENING...THEN
DECREASE THROUGH EARLY MORNING. TEMPERATURES WILL BE COOL TONIGHT.
STRONG WEST WINDS ALOFT WILL MOVE OVER NORTHERN WYOMING MONDAY
MORNING WITH POSSIBLE HIGH WINDS DEVELOPING AROUND NOON IN THE
ABSAROKA MOUNTAINS AND THE CODY FOOTHILLS...ESPECIALLY IN THE
CLARK AREA. THROUGH THE DAY MONDAY THE STRONG WINDS ALOFT WILL
SPREAD SOUTH...WITH HIGH WINDS BECOMING POSSIBLE BY LATE AFTERNOON
ALONG THE EAST SLOPES OF THE WIND RIVER MOUNTAINS...THE LANDER
FOOT HILLS...AND ACROSS THE GREEN AND RATTLESNAKE MOUNTAINS. AS
THE STRONG WINDS ALOFT MOVE SOUTH...THE WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO
DECREASE IN THE NORTH...WHILE HIGH WINDS WILL BECOME POSSIBLE OVER
NATRONA COUNTY AND EASTERN SWEETWATER COUNTY. LATE TUESDAY
AFTERNOON A COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO SPREAD SOUTH WITH DECREASING
WINDS. HIGH WIND WATCHES HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR THESE AREAS. 700 MB
FLOW INCREASES TO 50 TO 70 KTS. VERTICALLY PROPAGATING MOUNTAIN
WAVE FORMATION IS EXPECTED IN THE LEE OF THE ABSAROKA MOUNTAINS
AND THE WIND RIVER MOUNTAINS AND TO A LESSER EXTENT IN THE LEE OF
THE BIGHORN MOUNTAINS. HOW FAR INTO THE BASINS AND PLAINS THE
STRONG WINDS WILL SPREAD IS THE BIG QUESTION. THE MOST FAVORABLE
AREA IS AROUND CLARK AND IN THE NORTH AND SOUTH FORKS OF THE
SHOSHONE RIVER WEST AND SOUTHWEST OF CODY. THE LANDER FOOTHILLS ARE
A BIGGER QUESTION AND THE HIGH WIND MAY HIT THE RED CANYON AND
SINKS CANYON AND STAY OUT OF LANDER BUT IT IS TOO CLOSE TO CALL AT
THIS TIME SO ISSUED THE WATCH THERE. THEN STRONG WINDS MIXING DOWN
INTO THE WIND CORRIDOR SHOULD PRODUCE REGIONAL GAP FLOW ACROSS
SOUTHERN FREMONT...NORTHERN AND EASTERN SWEETWATER AND NATRONA
COUNTIES. AT THIS TIME DO EXPECT A FAIR MOUNTAIN WAVE ON THE EAST
SLOPES OF THE BIGHORN MOUNTAINS BUT DO NOT EXPECT THE WINDS TO
SURFACE ON THE PLAIN IN JOHNSON COUNTY. THIS IS AN AREA OF CONCERN.
THE WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BE TO WESTERLY FOR HIGH WIND AT DUBOIS
THROUGH RIVERTON OUT IN THE WIND RIVER BASIN...BUT THIS IS ALSO AN
AREA WHERE STRONG WINDS COULD DEVELOP. WITH THE STRONG
DOWNSLOPE...TEMPERATURES SHOULD WARM SIGNIFICANTLY WITH LOWER TO
MID 60S IN THE EAST WITH MAINLY 50S TO UPPER 40S IN THE WESTERN
VALLEYS. A COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE NORTH ON
TUESDAY AND AS IT MOVES SOUTH AND THE WIND SHIFTS...SPEEDS ARE
EXPECTED TO DROP FROM NORTH TO SOUTH ENDING THE HIGH WIND THREAT.
WEST OF THE DIVIDE PRECIPITATION WILL BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD AS
MOISTURE FROM THE PACIFIC ADVECTS EAST IN THE STRONG WESTERLY
FLOW. BASED THE AREAS OF STRONGEST WINDS ON THE LOCAL WRF NMM AND
THE ARW4 SURFACE WINDS FROM NCEP. THE LOCAL WRF NMM PRODUCES VERY
DEEP WAVES OF OF THE ABSAROKA AND WIND RIVER MOUNTAINS.

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY
AN UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN SETTING UP FOR WED AFTERNOON THROUGH
THURSDAY NIGHT PER THE GFS/ECMWF MODELS. AN UPPER LEVEL STORM
SYSTEM MOVES INTO IDAHO BY WED NIGHT AND THEN MAKES ITS WAY EAST
INTO WY THURSDAY AND THURS NIGHT. THE GFS IS SLOWER AND A BIT MORE
SOUTH THAN THE ECMWF MODEL WHICH IS FASTER AND MORE NORTH WITH THE
TRACK. IF THE STORM TAKES A TRACK ALONG SOUTHERN WY THEN PRECIP IS
MORE LIKELY IN CENTRAL AND NORTHERN WY. IF THE TRACK IS ACROSS
CENTRAL WY PER THE ECMWF THEN NORTHERN WY WOULD SEE THE BEST
CHANCE OF PRECIP. THE CANADIAN MODEL IS CLOSER TO THE ECMWF TRACK
00Z THU THROUGH 12Z FRI. WILL MAKE ONLY MINOR CHANGES TO THE
FORECAST AS SEE HOW THE MODELS LOOK TONIGHT. FRIDAY COULD STILL
SEE SCATTERED PRECIP ACROSS THE AREA IN A MOIST NW FLOW ALOFT. GFS
AND ECMWF QUITE DIFFERENT NEXT SAT AND SUN. GFS BRINGS AN UPPER
LOW TO NEAR THE PACIFIC NW BY 12Z SUNDAY WHILE THE ECMWF HAS A
WEAK TROUGH APPROACHING THAT AREA. WILL SIDE WITH THE ECMWF THAT
FAR OUT. OTHERWISE SAT AND SUN LOOK TO BE A BIT DRIER OVER THE
AREA WITH SCATTERED RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS OVER THE MOUNTAINS WITH
ISOLATED ACTIVITY OVER THE LOWER ELEVATIONS. TEMPS LOOK TO BE
BELOW NORMAL WED THROUGH FRI THEN CLOSER TO SEASONAL READINGS NEXT
SAT AND SUN.
