AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
312 PM MST TUE FEB 15 2011

.SYNOPSIS...A MILD AND INCREASINGLY STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL
PERSIST THROUGH WEDNESDAY. A VIGOROUS COLD FRONT WILL CROSS UTAH
WEDNESDAY NIGHT...FOLLOWED BY A COLD UPPER TROUGH WHICH WILL SETTLE
OVER THE GREAT BASIN THROUGH THE COMING WEEKEND.

&&

.DISCUSSION...WATER VAPOR LOOP SHOWS WEAK RIDGING IN PLACE...IN
ADVANCE OF A TROUGH ALIGNED ALONG 135W. ACARS 400-250MB WIND
OBSERVATIONS PLACES A 90-110KT WESTERLY JET ACROSS CENTRAL
CALIFORNIA AND THE GREAT BASIN. MEANWHILE A CYCLONICALLY CURVED
90-135KT JET IS ENTERING THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. 12Z 700MB ANALYSIS
PLACES A RIDGE OVER THE REGION WITH A CYCLONE OFF THE COAST OF
BRITISH COLUMBIA. WARMING WAS OCCURRING LOCALLY WITH 0C AT KSLC WITH
+3C UPSTREAM AT KVEF. 12Z KSLC RAOB SHOWS 5C OF COOLING ABOVE 650MB
AND LITTLE THERMAL CHANGE IN THE LOWER LEVELS DURING THE PAST 24
HOURS. THE PROFILE WAS QUITE DRY WITH INCREASING SOUTHERLY FLOW
NOTED WITHIN THE LOWER LEVELS.

GOES SOUNDER/RUC AND GPS PRECIPITABLE WATER SENSORS INDICATE VALUES
ARE NEAR A TENTH OF AN INCH...RISING TO ABOUT A QUARTER INCH ACROSS
NORTHWEST UTAH.

AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT...EXPECTING ANOTHER WARM NIGHT WITH FORECAST
TEMPERATURES NUDGED ABOVE GUIDANCE PER COLD BIAS IN THESE
SITUATIONS. SOUTHERN JET STREAM IS THE FOCUS FOR HIGH LEVEL MOISTURE
CURRENTLY MOST PREDOMINATE ACROSS CENTRAL UTAH. EXPECT JET AXIS TO
SHIFT SOUTHEAST THIS EVENING YIELDING CLOUDIER CONDITIONS ACROSS
SOUTHERN UTAH AND MAINLY CLEAR CONDITIONS ACROSS THE NORTH.

THE FIRST THREAT ASSOCIATED WITH THE APPROACHING STORM SYSTEM WILL
BE AN INCREASE IN WINDS LATER TONIGHT AND ESPECIALLY TOMORROW. A
10MB PRESSURE GRADIENT IS FORECAST ACROSS THE STATE IN CONCERT WITH
STRONG PRESSURE FALLS OF 4-8MB TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND 700MB FLOW
INCREASING ABOVE 55KTS. WINDS WILL FIRST BECOME AN ISSUE EARLY
TOMORROW ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN. FOR THIS REASON...HAVE ELECTED
TO START THE NEWLY UPGRADED WINTER STORM WARNING AT 5 AM TOMORROW.
NO SNOW IMPACT EXPECTED UNTIL THE EVENING.

ACROSS THE WESTERN VALLEYS...NAM BUFKIT MOMENTUM TRANSFER SUPPORTS
GUSTS APPROACHING 60 MPH. HAVE UPGRADED THE HIGH WIND WATCH TO A
WARNING WHICH ALSO INCLUDES THE SALT LAKE AND TOOELE VALLEYS. PLEASE
REFER TO THE STATEMENT FOR DETAILS.

FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE REMAINING UTAH VALLEYS...SYNOPTIC SETUP IS
FAVORABLE FOR ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS. WHILE NOT WIDESPREAD ACROSS UTAH
COUNTY...CACHE VALLEY AND WASATCH MOUNTAIN VALLEYS...CONFIDENCE IS
FAIRLY HIGH THAT THE PATTERN IS CONDUCIVE TO AT LEAST MICROSCALE
AREAS OF WIND ADVISORY CONDITIONS.

MODEL GUIDANCE IS SLIGHTLY FASTER WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT
TOMORROW EVENING. TIMING HAS MOVED UP ENOUGH TO CAUSE CONCERN THAT
THERE MAY BE IMPACT NORTH OF SALT LAKE CITY DURING THE EVENING
COMMUTE. IF TIMING SPEEDS UP ANY FURTHER...THE SHARP COLD FRONT
COULD IMPACT THE EVENING COMMUTE ACROSS THE SALT LAKE VALLEY. WITH
IT STILL A THIRD PERIOD EVENT...WILL ALLOW MID SHIFT TO REEVALUATE
WITH 00Z GUIDANCE BEFORE ISSUING WINTER RELATED ADVISORIES FOR THE
VALLEYS.

FRONT REMAINS FRONTOGENETIC...WITH MODEL CROSS SECTIONS REVEALING
DEEP AND STRONG VERTICAL MOTION THROUGH THE DENDRITIC SNOW GROWTH
ZONE LOCATED AT THAT TIME IN THE MID LEVELS. WHILE PERHAPS BEGINNING
BRIEFLY AS RAIN...CHANGEOVER TO SNOW WILL BE QUICK AS THE COLD AIR
ARRIVES.

CURRENT THINKING IS 1-3" FOR NORTHERN VALLEYS AND 2-5" ON THE
BENCHES. AM A LITTLE NERVOUS ABOUT THE HIGHER END OF THAT RANGE DUE
TO THE VERY WARM SURFACE TEMPERATURES AND THE SPEED OF THE COLD
FRONT (AND HENCE FRONTAL BAND OF SNOW). DYNAMIC NATURE OF THIS
SYSTEM HOWEVER WILL SUPPORT HIGH ENOUGH SNOW RATES TO OVERCOMPENSATE
FOR WARM SURFACE...IT WILL JUST DEPEND HOW QUICKLY THIS CAN BE DONE.
IN ADDITION FOR THE MOUNTAINS...NORTHWEST FLOW BACKS TO WEST
SOUTHWEST THURSDAY...WHICH WILL END UP LIMITING SNOW TOTALS AS
FAVORABLE FLOW SHIFTS THROUGH THE EVENT.

WARMING MID LEVELS AND HEIGHT RISES WILL ALLOW SHOWERY ACTIVITY TO
DISSIPATE THURSDAY NIGHT.

MODELS ARE STILL HAVING ISSUES RESOLVING THE TIMING AND PATH OF THE
WEEKEND STORM SYSTEM. THEREFORE HAVE MADE LITTLE CHANGES TO THE
EXTENDED. AT THIS TIME...EXPECT MAJORITY OF THE IMPACT TO BE ACROSS
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN UTAH WITH HEAVY RAIN A POSSIBILITY ALONG THE
ARIZONA BORDER...AND HEAVY SNOW IN THE ADJACENT MOUNTAINS.
MEANWHILE...SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL RAMP UP IN THE HIGHER TERRAIN.

&&

.AVIATION...THE SLC TERMINAL WILL SEE VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE
EVENING WITH INCREASING HIGH CLOUDS OVERNIGHT. SOUTHERLY WINDS ARE
EXPECTED TO PERSIST INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

&&

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
