AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREAT FALLS MT
500 PM MST SAT FEB 26 2011

UPDATED AVIATION SECTION

.DISCUSSION...
TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...STRONG WINDS ALOFT WILL GRADUALLY DECREASE
TONIGHT AS THE UPPER LEVEL JET SAGS SOUTHWARD AND SHORTWAVE ENERGY
EMBEDDED WITHIN WNW FLOW ALOFT MOVES OFF TO THE EAST. AT THE
SURFACE...THE LEE-SIDE LOW PRESSURE TROUGH IS BEGINNING TO FILL AND
MOVE OFF TO THE EAST ALONG WITH THE UPPER LEVEL ENERGY...AND THIS
WILL ALLOW WINDS TO GRADUALLY DECREASE THIS EVENING. STILL EXPECT
SEVERAL MORE HRS OF HIGH WINDS AND ASSOCIATED BLIZZARD CONDITIONS
ALONG THE ROCKY MTN FRONT AND ADJACENT PLAINS AS FAR EAST AS CUT
BANK...WITH GUSTY SW WINDS AND AREAS OF BLOWING SNOW ALSO CONTINUING
FARTHER EAST ON THE PLAINS BEFORE MORE SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT
AND DECREASES IN WIND SPEEDS OCCUR LATER THIS EVENING. CANNOT
RULE OUT A FEW SNOW SHOWERS/FLURRIES...ESPECIALLY OVER THE HIGHER
TERRAIN AND OUT OVER EASTERN ZONES...HOWEVER MOISTURE WILL BE VERY
LIMITED. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE CLOSE TO OR JUST UNDER SEASONAL
AVERAGES ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA...HOWEVER COLDER AIR TRAPPED IN
THE HELENA AND GALLATIN VALLEYS WILL LIKELY SUPPORT OVERNIGHT
TEMPERATURES IN THE SINGLE DIGITS UNLESS SOME LATE ARRIVING WINDS
CAN MIX DOWN INTO THOSE AREAS THIS EVENING. AN INCREASINGLY MOIST
WESTERLY FLOW FROM THE PACIFIC WILL KEEP SKIES MOSTLY CLOUDY
SUNDAY AND MONDAY WITH PRECIPITATION INCREASING ALONG PORTIONS OF
THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE NORTH OF ROGERS PASS THROUGH THE PERIOD.
WHILE INITIALLY LIGHT ON SUNDAY...SNOW WILL INCREASE OVER THESE
AREAS SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY WITH SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS
POSSIBLE OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN BY LATE MONDAY. MUCH OF THE AREA
EAST OF THE ROCKIES WILL SEE GENERALLY DRY CONDITIONS THROUGH AT
LEAST MONDAY MORNING. TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO CLIMB ON SUNDAY
WITH MANY LOWER ELEVATION LOCATIONS SEEING HIGHS AROUND FREEZING
ON SUNDAY. AN ARCTIC FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL PUSH BACK SOUTH TO NEAR
THE CANADIAN BORDER BY MONDAY MORNING IN RESPONSE TO LOW PRESSURE
DEVELOPING OVER THE PACIFIC NW WITH THE FRONT EXPECTED TO PUSH
SOUTHWARD INTO NORTH CENTRAL MT MONDAY AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURES
WILL FINALLY CLIMB TO NEAR SEASONAL AVERAGES ON MONDAY FOR MOST
AREAS AHEAD OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. HOENISCH

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...MODELS CONTINUE TO BE IN
FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH MOST OF THIS PERIOD. AN UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN UNITED STATES WITH AN UPPER
LEVEL LOW PRESSURE TROUGH OFF THE BRITISH COLUMBIA COAST WILL KEEP A
MOIST ANTICYCLONIC WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT OVER THE TFX CWA THROUGH THE
PERIOD. A SERIES OF SHORTWAVE TROUGHS WILL ALSO BE EJECTED FROM THE
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND MOVE OVER THE AREA THROUGH THE PERIOD. THIS
PATTERN WILL GENERALLY KEEP SNOW LIKELY IN THE MOUNTAINS THROUGH THE
PERIOD WITH A CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION OVER THE PLAINS. THE FIRST
SHORTWAVE WILL BE EXITING THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. IN THE
WAKE OF THIS SHORTWAVE...A CANADIAN COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH OVER
THE PLAINS OF NORTH CENTRAL AND CENTRAL MONTANA...SHIFTING WINDS
MORE NORTHERLY AND USHERING ANOTHER ROUND OF COLD AIR. THE RESULTING
OVERRUNNING PATTERN WILL BRING A GOOD CHANCE OF SNOW TO THE
PLAINS...AS HIGH TEMPERATURES ON TUESDAY FALL ABOUT 20 DEGREES FROM
THOSE ON MONDAY. HOWEVER...THE COLD AIR WILL LIKELY REMAIN OUT OF
THE SOUTHWEST MONTANA VALLEYS...AS TEMPERATURES THERE REMAIN NEAR
NORMAL WITH LESS OF A CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION. AS THE NEXT
SHORTWAVE APPROACHES THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...THE
MOIST FLOW ALOFT WILL SHIFT MORE SOUTHWESTERLY. THE COLD FRONT WILL
ALSO RETREAT TO THE NORTHEAST...ALLOWING TEMPERATURES TO AT LEAST
APPROACH NORMAL LEVELS OVER THE PLAINS. HOWEVER...WITH THE PASSAGE
OF THIS SHORTWAVE THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...THE COLD FRONT WILL
SAG SOUTH ONCE AGAIN AND TEMPERATURES OVER THE PLAINS WILL COOL
SIGNIFICANTLY. ANOTHER SHORTWAVE WILL APPROACH THE AREA BEGINNING
FRIDAY NIGHT...WHICH WILL SET THE AFOREMENTIONED PATTERN OF EVENTS
IN MOTION AGAIN.  COULSTON

&&

.AVIATION...
UPDATED 0000Z.
EXPECT GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS. SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS WILL
CONTINUE TO AFFECT KHVR THROUGH KLWT THIS EVENING WITH AT LEAST
LOCAL MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES. OVER THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN FRONT
SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS TONIGHT WILL BECOME WIDESPREAD BY SUNDAY NOON
WITH AREAS OF MOUNTAIN OBSCUREMENT. OVER THE PLAINS STRONG SOUTHWEST
WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO DIMINISH WITH MVFR/IFR VISIBILITIES IN
BLOWING SNOW AT KCTB IMPROVING THIS EVENING TO GENERALLY VFR.

.HYDROLOGY...

FOR THE JEFFERSON RIVER...
ICE JAM FLOODING ON THE JEFFERSON RIVER CONTINUES NEAR SILVER
STAR IN NORTHWEST MADISON COUNTY. FLOODING CONTINUES TO AFFECT THE
JEFFERSON ACRES REGION...THUS THE FLOOD WARNING WILL CONTINUE
UNTIL THE FLOOD WATERS HAVE RECEDED.

ADDITIONALLY...A SECOND ICE JAM HAS DEVELOPED UPSTREAM OF THE
FIRST ICE JAM. SHOULD THIS NEW ICE JAM BREAK...IT COULD POSSIBLY
CAUSE THE ORIGINAL ICE JAM TO BREAK AS WELL...CREATING A FLASH
FLOODING POTENTIAL DOWNSTREAM. THUS A FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN
ISSUED FOR A PORTION OF THE JEFFERSON RIVER FROM ABOUT 5 MILES
SOUTH OF SILVER STAR...TO WATERLOO. THE WATCH WILL REMAIN IN
PLACE UNTIL THE THREAT FOR FLASH FLOODING HAS CEASED.

FOR THE MISSOURI RIVER...
A NEW ICE JAM HAS DEVELOPED JUST NORTH OF FORT BENTON ON THE
MISSOURI RIVER. MINOR FLOODING HAS BEEN REPORTED ON THE NORTH SIDE
OF FORT BENTON IN LOW LYING AREAS...THUS A FLOOD WARNING HAS BEEN
ISSUED. THE SITUATION WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED AS ADDITIONAL
FLOOD HIGHLIGHTS MAY BE REQUIRED SHOULD THE ICE JAM CONTINUE TO
GROW OVER THE NEXT DAY OR SO.
