AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BOISE ID
922 AM MDT FRI JUL 6 2012

.DISCUSSION...DISTINCT WARMING TREND STILL ON TAP AS MASSIVE
CENTRAL CONUS RIDGE SLOWLY BUILDS WESTWARD. FORECAST AREA WILL BE
POSITIONED ON THE WESTERN FRINGE OF THIS SYSTEM THROUGH THE SHORT-
TERM...AND SOUTHERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL ALLOW MONSOONAL MOISTURE TO
ADVECT NORTHWARD INTO THE ORE/ID. PINPOINTING LOCATION AND
COVERAGE OF CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT /IN THIS PATTERN/ WILL BE THE
MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE THROUGH THIS WEEKEND. EXPECT VALLEY HIGHS
IN THE UPPER 90S TODAY...THEN BREAKING THE 100-DEGREE MARK
SATURDAY AFTERNOON.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR. EXPECT ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS OVER BAKER COUNTY
EARLY THIS MORNING MOVING NORTHEAST OUT OF OUR AREA BY ABOUT 16Z.
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL REDEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON OVER THE HIGHER
TERRAIN AND CONTINUE THROUGH TONIGHT...BECOMING MORE WIDESPREAD ON
SATURDAY THEN DECREASING IN COVERAGE SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY.
SURFACE WINDS WILL BE VARIABLE IN DIRECTION 5-15 KTS EXCEPT STRONGER
NEAR THUNDERSTORMS WITH GUSTS OVER 30 KTS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON.
WINDS ALOFT WILL BE SOUTHEAST AROUND 10 KTS AT 10K FEET MSL.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
SHORT TERM...CONTINUED WARMING AS HUGE MID-CONTINENT UPPER HIGH
EXPANDS WESTWARD.  MONSOON MOISTURE WILL AGAIN SURGE NWD ON THE WRN
PERIPHERY OF THE HIGH AND WITH INCREASED INSTABILITY DUE TO HIGHER
SURFACE TEMPS CONVECTION WILL BE A LITTLE MORE EXTENSIVE TODAY...
BUT STILL MAINLY OVER HIGHER TERRAIN.  THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP
AS FAR NW AS THE ELKHORNS IN BAKER COUNTY THIS AFTERNOON.  THE
MONSOON FLOW WILL DECREASE SATURDAY AS THE MAIN UPPER HIGH COMES
CLOSER AND SOUTHERLY WINDS ALOFT DECREASE.  SUBSIDENCE UNDER THE
APPROACHING UPPER HIGH WILL ALSO SLIGHTLY INHIBIT CONVECTION
SATURDAY...BUT WITH MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY ALREADY PRESENT WILL
CONTINUE TO FORECAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGHOUT OUR
CWA.  SATURDAY WILL ALSO BE HOTTER THAN TODAY...AND SUNDAY AND MONDAY
WILL BE HOTTER STILL.

LONG TERM...SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...HOT AND MOSTLY DRY
THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD.  VERY WARM UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL BE
CENTERED OVER THE INTERMOUNTAIN REGION AND REMAIN IN THIS POSITION
THROUGH AT LEAST WEDNESDAY.  SUBSIDENCE AND WARMING ALOFT OVER THE
AREA WILL INHIBIT CONVECTION...BUT WITH MONSOON MOISTURE TRAPPED
UNDER THE RIDGE...SURFACE HEATING AND WEAK SHORTWAVES MOVING THROUGH
THE FLOW CAN NOT RULE OUT SLIGHT CHANCE OF AFTERNOON AND EVENING
THUNDERSTORMS.  MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE NEAR RECORD HIGHS ON
SUNDAY...BUT CONFIDENCE IS LOW DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY OF CLOUD COVER
OVER THE AREA AS MONSOON MOISTURE DRIFTS NORTH OVER THE FORECAST
AREA.
