AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHEYENNE WY
832 PM MDT THU AUG 30 2012

.UPDATE...
REMOVED THUNDERSTORMS AROUND THE CHEYENNE AREA AND ADDED AREAS OF
SMOKE. SMOKE FROM THE WILD FIRES IN THE NORTHERN NEBRASKA
PANHANDLE HAS REACHED AS FAR EAST AS THE LARAMIE RANGE DUE TO
EAST TO NORTHEAST LOW LEVEL FLOW. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO SWITCH TO
THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST AFTER MIDNIGHT AS A WARM FRONT SHIFTS
NORTH. THIS WILL PUSH THE PLUME OF SMOKE NORTHWARD ALLOWING MUCH
OF THE AREA TO CLEAR OUT TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY. ADDED ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS TO THE NORTHERN NEBRASKA PANHANDLE THIS EVENING AS
RADAR INDICATING A LINE RUNNING FROM AROUND TORRINGTON...EAST OVER
SOUTHERN SIOUX COUNTY AND BOX BUTTE COUNTY. A FEW LIGHTNING STRIKES
HAVE BEEN INDICATED BY THE LIGHTNING DETECTION NETWORK WITHIN THIS
BAND. THIS BAND OF CONVECTION WILL MOVE NORTH OF THE AREA BY LATE
THIS EVENING.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 632 PM MDT THU AUG 30 2012/

UPDATE...
CANCELLED THE RED FLAG WARNING FOR THE SOUTHERN NEBRASKA PANHANDLE
WHICH WAS IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM THIS EVENING. THE FIRE WEATHER
WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR TOMORROW OVER THE HIGH PLAINS OF
SOUTHEAST WYOMING AND THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE. MAY NEED TO UPGRADE
THE WATCH TO THE WARNING THIS EVENING SHOULD THE 00Z MODEL RUNS
STILL SUGGEST RED FLAG CONDITIONS.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE STARTING TO DECREASE IN INTENSITY
THIS EVENING. THIS TREND SHOULD CONTINUE THE NEXT FEW HOURS AS THE
ATMOSPHERE STABILIZES.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 546 PM MDT THU AUG 30 2012/

AVIATION...00Z TAF ISSUANCE. PRIMARY CONCERNS THIS EVENING WILL
BE SMOKE REDUCING VIS BELOW 3 MILES ACROSS WESTERN NEBRASKA AND
FAR EASTERN WYOMING...AND ISOLATED THUNDER WITH GUSTY WINDS WEST
OF THE LARAMIE RANGE MAIN NEAR KLAR AND KRWL. THUNDER SHOWER
ACTIVITY WILL DISSIPATE IN THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO...BUT THE SMOKE
AND REDUCED VISIBILITIES WILL LINGER THROUGH MOST OF THE NIGHT AT
KBFF...KCDR...KSNY. SMOKE WILL GRADUALLY PUSH NORTH LATER TONIGHT
AND INTO FRIDAY MORNING AS SURFACE WINDS SHIFT INTO THE SOUTH.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 431 PM MDT THU AUG 30 2012/

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...THE COLD FRONT
PUSHED SOUTH A LITTLE FURTHER SOUTH ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA LAST
NIGHT...AND IS CURRENTLY STALLED IN NORTHEAST COLORADO. BREEZY
NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS BEHIND THE FRONT BROUGHT AREAS OF SMOKE
FROM THE WILDLAND FIRES IN THE NORTHERN NEBRASKA PANHANDLE TO MUCH
OF THE PANHANDLE AND PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST WYOMING. THIS RESULTED
IN MUCH COOLER TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE REGION THAN EXPECTED TODAY.
NOT QUITE MEETING RED FLAG CONDITIONS IN THE SOUTHERN PANHANDLE
YET THIS AFTERNOON...BUT IF ANY MIXING OF THE SMOKE OCCURS...DO
EXPECT HUMIDITIES TO DROP AND WINDS TO GUST HIGHER WHICH SHOULD
PUSH THEM BELOW CRITICAL THRESHOLDS. FURTHER WEST...SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTHEAST ACROSS
THE MOUNTAINS AND NEARBY LOCATIONS THROUGH THIS EVENING AS
MONSOONAL MOISTURE COMBINES WITH A SHORTWAVE MOVING UP FROM THE
SOUTHWEST.

A STRONGER UPPER LEVEL WAVE MOVING INTO THE NORTHERN ROCKIES
TOMORROW WILL STRENGTHEN THE LEESIDE PRESSURE TROUGH IN
MONTANA BEGINNING EARLY TOMORROW. THE COLD FRONT CURRENTLY
STALLED IN NORTHEAST COLORADO WILL THUS BEGIN TO SHIFT NORTH AS A
WARM FRONT LATE TONIGHT AS THE LEESIDE LOW BEGINS TO STRENGTHEN IN
MONTANA. WINDS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WILL SHIFT TO THE SOUTH
BEHIND THE FRONT...AND WILL SEE A RETURN OF THE HOT AND VERY DRY
CONDITIONS AS A RESULT. MODERATE SOUTH WINDS WILL OCCUR AS WELL AS
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT CONTINUES TO DEEPEN THROUGH THE DAY. THUS
WENT AHEAD WITH A FIRE WEATHER WATCH TO ACCOUNT FOR THE EXPECTED
RETURN OF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS IN THE LATE MORNING
THROUGH EARLY EVENING HOURS. SOUTH WINDS SHOULD REMAIN ELEVATED
FRIDAY NIGHT IN THE NORTHERN PANHANDLE AS THE LOW LEVEL JET
STRENGTHENS IN THIS AREA...WITH HUMIDITY RECOVERIES EXPECTED TO BE
VERY POOR THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS AS A RESULT. THE MONSOONAL
PLUME WILL REMAIN OVER THE MOUNTAINS OF SOUTHEAST WYOMING
TOMORROW...SO EXPECT A REPEAT OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS IN THIS AREA THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.

SATURDAY WILL BE SIMILAR TO FRIDAY...HOWEVER LLVL MOISTURE
ADVECTION ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS SHOULD KEEP CRITICAL FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS AT BAY. WILL HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THE
POTENTIAL THAT THE HIGHER MOISTURE REMAINS TO THE EAST
THO...ALLOWING HUMIDITIES TO DROP MORE THAN CURRENTLY ANTICIPATED.
YET ANOTHER ROUND OF OROGRAPHIC CONVECTION IS EXPECTED FOR
SATURDAY...WITH A FEW LIKELY MOVING OFF INTO THE PLAINS AS THE
UPPER LEVEL JET STREAM APPROACHES FROM THE SOUTHWEST.

LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...
MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SHOW DIFFERENCES ON THE AVAILABLE
MOISTURE AND RESULTANT AFTERNOON SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORMS CHANCES
FOR NEXT WEEK...WITH THE 30/12Z ECMWF STILL SUBSTANTIALLY DRIER
COMPARED TO THE 30/12Z GFS. SOUTHWEST FLOW ON SUNDAY WILL BECOME
ZONAL ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY AND FINALLY NORTHWESTERLY FOR
WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY. A SERIES OF WEAK DISTURBANCES EMBEDDED WITHIN
THIS FLOW WILL SUPPORT AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING THUNDERSTORM MAINLY CONFINED OVER THE HIER TERRAIN.
THIS WILL ESPECIALLY BE TRUE ON SUNDAY WHEN A WEAK SFC FRONT DROPS
THROUGH THE CWFA. H7 TEMPERATURES PROGS WILL COOL FROM AROUND 15C ON
SUNDAY TO NEAR 9C ON THURSDAY. AS A RESULT...AFTERNOON HIGH
