AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
1004 AM MST THU JAN 19 2012

.SYNOPSIS...A RATHER MOIST WESTERLY FLOW PATTERN WILL REMAIN
LOCKED IN ON THE GREAT BASIN THROUGH THE WEEKEND. PERIODS OF
MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW ARE EXPECTED IN THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS
THROUGH SATURDAY...WITH RAIN AND SNOW FOR THE LOWER ELEVATIONS
HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND. WIDESPREAD SNOW WILL COVER MUCH OF THE
STATE LATE IN THE WEEKEND.

&&

.DISCUSSION...ABUNDANT MOISTURE REMAINS OVER NORTHERN AND CENTRAL
UTAH THIS MORNING WITH ZONAL FLOW. 12Z KSLC SOUNDING INDICATED PW
VALUES AROUND 0.60 INCHES...WHICH IS WELL OVER TWO STANDARD
DEVIATIONS ABOVE AVERAGE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. SNOW CONTINUES
OVER THE MOUNTAINS OF NORTHERN UTAH AND WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE
DAY...GETTING GENERALLY LIGHTER THROUGH THE EVENING. NORTHERN VALLEY
LOCATIONS WILL LIKELY SEE PERIODS OF LIGHT RAIN AS WELL. GOING
HEADLINES SEEM TO CAPTURE THE SITUATION WELL OVERALL. PRECIP LOOKS
TO BE ENDING OVER SOUTHWEST WYOMING THOUGH...AND MAY NEED TO
CANCEL THAT HEADLINE BY THE EARLY AFTERNOON.

RATHER ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN IS PROGGED TO CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY
NEXT WEEK. THE NEXT IN A SERIES OF TROUGHS WILL PUSH THROUGH
NORTHERN UTAH OVERNIGHT...BRINGING A WEAKLY DEFINED FRONTAL
BOUNDARY THROUGH. 700 MB ARE EXPECTED TO DROP TO AROUND -6C OVER
NORTHERN UTAH...WHICH WOULD SUPPORT SOME SNOW MIXING IN WITH RAIN
IN VALLEY LOCATIONS. NAM BUFR SOUNDINGS ACTUALLY INDICATE WBZ
HEIGHTS CRASHING OVERNIGHT...ALLOWING FOR VALLEY SNOW.
HOWEVER...OTHER MODEL SOUNDINGS (GFS/ARW/RUC) KEEP VALLEY PRECIP
AS ALL RAIN...WITH SNOW POSSIBLY MIXING IN ON BENCH LOCATIONS.

BRIEF LULL IN THE PRECIP IS EXPECTED FRIDAY AFTERNOON AS WEAK
RIDGING BUILDS IN BEHIND THE EXITING WAVE...THOUGH PRECIP MAY NOT
TOTALLY SHUT OFF FOR THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS. GLOBAL MODELS
INDICATE A MORE POTENT TROUGH WILL PUSH THROUGH THE ENTIRE
FORECAST AREA SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY. MOISTURE IS
EXPECTED TO INCREASE SATURDAY MORNING WITH STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY
FLOW AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM. BOTH THE GFS AND THE EC INDICATE 700 MB
FLOW OVER SOUTHERN UTAH ABOVE 50 KTS...SO SURFACE WINDS COULD BE
QUITE GUSTY IF THESE MIX DOWN. FRONT IS PROGGED TO CROSS THE AREA
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS...AND 700 MB TEMPS IN THE
-12C TO -14C RANGE BY SUNDAY MORNING WOULD SUPPORT P-TYPE CHANGING
BACK OVER TO SNOW IN THE VALLEYS OF NORTHERN AND CENTRAL UTAH.
