AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RIVERTON WY
1044 PM MST SUN DEC 22 2013

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY

NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT AND MONDAY WITH A WEAK
CANADIAN COLD FRONT ACROSS THE NORTH AND EAST THIS EVENING.  THE
FRONT IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AND WASH OUT AS LOW LEVEL WEST FLOW
DEVELOPS. LIGHT SNOW WILL CONTINUE OVER THE WESTERN AND NORTHERN
MOUNTAINS WITH AREAS OF LIGHT SNOW OR FLURRIES OVER THE BIG HORN
BASIN...EASTERN JOHNSON COUNTY AND NATRONA COUNTY.  AS WEST WINDS
DEVELOP ON MONDAY...SOME DOWNSLOPE WARMING WILL OCCUR ALONG AND NEAR
THE EAST SLOPES OF THE MOUNTAINS. THIS WILL MAKE MAX TEMPERATURES FOR
MONDAY RATHER DIFFICULT WITH THE LOWER PARTS OF THE BASINS REMAINING
TRAPPED WHILE OTHER AREAS MIX OUT AND WARM UP. SOME AREAS WILL WARM
INTO THE UPPER 30S WITH LOCAL LOWER 40S POSSIBLE IN THE CODY
FOOTHILLS.  SNOWFALL AMOUNTS OF 3 TO 6 INCHES WILL BE POSSIBLE IN
THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS WITH 1 TO 2 INCHES IN THE LOWER ELEVATIONS.

.LONG TERM...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY

THE PROMINENT TROUGH NOW LOCATED OFF THE PACIFIC COAST BETWEEN 140W
AND 150W WILL BE TRACKING SOUTHEAST TOWARD THE NORTHERN ROCKIES
MONDAY NIGHT THAT WILL FOLLOW A FLATTENING RIDGE. AHEAD OF THIS
WEATHER FEATURE...THE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN ALONG
WITH INCREASING BOUNDARY LEVEL WINDS OF 40 TO 50 MPH WINDS MONDAY
NIGHT. FIVE 700MB HEIGHT LINES SPACED OUT OVER WY EVERY 3 DECAMETERS
ARE PROGGED FOR MONDAY NIGHT. A SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT OF 14MB
BETWEEN GCC AND RKS IS PROGGED FOR THIS TIME FRAME AS WELL. IN
ADDITION TO THE STRONG GRADIENT WINDS WHICH WILL AFFECT THE SOUTHERN
WIND CORRIDOR FROM RKS TO CPR MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY AS WELL AS
THE EAST SLOPE OF THE DIVIDE...THERE ARE SIGNS THAT A MOUNTAIN WAVE
MAY BE SETTING UP FOR THE CODY FOOTHILLS MONDAY NIGHT. THE FROUDE
NUMBER FOR THAT AREA IS CLOSE TO A ONE. THE WINDS ACTUALLY DECREASE
IN SPEED SOMEWHAT WITH INCREASING ELEVATION AT THE LOWEST ELEVATIONS
IN THE CODY FOOTHILLS ALONG WITH STRONGER WINDS EXITING THE
ABSAROKAS THEN ENTERING THE ABSAROKAS. FOR WHAT ITS WORTH...THE
POTENTIAL FOR GAP FLOW IS MARGINAL WITH A 13C H7 TEMP SPREAD FROM
YNP TO CLARK. HOISTED A HIGH WIND WATCH VALID FROM 5 PM MONDAY
AFTERNOON THROUGH 2 AM TUESDAY MORNING FOR THE CODY FOOTHILLS AND
ALSO THE ABSAROKAS TO ALSO ACCOUNT FOR THE STRONG WINDS EXPECTED AT
THE ELEVATIONS OF NEARBY DEAD INDIAN PASS ALONG THE CHIEF JOSEPH
HIGHWAY.

IN THE MEANTIME...SNOW WILL FALL IN FAR WESTERN WYOMING MONDAY NIGHT
AND TUESDAY AS THIS TROUGH SWINGS THROUGH. 4 TO 8 INCHES OF SNOWFALL
IS EXPECTED IN THE WESTERN MTNS ALONG WITH 1 TO 3 INCHES IN THE
WESTERN VALLEYS...NOT QUITE ADVISORY CRITERIA. ISENTROPIC LIFT AND
UPSLOPE FLOW WILL ENHANCE SNOWFALL IN THE WEST MONDAY NIGHT ALONG
WITH ONE LAST SNOW BURST TUESDAY MORNING WHEN LIFTED INDICES BRIEFLY
GO NEGATIVE WITH THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT. 3 TO 5 INCHES IS
EXPECTED IN THE BIG HORN MOUNTAINS. BRIEF SNOWFALL WITH RELATIVELY
LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO SPREAD TO AREAS EAST OF THE
DIVIDE AT THE LOWER ELEVATIONS AS WELL AS THE OWL CREEK MTNS AND
CASPER MTN MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY.

TEMPERATURES WILL A STRUGGLE TO RISE ABOVE THE 20S ANYWHERE IN THE
CWA CHRISTMAS DAY IN THE COOLER AIR BEHIND THIS EXITING TROUGH. THEN
FOR MOST OF THE REST OF THE WEEK EXPECT A NEGLIGIBLE WARM UP IN THE
BASINS WITH TEMPS IN THE 30S EXCEPT 20S WEST. HIGHS IN THE 40S CAN
BE EXPECTED IN AREAS THAT MIX OUT SUCH AS THE SOUTHERN WIND CORRIDOR
TOWARD THE END OF THE WEEK AS A LEE SIDE TROUGH SETS UP AND
SOUTHWEST WINDS INCREASE. THEN TEMPS WILL COOL OFF AGAIN NEXT
WEEKEND WHEN A PACIFIC COLD FRONT SWINGS ACROSS THE AREA SATURDAY
NIGHT WITH THE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS INDICATING AN ARCTIC FRONT
GLANCING US TO THE NORTHEAST SUNDAY. INDICATED LIGHT SNOWFALL WITH
THE ASSOCIATED TROUGH EAST AND WEST OF THE DIVIDE FOR SATURDAY
NIGHT.

.AVIATION.../06Z ISSUANCE/

WEST OF THE DIVIDE...KBPI/KJAC/KPNA/KRKS ROUTES

A MOIST NORTHWEST FLOW...AHEAD OF A QUICK MOVING STORM SYSTEM MONDAY
NIGHT...WILL RESULT IN THE CONTINUATION OF OCCASIONAL LIGHT
SNOW/FLURRIES AND LOW CEILINGS THRU 21Z MONDAY ACROSS THE FAR
WEST...WITH LESS IMPACT ACROSS THE UPPER GREEN BASIN AND SWEETWATER
COUNTY. BETWEEN 21Z MONDAY AND 03Z TUESDAY...CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
TO DETERIORATE...ESPECIALLY ACROSS NORTHWEST WYOMING...INCLUDING AT
THE KJAC TERMINAL WITH INCREASING WINDS...MOUNTAIN TOP
TURBULENCE...AND HEAVIER SNOWFALL. SOME SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY AND
MVFR/BRIEF IFR CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE FARTHER SOUTHEAST
AFFECTING KBPI...KPNA AND KRKS TERMINALS...BUT PROLONGED PERIODS OF
MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED. FAR WESTERN MOUNTAINS WILL BE
OBSCURED MUCH IF NOT ALL OF THE TIME...WITH THE WIND RIVER MOUNTAINS
OBSCURED AT TIMES.

EAST OF THE DIVIDE...KCOD/KCPR/KLND/KRIW/KWRL ROUTES

NORTHWEST FLOW BANDS OF SNOW ACROSS THE LOWER ELEVATIONS CONTINUES
TO SHRINK IN COVERAGE AND THIS TREND WILL CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT
COUPLE OF HOURS. AFTER 09Z...LIGHT SNOW/FLURRIES AND ASSOCIATED
MVFR/IFR CEILINGS SHOULD BE CONFINED TO THE MOUNTAINS. AREAS OF
LIGHT SNOW/FLURRIES WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE IN THE MOUNTAINS MONDAY.
HOWEVER THE MAIN ISSUE MONDAY WILL BE INCREASING WINDS ON THE LEE
SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN RANGES...AND THE WIND CORRIDORS. TRAPPED
BASINS...AWAY FROM THE FOOTHILLS WILL KEEP MAINLY LIGHT WINDS
MONDAY. LIGHT WINDS...HIGH BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE COULD RESULT IN
SOME PATCHY FOG THROUGH ABOUT 16Z IN THE CENTRAL BASINS. MOUNTAINS
WILL BE OBSCURED FOR MUCH OF THE REMAINDER OF TONIGHT...BUT IMPROVE
BY SUNRISE WITH ONLY MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS AT TIMES. TONIGHT...A
QUICK MOVING STORM SYSTEM WILL RESULT IN A BETTER CHANCE OF SNOW
SHOWERS OVER THE MOUNTAINS WITH POSSIBLY SOME ACTIVITY SPILLING INTO
THE LOWER ELEVATIONS...WITH FREQUENT MOUNTAINS OBSCURATIONS. HOWEVER
THE MAIN CONCERN EAST OF THE DIVIDE WILL BE STRONG WINDS AND
MOUNTAIN AND ADJACENT FOOTHILL TURBULENCE  MONDAY NIGHT WITH THIS
STORM SYSTEM. SOME OF THE STRONG WINDS COULD MIX INTO THE CODY
FOOTHILLS MONDAY NIGHT. TAF SITES ARE EXPECTED TO HAVE MAINLY VFR
CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...

COLD WINTER WEATHER WILL CONTINUE WITH WIDESPREAD SNOW
COVER...MOUNTAIN SNOWS WINDY AREAS IN AND NEAR THE MOUNTAINS
TONIGHT AND MONDAY. RELATIVE HUMIDITY WILL BE HIGH WITH LOW MIXING
HEIGHTS AND POOR SMOKE DISPERSAL.
