AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
454 PM MDT SAT AUG 24 2013

.SYNOPSIS...AN UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK
THROUGH UTAH THROUGH THIS EVENING BEFORE SHIFTING TO THE NORTHEAST
OVERNIGHT. SIGNIFICANT MOISTURE WILL SPREAD BACK INTO THE AREA
SUNDAY AND REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE TRACKING NORTHEAST ALONG THE
UT/NV BORDER THE PRIMARY FOCUS IN THE SHORT TERM. SAID SHORT WAVES
INTERACTION WITH EARLIER MCS OVER WESTERN ARIZONA PROVIDED AN
EARLIER THAN ANTICIPATED TAP INTO MOISTURE IN VICINITY OF TROPICAL
STORM IVO TODAY...TONGUE OF ELEVATED PWAT RANGING FROM 1.1 TO 1.3
INCHES SURGED RAPIDLY NORTH ACROSS WESTERN UTAH OVER THE LAST 12
HOURS AS SUCH. THIS COMBINED WITH MLCAPE BETWEEN 1000-2000 J/KG WITH
NORMALIZED VALUES APPROACHING .25 AT TIMES ALLOWED FOR RAPIDLY
DEVELOPING CONVECTION ACROSS THE WEST THAT IS ONGOING AT THIS
TIME.

DEEP MOISTURE IN PLACE HAS ALLOWED FOR EFFICIENT HEAVY RAINERS AND
SHEAR ASSOCIATED WITH SHORT WAVE/JET ALOFT ALLOWED FOR MULTIPLE
NEAR SEVERE CELLS. HAIL TO PENNIES AND RAINFALL IN EXCESS OF 1.2
INCHES IN 20 MINUTES WERE REALIZED IN WEST CENTRAL UTAH AND THE
SOUTHWEST. CONTINUED PROGRESSION OF SHORT WAVE FOCUSING ACTIVITY
ACROSS THE NORTH AS THIS IS TYPED WITH SCATTERED STRONG CONVECTION
EXPECTED TO IMPACT THE WASATCH FRONT OVER THE NEXT 6 HOURS. OF
MOST CONCERN ARE AREA BURN SCARS AND DEBRIS FLOW POTENTIAL BUT
CAN NOT RULE OUT SMALL TO MODERATE HAIL AND STRONG WINDS WITH THE
STRONGER CELLS. POPS HAVE BEEN RAISED ALONG THE WASATCH FRONT AND
NORTHERN MOUNTAINS IN THIS LATEST PACKAGE.

AS SAID SHORT WAVE CONTINUES TO LIFT NORTHEAST ACROSS THE STATE
THIS EVENING ENHANCED ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO SHIFT FROM WESTERN
PORTIONS TO THE EAST THOUGH THREAT OF ANY ORGANIZED CONVECTION
LOOKS TO WANE RAPIDLY AFTER 03/04Z PER SHORT RANGE SREF PRODUCTS.

SHIFTING FOCUS TO IVO AND ITS EVOLUTION...GOOD MODEL TO MODEL AND
RUN TO RUN AGREEMENT CONTINUE TO ADVERTISE AN ANOMALOUSLY COOL AND
WET PERIOD TAKING FORM TOMORROW AND LASTING THROUGH AT LEAST
TUESDAY. REMNANT MOISTURE/DYNAMICS FROM IVO WILL LIFT NORTHEAST
THROUGH THE STATE IN MULTIPLE WAVES ALONG A DEVELOPING 70-80 KNOT
JET OVER EASTERN NEVADA. INITIAL SURGE ENTERS FAR SOUTHERN UTAH
EARLY TOMORROW MORNING PROGRESSING NORTH THROUGH THE DAY. DEEPEST
MOISTURE EXPECTED TO TRACK AS FAR NORTH AS THE WASATCH FRONT BY
THE EVENING. HAVE NOT MADE DRASTIC CHANGES TO FORECAST OUTSIDE OF
INCREASING POPS/QPF FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS GLOBALS LINING UP
BETTER WITH ONE SUCH MID LEVEL WAVE PASSAGE. LEANED ON HIGHER SIDE
FOR QPF...ESPECIALLY CENTRAL/SOUTHERN AREAS WHERE OROGRAPHICS WILL
ENHANCE LOW LEVEL LIFT. ELEVATED INSTABILITY AND MARGINAL CAPE
COMBINED WITH BROAD LIFT SUPPORTED BY JET SHOULD ALLOW FOR
WIDESPREAD MODERATE STRATIFORM PRECIP WITH EMBEDDED CONVECTION
CAPABLE OF HEAVY RAIN. A FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES FOR MANY AREAS OF
SOUTHERN/CENTRAL/EASTERN UTAH AS MULTIPLE SLOTS SHOULD SEE FLOWS
AND LARGER MAINSTEMS LOOK TO SEE NOTICEABLE RISES PER RECENT
COORDINATION WITH CBRFC.

THOUGH DEEPEST MOISTURE WILL BEGIN TO ERODE MIDWEEK...TAP TO
RETURN FLOW MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE INTO AND POSSIBLY THROUGH NEXT
WEEKEND. THIS SAID...MID TO LATE WEEK MORE TYPICAL OF MOST
MONSOONAL PLUMES AND NOT AS PRONOUNCED AS WHAT IS EXPECTED THROUGH
TUESDAY. DID NOT FOCUS ON THESE LATTER PERIODS AS MUCH AS SHORT
TERM DUE TO ANOMALOUS NATURE OF THE NEXT 72 HOURS.

&&

.AVIATION...THE MAIN AVIATION THREAT AT THE SLC TERMINAL WILL BE A
DIRECT HIT FROM A THUNDERSTORM THROUGH 3Z TO 4Z THIS EVENING. IF A
THUNDERSTORM MOVES OVERHEAD...A 40 PERCENT CHANCE EXISTS
CONDITIONS WILL DROP INTO THE IFR RANGE. WINDS WILL BE GUSTY AND
ERRATIC WITH STORMS IN THE VICINITY. PREVAILING WINDS WILL REMAIN
FROM THE SOUTH OVERNIGHT...WITH SPEEDS IN THE 10 TO 15 KNOT RANGE.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE
STATE INTO THIS EVENING. THESE STORMS ARE ACCOMPANIED BY WETTING
RAIN...AND THE MAIN FIRE WEATHER THREAT IS GUSTY...ERRATIC WINDS
IN THE VICINITY OF STORMS. DEEP MOISTURE WILL MOVE INTO THE STATE
FROM THE SOUTH TOMORROW...BRINGING A PROLONGED PERIOD OF
WIDESPREAD WETTING RAIN. THE FOCUS OF PRECIPITATION WILL BE ACROSS
SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL UTAH TOMORROW...AND MOVING NORTHWARD MONDAY.

&&

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
UT...FLOOD WATCH FROM SUNDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON FOR
     UTZ010>014-016-019>021-517-518.
