AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BILLINGS MT
827 AM MST WED JAN 8 2014

.UPDATE...
WEAK SHORTWAVE CONTINUING TO PRODUCE SOME ECHOES FROM EASTERN
MUSSELSHELL INTO CUSTER COUNTIES THIS MORNING...INDICATIVE OF
LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS OR FLURRIES. THIS AREA OF LIGHT PCPN WILL
TRANSLATE EAST OVER TIME AND SHOULD EXIT OUR CWA BY EARLY TO MID
AFTERNOON. 9 AM WEB CAMS SHOW SOME FOG LINGERING NEAR INGOMAR AND
ALZADA...AND BASED ON 900 FOOT CIGS AT MLS AND BHK THE HIGHER
RIDGES OF OUR EAST ARE CERTAINLY OBSCURED. WILL KEEP MENTION OF
PATCHY FOG ACROSS MUCH OF OUR EAST THRU 18Z. ELSEWHERE...WEAK
SHORTWAVE IN SOUTHERN IDAHO IS MOVING TO THE SE AND THUS BRUNT OF
PCPN ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FEATURE WILL STAY TO OUR SOUTH. TEMPS
TODAY WILL BE GENERALLY MILD WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER 40S WEST AND
20S FAR EAST. OVERALL A QUIET WEATHER DAY FOR US. JKL

&&

.SHORT TERM...VALID FOR TDY AND THU...

AS A RESULT OF A BIT OF RECENT PRECIPITATION...SOME SNOWMELT...AND
PARTIAL CLEARING AND LIGHT WINDS...AREAS ACROSS THE
SOUTHEAST...INCLUDING SHERIDAN AND COLSTRIP TO NAME A FEW...ARE
SEEING SOME PATCHY FOG DEVELOP. EXPECT THIS FOG TO DISSIPATE BY
MID MORNING...BUT DID ADD IT TO THE FORECAST UNTIL THEN. ACROSS
THE WEST...SHORTWAVE ACTIVITY APPROACHING THE REGION IS LEADING TO
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LEE SIDE LOW THAT APPEARS TO BE CENTERED OVER
HARLOWTON. THIS IS KEEPING THE PRESSURE GRADIENT SW OF
HARLOWTON...TOWARDS LIVINGSTON...RATHER TIGHT...WINDS WILL
CONTINUE TO GUST OVER 40 KTS THERE AT TIMES THIS MORNING. AS THE
SHORTWAVE ACTIVITY MOVES ACROSS THE REGION TODAY...IT SHOULD ALLOW
WINDS ACROSS THE WEST TO WEAKEN A BIT...BUT IT WILL PROVIDE SOME
MOUNTAIN SNOW SHOWERS AND...COMBINED WITH SOME ISENTROPIC
ASCENT...WILL SPREAD LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS FROM NORTH-CENTRAL ZONES
EAST AND SOUTH...IMPACTING PLACES SUCH AS FORSYTH...MILES
CITY...BAKER AND EKALAKA. INCREASED PRECIP CHANCES IN THAT REGION.

WEAK RIDGING BUILDS INTO THE REGION TONIGHT AHEAD OF STRONGER
SHORTWAVE ACTIVITY. AS THE SHORTWAVE ENERGY APPROACHES...WINDS
WILL INCREASE A BIT ACROSS THE WEST IN RESPONSE TO THE DEVELOPMENT
OF ANOTHER WEAK LEE SIDE LOW THAT WILL KEEP THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
TIGHT IN THE LIVINGSTON-BIG TIMBER AREA. NOT EXPECTING ADVISORY
LEVEL WINDS...THOUGH. AS THE SHORTWAVE ACTIVITY MOVES
EASTWARD...IT WILL INCREASE THE POTENTIAL FOR RAIN AND SNOW
SHOWERS INTO CENTRAL PLAINS AND SOUTHEAST UPSLOPE AREA. LIFT WILL
BE ENHANCED DUE TO UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE AHEAD OF A JET MAX.

THE BEST PRECIP-PRODUCING DYNAMICS MOVE EASTWARD OVERNIGHT
THURSDAY NIGHT...BUT WINDS WILL REALLY STRENGTHEN ACROSS THE WEST
AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL ALREADY BE INCREASING AHEAD OF MORE
STRONG SHORTWAVE ENERGY...WITH STRONG WINDS AT 700 MB. ADVISORY
LEVEL WINDS ARE CERTAINLY POSSIBLE LATE THURSDAY NIGHT IN THE
LIVINGSTON REGION.

HIGH TEMPS WILL RANGE FROM THE 20S EAST TODAY TO THE 40S
WEST...WITH 30S AND 40S EVERYWHERE TOMORROW. STC

.LONG TERM...VALID FOR FRI...SAT...SUN...MON...TUE...

VERY WINDY AND WARMER WITH A CHANCE FOR RAIN OR SNOW SHOWERS
MIXED IN THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD.

MODELS REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT THIS MORNING WITH ABOVE AVERAGE
CONSISTENCY OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS...THUS NO BIG CHANGES TO THE
GOING FORECAST. WEST-NORTHWEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW WILL PERSIST OVER
THE AREA THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD WITH SEVERAL DISTURBANCES AND
PACIFIC MOISTURE FLOWING ACROSS THE REGION. DISTURBANCES FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY WILL BRING THE BEST CHANCE FOR LOWER
ELEVATION RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS. PACIFIC MOISTURE FETCH WILL BRING
NEARLY CONTINUOUS CHANCES FOR SNOW SHOWERS FRIDAY THROUGH
TUESDAY WITH SEVERAL INCHES OF SNOW POSSIBLE EACH DAY ESPECIALLY
ON WEST FACING SLOPES. THIS MOISTURE SURGE WILL ALSO KEEP MOSTLY
CLOUDY CONDITIONS IN PLACE FOR THE PLAINS MODERATING TEMPERATURES
THROUGH THE EXTENDED.

STRONG WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN IMPACT IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD. WILL
PROBABLY NEED CONTINUOUS WIND HIGHLITES FOR FAVORED WIND AREAS
FROM LIVINGSTON TO BIG TIMBER TO NYE FROM FRIDAY THROUGH THE
MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. LATEST GUIDANCE SUGGESTIVE OF WARNING TYPE
WIND SPEEDS FOR LIVINGSTON SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY WHICH WOULD BE
GUSTS OF 75 MPH OR GREATER. STRONG GUSTY WINDS WILL NOT BE
CONFINED TO WESTERN ZONES AS MIXING AND STRONGER WINDS ALOFT MAY BRING
GUSTS IN THE 40 TO 50 MPH RANGE INTO THE PLAINS FRIDAY INTO
SATURDAY...THEN AGAIN SUNDAY INTO TUESDAY. THESE STRONG DOWNSLOPE
WINDS WILL HELP PUSH TEMPERATURES INTO THE UPPER 30S TO MID 40S
FOR HIGHS CENTRAL AND WEST...WITH 25 TO 35 DEGREE HIGHS FOR
EASTERN ZONES. COMBINATION OF WINDS AND CLOUD COVER WILL HOLD
OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES UP IN MANY AREAS AND TRENDED ABOVE
GUIDANCE FOR MOST AREAS EACH NIGHT...AND MAY STILL BE TOO COOL.
CHAMBERS

.AVIATION...

AREAS OF MVFR CEILINGS AND LOCALIZED VALLEY FOG WILL PERSIST INTO
MID MORNING FOR AREAS EAST OF A ROUNDUP TO BILLINGS TO SHERIDAN
LINE. THIS INCLUDES KMLS...KBHK AND K4BQ. EXPECT CONDITIONS TO
IMPROVE TO VFR FOR ALL TAF LOCATIONS THIS AFTERNOON. WINDS OVER
WESTERN FOOTHILLS LOCATIONS WILL GUST AROUND 40KTS AT
TIMES...INCREASING TONIGHT AT KLVM. OCCASIONAL MOUNTAIN
OBSCURATION WILL CONTINUE TODAY AND TONIGHT WITH ISOLATED
SNOW SHOWERS IN THE HIGH COUNTRY. BT/CHAMBERS
