INTO SE IA.  THAT LINES UP FAIRLY CLOSE WITH THE CONVECTION
ARES AND THE MOISTURE GRADIENT AT H8 AND WITH THE
PWAT...THOUGH EACH OF THOSE AREA A BIT FARTHER NORTHEAST.  VERY
UNSTABLE AIRMASS WITH LI'S TO -12 AND CAPE ABOVE 6000 J/KG.

SOUTHWEST FLOW PATTERN REMAINS IN PLACE THROUGH MUCH OF THE WEEK AS
THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH SLOWLY MEANDERS FROM THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST
EASTWARD INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS BY THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY. THIS WILL
ALLOW FOR A CONTINUED PUSH OF WARM AIR AND MOISTURE INTO THE STATE
OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS...WITH ENERGY LIFTING OUT OF THE WESTERN US
TROUGH AND THROUGH THE REGION WHICH SHOULD ALLOW FOR INTERMITTENT
CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE WEEK. INITIALLY TUESDAY PUSH OF
MUCH WARMER AIR SHOULD KEEP THE AREA CAPPED ALOFT DURING THE DAYTIME

EDGE OF THE CAP. THIS ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO DIVE SOUTHEASTWARD
THROUGH THE NORTHERN/EASTERN CWA TUESDAY NIGHT. SFC TROUGH
ASSOCIATED WITH THE WESTERN US UPPER TROUGH TO PUSH EASTWARD AND
APPROACH THE WESTERN CWA LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY...BRINGING THE
NEXT CHANCE FOR MORE WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS. EXTENDED MODELS BRING
THE COOL FRONTAL BOUNDARY THROUGH THE AREA THURSDAY...WITH WEAK
CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT INTO FRIDAY WHICH MAY RESULT IN SOME LINGERING
CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE BULK OF THE ACTIVITY EXPECTED
LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. PATTERN REMAINS A BIT MORE MUDDLED
INTO THE WEEKEND WITH A FRONTAL BOUNDARY STALLED OVER THE AREA AND
WEAK CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT. OTHERWISE UPPER RIDGING TO BUILD INTO THE
CENTRAL US FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK WHICH LOOKS TO LEND TOWARD A DRIER
FORECAST AGAIN INTO THE BEGINNING OF THE WORK WEEK.
