AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PHOENIX AZ
300 AM MST THU DEC 25 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A SOMEWHAT DRY LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL SLIDE THROUGH THE AREA TODAY
BEFORE SLOWING AND LINGERING OVER THE FOUR CORNERS THROUGH THE
WEEKEND. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING COOLER AND BREEZY CONDITIONS ALONG
WITH A CHANCE OF SOME LIGHT SHOWERS...AND POSSIBLY A LIGHT DUSTING OF
SNOW...OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF SOUTH-CENTRAL ARIZONA THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING INTO FRIDAY. A DRY AND CONTINUED COOL WEATHER
PATTERN WILL PERSIST FROM THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
TODAY AND TONIGHT...
DYNAMIC UPPER LOW AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT CONTINUE TO
SETTLE ACROSS THE INTERIOR WEST THIS MORNING...WITH THE SURFACE FRONT
STRETCHED FROM NORTHERN UT THROUGH SOUTHERN NV AND ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN END OF THE CA CENTRAL VALLEY. THICK UPPER LEVEL CLOUD BAND
AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM HAS MOSTLY CLEARED INTO SE AZ THIS AM...WITH
ONLY SOME CIRRUS HOLDING OVER S GILA AND NW PINAL COUNTIES AT 230 AM
MST. GUSTY NW-W WINDS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA TODAY AS
THE SFC FRONT ADVANCES...BEGINNING WITH THE WESTERN FORECAST AND CO
RIVER VALLEY ZONES THIS MORNING WITH 30 MPH GUSTS...POSSIBLY AN
ISOLATED 40 MPH GUST OVER RIDGETOPS AND THROUGH MTN GAPS/PASSES.
FROPA IS TIMED FOR BY THE AFTN ACROSS CENTRAL AZ...WHERE WINDS WILL
BE BREEZY BUT NOT OVERLY STRONG WITH POSSIBLE GUSTS OF 20 MPH OR SO.

FCST PROFILES OF THE FRONTAL STRUCTURE AND MOISTURE FIELDS REMAIN
LARGELY UNCHANGED. ANY LOW TO MID LEVEL THETA-E GRADIENTS AND OMEGA
SUPPORT REMAIN OFFSET IN TERMS OF TIMING AND ORIENTATION TO THIN
800-700MB MOISTURE LAYER ACROSS AZ. AREAS ACROSS W AZ AND SE CA
REMAIN DRY...WITH ONLY PASSING AM CLOUDS AND NO PRECIP CHANCES. PWATS
BRIEFLY FLIRT WITH NEAR HALF INCH READINGS ACROSS CENTRAL AZ BEFORE
RAPIDLY DRYING WITH FROPA. A DEEPER MOISTURE FIELD AND BETTER
ORIENTATION WITH RESPECT TO THE FRONT WILL DEVELOP DOWN ACROSS
SOUTHEAST AZ AND EASTERN AZ HIGHER TERRAIN WHERE CHANCES FOR PRECIP
ACTIVITY LOOK BETTER THAN ACROSS OUR AREA. PRECIP CHANCES WILL MOSTLY
BE CONFINED TO THE FOOTHILLS/HIGHER TERRAIN NE-E-SE OF PHOENIX...WITH AN
ISOLATED CHANCE OF SOME SPRINKLES WORKING THEIR WAY TO THE GROUND
OVER PORTIONS OF THE PHOENIX METRO MIDDAY INTO THE EARLY EVENING. QPF
AMTS FOR THE AREAS WITH SLIGHT CHANCES WILL GENERALLY BE LIGHT...A
COUPLE HUNDREDTHS OF LIQUID AND FOR THE HIGHER TERRAIN...A DUSTING OF
SNOW POSSIBLE. PEAKS IN GILA COUNTY MAY SEE UP TO AN INCH OR TWO OF
SNOW WITH ONLY TRACES DOWN TO 5000 FEET DURING THE NIGHTTIME HOURS.

FRIDAY MORNING INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...
UPPER TROUGHING WILL LINGER OVER THE FOUR CORNERS AS THE JET STREAM
DIPS FURTHER TO OUR SOUTH FRIDAY. CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHTER WINDS WILL
TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF THE COOLER AIRMASS BEHIND THE FRONT AND RESULT
IN SOME OF OUR COOLEST MORNINGS SO FAR THIS LATE FALL/WINTER FOR
FRIDAY AM AND THE COMING WEEKEND. DAYTIME TEMPERATURES FRIDAY COULD
BE ANYWHERE FROM 8 TO 10 DEGREES BEFORE SEASONAL NORMALS WITH
WIDESPREAD 50S ACROSS THE LOWER DESERTS. FRIDAY NIGHT HAS THE
POTENTIAL TO BRING FREEZING TEMPERATURES TO NORTHERN PINAL
COUNTY...INCLUDING THE FAR SOUTHEAST AND WESTERN FRINGES OF THE
PHOENIX METRO...AS WELL AS RURAL AREAS OF SOUTHWEST ARIZONA. HIGH
TEMPERATURES FOR THE WEEKEND COULD STRUGGLE TO BREAK INTO THE 60S
ACROSS MANY OF THE LOWER DESERT LOCALES WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS DIPPING
INTO THE 30S...AND BRIEFLY THE UPPER 20S...IN SPOTS. IN ANTICIPATION
OF THE UPCOMING COLD MORNINGS...A SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT (SPSPSR)
HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR LA PAZ CO. FOR FRIDAY MORNING AND A FREEZE
WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR SATURDAY MORNING ACROSS LA PAZ...NW
MARICOPA...AND NW PINAL COUNTIES.

TAKING A BROAD BRUSH APPROACH FROM THE WIDELY VARYING MODEL FCST FOR
THE EXTENDED...MOSTLY DRY AND COOL NORTHWEST FLOW WITH EMBEDDED
SHORTWAVES WILL HOLD OVER THE REGION FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK...KEEPING
TEMPERATURES AT OR BELOW SEASONAL NORMALS WHILE PERIODICALLY BRINGING
CLOUDS INTO THE REGION. 00Z OPERATIONAL SOLNS FROM THE GFS/ECMWF/GEM
ALL ADVERTISE A LARGE UPPER LOW DEVELOPING INTO THE SW STATES WITH
CONSIDERABLE MOISTURE FIELDS AND QPF VALUES BY TUESDAY. MEANWHILE...ONLY
A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF ENSEMBLE MEMBERS SUPPORT THEIR OPERATIONAL
COUNTERPARTS. FOR NOW...MAINTAINED A COOL FORECAST FOR BOTH HIGHS AND
LOWS AND BLENDED INTO CLIMO POP INFLUENCE IN THE EXTENDED FOR TUESDAY
AND BEYOND.

&&

.AVIATION...
SOUTH-CENTRAL ARIZONA INCLUDING KPHX...KIWA...AND KSDL...AND
SOUTHEAST CALIFORNIA AND SOUTHWEST ARIZONA...INCLUDING KIPL AND
KBLH...

A COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH CALIFORNIA AND NEVADA TONIGHT WILL REACH
THE LOWER COLORADO RIVER VALLEY BETWEEN 11Z-13Z TUESDAY THEN REACH
THE PHOENIX METRO AREA BETWEEN 16Z-18Z. EXPECT SURFACE WINDS TO BE
STRONGEST BEHIND THE FRONT...GUSTING 20-30 KTS OVER SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA AND LOWER COLORADO RIVER VALLEY AND 15-25 KTS OVER
SOUTH-CENTRAL ARIZONA INCLUDING PHOENIX METRO. THE CLOUD BAND WITH
THE FRONT WILL BE BROKEN UP TO SOME DEGREE AS IT PASSES OVER THE
CALIFORNIA MOUNTAINS BUT THERE COULD BE JUST ENOUGH MOISTURE FOR SCT
CUMULUS TO BECOME TEMPORARILY BROKEN OR OVERCAST IN THE 5-7 KFT MSL
RANGE WITH/BEHIND THE FRONTAL PASSAGE. ANTICIPATE HIGHER DESERT
MOUNTAINS TO HAVE OSBCURATIONS AS THE FRONTAL ZONE PASSES WITH
LONGER LIVED CEILINGS OVER HIGHER TERRAIN NORTH AND EAST OF PHOENIX
AREA.

AVIATION DISCUSSION NOT UPDATED FOR AMENDED TAFS.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...
A WEATHER DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH THE FOUR CORNERS AREA FRIDAY
MAY BRING SOME LIGHT RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS TO HIGHER TERRAIN
LOCATIONS OF EASTERN ARIZONA. HOWEVER...THE LARGER FIRE WEATHER
IMPACT MAY BE GUSTY NORTH WINDS ONCE AGAIN RETURNING TO THE COLORADO
RIVER VALLEY. HOWEVER AS WITH THE MOST RECENT SYSTEMS...HUMIDITY
VALUES ONLY FALLING TO NEAR 20 PERCENT WILL LIMIT THE OVERALL FIRE
DANGER. MORE TRANQUIL...DRY AND COOL WEATHER WILL PREVAIL OVER THE
WEEKEND AS AFTERNOON HUMIDITY LEVELS FALL INTO A 20 TO 30 PERCENT
RANGE WITH GOOD TO EXCELLENT OVERNIGHT RECOVERY. THE POTENTIAL
EXISTS FOR ANOTHER WIND PRODUCING SYSTEM AFFECTING THE DISTRICT BY
THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.
