AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
949 PM MDT WED MAY 28 2014

.SYNOPSIS...MOISTURE WILL INCREASE FROM THE SOUTH THURSDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY WITH DRIER AIR SPREADING BACK IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST ON
SATURDAY.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A VERY WARM SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT PREVAILS
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS EVENING...DOWNSTREAM FROM AN UPPER
LOW SPINNING ACROSS THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. EXTENSIVE MID AND HIGH
LEVEL MOISTURE WITHIN THIS FLOW HAS OVERSPREAD THE FORECAST
AREA...AND COUPLED WITH DAYTIME HEATING PRODUCED ENOUGH SHALLOW
INSTABILITY FOR A FEW HIGH BASED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DURING
THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. THESE HAVE BEEN ON THE DOWNWARD
TREND OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF HOURS...AND EXPECT THIS TO CONTINUE
WITH CONVECTION EVENTUALLY DYING OFF BY LATE EVENING.

MEANWHILE THE SURFACE COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST LOW HAS CROSSED INTO NORTHWEST UT...AND CURRENTLY
STRETCHES FROM NEAR LOGAN BACK ACROSS THE GSL AND INTO THE WEST
DESERT SOUTH OF WENDOVER. THIS BOUNDARY WILL CONTINUE TO SAG
SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT...EVENTUALLY STALLING ACROSS CENTRAL UT DURING
THE DAY THURSDAY. A COOLER AIRMASS IN THE WAKE OF THIS BOUNDARY
WILL KNOCK ROUGHLY 10 DEGREES OFF DAYTIME HIGHS ACROSS THE NORTH
THURSDAY...WHILE A SLIGHT COOLING TREND IS EXPECTED ACROSS THE
SOUTH WHERE TEMPERATURES ALOFT COOL SLIGHTLY.

UPDATED EARLIER TO EXPAND POPS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN
VALLEYS...AS WELL AS TO INCREASE CLOUD COVER OVERNIGHT.

&&

.AVIATION...SOUTH WINDS AT KSLC WILL SWITCH TO THE NORTHWEST
BETWEEN 05-06Z WITH THE PASSAGE OF A COLD FRONT. THERE IS A 30
PERCENT CHANCE THIS SHIFT WILL HOLD OFF UNTIL 07Z. OTHERWISE VFR
CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL UNDER A CANOPY OF MID AND HIGH LEVEL CLOUD
COVER.

&&

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
UT...NONE.
WY...NONE.
