AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
815 PM MST TUE FEB 18 2014

.SYNOPSIS...THE MILD WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT ACROSS THE GREAT BASIN
TODAY WILL YIELD TO A STRONG COLD FRONT SCHEDULED TO REACH NORTHERN
UTAH EARLY WEDNESDAY. A MOIST AND COLDER WEST NORTHWEST FLOW WILL
REMAIN ACROSS MUCH OF UTAH THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...WATER VAPOR LOOP SHOWS A RIDGE OVER THE
INTERMOUNTAIN WEST...WITH THE NEXT SYSTEM APPROACHING THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST. GOES/GPS/RAP/00Z RAOB INDICATE THE PRECIPITABLE WATER
VALUE IS BETWEEN 0.14" AND 0.36".

SOME CHANGES TO THE FORECAST THROUGH 18Z TOMORROW. THE MOST NOTABLE
ONE WAS THE ISSANCE OF A WIND ADVISORY FOR THE WEST DESERTS
TOMORROW. RAP INIDCATES +8 TO +10MB/3HR PRESSURE RISES WITH THE COLD
FRONTAL PASSAGE TOMORROW MORNING. ALSO SHOWN ARE SIGNIFICANT COLD
ADVECTION AT 700MB AND A STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT. THESE ARE ALL
EACH FORECAST TO BE GREATER THAN WITH THE LAST SYSTEM WHICH HAD A
FEW WARNING LEVEL WINDS OUT WEST BUT DURATION FOR ADVISORY FELL
SHORT. WOULD NOT BE SUPRISED AT ALL TO SEE MORE SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS
ESPECIALLY ALONG STATE ROUTE 30 WHERE 60-65 MPH GUSTS ARE POSSIBLE.
NEXT SHIFT MAY NEED TO UPGRADE TO A WARNING. LEFT DOWNSTREAM AREAS
ALONE FOR NOW AS COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE WOULD BE DURING THE AFTERNOON
FOR THE UINTA BASIN AND CASTLE COUNTRY.

LOCAL HIGH RESOLUTION WRF-ARW MODELS ALONG WITH HRRR-3KM ALL
INDICATE VERY LOW TO NO PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE STATE THROUGH
TONIGHT. REMOVED MENTIONABLE POPS FOR VALLEYS SOUTH OF BRIGHAM CITY.
MINOR VALLEY ACCUMULATIONS EXPECTED TOMORROW MORNING ESPECIALLY
OGDEN NORTHWARD...THOUGH WARMER ROAD SURFACE SHOULD HELP MITIGATE
IMPACTS. GOING ADVISORY FOR THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS LOOKS ON TRACK.

OTHERWISE JUST A COUPLE OF MINOR TWEAKS TO OVERNIGHT LOWS AND SKY
COVERAGE. REST UNCHANGED.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...
A NEAR ZONAL FLOW PATTERN REMAINS IN PLACE OVER THE EASTERN GREAT
BASIN THIS AFTERNOON. CLOUDS HAVE BEEN THICKENING OVER THE AREA
AHEAD OF THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM WHICH IS CURRENTLY NEAR THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST COAST. THESE CLOUDS SHOULD HELP MODERATE MIN
TEMPERATURES TONIGHT BEFORE THE COLD FRONT ARRIVES TOMORROW.

THE COLD FRONT IS STILL PROGGED TO ARRIVE OVER NORTHERN UTAH
TOMORROW MORNING...THEN QUICKLY SWEEP ACROSS THE SALT LAKE VALLEY
AROUND 16-17Z...BEFORE MOVING THROUGH SOUTHERN UTAH DURING THE EARLY
AFTERNOON. PRECIPITATION WILL FILL IN BEHIND THE FRONT AND MAY BE
INTENSE AT TIMES AS SOME OF THIS WILL BE CONVECTIVE IN NATURE. THIS
PRECIPITATION MAY BEGIN BRIEFLY AS A RAIN-SNOW MIX...BUT SNOW LEVELS
SHOULD QUICKLY LOWER ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH DUE TO BOTH PRECIPITATION
INTENSITY AND THE COLD AIRMASS BEHIND THE FRONT. THIS COULD LEAD TO
SOME QUICK ACCUMULATIONS...BUT THE SHORT DURATION OF THE FRONTAL
BAND OWING TO THE FAST-MOVING TROUGH WILL KEEP ACCUMULATIONS LIGHT
IN THE VALLEYS. MOUNTAINS WILL SEE HIGHER SNOW RATIOS AND ALONG WITH
SOME OROGRAPHIC COMPONENT...MORE SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS WILL BE
POSSIBLE. A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE
MOUNTAINS OF NORTHERN UTAH.

WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION WILL SPREAD FROM NORTHERN UTAH INTO CENTRAL
UTAH BY EARLY AFTERNOON WITH MINOR ACCUMULATION EXPECTED.
PRECIPITATION IN GENERAL WILL BE OF RELATIVELY SHORT DURATION ACROSS
MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA AND QUICKLY WIND DOWN BEHIND THE
FRONT...LEAVING SOME CONVECTIVE SHOWERS IN PLACE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. THERE IS A CHANCE FOR A FEW SHOWERS TO CONTINUE OFF THE
GREAT SALT LAKE DURING THE EVENING HOURS.

POSTFRONTAL WINDS WILL BE OF SOME CONCERN ACROSS FAVORED DOWNSLOPE
AREAS SUCH AS THE NORTHWEST DESERTS AND THE EASTERN VALLEYS. SOME OF
THIS COULD REACH ADVISORY CRITERIA...BUT WITH MOST OF THIS EXPECTED
TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND EVENING...WILL HOLD OFF AND LET NEXT COUPLE
OF SHIFTS TAKE A CLOSER LOOK.

AS THE TROUGH EXITS THE AREA...STRENGTHENING WARM ADVECTION IS
EXPECTED TO BRING SOME LIGHT PRECIPITATION TO THE NORTH LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY. AFTER THAT...THE GRAZING SYSTEM
FOR FRIDAY LOOKS INCREASINGLY WEAKER ON SUCCESSIVE MODEL RUNS. STILL
KEEPING SOME LIKELY POPS FOR THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY MORNING IN
THE NORTHERN WASATCH...BUT IF MODEL TRENDS HOLD...THIS STORM MAY END
UP RESULTING IN LITTLE OR NO IMPACT TO THE AREA.

WARM ADVECTION RETURNS OVER NORTHERN UTAH AS WEAK WAVE GRAZES THE
FAR NORTHERN PORTION OF THE STATE FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY
MORNING.  WITH MODEST LIFT CONTINUING ACROSS FAR NORTHERN
UTAH...WILL CONTINUE WITH CHANCE POPS FOR THE NRN MOUNTAINS AND
SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR THE FAR NRN VALLEYS FRI NIGHT.

BEHIND THIS FEATURE AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BEGINS TO SHARPEN OVER THE
WEST LATE THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.  THE ECMWF IS MORE
AGGRESSIVE WITH THE RIDGE...BOTH IN AMPLITUDE AND TIMING...THAN THE
GFS.  THE RIDGE IN THE OPERATIONAL GFS IS SHALLOW COMPARED TO THE
MAJORITY OF THE GEFS MEMBERS WHICH GENERALLY LOOK MORE LIKE THE
ECMWF.  BASED ON THE ECMWF AND GFS ENSEMBLES HAVE LEANED MORE TOWARD
THE ECMWF.  THIS DRIVES THE WEAK SYSTEMS OVER THE TOP OF THE RIDGE
FURTHER NORTH AND WOULD REDUCE THE CHANCE OF PRECIP ACROSS THE FAR
NORTHERN UTAH MOUNTAINS LATE THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

TEMPERATURES WILL SLOWLY WARM THROUGH THE PERIOD ALTHOUGH THE GFS
TENDS TO HOLD MID LEVEL TEMPERATURES STEADY THROUGH THE EARLY
PORTION OF NEXT WEEK.  THE MORE AMPLIFIED ECMWF BRINGS TEMPERATURES
UP A BIT MORE AND HAVE NUDGED IN THIS DIRECTION. MAY NEED TO GET
MORE AGGRESSIVE WITH THE WARMUP EARLY NEXT WEEK IF THE GFS COMES
AROUND TO THE ECMWF SOLUTION IN SUBSEQUENT RUNS.  AS IT STANDS
NOW...NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY WILL INCREASE TO WELL
ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES BY TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...SOUTH WINDS WILL PREVAIL AT THE KSLC TERMINAL THROUGH 16-
17Z...GRADUALLY INCREASING AND BECOMING GUSTY. A COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE THROUGH THE TERMINAL BETWEEN 16-17Z SWITCHING WINDS TO A GUSTY
NORTHWEST WITH A 2-3 HOUR PERIOD OF IFR SNOWFALL OCCURRING 1-2 HOURS
AFTER THE WIND SWITCH. CIGS ARE EXPECTED TO DROP TO 6000 FT AGL...OR
BELOW...BETWEEN 09-12Z. THERE IS A 30 PERCENT CHANCE THAT CEILINGS
COULD DROP TO 6000 FT BEFORE 09Z.
