Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Spokane WA
504 AM PDT MON JUN 1 2015

.SYNOPSIS...

Thunderstorm chances will increase markedly today and Tuesday as
a strong upper level trough moves in from the south. Some of the
storms today could be strong. Flash flooding will also be
possible with the thunderstorms today as the atmosphere will be
very moist and storms will be slow moving. Unsettled and cooler
weather will persist into the remainder of the work week with a
threat of showers and thunderstorms each day.

&&

.DISCUSSION...

...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND FLASH FLOODING POSSIBLE TODAY INTO
TONIGHT...

Today and Tonight: Satellite imagery shows a strong shortwave
trough of lower pressure rounding across northern California and
into Oregon early this morning. This shortwave is being fueled by
a modest jet streak of 100 +kts in the eastern Pacific right along
39N latitude. The shortwave trough will begin to fill a little bit
as it continues to push northward through today; however, with how
strong the vorticity maximum is at this time, a little bit of
weakening is not going to mean a whole lot in the grand scheme of
things. This disturbance is expected to provide more than enough
lift to combined with an ever increasingly juicy air mass across
the region. P-wats will jump up to around an inch, which is way
above normal for this time of year. Dew points are expected to
increase into the mid 50s and 60s across the southeast portion of
the region (Lewiston and Pullman are already hovering at around 55
for a dew point). Mid level lapse rates will also be very steep at
between 7-8 C/KM. Combine all these factor together and the Inland
Northwest is looking at a very active day today.

The morning will start out with an increasing chance for showers
and thunderstorms from south to north. By 5:00 AM, the GFS and NAM
models indicate most unstable CAPEs of up to 500 J/KG across the
extreme southeast portion of the forecast area (about as far north
as the Palouse). These values increase to between 1000-2000 J/KG
by the late morning hours with this instability potentially
pushing all the way up to the Canadian border. The best
instability is expected to be over the eastern half of the
forecast area. Generally northeast of the Okanogan Highlands to
the Northeast Blue Mtns. However, models indicate a secondary
maximum of instability of between 500-1000 J/KG over the east
slopes of the northern Cascades. Synoptic level forcing and
instability will not be a problem through today. What will be a
limiting factor for generating and sustaining strong or even
severe thunderstorms will be shear. Models do not indicate much
0-6 km shear. In general, we are looking at about 15-25 kts of
shear through this layer. The best potential for shear will be
over the east slopes of the northern Cascades and across the
southeast portion of the region. These areas will see the best
potential for severe weather with large hail the main threat with
the storms and strong outflow winds a secondary threat.

And then there is the potential for Flash Flooding. This may be
the biggest threat with the thunderstorms today (and potentially
continuing into tonight). As mentioned previously, the atmosphere
will be VERY juicy. The steering flow will be weak. A diffluent
mid level wind pattern over the region will steer storms to the
northwest over the western basin and in the Cascades and to the
northeast over the ID Panhandle; but, thunderstorms potentially
may only be traveling at about 10 mph as a general storm motion
region wide. That will be slow and storms are expected to be
dumping very heavy rain. The upper level shortwave will also push
across fairly slowly as well since there will not be much of an
upper level jet to push it across the region. This will keep
thunderstorms over the area a bit longer and into the evening.
Even when the thunderstorms begin to wane tonight, models still
show the potential for heavy rain across the northern mountains
with showers overnight. Steeper terrain, urbanized areas and low
spots will be at highest risk for flash flooding. Debris flows
and mud slides will also be possible in the mountains. Recent burn
scars will be of particular concern as well. Confidence is still
too low for a highlight at this time, but will monitor the
situation and readdress the need for a Flash Flood Watch through
the morning hours. /SVH

Tues through Thur morning: The entire mid-week fcst will be
dealing with what's left of the strong short-wave trough passage
Mon, which simply includes a number of minor embedded vort maxes
that accompany the filling, now slow-moving low. The toughest part
of the fcst will be determining how much rain and thunder will
occur along the E Slopes of the Cascades within what appears to be
at least a weak trowal signature wrapping NW into the comma head
of the upper low. This will be most prevalent Wed. We may see a
short break in the pcpn Wed as a mid-level dry slot surges NE
through Oregon and into the Columbia Basin beginning Tues Nt.
However, with no significant agreement amongst models both
spatially and temporally with this feature, there's still
uncertainty as to how much dry air can reach the Basin once the
low occludes fully. Expect some gusty dry slot winds Tues
afternoon, but the thunder should be limited to the Idaho
Panhandle and NE Wa. Wed and Thurs morning will be similar, except
that the thunder threat will expand west across Nrn Wa adjacent to
where the boundary between the dry slot and Cascades comma head
sets up.bz

Thursday through Sunday: A ridge pattern will build into the
region during this period. This will bring a dry, warming trend to
the region. During the afternoon periods, Some weak instability
pockets in the Camas Prairie region and along the Northern
mountains could bring some rain showers with an occasional
lightning strike possible. Outside of that, the period is expected
to be quiet. High temperatures toward the end of the period could
see the upper 90s for the Moses Lake area and upper 70s to 80s for
the rest of the region. /JDC

&&

.AVIATION...
12Z TAFS: A strong shortwave trough of lower pressure will push
across the region today. Good upper level diffluence with
increasing mid level moisture this morning will result in showers
and isolated thunderstorms generally south of a line from KOMK to
KCOE. The bulk of the energy will arrive during the afternoon
hours with thunderstorms becoming more widespread and increasing
in intensity. The strongest thunderstorms in the region are
expected to be across southeast WA and up into the central ID
Panhandle. These thunderstorms will have a better chance of
becoming strong with isolated severe thunderstorms possible;
large hail and torrential downpours will be the primary threats
with strong wind gusts a secondary threat. TAF sites that may be
impacted by these stronger thunderstorms include KGEG, KSFF, KCOE,
KPUW and KLWS with a smaller threat possible at KEAT and KWMH as
well. Torrential rainfall with thunderstorms may also result in
MVFR vis and cigs at times. /SVH
