AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PHOENIX AZ
1228 PM MST FRI DEC 25 2015

.UPDATE...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION TODAY...USHERING IN COOLER
TEMPERATURES TO THE AREA ALONG WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION
EAST OF PHOENIX. A SECONDARY TROUGH WILL BRING WINDY CONDITIONS TO
THE LOWER COLORADO RIVER VALLEY ON SATURDAY...FOLLOWED BY EVEN COLDER
TEMPERATURES SUNDAY AND MONDAY. SOME LOCATIONS COULD SEE SUB-FREEZING
TEMPERATURES SUNDAY AND MONDAY MORNINGS BEFORE TEMPERATURES GRADUALLY
MODERATE TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
DRY AIR CONTINUES TO WORK INTO THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST WITH PWATS
FORECAST TO DROP FROM AROUND 0.40 INCHES CURRENTLY OVER SOUTH-CENTRAL
ARIZONA TO LESS THAN 0.25 INCHES BY THE END OF TODAY. LINGERING SNOW
SHOWERS OVER CENTRAL ARIZONA WILL MAINLY STAY OUT OF OUR CWA...BUT WE
MAY SEE SOME REDEVELOPMENT OVER GILA COUNTY LATER THIS MORNING INTO
THE AFTERNOON AS A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY PASSES THROUGH. SNOW LEVELS
WILL START OUT AROUND 6500 FT THIS MORNING AND THEN DROP TO 5000 FT
BY THE END OF THIS AFTERNOON. IF ANY SHOWERS DO DEVELOP...THEY
SHOULD BE CONFINED TO GILA COUNTY AND BE LIGHT IN NATURE. I TRIMMED
BACK POPS QUITE A BIT THROUGH 18Z THIS MORNING AND MADE SOME MINOR
ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE AFTERNOON POPS...PUSHING OUR SLIGHT CHANCES
FURTHER TO THE EAST AND GOING LESS THAN 10 POPS ACROSS ALL OF THE
DESERTS. WINDS WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY BREEZY THIS AFTERNOON ONCE
THE BOUNDARY PASSES THROUGH...BUT ONLY EXPECTING GUSTS TO AROUND
20-25 MPH. THE STRONG WINDS WILL COME ON SATURDAY.

&&

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
EARLY MORNING WATER VAPOR IMAGERY REVEALS LONGWAVE TROUGHING ACROSS
MUCH OF THE WESTERN CONUS...WITH A SHORTWAVE NEAR LAS VEGAS FOLLOWED
BY A SECONDARY SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER OREGON AS OF 09Z. REGIONAL
RADAR MOSAIC IS INDICATING SOME DEVELOPING PRECIPITATION ACROSS
PORTIONS OF NORTHERN ARIZONA...BUT THE LOWER DESERTS REMAIN DRY.
CLOUD COVER HAS ACTUALLY THINNED OUT A BIT AHEAD OF THIS INITIAL
TROUGH AND THIS HAS ALLOWED TEMPERATURES TO FALL INTO THE MID 40S TO
LOWER 50S.

LOOKING AT A COUPLE OF FORECAST CONCERNS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. IN
THE VERY SHORT TERM...THE TROUGH NEAR LAS VEGAS WILL DIVE SOUTH AND
MOVE THROUGH THE REGION THIS MORNING...EXITING THE AREA AND MOVING
INTO NEW MEXICO AROUND 18Z. LIMITED MOISTURE AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM
WILL PRECLUDE WIDESPREAD SHOWER DEVELOPMENT /ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE
DESERTS/...HOWEVER THE MOUNTAINS EAST OF PHOENIX COULD SEE A FEW
SHOWERS THIS MORNING. WITH SNOW LEVELS GRADUALLY FALLING THROUGH THE
DAY...SOME OF THE HIGHER PEAKS ABOVE 5000FT COULD SEE VERY LIGHT SNOW
ACCUMS BUT NO TRAVEL IMPACTS ARE ANTICIPATED. OUTSIDE OF THOSE
AREAS...POPS WILL REMAIN AT OR BELOW 10 PERCENT. BLENDED CONSENSUS
GUIDANCE AND NAEFS ARE IN AGREEMENT WITH THESE NUMBERS AND THE
INHERITED FORECAST WAS ONLY MODIFIED SLIGHTLY.

NEXT CONCERN IS THE SECONDARY TROUGH THAT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA
ON SATURDAY. COLD TEMPERATURES ALOFT COULD SUGGEST INSTABILITY
SHOWERS ACROSS THE AREA...BUT BY TOMORROW WHAT LITTLE MOISTURE WE HAD
TO WORK WITH WILL BE SHIFTED INTO NEW MEXICO. CAN'T RULE OUT A STRAY
SHOWER OR TWO IN THE MOUNTAINS EAST OF PHOENIX GIVEN UPSLOPE FORCING
BUT WIDESPREAD WRAP-AROUND PRECIP DOESN'T LOOK TOO PLAUSIBLE GIVEN
MODEST DRY ADVECTION AND LIMITED ISENTROPIC ASCENT. WHAT THIS TROUGH
WILL DO IS BRING STRONG WINDS TO AREAS ALONG THE LOWER COLORADO RIVER
AND WIND ADVISORIES WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT. IN ADDITION...THIS TROUGH
WILL BRING MUCH COLDER TEMPERATURES TO THE REGION. AFTERNOON HIGHS ON
SUNDAY WILL BARELY BREAK OUT OF THE MID 50S /APPROX 10 DEGREES BELOW
NORMAL FOR LATE DECEMBER/.

THIRD ON THE LIST OF CONCERNS IS THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUB-FREEZING
TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY AND MONDAY MORNINGS. BLENDED BIAS
CORRECTED GUIDANCE SUGGESTS SOME OF THE NORMALLY COLDER OUTLYING
AREAS /NW PINAL COUNTY...PORTIONS OF LA PAZ COUNTY/ COULD APPROACH
FREEZE WARNING CRITERIA SUNDAY AND MONDAY MORNINGS...WHILE RAW
GUIDANCE IS A FEW DEGREES WARMER. LOOKING AT MODEL RH FIELDS SUGGESTS
THERE WILL BE AT LEAST SOME DEGREE OF HIGH CLOUD COVER TO CONTEND
WITH SUNDAY MORNING AND AGAIN ON MONDAY. CONFIDENCE IS NOT QUITE
HIGH ENOUGH TO GO WITH A FREEZE WATCH AT THIS POINT BUT IT LOOKS
LIKE THE BEST CANDIDATE FOR FREEZING TEMPS WILL BE MONDAY MORNING VS.
SUNDAY MORNING. WILL CONTINUE TO HIT THE MESSAGING VIA SOCIAL MEDIA
AND SPS WHILE REFINING THE FORECAST NUMBERS OVER THE NEXT DAY.

ANOTHER SHORTWAVE IS FORECAST TO MOVE FROM THE PAC NW THROUGH THE
GREAT BASIN AND INTO ARIZONA ON TUESDAY. NOT THE BEST TRAJECTORY IN
TERMS OF MOISTURE ADVECTION AND GFS/GEFS IVT IS ALSO UNIMPRESSIVE.
ASIDE FROM STEEPENING MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND OROGRAPHIC
FORCING...DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE MUCH IN THE WAY OF SIGNIFICANT PRECIP
POTENTIAL WITH THIS SYSTEM. IF ANYTHING IT WILL SIMPLY KEEP BELOW
NORMAL TEMPERATURES IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH AT LEAST MID
WEEK. SOME WARMING IS FORECAST LATE IN THE FORECAST PERIOD TOWARD
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AS WEAK RIDGING BEGINS TO TAKE SHAPE.

&&

.AVIATION...
SOUTH-CENTRAL ARIZONA INCLUDING KPHX...KIWA...AND KSDL...
WESTERLY FLOW WILL BE ENHANCED BEHIND A COLD FRONT THIS AFTERNOON.
SUSTAINED WINDS AROUND 10 KT ARE EXPECTED...BEFORE SUBSIDING AFTER
SUNSET. CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY EXISTS AS TO WHETHER AN EASTERLY
DRAINAGE FLOW WILL DEVELOP OVERNIGHT AT KPHX...THOUGH LATEST TAFS
REFLECT A PERSISTENT WESTERLY FLOW AROUND 5 KT CONTINUING THROUGH
MID-MORNING SATURDAY. THEREAFTER...STRONGER NORTHERLY CROSSWINDS WILL
DEVELOP DURING THE AFTERNOON...LIKELY GUSTING TO 20 TO 25 KT.

SOUTHEAST CALIFORNIA AND SOUTHWEST ARIZONA INCLUDING KIPL AND
KBLH...
WINDS BEHIND A COLD FRONT WILL STRENGTHEN OVERNIGHT DOWN THE CO RIVER
VALLEY. STRONGEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED SATURDAY AFTERNOON...WITH GUSTS
POTENTIALLY REACHING 40 TO 45 KT AT KBLH AND 30 TO 35 KT AT KIPL.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...
MUCH LESS WIND ALONG WITH DRIER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED AREA-WIDE
SUNDAY AS THE LOW SHIFTS EAST OVER NEW MEXICO AND TEXAS. MUCH DRIER
AIR WILL SPREAD INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE DEPARTING LOW...MINIMUM
HUMIDITY VALUES DROPPING BACK INTO THE TEENS OVER MUCH OF SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA AND THE SOUTHWEST ARIZONA DESERTS INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK...WITH HIGHER VALUES HANGING ON ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF
SOUTHERN GILA COUNTY. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE WELL BELOW SEASONAL
NORMALS THROUGH THE PERIOD.

OPTIMAL CONDITIONS FOR COLD TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST FOR SUNDAY AND
MONDAY MORNINGS WHICH MAY RESULT SOME OF THE OUTER SUBURBS IN THE
PHOENIX METRO DIPPING DOWN TO AROUND FREEZING. SIMILAR READINGS ARE
FORECAST IN YUMA...BLYTHE...EL CENTRO...PARKER...AND QUARTZSITE
MONDAY MORNING.

THINGS TO CONSIDER DURING COLD EPISODES ARE...COVER SENSITIVE
