CALIF COAST ATTM. WARMING ALOFT AND MOIST LOW LEVEL UPSLOPE KEEPING
LOW CLOUDS TRAPPED AND COOL TEMPERATURES IN THE 40S AND 50S ACROSS
THE EASTERN PLAINS AT THIS TIME. REGIONAL SATELLITE AND RADAR DATA
INDICATING INSOLATION ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN TERRAIN WEST OF THE
FRONT RANGE IS HELPING TO DEVELOP ISOLATED SHOWERS AND A FEW
EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE EARLY AFTERNOON...WITH THE BEST
COVERAGE ACROSS THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL MTS.

TONIGHT...TRANSITORY UPPER RIDGE CONTINUES TO BUILD ACROSS THE STATE
WITH THE PASSING GREAT BASIN EMBEDDED WAVE HELPING TO DEVELOP
CONVECTION THROUGH THE LATE EVENING HOURS...MAINLY OVER THE HIGHER

SATURATED GROUND...THE POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING AND FLOODING IS
THERE. RIVERS AND LARGE CREEKS MAY ALSO EXPERIENCE MORE EROSION
ISSUES. SNOW LEVELS WILL REMAIN HIGH...WITH SEVERAL INCHES OF SNOW
POSSIBLE THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING ABOVE 10 KFT.

IN THE WAKE OF THE SHORTWAVE...SINKING MOTION AND DRYING WILL OCCUR.
MODELS ARE HINTING AT A DRY LINE ACROSS THE FAR EASTERN
PLAINS...WHICH COULD SPARK STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS NEAR THE KANSAS
BORDER. CAPES OVER 1000 J/KG AND 0-6 KM BULK SHEARS ABOVE 50 KNOTS
COULD CAUSE SOME STORM ROTATION. ELSEWHERE ON FRIDAY...ISOLATED
SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL OCCUR ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS FRIDAY AFTERNOON
