DISTURBANCE CURRENTLY MOVING INTO NERN WA WILL LIKELY STAY JUST
NORTH OF OUR WITH JUST A GLANCING BLOW OF MOISTURE AND LIMITED MTN
SHOWER CHANCES TONIGHT. LITTLE FURTHER NORTH THAN MODELS INDICATED
YESTERDAY. A WEAK RIPPLE AND LIMITED MOISTURE IS ALSO CLIPPING THE
FAR SRN AREAS WITH SOME WEAK CONVECTION OFF THE UINTAS EXPECTED BUT
ANY SHOWERS SHOULD STAY JUST SOUTH OF OUR SWEETWATER COUNTY BORDER.
OTHERWISE...CLEAR OR MOSTLY CLEAR AND ANOTHER COOL TO COLD NIGHT
WITH DRY LOW LEVELS AND A GENERALLY CLEAR SKY FOR MOST AREAS. WEAK
FRONTAL BOUNDARY DROPS DOWN EAST OF THE DIVIDE TONIGHT BEHIND THIS
SHORTWAVE PASSING TO THE NORTH BUT NOT MUCH WITH IT EXCEPT FOR SOME
N-NE WIND AND A LITTLE HIGHER NIGHTTIME RH. SUNNY AND SEASONABLE
AGAIN TUESDAY WITH UPPER 60S AND 70S FOR MOST OF THE LOWER
ELEVATIONS WITH 50S AND 60S IN THE MOUNTAINS.

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY

BEGINNING OF FCST...FA UNDER DRY NW FLOW W/ EMBEDDED SW ALREADY THRU
AND OFF INTO CNTRL PLAINS. THRU MOST OF THE WORK WEEK...THE FA WILL
STAY UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF A LARGE DRY RIDGE AND NW FLOW WITH
LITTLE IN THE WAY OF SIGNIFICANT MOISTURE OR FORCING ABLE TO GET
INTO THE REGION EXCEPT FOR A CLOSE BRUSH FROM THE NORTH LATER
THURSDAY INTO FRI MORNING...WITH THE BIG HORN MOUNTAINS REALLY THE
ONLY POSSIBLE AREA ABLE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF MEAGER MOISTURE AND
CAPPING. OTHERWISE...PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT BETWEEN MR MDLS THRU AT
LEAST SAT...W/ MEAN POSITION OF THE RIDGE AXIS CENTER REMAINING OVR
THE GREAT BASIN...KEEPING THE NRN BRANCH OF THE STORM TRACK MOSTLY
WELL TO THE N. AFTER THAT...THE MDLS BEGIN TO DEVIATE...MAINLY IN
LATITUDINAL POSITION OF THE WAVES...WITH MAJOR TIMING ISSUES NOT
ARISING UNTIL AFTER THIS FCST PERIOD. SAT...A COUPLE OF VIGOROUS UPR
LVL SYSTEMS AND ASSOCIATED FRONTS WILL PUSH INTO THE CONUS FROM
CANADA...FIRST AMPLIFYING THE TROF ACROSS THE ERN CONUS...WITH A
SECONDARY SYSTEM ON ITS HEALS...MOVING THE WRN CONUS RIDGE WWD WHILE
A BROAD TROF DESCENDS INTO THE NRN CONUS. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR RENEWED
INTRUSIONS OF COLDER AIR FROM THE NORTH...WITH BETTER CHANCES FOR
INCREASED BAROCLINICITY AND BETTER CHANCES FOR CYCLONE AND FRONTAL
DEVELOPMENT AND MOVEMENT. ATTM...IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE SMALL
CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION NEAR THE BORDER AREA WITH MT AND POINTS
