NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
117 PM MDT THU JUN 11 2015

.UPDATE...TO EXPAND FLASH FLOOD WATCH.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...TROPICAL MOISTURE REMAINS IN PLACE ACROSS THE AREA
TODAY AS A PACIFIC LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM CROSSES THE GREAT BASIN.
THE AREA WILL SLOWLY DRY FROM THE NORTH FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

&&

.DISCUSSION...HAVE EXPANDED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH TO COVER ALL OF
THE CWA EXCEPT THE WESTERN UINTA MTNS AND SWRN WY. THE AIRMASS IS
DEEPLY MOIST AND EVERY CELL IS LIKELY TO GENERATE HEAVY RAIN. LOCAL
URBAN FLOODING HAS BEEN OCCURRING ALONG THE WASATCH FRONT AND
FELT THE BEST WAY TO CONVEY THE EXPANDED THREAT WAS TO EXPAND THE
WATCH.

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...THE MOIST UPPER TROF OVER THE REGION HAS A
CENTER NEAR LK POWELL THIS MORNING WITH A BROAD DEFORMATION AXIS
ACROSS MAINLY CENTRAL UT. THE HEAVY EARLY MORNING RAIN ACROSS THE
SERN CWA HAS SHIFTED SOUTH AND DISSIPATED BUT SHOWERS REMAIN
ACTIVE ACROSS THE AREA UNDER THE DEFORMATION ZONE.

THE LOW IS FORECAST TO DRIFT EAST TODAY WITH A CYCLONIC NLY FLOW
OVER THE CWA WITH A COUPLE OF WEAK EMBEDDED WAVES ASSISTING
CONVECTION. EXPECT FAIRLY WIDESPREAD DEVELOPMENT ONCE DAYTIME
HEATING KICKS IN WITH THE LEAST COVERAGE OVER THE FAR NWRN CWA.

HEAVY RAIN IS LIKELY WITH JUST ABOUT ANY CELL BUT THE MOST LIKELY
AREAS FOR FLASH FLOODING SHOULD BE MORE OR LESS UNDER THE CURRENT
FLASH FLOOD WATCH. CELL MOVEMENT WILL BE DOWN DRAINAGE ACROSS THE
MOST FLASH FLOOD PRONE AREAS OF FAR SRN UT RAISING THE THREAT
THERE.

ACTIVITY WILL DIMINISH SOMEWHAT TONIGHT BUT CELLS COULD REMAIN
ACTIVE ACROSS THE SOUTH THROUGH TONIGHT. ACTIVITY FRIDAY SHOULD BE
MAINLY EAST OF I-15 AND SOUTH OF I-80 EAST OF SLC AND SOUTH OF
DELTA IN WRN UT WITH A THREAT OF HEAVY RAIN AGAIN MAINLY SOUTH
WITH CELL MOVEMENT ONCE AGAIN DOWN DRAINAGE ACROSS THE FAR SOUTH.

STORMS SHOULD BE LIMITED TO ABOUT THE SERN 1/3 OF THE AREA SAT
WITH A SMALLER THREAT OF HEAVY RAIN AS THE AIRMASS GRADUALLY
DRIES.

UPDATED EARLIER TO ADJUST POPS DOWN ACROSS THE NORTH TODAY AND
RAISE THEM ACROSS W-CENTRAL AND SWRN UT. ALSO MADE SOME
ADJUSTMENTS TO QPF AND SKY COVER. LEFT THE MENTION OF HEAVY RAIN
IN THE GRIDS FOR THE AFTN FOR ALL AREAS.

&&

.AVIATION...SOUTHERLY WINDS AT THE SLC TERMINAL SHOULD SHIFT
TO THE NORTHWEST AROUND 17-18Z. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THIS
EVENING. THE HIGHEST THREAT FOR THE SLC TERMINAL WILL BE BETWEEN
21-03Z. GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS WILL BE THE BIGGEST THREAT
ALTHOUGH BRIEF MVFR CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE IN HEAVY RAINFALL.

&&

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
