AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
345 PM MDT WED JUL 8 2015

.SYNOPSIS...ABUNDANT MOISTURE ALONG WITH WEAK WEATHER DISTURBANCES
MOVING THROUGH THE REGION WILL GENERATE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGH THIS EVENING. A DRIER SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW DEVELOPS FOR
TOMORROW. A BROAD UPPER LOW WILL LIFT THROUGH THE WESTERN GREAT
BASIN LATE IN THE WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF
UTAH HAVE EITHER MOSTLY DIMINISHED OR MOVED OUT OF THE AREA. AN
AREA OF CLEARING IS MOVING OVER THE SALT LAKE CITY AREA ALLOWING
FOR SOME WARMING AHEAD OF THE NEXT ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS. CENTRAL
AND SOUTHERN UTAH ALREADY ACTIVE THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL CONTINUE
TO SEE THIS MOVE NORTH THROUGH THE EVENING. THURSDAY WILL BE A BIT
DRIER AS SOME DRIER AIR MOVES INTO THE REGION. STILL EXPECT SOME
THUNDERSTORMS BUT GUSTY WINDS WILL DEFINITELY BE MORE LIKELY.
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WILL REMAIN MOSTLY DRY ACROSS MUCH OF THE
STATE. BY MONDAY...THE MONSOON MOISTURE STARTS TO MAKE ITS RETURN
TO THE REGION AS HIGH PRESSURE STARTS TO PUSH BACK INTO THE AREA
OVER THE FOUR CORNERS REGION. MODELS ARE INDICATING THIS TREND TO
CONTINUE FOR MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. AS A RESULT...DID ADD A MENTION OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH WEDNESDAY OF NEXT WEEK. WITH NO
LARGE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE IN PLACE THROUGH THE NEXT WEEK...DO
NOT EXPECT EXTREMELY HOT TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION...SHOWER ACTIVITY NEAR THE SLC TERMINAL HAS DECREASED
SIGNIFICANTLY AS OF 21Z...BUT COULD INCREASE AGAIN BETWEEN 23Z AND
03Z...WITH A 40 PERCENT CHANCE THAT A SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM IMPACTS
THE TERMINAL. LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS AT THE TERMINAL AS OF 21Z ARE
EXPECTED TO INCREASE FROM THE NORTH BETWEEN 22Z AND 00Z...BEFORE
SWITCHING BACK TO THE SOUTHEAST BETWEEN 02Z AND 04Z.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE AREA SHIFTS SLOWLY EAST
AS AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE MOVES THROUGH THE WESTERN GREAT
BASIN OVER THE COUPLE OF DAYS. THIS ALLOWS DRIER AIR TO SPREAD
INTO UTAH THURSDAY WITH FURTHER DRYING ANTICIPATED INTO THE START
OF THE WEEKEND. THE DRIER AIR WILL BE USHERED INTO THE REGION ON
INCREASING SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. THIS WILL RESULT IN AN INCREASE
IN SOUTH-SOUTHWEST WINDS ON THURSDAY ACROSS MUCH OF THE STATE
WITH A FURTHER BUMP EXPECTED ON FRIDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN THE
POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS THURSDAY
INTO SATURDAY. HOWEVER...CONDITIONS APPEAR TO BE MARGINAL AND LIMITED
IN COVERAGE.

AS DRY AIR SPREADS INTO THE REGION THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE WILL
BECOME MORE ISOLATED ON THURSDAY...THEN CONFINED TO NORTHERN UTAH
ON FRIDAY...BEFORE DIMINISHING STATEWIDE FOR THE START OF THE
WEEKEND.
