Area forecast discussion, May 28, 4:56 PM PDT, 15 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Spokane WA 456 PM PDT Sun May 28 2017 .SYNOPSIS... High pressure continues over the Inland Northwest through Tuesday with unseasonably warm temperatures. There is a small chance of thunderstorms in the higher elevations, otherwise expect dry weather. This warm spell will contribute to rises on rivers from the Cascades into north Idaho. A cold front arrives Tuesday night with a better chance of showers and thunderstorms. This will be followed by cooler and unsettled weather for Wednesday into the rest of the week. && .DISCUSSION... Tonight through Wednesday: Warm and dry weather will transition to cooler and unsettled by mid week. The ridge of high pressure will remain over the region, allowing temperatures to warm through Tuesday, which is to be the warmest day of the week and the year thus far. Instability will increase over the mountains with weak orographic lift to weaken cap and enough moisture. Currently the convection is confined to extreme northeast Washington into north Idaho with isolated showers and embedded thunderstorms. Weak convection is possible along the Cascade crest. The activity is expected to decrease early this evening followed by clearing skies. Should see a repeat performance for Monday with slightly warmer temperatures and another round of mountain convection. Possibly a title more activity in the Cascades as a band of mid level moisture is projected to increase over the Cascades. By Tuesday, the upper ridge axis pushes across eastern Washington and a moister southerly flow aloft will spread from the Cascades into the central Basin. Instability will increase by afternoon with the main target over the Cascade given the weaker cap, more moisture. Temperatures should peak by Tuesday afternoon. Then Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, a cold front will push through the region aided by a shortwave trough aloft. A chance of showers will accompany the front across the region Tuesday night. Could see some thunderstorms, but better chances will be early in the evening across north central Washington. Thunder chances decrease overnight, but still there looks to be enough dynamics and mid level lapse rates to keep a mention along the Canadian border. Winds will shift from east to southwest to west with the frontal passage and then breezy winds by Wednesday. Temperatures will cool significantly by Wednesday afternoon, some 10 to 15 degrees. By Wednesday afternoon, the best chance of convection will lie in northeast Washington and the Idaho Panhandle. HYDROLOGY update: The unseasonably warm spell will lead to additional mountain snow melt, increased run off and higher rises on area rivers and streams. The main area of concern will be in north central Washington with the Cascade basins to the Okanogan Basin with a couple rivers nearing flood stage early this week. Anticipate higher flows for much of the week. Check the latest flood products for updates. /rfox. Wednesday night through Sunday...The Inland NW transitions to a more seasonable weather pattern as a cooler...progressive...westerly flow develops. At this point the majority of model solutions show no strong waves entering which should keep most lower elevations on the drier side. Exception is the latest 12z ECMWF model which shows a more substantial trough for next weekend which would result in a broader area of showers. At minimum...weak waves in this zonal flow combined with afternoon heating will lead to a chance of showers each day in the mountains with a slight chance of thunderstorms. JW && .AVIATION... 00Z TAFS: Isolated thunderstorms over the mountains of northeast WA and in the Idaho Panhandle will wane after 03Z this evening. Skies will clear overnight with isolated thunderstorms possible again late Monday afternoon over the higher peaks of the northern Cascades to the northern ID Panhandle. /SVH && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
