Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Riverton WY
1222 PM MDT Fri Jun 1 2018

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Sunday Night)
Issued at 230 AM MDT Fri Jun 1 2018

An approaching trough over the Great Basin will produce
showers over the west this morning. Instability will increase
this afternoon resulting in another round of afternoon and evening
thunderstorms over Western Wyoming that will spread east of the
divide, mainly in Northern Wyoming later today through tonight.
The strongest thunderstorms will likely occur over Johnson County
where the highest capes are progged. This Colder air asct with the
trough will already be filtering into Western Wyoming this
morning with rain becoming snow at and above 8000 feet in the
Northern Mountains including the Absaroka Mtns, YNP, and the
Tetons/Gros Ventre Range where h7 temps will drop to -3C where a
couple of inches of snow will fall. Around 2 inches of snow will
likely fall above 9500 feet in the mountains to the south
including the Wind River Mtns as well as the Salt River and
Wyoming ranges. This on and off high elevation snow will persist
through this evening. The precip over Northern Wyoming will
dissipate after midnight tonight. in the meantime, southwest
winds of 25 to 35 mph with some gusts of 45 to 50 mph will occur
from RKS to CPR and southern Johnson County for a couple of hours
ahead of the approaching asct sfc cold front, ushering in dry air
to those areas. This will result in a dry line that will enhance
thunderstorm activity in our northeast zones today. Mos guidance
indicates 30 knot winds for Casper for a 3 hour period today ahead
of the front around mid day today and 30 knot post frontal winds
for Buffalo this afternoon from the sharp post frontal sfc
pressure rises.

Behind the exiting front, strong subsidence and confluent flow
will occur as the next flat ridge builds in from the west.
Expect low elevation highs in the 60s west and 70s east Saturday,
then warming to the 70s west and 80s east by Sunday.

.LONG TERM...(Monday through Friday)
Issued at 230 AM MDT Fri Jun 1 2018

Medium range period has a couple passing shortwaves to the north
before a very warm upper high develops over the NM/north TX area
the second half of next week. These passing waves Monday and
Tuesday will aid in a few higher elevation showers/tstms across
the north early in the week with a shallow front following each
front late Monday night/Tue morning and again Tuesday night/Wed
morning in the north. Other than a few degrees of cooling across
the north Tue/Wed compared to Monday and a little north wind,
these fronts will have little effect. The warm ridge will then
start to develop to our south with temperatures a warm/very warm
and generally dry period. However, it does look there will be
disturbances riding around the periphery of this ridge so a few
late day/evening storms are quite possible late in the week.
Usually in this type of pattern any convection will be along on of
these disturbances or late in the day/evening as the mid level
temps cool and the cap is broke towards sunset leading to a few
nocturnal storms. Nothing major but enough to have isold storms in
and near the higher terrain and just down wind. Overall though
just a warm and dry period to start early June.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday afternoon)
Issued at 1153 AM MDT Fri Jun 1 2018

West of the Continental Divide...KJAC/KBPI/KPNA/KRKS

Scattered showers will occur through about 19Z at KBPI and will
linger at KJAC until 02Z. Have kept in a mention of 5SM for fog at
KJAC until around 14Z due to previous showers in vicinity of the

the 02Z-03Z time frame tonight. Otherwise, VFR conditions and
lighter winds will be prevalent through the rest of the forecast
period.

East of the Continental Divide...KCPR/KCOD/KRIW/KLND/KWRL

Will continue with the trending that showers/isolated storms will
continue at KLND, KWRL and KCOD between 20Z and 01Z tonight. Winds

time frame tonight, with lighter winds and VFR conditions expected
through the end of the forecast period.

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued AT 230 AM MDT Fri Jun 1 2018

As a Pacific low pressure trough moves east, more showers and
thunderstorms will develop over the area again today and this
evening. In Western Wyoming, the mountains up north will likely
see a couple of inches of snow above 8000 feet and above 9500
feet farther south during this time frame. Areas of strong gusty
southwest winds will remain a threat across the south. Colder air
will move in Saturday with northwest winds and decreasing showers
and thunderstorms. Sunday is expected to be dry and warmer.
Generally mixing heights and transport winds will combine for Very
good or better smoke dispersal in the afternoons. Local areas
with heavy precipitation will experience poor smoke dispersal.
