Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Riverton WY
153 PM MDT Thu Jul 12 2018

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 130 PM MDT Thu Jul 12 2018

Two distinct areas of thunderstorms are occurring ATTM in Wyoming.
One area is over Southeast Wyoming that appears to be left over
from the weak circulation/vort max now centered over Northeast
Colorado. The other area of storms is associated with trailing
shortwave making its way east across the Northern Rockies asct
with the closed low tracking east across Canada. This area
started out as an area of elevated convection across far Western
Wyoming and has now transitioned into an area of sfc based
convection across an area now extending from the Northern
Lincoln/Sweetwater County border to near Beaver Rim. As this
shortwave makes its way east across the rest of the CWA, it will
encounter higher capes resulting in heavier rainers for the
remainder of the afternoon and evening.

As for Friday, only isold convection is expected over
Natrona/Johnson Counties including the Big Horn Mtns as the
shortwave exits east but the westerly steering flow remaining
difluent. Friday will be warmer with highs in the low 90s east of
the divide and low 80s in the far west valleys.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday)
Issued at 130 PM MDT Thu Jul 12 2018

Weak west flow aloft will dominate the weather pattern
through the extended with a series of weak cold fronts
coming south out of Montana as short wave troughs move
east across southern Canada and Montana brushing
northern Wyoming.  With time the timing of these troughs
and cold fronts diverge in the extended models with
significant differences by Wednesday and Thursday.
Friday night and Saturday will be dry and warmer with
a cold front cooling temperatures 10 to 15 degrees on
Sunday with increasing chances of showers and
thunderstorms.  Some showers and thunderstorms will be
a threat Monday through Wednesday with gradual warming
expected.
