Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT
356 PM MDT Tue Jul 17 2018

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure will strengthen for the mid-week period,
bringing a drying trend to the state. Moisture will slowly creep
north late in the week into the weekend.

&&

.SHORT TERM (Through 06Z Saturday)...The jet on the backside of
the trough that moved across northern Utah last night is still
creating some lift across far northern Utah this afternoon.
However, moisture is becoming less available so believe isolated
showers and thunderstorms will end before sunset. Farther east and
south in the deeper moisture thunderstorms are firing up once
again this afternoon and are tracking more southeast today vs
south or southwest which has been problematic for flash flooding
since many tributaries are oriented north to south over the
western half of Kane County and Washington County.

There does not appear to be any relief in the deep moisture over
the south the next few days but the flow does become nearly
stagnant Wednesday into Thursday as the center of the 500mb ridge
moves overhead. This may inhibit the strength of the thunderstorms
as they will be vertically stacked, meaning the updraft ends up
being directly under the downdraft once it forms which will kill
the updraft. These are called pulse storms because they don't last
long. By late Thursday the flow aloft becomes more southeast
aloft across southwest Utah as the ridge moves to the 4 corners
region and farther east. This ridge position opens the door for
monsoonal moisture to stream northward Friday and beyond.

The hottest temperatures are expected across northern Utah
Wednesday as the 700mb temps flirt with 17-18C. The 700mb temps
will tend to lower a tad Thursday and Friday as more moisture
enters the picture. Southern Utah will have nearly similar
temperatures each day and 700mb temps remain nearly constant.

.LONG TERM (After 06Z Saturday)...With the ridge axis firmly in
place over Texas by Saturday morning, monsoonal moisture continues
to stream northward into the forecast area over the weekend. While
GFS PWAT values are not as impressive as past runs, much of the area
remains in 0.75 to 1 inch into Monday. Maintaining confidence in
convective activity throughout the weekend, with temps a bit above
seasonal norms.

Global models differing in extent of drying early in the workweek,
as such have left slight chance/chance of PoPs into Day 7. Expecting
temps to be riding along seasonal norms for the north, a bit above
in the south.

&&

.AVIATION...Conditions at the KSLC terminal are expected to remain
at VFR through the evening. North winds in place are expected to
shift to the south between 03-04z, with a small chance that nearby
showers create gusty erratic winds before 03z.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms will
occur over the eastern and southern portions of fire district this
evening and then mainly over southern Utah Wednesday and Thursday.
Moisture will spread northward Friday into northern Utah and there
could be dry lightning along the leading edge of this moisture,
but looks to be brief if it does occur. Elevated RH values will
remain over the south through the forecast period. However, min
RH values have dropped into the lower teens across northwest deserts
today and this should spread into the northern portions of the
western valleys Wednesday and possibly into Thursday. Rh values
are expected to come up through the weekend.

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
UT...None.
WY...None.
