Area forecast discussion, Jul 1, 10:26 AM MDT, 4 hours 4 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT
1026 AM MDT Sun Jul 1 2018
.SYNOPSIS...A warming trend can be expected through Monday aided by
increasing southwesterly flow aloft. A weak cold front is expected
to shift into northern Utah Monday evening through Tuesday night.
High pressure will become the dominant feature for the late week
period allowing the warming trend to continue.
&&
.DISCUSSION...Morning water vapor and H5 analysis indicate quite a
benign pattern set up across the eastern Great Basin for the near
term, with an increasingly stable (though slightly cyclonic)
northwesterly flow aloft in place. Height trends locally continue
to slowly build, and with and increasingly drying/modifying
airmass in place, clear skies have and will continue to prevail
through tonight, while temps will climb to near seasonal levels.
In the short term, the primary focus will shift to later tomorrow
through Tuesday, this in advance of the next northern branch
trough poised to amplify south into the northern Great Basin
region. In advance of this, flow aloft will trend to back over the
next 24 hours, with a net increasing trend of H7 flow beginning
Monday afternoon. Coincident, the attendant cold front/mid level
baroclinic zone on the downstream side of the trough will make a
push into far northern Utah during the evening hours prior to
settling in over north-central Utah by Tuesday morning. Continue
to see the potential of modest mid level moisture pooling along
this baroclinic zone, and with subtle forcing can't rule out
isolated high based/shallow topped convection across far northern
Utah, and the possibility of localized microbursts late evening
into the middle of the night. Similar on Tuesday afternoon as the
boundary will remain near stalled through that time. This said,
sensibly for most areas across the north a net increase in cloud
cover will likely be more notable as lapse rates/instability will
remain meager at best. Temp trends will continue to climb.
No updates needed this morning as the going forecast remains on
track. Previous discussion below.
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...By Wednesday, the Pacific Northwest trough
is expected to have lifted northward over the back side of the
ridge and out of the area. This will allow the ridge to build back
westward, becoming centered over Utah Friday through the upcoming
weekend. This will allow for rather warm temperatures for much of
the extended period, with maxes running 10F or more above
seasonal normals.
GFS indicates some weakening of the ridge Sunday into Monday as a
trough moves over the top of it. This would cool temperatures
slightly, but would also allow some moisture to move into southern
Utah for early next week. Latest EC keeps the ridge strong over the
area through day seven, resulting in a drier and warmer pattern.
Have indicated slightly cooler temps for Sunday and added isolated
POPs to account for the GFS solution.
&&
.AVIATION...Winds at the SLC terminal are expected to switch to the
northwest around 18-20Z. VFR conditions will prevail under sunny
skies.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...Temperatures will warm back up again across the fire
districts today through tomorrow while dry conditions persist.
Southwest winds will begin to increase tomorrow and become stronger
on Tuesday ahead of an approaching trough. These winds will bring a
potential for hazardous fire weather conditions to portions of
central and southern Utah. A Fire Weather Watch remains in place for
Monday and Tuesday. Winds could end up more marginal for some of the
zones in the watch for Monday, but more favorable for Tuesday.
Meanwhile, the aforementioned trough will push a shallow cold front
into northern Utah Monday evening. A few mostly dry thunderstorms
could develop along this boundary Monday night through Tuesday
night, which could result in new fire starts along with gusty and
erratic winds.
The airmass will trend drier again Wednesday through late week while
hot temperatures settle into the area.

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
