area should be prepared for sudden gusty cross winds which can
make driving difficult.

The strong winds will create dangerous boating conditions on area
lakes. These winds will create very choppy water and generate
large waves which could capsize or swamp small craft. For your
personal safety, operators of small craft are urged to postpone
their outings until the winds subside.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Salt Lake City, UT wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Apr 15, 10:12 AM MDT, 5 hours 30 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 15, 10:12 AM MDT, 5 hours 30 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT
1012 AM MDT Sun Apr 15 2018

.SYNOPSIS...A spring storm will impact the region early in the
week. The associated cold front will reach northwest Utah late
tonight, then track across the area late Monday through early
Tuesday. High pressure will return midweek, followed by the next
storm system late in the week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Warm high pressure has settled over Utah and
southwest Wyoming this morning. Widespread mid and high level
cloud cover over the area helped keep overnight temperatures warm,
but will also limit afternoon heating a bit. All of this adds up
to a mostly cloudy day with temperatures 5-15 degrees above mid-
April normals, with breezy southerly winds possible late in the
day, especially in western Utah.

The big focus today will be the Pacific trough currently pushing
into the west coast, which will move into the Great Basin
overnight. The biggest impact with this storm for Utah is expected
to be strong, gusty winds ahead of the front, likely peaking
Monday afternoon. Once the cold front finally pushes into northern
and central Utah late Monday into Tuesday, it should lower snow
levels down to the valley floors, with accumulating snow possible
Tuesday morning. Will take a close look at the wind headlines
today, with widespread advisories and/or warnings possible.

Updated the forecast earlier today to include a slight chance of
showers in the mountains of far northern Utah, with light showers
currently traveling near the Utah/Idaho border. No further updates
are currently anticipated.

&&

.AVIATION...Southerly surface winds at the SLC terminal are expected
to continue through the day. There is a 30 percent chance winds will
become light and variable or even a light northwest in the 22-01z
window.

&&

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
UT...High Wind Watch from Monday morning through Monday evening for
     UTZ005-015-016.

     High Wind Watch from Monday morning through Monday evening for

Warm temperatures and increasing south winds are expected across
mainly western Utah today. South winds will increase overnight
ahead of a strong cold front settling into extreme northwest Utah
late tonight.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday

Very strong southerly winds will develop across most of western
Utah during the day Monday. Gusts approaching 60 mph are expected
at the peak of these strong winds during the afternoon through
early evening hours. These strong south winds will shift to the
northwest and decrease behind a cold front as it sweeps east
across the outlook area late Monday afternoon through early
Tuesday.

Showers and isolated thunderstorms will exist along and behind the
cold front Monday afternoon through Tuesday morning. The strongest
showers and thunderstorms will be confined to northwest Utah late
Monday afternoon and evening. Much colder temperatures will trail
the cold front, with highs Monday and Tuesday running 10 to 20
degrees below readings on Sunday.

High pressure will return Wednesday ahead of the next Pacific
storm system scheduled to arrive for Thursday and Friday. This
storm will move slowly through the area and will bring colder
temperatures again to the outlook area. Most of the precipitation
with this next storm will be confined to southern, central, and
eastern Utah through Friday evening.
