Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT
432 AM MDT Sat Sep 28 2019

.SYNOPSIS...A deep and cold trough will set up over the Great
Basin this weekend. Widespread precipitation and much cooler
temperatures will impact northern Utah and southwest Wyoming,
with windy conditions expected across the southern and eastern
Utah.

&&

.SHORT TERM (Through 00Z Wednesday)...The much anticipated upper
level trough which will bring much cooler and unsettled weather to
the region is currently digging into the Pacific Northwest. The
frontal boundary associated with a passing wave Friday stalled
across the southern Wasatch Front and continues to induce showers
across the central and southern Wasatch Front, while the main
low level baroclinic zone remains displaced to the northwest
across far northwest Utah. As the upstream trough continues to
deepen across the western CONUS over the next 12-24 hours, this
baroclinic zone will serve as a focus for moderate to heavy
precipitation across northern Utah. Have maintained categorical
PoPs across most of northern Utah today through tonight however
the heaviest precip will likely remain displaced a bit west of the
Wasatch Front into this evening.

South of the front, a combination of isallobaric forcing and
mixing strong winds aloft to the surface should allow for windy
to very windy conditions across much of central and southern Utah
this afternoon and evening. Have maintained the going wind
headlines across these areas.

A potent shortwave trough is still forecast to eject across the
forecast area late tonight through Sunday, pushing much colder air
into northern and central Utah, and dropping snow levels below
6000 feet Sunday morning. This will also maintain fairly
widespread precipitation across the northern third of the forecast
area through Sunday morning before tapering to showers in the
afternoon. With the much colder air moving in, a hard freeze is
possible both Sunday and Monday nights across outlying areas
including the Cache Valley and many western valleys, and may
require headlines with later forecast packages.

.LONG TERM (After 00z Wednesday)...The upper level low will
continue to pull away from the area Tuesday evening. Shortwave
ridging will build into the area in its wake. A splitting trough
will cross the Interior West Saturday before another shortwave
ridge builds into the area for the latter half of the weekend.
This trough may bring a limited threat of precipitation to
northern Utah...but otherwise the long term portion of the
forecast is expected to be dry with gradually warming
temperatures.

&&

.AVIATION...Predominantly VFR conditions are expected at KSLC
through much of the day with occasional rain showers dropping
CIGS below 5000 feet. Winds are expected to become northwesterly
after 16Z, however there is a 40 percent chance this wind shift is
delayed until after 19Z. MVFR conditions in moderate to heavy
rainfall are expected later in the TAF period.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...A cold front stalled across northern Utah will
remain in place today, maintaining showers and perhaps isolated
thunderstorms this afternoon through tonight. Meanwhile further
south, strong and gusty south to southwest winds can be expected
across central and southern Utah this afternoon and evening. The
main storm system will cross the area overnight through Sunday
morning dropping snow levels down below 6000 feet at times
across northern Utah. A cool but try pattern is expected across
the area through at least the first half of next week.

&&

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
UT...Fire Weather Watch from Sunday afternoon through Sunday evening
     for UTZ489-494-497-498.

     Wind Advisory from noon today to 10 PM MDT Sunday for UTZ013-020-
     021.

     High Wind Warning from noon today to 10 PM MDT this evening for
     UTZ015-016.

     Wind Advisory from noon today to 10 PM MDT this evening for
     UTZ019.

WY...None.
