Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT
349 PM MDT Thu Jun 6 2019

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure aloft over the Utah today will shift east ahead of
an approaching cold Pacific trough schedule to reach the area
early this weekend. A strong cold front will sweep through the
region Friday into early Saturday, bringing much colder
temperatures to the state this weekend.

&&

.SHORT TERM (THROUGH 00Z MONDAY)...
A trough currently moving inland across the Pacific Northwest as
a shortwave rounds the base of the trough headed for the Northern
Rockies tonight. The next stronger wave continues to propagate the
trough downstream tomorrow before carving the trough over the
Northern Rockies. A trailing wave will cross over southern Idaho
Saturday, with the trough axis finally out of the region Sunday.

Strong height falls remain to our northwest this evening, and
build across Utah tomorrow. Rising heights and warming aloft will
ensue this weekend.

The approach of the Pacific trough axis will elevate the wind
field. This will favor increasing shear across northern Utah
today which when combined with moderately significant instability
due to anomalously high Precipitable Water values, will bring the
potential for strong to severe thunderstorms through this evening.
The greatest threat appears to be damaging winds due to the
increase in wind field, high LCL, and dry boundary layer yielding
elevated DCAPE. This is also indicated by the full suite of
Convective Allowing Models. Copious small hail (potential
accumulation) and lightning are also concerns.

Height falls will support additional shower activity Friday and
Friday evening across the north. Strong synoptic southwest winds
will develop ahead of the cold front due to the combination of
pressure falls, southerly pressure gradient and mixing from aloft.
It will be gusty on the cold side of the boundary as well due to
pressure rises and a stronger northwesterly pressure gradient. The
cold front is at the northwest tip of Utah sunrise Friday, and
into central Utah by sunset Friday. All but far southern and
southeast Utah will be in the cold sector by Saturday morning,
where the boundary should stall for the day. Saturday night, the
boundary will have cleared the entire state to the southeast.

Temperatures which are about 5-10F above today. Much of the state
should be seasonal Friday, and 10-15F below normal this weekend.
Most areas will trend from the 80s/90s down to the 60s/70s by
Saturday.

.LONG TERM (AFTER 00Z MONDAY)...
Behind the exiting trough, high pressure over the west coast is
expected to build over the forecast area beginning Monday, with
the ridge axis moving overhead by midweek. Therefore, the trend
for much of the long term period will be dry conditions and
warming temperatures. By Wednesday/Thursday, maxes are progged to
run 5F or more above seasonal normals.

Global models indicate the ridge will shift east late next week with
the approach of another Pacific storm system, but there remain
differences with regard to timing. GFS is noticeably faster than the
EC, bringing the trough onshore Wednesday and into Utah and
southwest Wyoming by Thursday as opposed to Friday or later in the
EC. The approach of the trough would curb the warming trend and
reintroduce the possibility of primarily diurnal convection. Have
indicated some isolated POPs by day seven to account for the faster
GFS timing.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
With much warmer temperatures, snowmelt will accelerate at high
elevations. Waterways remain running high, cold and swift.
Exercise caution near waterways, and keep a close eye on children
and pets.

&&

.AVIATION...
Expecting thunderstorms either at or near KSLC terminal around
23Z-02Z. Gusty erratic wind expected in the vicinity of storms.
More storms possible in vicinity until around 06Z. Outside of
storms, south winds will persist until a cool front passes through
the terminal 20Z-22Z and shift wind to northwest.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Red Flag Warning in Effect 9A-9P Friday for Zone 497 below 4500
feet.

Breezy with low RH expected for most valleys for the remainder of
this afternoon, and moreso Friday ahead of the next cold front.

ERC values remain below the 50th percentile, but are rising
across the state.

A warming and drying trend continues with increasingly gusty
southwest flow. A cold front will cross the state from northwest
to southeast Friday and Friday night, bringing cooler temperatures
to the region through the weekend.

Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms through this
evening, some may be severe with copious lightning, very
gusty/erratic winds, and accumulating hail. Friday and Friday
night, showers will mainly affect northern Utah.

A warming and drying trend is forecast beginning Sunday and
extending through at least the middle of next week.

&&

.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
UT...Red Flag Warning from 9 AM to 9 PM MDT Friday for UTZ497.

     Severe Thunderstorm Watch until 11 PM MDT this evening for
     UTZ001>011-014-015-517.

bring the threat of damaging winds, accumulating hail and copious
lightning. Stay aware of the threat for dangerous thunderstorms
today.

With much warmer temperatures, snowmelt will accelerate at high
elevations. Waterways remain running high, cold and swift.
Exercise caution near waterways, and keep a close eye on children
and pets.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday

A strong cold front will cross Utah from northwest to southeast
on Friday. Gusty south winds ahead of this front will shift to the
northwest and remain elevated behind the front. Dry and windy
conditions will fuel Red Flag conditions near Dixie Friday.

Much colder temperatures will follow the front for the weekend.
Temperatures Saturday will be 15 to 25 degrees colder than
Friday's readings, with the coldest temperatures across the
northern portion of the outlook area. Temperatures will warm on
Sunday, but still remain well below early June norms.
