Area forecast discussion, Oct 12, 11:59 PM MDT, 4 hours 4 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cheyenne WY
1159 PM MDT Mon Oct 12 2020
.UPDATE...
Issued at 641 PM MDT Mon Oct 12 2020
Updated the grids to allow the High Wind Warning for part of the
counties to expire, and for the expiration of the Red Flag Warning
for this afternoon.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday)
Issued at 206 PM MDT Mon Oct 12 2020
The main concern with this forecast package will be the Red Flag
conditions and high wind potential.
Latest water vapor loop was showing lots of mountain wave activity
across the area which is resulting in a very windy day. There is
also a hint of subtle shortwave moving through central Wyoming which
is resulting in some cloud cover, but not much in the way of
precipitation according the RIW radar loop. We are a bit concerned
that high winds in Arlington and Bordeaux may last a bit longer into
the evening based a decent height gradients. However, we will see
some upper level ridging building into the northern Plains/Rockies
this evening which will tend to weaken the gradients. As a result,
we are keeping the High Wind Warning going in the Arlington area
through 06z. The rest of forecast zones we will let the High Wind
Warning expire at 00Z.
Weak upper level ridging will build into the area tomorrow which
will provide a bit milder day with lots of sunshine. This will
induce good mixing which will favor a very dry air mass and breezy
conditions.
Digging jet energy combined with a deepening shortwave across the
northern Plains will build south across the area Tuesday night and
Wednesday. This will cause another round of high winds for the area.
The main question will be the timing of the back door cold front. If
this front moves through the Nebraska panhandle quicker then it may
stunt the high wind potential in that area.
Although, confidence is growing for the high wind potential across
southeast Wyoming. In fact, winds may really begin to ramp up across
Arlington and Bordeaux late Tuesday night. There is some question on
how much mountain wave activity will be in place on Tuesday night
which may spill into the Wyoming Plains. Our confidence is pretty
low at this point on Tuesday night, but our confidence does begin to
boost for the Wyoming Plains through the day on Wednesday when we
will see deeper mixing, steep lapse rates and adiabatic downslope
flow before the frontal passage. Therefore, we went ahead and issued
a High Wind Watch from 03Z-21Z on Wednesday. High temperatures will
occur Wednesday morning in the 50s and 60s, then slowly fall through
the afternoon.
.LONG TERM...(Wednesday Night through Sunday)
Issued at 345 AM MDT Mon Oct 12 2020
The fast west to northwest flow aloft will continue through Thursday
before shifting east Friday and Saturday as a upper ridge moves into
the western CONUS. The 00Z GFS/NAM prog 700mb winds to increase from
45-55 kt Tuesday afternoon to 65-75 kt Tuesday night over much of
southeast WY. GFS 700/850mb height gradients likewise increase to 65-
75 meters. The local in-house high wind probabilities at Bordeaux
peak near 70 percent between 06Z and 12Z Wednesday, and near 12
percent at Cheyenne at 18Z Wednesday. High wind headlines may be
issued as early as tonight for much of southeast WY including the
wind prone areas.
Scattered rain and snow showers will develop along and behind the
front Wednesday night and linger into early Thursday morning. QPF
amounts will be up to two-tenths of an inch. Unseasonably cool
temperatures are forecast Thursday with highs only in the 40s to
lower 50s, with 30s for the higher terrain.
Friday and Saturday will be dry and milder with breezy westerly
winds.
Another cold front will push southeast through the CWA by Saturday
evening. Scattered rain and snow showers will occur along and behind
the front through early Sunday morning. High temperatures Sunday
will be near to slightly below seasonal normals.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Tuesday night)
Issued at 1152 PM MDT Mon Oct 12 2020
VFR flight conditions expected through 12Z for all terminals.
Gusty winds for LAR will dissipate by 8Z. CYS will see a decrease
in wind gusts overnight also. The western NE terminals will see
winds of 10 knots or less. Another weather disturbance will move
through the region after 12Z causing wind gusts to increase for
terminals after sunrise. More information will be included at the
next TAF issuance.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 206 PM MDT Mon Oct 12 2020
Critical fire weather conditions will be in place across the area
during the next couple of days due to weak upper level ridging in
place. This combined with mixing heights around 6 to 8kft and a very
dry air mass will allow for gusty winds tomorrow. The highest
potential for Red Flag conditions will be across 309, 310 and 313.
These gusty winds may drop off at sunset tomorrow for a brief time
before picking up again late Tuesday night into Wednesday. Good
humidity recoveries are expected tonight with values ranging from 55
to 65 percent, but poor humidity recoveries are expected on Tuesday
night ahead of the digging shortwave in the northern plains.
