Area forecast discussion, Apr 9, 10:45 AM MDT, 3 hours 2 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Great Falls MT 1045 AM MDT Thu Apr 9 2020 ...Aviation Section Updated... .SYNOPSIS... High pressure will keep the area dry, with mild temperatures into Friday. However, a strong spring snow storm will bring widespread snow, gusty northerly winds, and much colder temperatures to the region Friday night through Saturday night. Snow ends by Sunday, but unseasonably cold temperatures remain into next week. && .Morning Updated... Main update this morning, which was pretty minor, was to bump up temperatures several degrees. Temperatures have been warming quickly this morning, especially in areas that were not shield by the early morning cirrus deck. Otherwise, the on-going forecast for today and tonight remains on track and no other updates were necessary. Focus this afternoon will be on the incoming winter storm, which bring widespread impacts to the Northern Rockies from Friday afternoon through Saturday night. - Moldan && .AVIATION... Updated 1045 AM MDT Thu Apr 9 2020 (09/18Z TAF Period) VFR conditions are expected for much of the 0918/1018 TAF period; however, some near-MVFR CIGS are possible across extreme Southwest Montana Friday morning near the KWYS terminal. Scattered high clouds will also be seen across the region over the next 18 hours, with the greatest coverage across Central and North Central Montana. A cold will then begin to advance south across the International Border between 09-15z Friday, bringing a wind shift to the northwest/north at the KCTB and KHVR terminals, in addition to increasing mid- to low level cloudiness. Mountain passes will start to become obscured from north to south during the day on Friday. - Moldan && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 505 AM MDT Thu Apr 9 2020/ High pressure will maintain fair and mild conditions today and tonight. High clouds will stream through the upstream ridge and across our region at times. The pattern changes quickly during the day on Friday, as a strong upper level trough advances south along the Canadian Rockies, and the Pacific ridge shifts further west to set up a colder northerly flow into our region. Overall confidence remains high regarding this return to winter weather, having seen only subtle changes from previous forecasts. The initial surface cold front is expected to move into North-central Montana sometime Friday morning, causing a shift to northerly winds and beginning to lower temperatures. Central and Southwest Montana will remain mild through most of Friday. Scattered rain showers over plains during the afternoon will mix with snow for a short period late in the afternoon, before changing over to all snow through Friday evening. Similar conditions will spread into portions of southwest Montana overnight as the low pressure trough moves into Montana and pushes the cold front south through the state. Temperatures will also fall rapidly to near or below freezing Friday night through Saturday over the plains, which may cause a flash-freeze situation on some roadways along with continuing snowfall. Widespread snow continues through Saturday. The heaviest snowfall amounts will likely be in the mountains of north central and central Montana (mostly 8 to 12 inches, but possibly up to 16 inches on some peaks) and in upslope-favored north- and east- facing slopes on the plains (5 to 8 inches possible). This snowfall will also be enhanced by a jet streak moving through these areas in the westerly flow aloft and providing some added lift to the system. The breezy northerly winds will also persist into Saturday, and the resulting blowing snow will likely cause additionally reduced visibility and hazardous driving conditions. Snow will decrease and gradually end from north to south Saturday night into Sunday morning as the upper level trough moves away to the east. A strong continental polar airmass deepens over the region under that persistent northerly flow aloft. Temperatures will fall well below normal for this time of year, possibly setting new calendar day cold records at some locations. These cold conditions will continue into Monday as well. PN/Coulston Monday through next Wednesday...The low pressure trough will spread east across the United States during this time, leaving the forecast area under a cool but gradually warming northerly flow aloft. Disturbances in the flow will keep the main chance for additional light snow in the mountains. Highs on Monday in the mid 20s to mid 30s will warm into the mid 30s to mid 40s by Wednesday, and lows will be slower to warm, staying mostly in the teens.
