Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Riverton WY
350 PM MST Wed Nov 30 2022

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 1226 PM MST Wed Nov 30 2022

After a cold morning, brief ridging has allowed warmer 700mb
temperatures to push in. Highs will peak 10 to 15 degrees warmer for
locations that can mix the warmer air down, mainly from eastern
Sweetwater County through Johnson County. Light to moderate snow
will continue to fall across the west through tonight as the moist
westerly flow persists. The gusty, mixing wind will continue through
tonight as a Pacific trough approaches. This will begin to increase
snowfall rates after sunrise Thursday, with moderate snowfall
continuing through the day. The heaviest snowfall is expected
Thursday night through early Friday morning. As for coverage, this
will mainly be a mountain and western Wyoming event, though light
snow will spill east of the Divide on Friday as the system pulls
east. One concern with the snow forecast is the western valleys, as
recent guidance seems to have trended down for places like Jackson
in the Thursday night through Friday morning range. Still will keep
with the WPC guidance for now. More confidence exists for the
western mountains, which are likely to receive a foot or two. The
other impact with this system will be wind, especially along the
Wind Corridor from South Pass through Natrona County where southwest
gusts over 60 mph are possible Thursday ahead of the cold front.
Friday will be gusty over a more widespread area behind the front,
but currently looking like gusts will stay below High Wind Criteria.
Snow will decrease by early Friday afternoon, eventually tapering
off by sunset.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 1226 PM MST Wed Nov 30 2022

Friday night will start off cold and dry with strong southwest winds
across the southern wind corridor and along the Cody Foothills and
Absaroka, Bighorn and Wind River Mountains. Lows that morning will
range from -10 to +15F. The southwest flow will continue as the next
mid-level low and trough push onshore near CA/OR. Moisture with this
system will move into southwestern WY late Saturday night and spread
across the south and west through the day Sunday. The majority of
the snowfall with this storm will stay west of the Divide, lasting
Sunday afternoon through Monday afternoon. The one good thing is the
temperatures will warm slightly ahead of the system, although highs
will still only climb into the upper 20s to low to mid 30s.

Monday will see the low move into the Great Basin region, with a
trough from Canada deepening across northern WY. This will enhance
the surface gradient and see the winds again increase along the Rock
Springs to Casper corridor as well as along the mountains. Monday
could also see some precipitation across the northern areas of the
state as the pattern evolves and the low is absorbed into the main
flow. Overnight lows into Tuesday will drop again into the single
digits with a chance of below zero spots. Any snowfall will be
confined to the northwest and portions of the west. Tuesday will see
gusty southwest winds again in the afternoon. Snow will finally
taper off by Wednesday morning.
