Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT
1256 PM MDT Wed Sep 21 2022

.SYNOPSIS...Severe thunderstorms and flash flooding are likely
across portions of the state today. High pressure will build into
the area for the end of the week and through the weekend.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
All the focus in the short term remains on the this afternoon
through this evening period where multiple weather hazards ranging
from flash flooding to thunderstorms with strong to damaging
winds are possible. Much of southeastern Utah is outlooked with a
moderate risk (category 3 of 4) for flash flooding through this
evening, and a Flash Flood Watch is in effect. Meanwhile, much of
western and northwest Utah is outlooked for a marginal (1 of 5) to
a slight (2 of 5) risk of severe weather, with damaging wind
gusts from thunderstorms being the primary hazard type. A Severe
Thunderstorm Watch is in effect for much of western and Northern
Utah through this evening.

A large upper-level low centered over Northern California is
moving slowly eastward today while deep subtropical moisture is
advecting northward across the state ahead of the trough, with
the deepest moisture in place over southeastern Utah. Meanwhile,
deep layer ascent and shear is increasing over western and
northwestern Utah ahead of the trough, with an area of 50 to 60
knots of shear spreading across the state. The large area of
ascent across southwestern utah will support numerous to
widespread shower and thunderstorm development this afternoon. The
special 18Z sounding from KSLC is indicative of the environment,
with 500-1000 J/kg of CAPE, deep layer sheer to 50 knots. With
this organized thunderstorms are expected with rotating updrafts
capable of producing large hail and damaging wind gusts.
Otherwise, farther south and east, deeper layer moisture, with PW
values over 1 inch will support very efficient rain processes, as
much of that moisture is available lower in the lower levels with
dew points in the mid to upper 50s across southern and eastern
Utah. Heavy rainfall over sensitive slot canyons and normally dry
washes will make flash flooding likely over several basins in
southern Utah this afternoon and evening.

Thunderstorms are expected to diminish in coverage overnight
tonight as instability for daytime heating wanes, bringing an end
to the multi hazard event. The upper level trough axis will still
not pass the forecast area until during the day on Thursday. While
most of the moisture will be swept out to our east tomorrow, there
will remain some showers and thunderstorm chances across eastern
Utah, although not with the same coverage of voracity as today.

Through the weekend and into much of next week, quiescent and
seasonable weather conditions will return. A ridge will redevelop
to our west this weekend, and then slowly build eastward across
the area through early next week. This will largely keep the
forecast area under dry northwesterly flow. By mid to late next
week, as the ridge axis shifts to our east, there is a chance for
some return of moisture and therefore isolated to scattered
showers and thunderstorms.

&&

.AVIATION...KSLC...Showers and thunderstorms with the potential for
gusty and erratic winds, heavy rain, and hail will be possible until
around 00z. Otherwise isolated to scattered showers and storms will
be possible until around 06Z. Winds will primarily be out of the
south before switching to northerly winds tomorrow around 18Z.
Predominantly VFR conditions expected for the period with the
potential of getting MVFR conditions when a storm is overhead.

.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Showers and thunderstorms with
the potential for gusty and erratic winds, heavy rain, and hail will
be possible until around 00z. Otherwise isolated to scattered
showers and storms will be possible until around 06Z for most of the
CWA. Scattered storms are possible through mid-morning for central
and southern UT. Primarily southerly winds expected before switching
to diurnal wind changes overnight and into tomorrow. Predominantly
VFR conditions throughout the CWA with the potential of seeing lower
categories when a storm is overhead or nearby. Certain sites such as
KBCE and other valleys have good potential for fog and lowered
ceilings that could put their category into IFR or LIFR. The best
chance for these lowered flight categories is overnight.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
A moist southwest flow will remain in place across the area today
as a storm system over the West Coast starts to move inland.
Abundant moisture can be expected over the area, but especially
across southern and eastern Utah where widespread wetting rains
and scattered thunderstorms are expected. Farther north and west,
the airmass will be a bit drier, but isolated to scattered strong
thunderstorms producing gusty winds and hail will be possible
there. Outside of thunderstorms, the western valleys are expected
to see breezy conditions once again this afternoon.

As the storm system lifts across northern Utah late tonight into
tomorrow, the flow will turn westerly and cut off the moisture
surge. This will lead to a quick drying trend with only a few
lingering showers and thunderstorms by tomorrow afternoon. This
drier airmass will remain in place through the early part of next
week.
