Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT
605 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.

&&

.UPDATE...After coordination with the Storm Prediction Center,
have dropped the Severe Thunderstorm Watch for areas along and
south of a line from Tooele to Utah to Wasatch Counties and areas
south of here. Have witnessed an intrusion of an axis of dry air
across the west deserts, as 6PM surface analysis indicates
surface dewpoints have fallen into the 30s here. Farther east, a
sharp low-level moisture gradient exists, and surface dewpoints
rise into the 50s generally along/east of I-15, mainly north of
Richfield. As a result, the boundary layer has stabilized within
the dry airmass, and any additional shower/thunderstorm activity
that develops within this airmass will be isolated and generally
non-severe. Farther north, a surface low has formed just west of
the Great Salt Lake. A low-level boundary extends south and east
from the low, and it is this boundary that separates the more
moist, higher instability air from the drier air to the west.
Given continued upper forcing and a vort lobe rotating through NE
Nevada, showers and thunderstorms should continue for the next
couple of hours across northern Utah, focused on the low-level
boundary. Across southern and central Utah, the primary threat is
transitioning from a severe threat to a flood threat, as
additional shower/thunderstorm development with embedded heavy
rainfall is expected to continue through much of the night,
especially along/east of I-15. Per CAMs, the threat should become
increasingly focused across central Utah burn scars overnight. The
previous discussion follows and the existing flood watches still
look good.

&&

.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.
