Area forecast discussion, Jun 6, 2:23 PM MDT, 6 hours 47 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Boise ID 223 PM MDT Tue Jun 6 2023 .SHORT TERM...Tonight through Thursday night...An upper low centered in California will continue to feed a stream of moisture into our area as it gradually moves northward into Nevada through Thursday. Daytime heating will promote mainly afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms, but there will be some lingering convection during the overnight and morning hours. The first round of convection this afternoon and evening will primarily occur over central Idaho and southern portions of Oregon and Idaho through this evening. The main concerns with the stronger thunderstorms through this evening and again on Wednesday will be marginal threat of gusty winds exceeding 50 mph and large hail. The closer proximity of the upper low on Thursday will bring a greater chance (>30 percent) for showers and thunderstorms by the afternoon across all areas. The main concern will be the marginal risk of excessive rainfall with the stronger storms. Temperatures will trend a few degrees cooler each day due to the increased cloud cover and precip. .LONG TERM...Friday through Tuesday...An upper low in far northwest Nevada will drift northward and across the region on Friday. The models continue to depict the low becoming the focus for showers and thunderstorms that could produce locally heavy rainfall due to the slower storm motion. The low will move northward and out the area on Saturday, but the next low pressure system will move onshore and deliver more rounds of showers and thunderstorms through early next week. Temperatures will remain within a few degrees of normal. && .AVIATION...Mainly VFR outside of thunderstorms. Showers and thunderstorms will increase in coverage the remainder of this afternoon along the Nevada border and in the central Idaho mountains before spreading north this evening. Thunderstorms will bring areas of MVFR with reduced visibilities due to heavy rain and lowered ceilings. Mountain obscurations and gusty outflow winds up to 40 kt near thunderstorms. Storms will decrease in coverage after 06Z/Wed. Surface winds: variable 5-10 kt. Winds aloft at 10k feet MSL: S-E 5-15 kt. && .BOI WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... ID...None.
