AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHEYENNE WY
230 PM MDT MON JUL 25 2005

.SHORT TERM...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP OVER
MUCH OF THE CWA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON.  AT THIS TIME THE MORE
WIDESPREAD ACTIVITY LOOKS TO BE OVER THE FAR SOUTH PART OF THE
CWA.  THAT IS THE AREA CLOSER TO THE BETTER SURFACE FORCING AS
WELL IN THE PROXIMITY OF THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF THE 250 MB
JET.  AS THE ATMOSPHERE STABILIZES TONIGHT THE PRECIPITATION WILL
CHANGE TO MORE STRATIFORM.  ONCE THE JET SEGMENT SAGS SOUTH AND
THE BEST LIFT IS GONE...BY EARLY MORNING...MOST OF THE BETTER
DYNAMICS WILL HAVE ENDED.  MOIST BOUNDARY LAYER UPSLOPE TO A DEPTH OF
5 TO 6 THOUSAND FEET AGL WILL BE OVER THE CWA FROM SHORTLY AFTER
06Z TO MID TO LATE MORNING TUESDAY.  THAT SHOULD RESULT IN WIDESPREAD
LOW CLOUDS...ESPECIALLY EAST OF THE MOUNTAINS AND FOG.  THERE SHOULD
EVEN BE DRIZZLE AT LEAST IN THE SOUTHEAST WYOMING PLAINS.  THOSE
CLOUDS WILL SLOWLY LIFT DURING THE DAY TUESDAY AND BREAK UP BY
LATE AFTERNOON IN THE NORTH AND WEST PARTS OF THE CWA.  THE CLOUD
COVER AND MUCH COOLER TEMPERATURES UP TO 700 MB WILL MAKE FOR A MUCH
COOLER DAY THAN WHAT WE HAVE HAD OVER THE PAST 2 WEEKS.  WITH THE
APPROACH OF THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH CURRENTLY ENTERING IDAHO...SOME
SHOWERS AND EVEN THUNDERSTORMS ARE A POSSIBILITY ON
TUESDAY.

.LONG TERM...CURRENT FORECAST ON TRACK SO NO MAJOR CHANGES MADE TO
GRIDS.  UPPER HIGH WILL BUILD ALONG WEST COAST WED...RESULTING IN NW
FLOW ALOFT OVER THE CWA AND DOWNSLOPE WINDS AT THE SURFACE.
THICKNESS VALUES OVER CYS WILL BE AROUND 575 SO...WILL GO WITH DRY
CONDITIONS WITH TEMPERATURES A FEW DEGREES BELOW NORMAL ACROSS THE
AREA.  FOR THUR...UPPER RIDGE MOVES INLAND AND NW FLOW CONTS ALOFT
OVER THE FORECAST AREA.  THICKNESS RISE TO AROUND 583 SO WILL GO
WITH CONTINUED DRY CONDITIONS WITH TEMPERATURES WARMING TO A FEW
DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.  A WEAK SHORT WAVE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA
FRI MORNING...SO WILL MENTION A FEW THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE
MOUNTAINS...THE REST OF THE CWA WILL REMAIN DRY WITH HIGH
TEMPERATURES CONTINUING TO BE A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.
