AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FLAGSTAFF AZ
230 PM MST SAT JUN 24 2006
.SYNOPSIS...A STRONG HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO BRING HOT
WEATHER TO NORTHERN ARIZONA FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. AT THE SAME
TIME...THERE WILL BE A GRADUAL INCREASE IN MOISTURE WITH AN
INCREASING CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE MIDDLE
OF NEXT WEEK.
&&
.DISCUSSION... THIS AFTERNOON CONVECTION HAS DEVELOPED ALONG THE
EASTERN MOGOLLON RIM AND WHITE MOUNTAIN AREAS WITH SOME OUTFLOWS
FROM THE THUNDERSTORMS CREATING GUST FRONTS WITH WINDS ESTIMATED
FROM 25 TO 35 MPH. DUE TO THE DRY BOUNDARY LAYER THESE STORMS WILL
BE MOSTLY HIGH BASED AND PROVIDE LITTLE IN THE WAY OF MEASURABLE
PRECIPITATION. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ALSO BEEN QUITE ACTIVE ACROSS
NORTHWEST MEXICO OVER THE PAST FEW NIGHTS SENDING OUTFLOWS OF
MOISTURE NORTHWARD UP TO FLAGSTAFF. THIS WILL BE THE PRIMARY
MECHANISM FOR MOVING MOISTURE UP FROM THE LOWER DESERTS TO THE HIGH
COUNTRY OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
A STRONG HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM CENTERED OVER NEVADA WILL MOVE OVER
NORTHERN ARIZONA AND DOMINATE WEATHER CONDITIONS THROUGH NEXT WEEK.
THE POSITION OF THE HIGH PRESSURE PATTERN IS NOT IDEAL FOR A STRONG
MOISTURE SURGE WHICH WOULD BRING MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW UP INTO THE
HIGH COUNTRY. AS A RESULT...EXPECT CONTINUED HOT DAYTIME
TEMPERATURES AND GENERALLY LIGHT WINDS WITH JUST A GRADUAL INCREASE
IN THE AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY AND CLOUD COVER. DUE TO THE
DRYNESS OF THE BOUNDARY LAYER AND THE INCREASED THREAT OF
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY EXPECT TO SEE MORE CONVECTIVE WIND GUSTS FROM
OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS.
FOR THE REST OF TODAY AND SUNDAY...THE THREAT FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL
MAINLY BE CONFINED TO THE MOGOLLON RIM AND WHITE MOUNTAINS SOUTHWARD.
FOR MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN NEARLY IN
THE SAME LOCATION BUT WILL WEAKEN SLIGHTLY WHICH WILL ALLOW
ADDITIONAL MOISTURE TO MOVE FURTHER NORTHWARD...RESULTING IN
SLIGHTLY COOLER DAYTIME HIGHS AND EXPANDED COVERAGE FOR CLOUDS AND
THUNDERSTORMS.
BOHLIN
&&
.AVIATION...FOR THE 00Z PACKAGE...ISOLATED HIGH BASED THUNDERSTORMS
WILL AFFECT THE MOGOLLON RIM AND WHITE MTNS THROUGH 02Z THIS
EVENING...THEN AGAIN AFTER 19Z SUNDAY. WIND GUSTS NEAR 35KT WILL BE
THE MAIN THREAT WITH THESE STORMS. HOWEVER...THE PROBABILITY OF
OCCURRENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH (< 20%) TO WARRANT INCLUSION OF
T-STORMS IN ANY TAF SITES AT THIS TIME. OTHERWISE...LOOK FOR LIGHT
WINDS AND VFR CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE. AVIATION DISCUSSION NOT
UPDATED FOR AMENDMENTS.
