AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
1055 AM MDT FRI JUN 9 2006
.SYNOPSIS...A MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL BE OVER THE AREA TODAY. A
COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST THIS AFTERNOON
AND THEN SWEEP ACROSS NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA TONIGHT. AN
UPPER RIDGE WILL BUILD BACK OVER THE REGION DURING THE WEEKEND.
&&
.DISCUSSION...A COUPLE OF SHORTWAVE TROUGHS EVIDENT ON WV IMAGERY
ARE MOVING ACROSS THE CWA THIS MORNING. THE FIRST FEATURE PRODUCED
PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN ALONG THE WASATCH FRONT AND WASATCH MOUNTAINS
THIS MORNING AND IS CURRENTLY AFFECTING EXTREME NORTHEAST UTAH AND
SOUTHWEST WYOMING...ALTHOUGH THERE ARE STILL SOME TRAILING SHOWERS
OVER JUST EAST OF THE SALT LAKE VALLEY AREA. MOST OF THE PRECIP
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS DISTURBANCE SHOULD EXIT THE AREA BY EARLY
AFTERNOON. THE SECOND FEATURE IS CURRENTLY MOVING INTO THE WESTERN
UTAH DESERTS FROM NEVADA. THIS WAVE IS EXPECTED TO TRACK IN A MORE
NORTHERLY DIRECTION AS A TROUGH OVER THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST DIGS.
HOWEVER...IT STILL LOOKS LIKE IT IS ON TRACK TO IMPACT AT LEAST THE
NORTHERN WASATCH FRONT...IF NOT THE SALT LAKE VALLEY. A JET STREAK
MOVING INTO WESTERN UTAH IS HELPING TO ORGANIZE AND SUSTAIN THE
CONVECTION.
ACTIVITY SHOULD WANE A BIT OVER THE WEST BEHIND THE SECOND
WAVE...BUT THE FOCUS WILL SHIFT MORE TOWARDS THE EAST AS THE JET
STREAK MOVES OVER THAT AREA. STILL SEEING FAIRLY HIGH PRECIPITABLE
WATER THERE...OVER 0.8 INCHES MOST AREAS PER GOES-DERIVED IMAGERY.
HAVE BUMPED UP POPS A BIT FOR TODAY AS A RESULT...MAINLY CENTRAL AND
EASTERN PORTIONS. GIVEN THE MOISTURE AND JET SUPPORT...ISOLATED
SEVERE NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION FOR TODAY. THE EXTREME SOUTH MAY SEE
ISOLATED CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE TAIL END OF THE JET
STREAK.
THE TROUGH OVER THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST WILL SEND A COLD FRONT ACROSS
THE AREA LATE THIS EVENING. THE FRONT LOOKS TO MAKE IT THROUGH ABOUT
THE NORTHWESTERN THIRD OF UTAH BEFORE STALLING OUT AND WEAKENING.
EXPECT TO SEE A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP NEAR THE BOUNDARY.
AS THE FRONT WEAKENS...PRECIP LOOKS TO TAPER OFF BY TOMORROW
AFTERNOON. A WARMER AND DRIER SOUTHWEST FLOW THEN RETURNS TO THE
AREA ON SUNDAY.
&&
.AVIATION...AN AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE WEST DESERTS COULD
IMPACT THE KSLC TERMINAL BEGINNING NEAR 18Z. EXPECT PERIODS OF MVFR
VIS AND CIGS WITH THESE STORMS. THESE STORMS COULD STRENGTHEN AND
PRODUCE STRONG WIND GUSTS...WITH A 10 PERCENT CHANCE THAT THESE
GUSTS WILL EXCEED 40KTS AT THE KSLC TERMINAL THROUGH AROUND 22Z.
OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORMS...SOUTH WINDS OF 15-20KTS ARE EXPECTED TO
PREVAIL TODAY.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...DRIER AIR WILL MIX INTO SOUTHWEST UTAH THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING. WARM AIR MASS IN PLACE SHOULD RESULT IN CRITICAL FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS WHEN DEWPOINTS LOWER AND AT THE SAME TIME
SOUTHWEST WIND GUSTS TO 30 MPH OCCUR AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING
PACIFIC TROUGH. THIS MAY TAKE UNTIL THE 22-03Z TIME FRAME AS
CONSEQUENCE SHORT WAVE EJECT FROM THE MEAN UPPER TROUGH DROPPING
INTO NORTHERN NEVADA. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE STILL POSSIBLE IN
THE WARNING AREA ESPECIALLY ZONE 434...435...440...437 WHICH COULD
HAVE WETTING RAIN. SUFFICIENT MOISTURE AND WEAK INSTABILITY REMAINS
IN THESE AREAS BEFORE THE STRONGER DRYING ARRIVES EARLY THIS EVENING.
FOR THE NORTH... SECONDARY SHORT WAVE TROUGH NEAR CENTRAL NEVADA
BORDER WILL SEND ANOTHER WAVE OF CONVECTION ACROSS NORTHWEST UTAH
NEAR MIDDAY...THEN A BREAK MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. COLD FRONT THAT
ARRIVES MID EVENING OVER THE GSL WILL DROP INTO WEST CENTRAL UTAH
AND DRAG A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS INTO THAT REGION. LOW LEVEL COLD
FRONT WILL STALL OVER NORTH CENTRAL UTAH NEAR DUGWAY EARLY SATURDAY.
EXPECT WETTING RAINS AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN IN NORTHERN WITH MIDDAY
WAVE AND WITH THE COLD FRONT THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. EASTERN
UTAH SHOULD FILL IN WITH SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON.
&&
.HYDRO...PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN WILL CONTINUE OVER PORTIONS OF
NORTHERN UTAH THROUGH THIS EVENING. THE ADDITIONAL RAIN TODAY MAY
LEAD TO FLOODING IN AREAS SATURATED BY LAST EVENINGS RAINFALL. IN
ADDITION...RIVERS ARE QUITE HIGH DUE TO ONGOING SNOWMELT. STEEP
TERRAIN ALONG THE WASATCH FRONT...AREAS OF RECENT MUD/DEBRIS FLOWS
AND AREAS BURNED BY WILDFIRES IN THE LAST FEW YEARS ARE OF
PARTICULAR CONCERN FOR TODAY. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT.
.SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
UT...RED FLAG WARNING FROM NOON FRIDAY TO 9 PM FRIDAY FOR UTZ434-
435-437 AND 439>441.
