AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FLAGSTAFF AZ 230 PM MST SUN SEP 02 2007 .SYNOPSIS...HIGH PRESSURE AND MONSOON MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO BRING A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS TO NORTHERN ARIZONA OVER THE NEXT WEEK. OTHERWISE...ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MONDAY THEN LOWER TO NEAR NORMAL LEVELS BY WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE WEAKENS AND INCREASING MOISTURE MOVES IN FROM THE SOUTH. && .DISCUSSION...THE AXIS OF AN ELONGATED...DEEP LAYER RIDGE STRETCHED FROM SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TO SOUTHERN UTAH THIS AFTERNOON. AS A RESULT...NORTHERN ARIZONA REMAINED UNDER NORTH TO NORTHEAST FLOW ALOFT. ISOLATED STORMS HAD DEVELOPED ACROSS THE MOGOLLON RIM AND WERE BEGINNING TO MOVE SOUTHWARD DURING THE MID AFTERNOON HOURS. THERE IS PLENTY OF MOISTURE TO THE SOUTH OF THE MOGOLLON RIM AND ISOLATED STORMS THAT PUSH SOUTHWARD INTO YAVAPAI OR GILA COUNTIES WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME SEVERE. DUE TO THE DEEP AND HOT BOUNDARY LAYER...WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH WILL BE THE MOST LIKELY THREAT WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS. FOR TONIGHT...WITH NORTHEAST FLOW...OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM THUNDERSTORMS IN COLORADO COULD MOVE ACROSS NORTHEAST ARIZONA WITH ISOLATED STORMS POSSIBLE TONIGHT. AS A RESULT WILL BE CARRYING OVERNIGHT POPS SOMEWHAT HIGHER THAN CLIMATOLOGICAL VALUES. FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY...NOT MUCH CHANGE IN THE PATTERN AS THE CURRENT DEEP-LAYER HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WOBBLES AROUND THE SAME GENERAL AREA. THE POTENTIAL FOR STRONG THUNDERSTORMS TO MOVE SOUTHWARD OFF THE RIM AND INTO THE LOWER DESERTS WILL CONTINUE. NORTHEAST FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO DIRECT NIGHTTIME OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES INTO NORTHEAST ARIZONA WITH A THREAT FOR NOCTURNAL THUNDERSTORMS. FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK...THE PATTERN BECOMES COMPLICATED. MOISTURE WILL LINGER OVER ARIZONA WITH AN INTRIGUING INTERACTION BETWEEN THE CURRENT HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM...A TROUGH FROM THE NORTH AND THE POTENTIAL INPUT OF DEEP MOISTURE FROM THE TROPICS. THE NET RESULT WILL BE THAT THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME VERY WET DAYS LATE IN THE WEEK. MCCOLLUM && .AVIATION...FOR THE 00Z PACKAGE...WIDELY SCATTERED RAINSHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WHICH FORMED OVER HIGHER TERRAIN EARLIER TODAY WILL CONTINUE TO DRIFT SOUTHWESTWARD. EXPECT ONLY ISOLATED MVFR CONDITIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE STRONGER STORMS. CONVECTION SHOULD WIND DOWN AFTER 03Z. RESIDUAL CLOUDINESS WILL DISSIPATE GRADUALLY THROUGH THE NIGHT. AVIATION DISCUSSION NOT UPDATED FOR AMENDMENTS. HOWARD && .FGZ WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE. &&
