AZZ020>028-CAZ030>033-080600- AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PHOENIX AZ 340 PM MST FRI SEP 7 2007 .SYNOPSIS... A DRYING TREND WILL COMMENCE ACROSS SOUTH-CENTRAL ARIZONA OVERNIGHT ...LEADING TO DECREASING CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL BEGIN SETTLING OVER FAR NORTHERN MEXICO AND SOUTHERN ARIZONA OVER THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL KEEP ANY THREAT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONFINED TO JUST THE HIGHEST SOUTH-CENTRAL ARIZONA TERRAIN. IT WILL TURN WARMER OVER THE WEEKEND...WITH AFTERNOON HIGHS AVERAGING SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL. && .SHORT TERM... TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY... A PERSISTENT AREA OF SHOWERS DEVELOPED EARLY THIS MORNING OVER WESTERN MARICOPA AND EASTERN LA PAZ AND YUMA COUNTIES AND HAS LINGERED IN THE REGION THROUGHOUT MOST OF THE DAY. ACTIVITY IS ASSOCIATED WITH A VORT MAX PUSHING ACROSS THE REGION AND AN UPPER LEVEL DEFORMATION AXIS. ACTIVITY IS DRIFTING TO THE NORTHWEST...BUT WILL STICK AROUND FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER COUPLE OF HOURS. KEPT POPS FOR THE FIRST PERIOD IN ZONE 22 IN THE SLIGHT CHANCE CATEGORY AND USED COVERAGE TERMINOLOGY. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALSO BEGINNING TO DEVELOP...AS EXPECTED OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN IN SOUTHERN GILA COUNTY. STEERING WINDS ARE EXTREMELY LIGHT...SO AM NOT EXPECTING ACTIVITY TO MOVE INTO THE PHOENIX METRO AREA. AFTERNOON PSR SOUNDING...HOWEVER REMAINS FAIRLY UNSTABLE...SO CAN NOT RULE OUT SOME ISOLATED DEVELOPMENT. ELECTED THEREFORE TO KEEP LOW POPS FOR ZONES 23 AND 28 IN BOTH GRIDS AND ZONE FORECAST PACKAGE. THE GFS SHOWS DRIER AIR BEGINNING TO MOVE IN FROM THE NORTHWEST OVERNIGHT AS THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BEGINS TO SHIFT FURTHER TO THE SOUTHWEST. THIS OCCURS IN RESPONSE TO TO AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WHICH PUSHES OUT OF THE NORTHWEST THE EARLY PART OF THE WEEKEND AND MOVES ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK. THE END RESULT WILL BE A DRYING TREND FOR THE SOUTHWEST WITH MOISTURE BEING SHUNTED SOUTH OF THE INTERNATIONAL BORDER. THIS WILL SHUT OF PRETTY MUCH ALL SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SOME POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF SOUTHERN GILA COUNTY DIURNALLY IN THE AFTERNOON PERIODS. ABUNDANT SUNSHINE AND LACK OF MOISTURE WILL ENABLE TEMPERATURES TO RISE A DEGREE OR TWO EACH DAY THROUGH THE PERIOD...WITH HIGHS TOPPING OUT AT SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL. && .LONG TERM... MINIMAL CHANGE WAS MADE TO THE EXTENDED PORTION OF THE FORECAST PACKAGE. THE CENTER OF THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE IS FORECAST TO STAY OVERHEAD OR TO OUR SOUTHWEST...WHICH WILL KEEP MOST MOISTURE TO OUR SOUTH. ANY MOISTURE THAT MAY TRY TO SNEAK IN UNDER THE RIDGE FROM THE SE SHOULD BE PRETTY STRONGLY CAPPED. WILL MAINTAIN A SLIGHT CHANCE OF DAILY TSTMS OVER THE FAR ERN PART OF ZONE 24...OTHERWISE DRY AND HOT THRU THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. && .AVIATION... SEPTEMBER 7 1735 UTC (SEPTEMBER 7 1035 MST) SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE OVER NORTHWEST MARICOPA COUNTY OFF/ON THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON. STORMS WILL BE ISOLATED IN NATURE...WITH RELATIVELY LIGHT WIND AND NOT MUCH PRECIPITATION. STORMS SHOULD REMAIN 40+ NM NW OF KPHX AIRFIELD. SKIES WILL CONTINUE TO CLEAR OVER KPHX AND KIWA AIRFIELDS THROUGH 2200 UTC BEFORE DAYTIME HEATING COMBINES WITH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE FOR DEVELOPING CU AT OR ABOVE 120 FT AGL AFTER 2300 UTC. THE CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IMPACTING KPHX AND KIWA AIRFIELDS TODAY REMAINS LESS THAN 20 PERCENT...WITH THE BEST CHANCE AFTER 2300 UTC. FOR NOW...WILL GO WITH FEW CB OVER AIRFIELDS AS CONFIDENCE REMAINS LOW OF TSTM DEVELOPMENT WITHIN 10-20 NM OF KPHX/KIWA. KYUM/KBLH/KIPL WILL BE UNDER CLEAR SKIES TODAY...AS A DRIER AIRMASS HAS SETTLED OVER THE SOUTHEAST CA DESERTS AND ALONG THE CO RIVER VALLEY.
