Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT 349 PM MDT Thu Jun 1 2017 .SYNOPSIS...A weakening trough will push through Utah today, bringing stronger winds and a few thunderstorms. High pressure aloft will return behind the exiting trough for Friday through the upcoming weekend, resulting in hot and dry conditions. && .SHORT TERM...A shortwave trough lifting northeast across the northern Great Basin is helping to maintain scattered showers and thunderstorms across the forecast area this afternoon. A dry, deeply mixed boundary layer across western Utah is resulting in high based convection across northern and western areas, while better moisture in the south and east is resulting in locally heavy rainfall with the stronger storms. Anticipate this convection to continue into the evening hours before diminishing after sunset. Beyond tonight, mid level ridging is forecast to build across the forecast area through the remainder of the short term period, resulting in a warming and drying trend. Large scale subsidence associated with the building ridge will generally suppress convection across the forecast area, although an isolated shower or thunderstorm will remain possible over the western Uintas/Wasatch Plateau. .LONG TERM (After 12Z Sunday)...High pressure is expected to shift east during the day Sunday as a Pacific storm system moves onshore over California. The resultant increase in southerly flow will allow for continued warming, especially over northern Utah where near record high temperatures are possible. Latest EC/GFS now showing the trough will remain north of the area as it tracks northeast over the ridge, weakening it during the day Monday. It still looks to get far enough south to drop a cold front into northern Utah and southwest Wyoming, resulting in about a 10F drop in max temps between Sunday and Monday. The front looks to be mostly dry, but cannot rule out some associated showers and thunderstorms, primarily over the higher terrain of northern Utah. The ridge is progged to rebuild over the forecast area behind the exiting wave beginning Tuesday. This should result in a warming and drying trend for the middle of the upcoming week, though a few showers are still possible over the higher terrain with some lingering moisture. Global models show the ridge shifting east once again Thursday with some weak waves rotating northward over the forecast area in the southerly flow that develops. This may provide sufficient instability to increase coverage of showers and thunderstorms, so have added some isolated POPs for day seven. && .AVIATION...The SLC terminal is expected to see VFR conditions through the TAF period. However, there is a 20 percent chance of nearby showers bringing gusty and/or erratic winds to the terminal between 2200Z and 0100Z. Winds are expected to remain out of the south-to-southeast through the evening and into tomorrow morning. && .SLC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... UT...None. WY...None. && SHORT TERM... LONG TERM...
