.SYNOPSIS...Gusty winds are expected to continue ahead of a
strong winter storm which will bring significant precipitation to
much of the state this afternoon through Wednesday morning. The
active pattern will continue into the weekend.

&&

.SHORT TERM (THROUGH 12Z FRIDAY)...The deep upstream trough that
has been advertised to bring significant winds and precipitation
to the forecast area is currently making its way onto the West
Coast. Meanwhile, Utah remains under a strong southwest flow
aloft. Winds have already become gusty across portions of northern
and western Utah, owing in part to a 17mb southeasterly MSLP
gradient from southeast to northwest Utah. Meanwhile, exposed
high-elevation ridgelines have seen greater than 80 mph gusts.
Surface winds will increase into the afternoon hours today as
the trough and associated cold front approaches, further
tightening the gradient, and as deeper mixing occurs.

Abundant and climatologically anomalous moisture will be spreading
into Utah from the southwest today ahead of the trough,
associated with an inland penetrating atmospheric river. This will
result in significant precipitation ahead of, along, and behind
the cold front. Precipitation is expected to begin by this
afternoon across areas favored in southwest flow, such as the Pine
Valley Mountains, and the far northern Wasatch Mountains/Wasatch
Front and Cache Valley area. With the warm airmass in place,
precipitation in the valleys will begin as rain, with wet snow in
the mountains. The cold front will move through western Utah this
evening, arrive at SLC before midnight, and then continue through
southern and eastern Utah overnight. With the storm becoming
cyclogenic, the cold front should be fairly potent as it moves
through, with strong vertical motions. Coupled with the abundant
moisture, this should result in a period of fairly intense
precipitation around the cold front, with snow levels rapidly
falling to the valley floors. Mountains could see a period of over
2 inches of snow per hour with good dendritic growth. Valleys may
also see a brief period of snow with higher rates near the cold
front, but overall snow amounts will be limited by a portion of
the event being rain. The bulk of the precipitation will be
winding down by sunrise, with some mainly orographic precipitation
persisting through around midday.

Winter weather highlights cover expected amounts and impacts well,
so have not made any changes. With the wind highlights, have added
southeastern Utah zones to the Wind Advisory for this evening and
overnight ahead of and with the passage of the cold front,
consistent with winds forecast by the HREF and NBM 4.1. South-
central Utah may also see winds in the advisory range, but this is
already mentioned in the Winter Weather Advisory for that zone, so
have decided not to add an additional wind highlight.

A brief break in the weather is expected late tomorrow afternoon
through tomorrow evening. Thereafter, precipitation will fill in
again across northern Utah as H7 warm advection strengthens ahead
of the next approaching trough. This trough will cross northern
and central Utah Thursday through Thursday night, bringing another
round of snow to the area.

.LONG TERM (After 12z Friday)...Weak storm systems and cold weekend
temperatures are the main weather talking points in the long term
forecast. At the onset of the long term forecast period, Utah will
be on the backside of a passing trough axis that will put the area
in a cold northwesterly flow aloft, while at the surface a dry,
cold, surface boundary will be moving across the state. Expect a
continuation of light mountain snow showers across the northern
Wasatch on Friday afternoon. As this surface boundary swings through
southern Utah there is the possibility for some Gap winds to develop
across lower Washington County by Friday afternoon and evening.
These winds could pose some travel issues along I-15.

As we head into the weekend, very cold temperatures are expected to
spread across much of the state. Ensemble members show a weak ridge
tapping into a very cold airmass across the northern border states
and advecting this airmass south across Utah with little moderation
of the airmass occurring before it arrives. This translates to
single digit Saturday morning lows across much of northern and
central Utah. Most everyone along the Wasatch Front will see low
teens with well below freezing temperatures across southern Utah.
High temperatures on Saturday will struggle to climb above freezing
across much of central and northern Utah.

By Sunday deterministic models and their ensemble members are
advertising a weak storm system passing through northern Utah on
Sunday. There are a lot of similarities with this system compared to
the one earlier in the week in terms of where the bulk of the
precipitation will occur. PoP forecast closely mirrored the previous
methodology by keeping the highest PoPs across the central and
northern Utah mountains and mid tier Pops across northern Utah with
lesser PoP chances across central Utah, and little to no PoPs across
southern Utah. As this will be another fast moving system, snow
accumulations will be limited.

Heading into next week, signals are in place for a ridge to build on
Monday that will bring dry conditions and slightly warmer
temperatures.

.AVIATION...KSLC...VFR conditions will transition to MVFR/IFR
conditions through the valid TAF period. Ahead of an approaching
front, CIGs will remain above 7kft, but as the front and
precipitation approaches the terminal, expect CIGs to drop below
7kft AGL between 18-22z. Expect rain from 22-00z with a quick
transition to a rain/snow mix around 03z coinciding with the frontal
passage. Snow will then begin falling at the terminal between 03-
06z. There is a chance for a brief window where the snow could be
heavy at times and bring IFR conditions.

South winds will ramp up across the terminal through the afternoon.
Sustained winds will be between 8-12 kts, this morning, but will
increase to 20-25 kts with gusts between 30-35 kts, by 18z. Some
gusts could approach 40 kts between 18-22z. These gusty southerly
winds will continue but gradually decrease in magnitude through 03z.
Winds will shift to a northerly flow around 06z.

REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...VFR conditions will transition
to MVFR/IFR conditions through the valid TAF period. An approaching
storm system will impact Utah and southwest Wyoming today. CIGs will
begin to drop below 7kft AGL from west to east between 18z-21z.
Mountain obscurement across the central and northern mountain is
expected. Precipitation will spread across the northwestern portions
of the airspace by 21z and spread south and east through 03z. Much
of the terminals will see rain before switching over to a rain/snow
mix before switching over to all snow by tomorrow morning. KBCE
should see all snow while KSGU remains all rain. There is a
possibility for some sites to see intermittent IFR/LIFR conditions
tomorrow morning.
