FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR UTAH
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
248 AM MDT SAT MAY 25 2013
...DRY AND BREEZY THROUGH THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND...
.BROADCAST DISCUSSION...DRY AND BREEZY CONDITIONS EXPECTED
MOST ALL AREAS TODAY AND TOMORROW AS SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT
DOMINATES THE LOCAL WEATHER. THIS WILL TREND TO CHANGE
EARLY NEXT WEEK AS PACIFIC STORM SYSTEMS ONCE AGAIN MOVE
THROUGH THE AREA. ISOLATED DRY THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY WILL TRANSITION TO WETTER STORMS BY MIDWEEK.
.DISCUSSION...WINDS AND LOW HUMIDITY WILL BE THE DOMINANT
FIRE WEATHER ISSUE TODAY THROUGH TOMORROW ONCE AGAIN. FUELS
REMAIN GREEN AT THIS TIME PER LATEST REPORTS BUT THESE WEATHER
FACTORS WOULD CREATE HAZARDOUS FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS IF
THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. EXTENT OF LOW RH AND BREEZY SOUTHERLY
WINDS WILL EXPAND NORTH THROUGH MOST ALL AREAS TODAY ON
THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS A MODERATE SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL
AID NEAR SURFACE WIND SPEEDS THROUGHOUT.
A TRANSITION AWAY FROM THIS WILL BEGIN TO BE NOTICED AS EARLY
AS SUNDAY NIGHT BUT MORE SO TUESDAY ON AS A SERIES OF PACIFIC
STORM SYSTEMS MOVE THROUGH THE GREAT BASIN STATES. AT THE
LEAST INCREASED HUMIDITY WILL BE REALIZED...BUT THE POTENTIAL
FOR WETTING RAINS FROM SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE
AS WELL FOR THE TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY TIMEFRAME ESPECIALLY.
***THUNDERSTORMS IMPLY STRONG GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS***
***ALL WINDS ARE 20 FOOT...10-MINUTE AVERAGES***

SPOT FORECAST FOR RAPHAEL
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
628 AM MDT THU MAY 23 2013
.DISCUSSION...STORM SYSTEM OVER THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST CONTINUES TO
SPIN AROUND WITH SEVERAL SPOKES OF ENERGY ROTATING AROUND IT. AS
THESE SPOKES SWEEP ACROSS NEVADA AND EXTREME NORTHWEST UTAH THEY
INCREASE THE SOUTHWEST WINDS ALOFT ACROSS SOUTHWESTERN UTAH. ONE
SUCH LOBE IS OVER NORTHERN CALIFORNIA AT THIS TIME AND WILL MOVE
NORTHEAST ACROSS NORTHEAST NEVADA EARLY THIS EVENING RESULTING IN
THE SOUTHWEST WINDS TO INCREASE ONCE AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON...BUT
NOT QUITE AS STRONG AS YESTERDAY.
AN OVERALL BROAD TROUGH WILL RESIDE OVER THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND
CALIFORNIA FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY FOR CONTINUED SOUTHWEST FLOW BUT
NOT AS STRONG AS TODAY. THIS AIR MASS OVER SOUTHERN UTAH IS VERY
DRY AND WILL REMAIN DRY THROUGH SUNDAY.
DUE TO THE FIRE BEING ON THE NORTHEAST ASPECT WIND STRENGTH AND
DIRECTION WILL BE A CHALLENGE. THE GENERAL WIND FLOW IS SOUTHWEST
AND COULD OCCASIONALLY MIXED DOWN THE SLOPE TO THE FIRE THIS
AFTERNOON BUT MORE LIKELY THE WINDS WILL GET CHANNELED THROUGH THE
VALLEY THAT STATE ROUTE 143 RUNS AND IMPACT THE FIRE FROM THE
SOUTHEAST OR EAST THIS MORNING INTO THIS AFTERNOON. BUT LATE THIS
AFTERNOON WINDS COULD SHIFT AND COME THROUGH THE VALLEY RUNNING
WEST TO EAST AND BRING A NORTHWEST FLOW TO YOUR FIRE. WINDS AT THE
FIRE ITSELF SHOULD BE 6 TO 10 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 25 LATE THIS
MORNING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
