...VERY HOT TEMPERATURES WITH INCREASING MOISTURE...
.BROADCAST DISCUSSION...Very hot temperatures will persist today
and Friday with isolated afternoon storms across eastern Utah and
in the terrain on Thursday before becoming more widespread and
wetter on Friday. Temperatures cool this weekend with moisture
remaining through at least next week.
.DISCUSSION...High pressure continues to strengthen across the area
with high temperatures today and Friday ~10 degrees above normal
for this time of year. While moisture is starting to increase across
the region there still remains quite a bit of dry air at the surface.
This will keep minimum RH in the upper single digits to 20s across
the entire area today. These will improve over the next several days
as moisture continues to surge into the area.
As for storms, isolated afternoon thunderstorms will develop across
the terrain and portions of eastern Utah. Given the dry surface these
storms will struggle to produce wetting precipitation across the lower
terrain with strong gusty outflow winds and frequent lightning being
the more likely outcome. By Friday afternoon storms will become more
widespread across the state with wetting rain chances increasing.
Temperatures will trend down to near normal this weekend as increased
cloud cover and diurnal storms keep temperatures tapered. This moisture
will stick around through the weekend and into early next week with
southwesterly winds increasing late weekend.
***Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds***
***All winds are 20 foot, 10-minute averages***
