AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPOKANE WA
1250 PM PDT Tue Jun 18 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue today. By
Wednesday a wet and cool weather pattern will take hold of the
region. Showery and cool conditions will continue through the
week, with a drying and warming trend possible by the weekend.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Another update done to decrease the forecast highs temps based on
majority of 24 hour trends at noon showing locations running
roughly 12 degrees cooler than they were yesterday at this time.
So knocked off 12 degrees from yesterdays maximum temperatures to
use as a check when making the adjustments (cooling). /Pelatti

.AVIATION...
18z TAFS: Moist and unstable air-mass and disturbances passing
through it in a south to north trajectory will keep unsettled
weather such as showers and thunderstorms in the aviation area for
the next 24 hours. VFR should prevail during most of the interval
during non heavy rainfall but near more intense shower and
thunderstorm activity the rainfall could bring ceilings and
visibilities down to MVFR along with gusty wind and small hail.
