.DISCUSSION...Southerly flow will begin to increase tonight as a trough
moves into the Pacific Northwest. This will strengthen into a strong
area of low pressure over Nevada on Monday, and move along or near the
Utah/Idaho border on Tuesday. Look for southerly flow to increase further
on Sunday, and the initial subtle increases in moisture will arrive during
the late afternoon, with the first chance of isolated showers arriving after
1500, with isolated showers and an isolated thunderstorm continuing through
around 2200. With this activity being on the drier side, gusty, outflow
winds will be the main threat, and worst-case scenario gusts with these
are in the 40-50 mph range. Isolated to scattered showers and storms
are then expected Monday afternoon, mainly after 1400, with a similar
gusty wind threat, although worst-case scenario gusts are higher, or in
the 50-60 mph range. Good RH recovery then arrives Tuesday, along with
cool, showery conditions. Cool, showery conditions will then persist
through Friday.
