SPOT FORECAST FOR SUNSET NORTH
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
256 PM MDT TUE APR 28 2009

.DISCUSSION...PRIMARY CONCERN FOR TODAY AND THE REMAINDER OF THE
WEEK IS ASSOCIATED WITH GUSTY WINDS. UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVING
SLOWLY INTO THE GREAT BASIN NUDGED A SURFACE COLD FRONT INTO
NORTHERN UTAH THIS MORNING. HOWEVER...THE FRONT WILL REMAIN NORTH
OF THE BURN AREA LEAVING SOUTHERN UTAH UNDER MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES
THROUGH WEDNESDAY. ALTHOUGH WINDS HAVE BEEN SLOW TO SURFACE IN
THE VICINITY OF THE BURN SITE THIS AFTERNOON...STILL ANTICIPATE THE
POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY WINDS THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.
SOUTHWEST WINDS OF 15 TO 25 MPH WITH GUSTS TO NEAR 30 MPH ARE
EXPECTED IN THE VICINITY OF THE BURN AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING. WINDS WILL DIMINISH BY LATE THIS EVENING BEFORE PICKING
BACK UP DURING THE LATE MORNING ON WEDNESDAY. THE FLOW ALOFT WILL
BE A LITTLE LIGHTER ON WEDNESDAY...ALTHOUGH BREEZY SOUTHWEST WINDS
OF 15 TO 25 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 30 MPH ARE EXPECTED BY WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON. MIXING WILL BE EXCELLENT THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH
REASONABLY DEEP MIXING HEIGHTS AND VIGOROUS TRANSPORT WINDS.
HOWEVER...THESE EXCELLENT MIXING CONDITIONS WILL BE ASSOCIATED
WITH GUSTY WINDS AT THE SURFACE.
