NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
835 AM MDT FRI APR 9 2010

.DISCUSSION...THE COLD FRONT THAT MOVED THROUGH NORTHERN UTAH
LAST EVENING HAS STALLED SOUTH OF THE BURN SITE...PROVIDING GUSTY
NORTH-NORTHWESTERLY WINDS TO MUCH OF THE AREA. WINDS SHOULD BE
RELATIVELY CONSISTENT THROUGHOUT THE DAY...AS THE SURFACE
PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL WEAKEN THROUGH THE DAYLIGHT HOURS...BUT
SOMEWHAT STRONGER WINDS ABOVE THE SURFACE WILL MIX BETTER IN THE
AFTERNOON. CLEARING AND MIXING DOES NOT LOOK AS GOOD AS IT DID
YESTERDAY...BUT COMBINED WITH DECENT TRANSPORT WINDS SHOULD BE
GOOD ENOUGH TO GET CLEARING INDICES JUST ABOVE 500. ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL
LINGER ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH THROUGH THE DAY...BUT MOST OF THIS
PRECIPITATION IS LIGHT...AND THE CHANCE OF WETTING RAIN IS ONLY
10%. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE AREA TONIGHT INTO
TOMORROW...WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS INCREASING AGAIN SATURDAY
AFTERNOON.
