NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
1036 AM MST MON NOV 15 2010

.DISCUSSION....NORTHERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPLY A GOOD
MOISTURE TAP INTO THE SUNSET NORTH AREA...LOW HANGING CLOUDS AND
LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS WILL REMAIN A THREAT TODAY AS A RESULT. WEAK

THE EAST TODAY ALLOWING PARTIAL CLEARING FOR A WINDOW LATE THIS

CHANGE IN NET FLOW ALOFT...EXPECT WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY FIRE
WEATHER CONCERN TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT. SPEEDS SHOULD PEAK THIS
AFTERNOON THEN DISSIPATE SLIGHTLY OVERNIGHT. A SECONDARY
DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE INTO NORTHERN UTAH TUESDAY. EXPECT ANOTHER
BURST OF WINDS TO DEVELOP DURING THE AFTERNOON AS A RESULT...WITH
YET ANOTHER INFLUX OF LOW HANGING CLOUDS TO THE AREA.
