455 AM MDT WED MAR 14 2012

.DISCUSSION...SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE
REGION THROUGHOUT THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK RESULTING IN
EXCELLENT VENTILATION. THE FLOW ALOFT WILL DECREASE A BIT TODAY
OVER WHAT WAS OBSERVED YESTERDAY...AND THIS SHOULD YIELD WINDS
CLOSE TO OR SLIGHTLY BELOW WHAT WAS OBSERVED TUESDAY.

HOWEVER...SOME OF THE HIGH RESOLUTION GUIDANCE IS SUGGESTING A
WIND SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST BETWEEN 1400-1500 THIS AFTERNOON
ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LAKE BREEZE. ALTHOUGH THIS
HAS NOT MATERIALIZED THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS...THERE IS A 40
PERCENT CHANCE THIS WIND SHIFT OCCURS.

OTHERWISE A CANOPY OF MID LEVEL CLOUDS WILL LIKELY LINGER ACROSS
THE AREA TODAY WITH ANY BREAKS FEW AND FAR BETWEEN.

NEARLY IDENTICAL CONDITIONS EXPECTED ON THURSDAY. SOUTHERLY WINDS
ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE FRIDAY...AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD
FRONT WHICH WILL CROSS THE AREA LATE SATURDAY. A RETURN TO COLD
AND WET WEATHER IS EXPECTED SUNDAY THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK.
