SPOT FORECAST FOR UINTAH
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
830 PM MDT THU JUL 5 2012

.DISCUSSION...CONVECTION WILL BE WANING TONIGHT WITH THE LOSS OF
DAYTIME HEATING. HOWEVER...ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE STILL POSSIBLE
THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. THESE STORMS ARE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
WETTING RAIN...WHILE GUSTY WINDS ARE ALSO A POSSIBILITY.
OTHERWISE...A MOIST AIRMASS IN PLACE WILL RESULT IN EXCELLENT
OVERNIGHT HUMIDITY RECOVERIES. THE AIRMASS WILL DRY A BIT
TOMORROW...WITH TEMPERATURES ALSO REBOUNDING. HOWEVER...WIDELY
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR WETTING RAIN ARE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AGAIN TOMORROW. THESE STORMS TOMORROW WILL
MOSTLY BE DIURNAL IN NATURE. THE WARMING/DRYING TREND WILL CONTINUE
INTO THE WEEKEND...BUT ENOUGH MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY WILL REMAIN
IN PLACE TO KEEP SOME CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS IN PLACE.
OTHERWISE...WINDS OUTSIDE OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN
RELATIVELY LIGHT THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
