SPOT FORECAST FOR AVON 2
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
1010 AM MDT FRI JUL 12 2013

.DISCUSSION...THE AVON 2 FIRE WILL BE ON THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN
MOISTURE MOVING NORTH NORTHEAST ACROSS THE REGION AND SOMEWHAT
DRIER AIR TRYING TO PUSH IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST. THIS BOUNDARY WILL
SLIDE JUST EAST OF YOU BY NOON TODAY BUT BEING ON THE CUSP OF
MOISTURE COULD EASILY BACKFIRE AS SUNSHINE WILL TEND TO MAKE THE
ATMOSPHERE MORE UNSTABLE. AT CURRENT TIME THE BEST THREAT OF
THUNDERSTORMS WILL COME AFTER 2000 THIS EVENING WHEN AN EMBEDDED
DISTURBANCE IN THE FLOW MOVES ACROSS THE AREA. HOWEVER...THAT IS NOT
TO SAY AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM IS POSSIBLE THIS
AFTERNOON. GUSTY WINDS WOULD BE THE MAIN CONCERN IF ANYTHING
DEVELOPS THIS AFTERNOON.
