::: DECREASEING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS :::
SUMMARY FOR THE NEXT 6 DAYS -//> UPDATED FOR SATURDAY, JULY 31st...Today and Sunday -> Decreasing thunderstorms; A drier westerly flow aloft develops as a trough of low pressure carves out across the Northwest US again. This cuts off a lot of the moisture that was moving in, and will decrease thunderstorm and shower coverage to isolated by Sunday (continued scattered thunderstorms over southern Utah as more moisture remains across that area).
Monday through Thursday -> Isolated thunderstorms, warmer; High pressure which has been centered to the southeast starts to build in and shift westward. Due to this we expect isolated afternoon thunderstorms and potential showers to continue isolated, plus temperatures are expected to rise.

Long range forecast / discussion...August 05 to 08--Late next week and weekend we see warm and mostly dry August weather, including isolated thunderstorms and warmer (very warm) temperatures, otherwise mostly sunny/ partly cloudy skies through about the 10th or so as high pressure sits over the west, and some moisture rotates around the large high center.
The El Nino SST pattern is now neutral, and a La Nina SST pattern will likely take over for the coming fall/ winter, through possibly the season following (through 2012). This usually bodes well for northern Utah resorts. We will work on some snowfall comparisons for similar La Nina years as we get closer. CM
