SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...BIG PICTURE SHOWED BROAD SLIGHTLY
BUILDING RIDGE IN GULF OF ALASKA WITH STRONG OF 120-130KTS SATELLITE
WINDS OFFSHORE OREGON INTO NE CA.  AS A RESULT UPPER LOW DRIFTING ESE
PAST 12HRS COULD CONTINUE THAT WAY A LITTLE LONGER AS IT MOVES ACROSS
SW MT TOWARD WYOMING.  STORM CRANKING UP IN NEBRASKA-SD NOW BEGINNING
TO GET DEEPER MOISTURE INVOLVED ACROSS IA...N NEBRASKA AND SD AND
BEGINNING TO BE ADVECTED INTO CONVEYOR BELT OF MOISTURE ACROSS MONTANA.
WRAP AROUND BAND TRYING TO BRING SOME OF THAT MOISTURE ACROSS N CENTRAL
TO W CENTRAL MONTANA AND ON INTO INTERIOR N TO CENTRAL IDAHO AND EVEN
WRAPPING BACK AROUND NE AND E CENTRAL OREGON INTO SW IDAHO.   COULD BE
A TRUELY HISTORIC MILESTONE IF A LITTLE MORE COLDER AIR CAN MAKE IT INTO
SW IDAHO SO THAT KBOI MAY JUST SEE SOME SNOW BEFORE ALL IS SAID AND DONE
WITH THIS HIGHLY ANOMALOUS PATTERN THAT WILL END AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES
FARTHER AWAY ON DURING THE DAY WED.  STRETCHING AND DEFORMATION OVER N
CENTRAL TO W CENTRAL MONTANA INTO C IDAHO WILL ALLOW FOR STEADY LIGHT
TO MODERATE PRECIP THAT WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT SOUTH AND SE WITH UPPER
LOW MOVEMENT TOWARD AND INTO WYOMING OVERNIGHT AND DURING THE DAY WED.
PRETTY WET SOILS FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR N AND WESTERN MONTANA INTO N HALF
OF IDAHO...SO WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR FOR ISOLATED FLOOD PROBLEMS NEXT
12 TO 18HRS.   WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR...SEE SATELLITE ANALYSIS GRAPHIC
