The local NWS in SLC runs a 4km WRF as I'm sure you know and they have several point forecasts http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/slc/projects/wrf/ARW_text/ARW_text.htm around the state but it is not picking up the local canyon winds or thermal winds very well. If this is something you can pull out for one point over Utah Lake that could be posted to the web that would be great, I could even get the Utah Water Ski Club to pay you for your effort.Scot Chipmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17650190017905455606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6168620747792092240.post-80464186507310364362015-06-17T16:31:31.100-06:002015-06-17T16:31:31.100-06:00That seems like something that might be out there ...That seems like something that might be out there already.

Anyway to pull out the hourly wind forecasts for a specific point?Scot Chipmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17650190017905455606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6168620747792092240.post-23804247396917845262015-06-17T14:36:29.700-06:002015-06-17T14:36:29.700-06:00The forecast above is for 6 PM tonight, not 2:30, ...The forecast above is for 6 PM tonight, not 2:30, so don't give the HRRR to much credit :-).<br /><br />Also, given how dry it is in the low levels, it's not uncommon for the HRRR to produce decent composite radar reflectivities, but little precip at the ground due to evaporation at low levels. There's a 1-h precip product on weather.utah.edu that might be a better choice for comparing with observations.<br />Jim Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15799757451626876963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6168620747792092240.post-40284831889581686932015-06-17T14:28:52.931-06:002015-06-17T14:28:52.931-06:00Wow, I tuned into this at 2:30 PM (MT) and noticed...Wow, I tuned into this at 2:30 PM (MT) and noticed that there is a small area of rain near West Yellowstone. See it up there?. So I go to the Old Faithful live web cam and sure enough it looks like it rained there. <br /><br />Does anyone know if it rained at Currie, NV at that time? Bubbanoreply@blogger.com
