    Mesoscale Discussion 1743
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1231 PM CST Sun Dec 30 2018

    Areas affected...Portions of southeast Idaho and northern Great
    Basin

    Concerning...Heavy snow

    Valid 301831Z - 310030Z

    SUMMARY...Snow squalls are possible across portions of
    southern/eastern Idaho and into northern Utah/Nevada through the
    afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...An upper-level shortwave trough is sliding
    southeastward over the northern Rockies with a cold front pushing
    southeast across the northern Intermountain West. Along/near the
    surface cold front snow squalls and heavy snow are possible across
    portions of southern/eastern Idaho and northern Nevada/Utah as the
    upper-level trough spreads forcing for ascent aloft over the area.
    Low-level lapse rates will steepen (6.5 C/km - 9 C/km) this
    afternoon and provide sufficient instability within moist layers,
    including the dendritic growth zone (-12 C to -17 C), to support
    heavy snow per RAP/HRRR forecasts. Shallow convection could also
    locally enhance snowfall rates and surface winds. Strong winds will
    accompany the snow squalls/heavy snow with sustained winds of 15-25
    mph and gusts exceeding 30 mph.
