DISCUSSION...Several west-east oriented snow bands have developed in the vicinity of a surface front across northwest Wyoming. The snow bands south of the surface front are developing amid strong low-level convergence and weak instability (50-100 J/kg MLCAPE per SPC mesoanalysis). Bands north of the front are developing amid more elevated instability and frontogenetical forcing. Nonetheless, these bands are expected to persist through the day as the front drifts southward.=20 While winds of 20-25 mph and moderate to heavy snow are leading to some visibility restrictions south of the front, the greater visibility restrictions are being observed north of the front. Expect this trend to continue as temperatures plummet to -10 to -20F and northerly winds develop amid falling snow. This arctic airmass and drier snow should support greater visibility restriction. ...Bentley.. 12/21/2022 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6XIi0OQRBeh9Vc8I29glHVDWBGBqErOpzMYagV8uARkqDVKGm_Aalb7GqoXQZswHQoDDGGrtP= j-cHXYE8et3tBoQffQ$ for graphic product...
