355 AM PST THU FEB 2 2006

.SHORT TERM...
STRONG LEE SHADOWING WITH RIDGETOP WINDS GUSTING OVER 70 MPH IS
KEEPING WINDS UP IN NORTHEAST CALIFORNIA AND FAR WESTERN NEVADA THIS
MORNING. IN FACT...WHILE THE TAHOE RIDGES ARE RECEIVING .05 TO .10
INCHES OF PRECIP AN HOUR...THE SOUTH LAKE TAHOE AIRPORT IS GETTING A
ONLY A TRACE TO .01 AN HOUR OF PRECIP...SO EVEN THE LAKE TAHOE BASIN
IS EXPERIENCING SHADOWING THIS MORNING.

A VERY SHARP CUTOFF FOR PRECIP CHANCES TODAY OUTSIDE OF THE
IMMEDIATE LEE SIDE OF THE SIERRA AS ATMOSPHERIC STABILITY INCREASES
WITH WARMING ALOFT. THE CURRENT SNOW LEVEL IS BETWEEN 7500 AND 8000
FEET PER MOUNTAIN TOP OBSERVATIONS NEAR LAKE TAHOE. HOWEVER...PRECIP
RATES ARE NOT ESPECIALLY HIGH SO IT SHOULD NOT CAUSE TOO MUCH RUNOFF
CONCERN.

MILD HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE THROUGH FRIDAY AS A WEAK RIDGE
OF HIGH PRESSURE DOES LITTLE TO LIMIT MIXING TO AT LEAST MOUNTAIN
TOP THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS. THE NEXT CHANCE FOR PRECIP...AT LEAST
NORTH OF INTERSTATE 80 AND ALONG THE SIERRA CREST COMES SATURDAY AS
THE LAST TROUGH FOR A WHILE AFFECTS THE REGION. THE GFS HAS TRENDED
DEEPER WITH ITS 06Z RUN...BUT THE UPPER JET STILL ONLY SAGS TO NEAR
LAKE TAHOE. WITH THE DEEPEST MOISTURE AND POST FRONTAL
INSTABILITY/COLD AIR ALOFT EXPECTED OVER NORTHERN NEVADA AND 50+ KTS
OF WIND AT 700 MB...STRONG SHADOWING LOOKS LIKELY SOUTH OF ABOUT
INTERSTATE 80. OF MORE CONCERN IS THE POSSIBILITY OF HIGH WINDS IN
THE LEE OF THE SIERRA WITH THE STRONG SHADOWING AND GOOD SOUTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT. THE ONLY THING TO LIMIT THE WINDS WILL BE THE TIMING OF
A FRONTAL PASSAGE INTO THE GREAT BASIN SATURDAY. AT THIS TIME...IT
LOOKS LIKE THE HEAVIEST PRECIP WILL BE HITTING THE LAKE TAHOE AREA
IN THE LATE MORNING...WHICH WOULD ALLOW FOR STRONG WINDS TO GET
GOING IN THE LEE. TEMPERATURES ARE QUITE TRICKY SATURDAY...AS A
LATER FROPA WOULD ALLOW FOR A TEMPERATURE SPIKE IN THE MORNING WITH
STEADY OR FALLING AFTERNOON TEMPS FOR THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE
REGION. I USED THE EXPECTED GFS 700 MB TEMPS AT 18Z SATURDAY TO
JUDGE THE APPROXIMATE HIGHS FOR THE REGION FOR NOW (AS WE WILL BE
WELL MIXED). SNYDER

.LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...
STRONG UPPER RIDGE TO CONTROL THE WEATHER OVER THE REGION DURING
THIS TIME FRAME. LIGHT SURFACE WINDS WILL RESULT IN LIMITED DAYTIME
MIXING ALTHOUGH THE ABSENCE OF ANTECEDENT COLD AIR IN THE VALLEYS
SHOULD ALLOW FOR ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES. OTHERWISE DRY AND
STABLE. HOHMANN
