AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ELKO NV
413 PM PDT MON APR 16 2007

.SYNOPSIS...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE GREAT BASIN TONIGHT.
WINDS WILL INCREASE OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST TUESDAY AHEAD OF AN
APPROACHING COLD FRONT THAT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE STATE TUESDAY
AFTERNOON AND NIGHT. ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE NORTHWEST NEVADA TUESDAY AFTERNOON...WITH SCATTERED SNOW
SHOWERS TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY ACROSS NORTHERN NEVADA.
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN COOL THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK.
&&

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY. A 500MB TROF WILL MOVE
QUICKLY OVER THE AREA TONIGHT...WITH THE WINDS BACKING TO THE
SOUTHWEST FRIDAY AHEAD OF THE NEXT SHORT WAVE/FRONT. WINDS WILL
INCREASE TO 20 TO 30 MPH IN THE AFTERNOON ACROSS MUCH OF THE FA.
ADVISORY WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE TONOPAH AREA. THE SHORT TERM
MODELS AGREE ON THE COLD FRONT MOVING THRU MOST OF THE FA DURING
THE DURING THE DAY TUESDAY...CLEARING WHITE PINE COUNTY BY 06Z
TUESDAY NIGHT...WITH SCATTERED PRECIP IN THE FORM OF SNOW SHOWERS
BEHIND THE FRONT. 700MB TEMPERATURES SHOULD CRASH BETWEEN 00Z AND
06Z...FALLING TO -13C NORTH AND -9C SOUTH BY 12Z. AN INCH OR TWO
ACCUMULATION WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS...WITH A
DUSTING TO AN INCH POSSIBLE IN VALLEYS AS FAR SOUTH AS EKO.
TEMPERATURES WEDNESDAY WILL BE ABOUT 20 DEGREES COLDER THAN TUESDAY.
SNOW SHOWERS WILL MOVE EAST WEDNESDAY EVENING...WITH WEAK HIGH
PRESSURE THURSDAY.

WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF SPEED OF COLD FRONT BACKS OFF A BIT
AND CAA IS NOT QUITE AS STRONG AS EXPECTED. HOWEVER...EVEN IF THIS
HAPPENS...SHOULD NOT SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGE THE FORECAST. ALSO ANY SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS WEDNESDAY SHOULD BE IN MORNING...AS TEMPS RISE ABOVE
40 IN THE AFTERNOON. REA

.LONG TERM...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY. AN ACTIVE PATTERN WILL
CONTINUE OVER THE GREAT BASIN AS A SERIES OF H5 TROUGHS AND
ASSOCIATED SURFACE FRONTS PROGRESS STEADILY THRU THE REGION AND
CAUSE LIGHT TO POSSIBLY MODERATE AMOUNTS OF PRECIP. NEVADA WILL SEE
INCREASING CLOUDS IN ADVANCE OF THE NEXT DIGGING H5 TROUGH THURS
AFTERNOON WITH PRECIP STARTING THURS NIGHT AND SPREADING ACROSS CWA
DURING THE DAY FRI. ATTM IT LOOKS THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING A MAINLY
MOUNTAIN SNOW AND VALLEY RAIN/SNOW MIX EVENT TO THE CWA AS H7 TEMPS
REMAIN AROUND -6C TO -8C AND SNOW LEVELS 4500-5500 FEET. QPF TOTALS
WITH THIS SYSTEM THRU SAT AM ARE FAIRLY LOW...0.2 AT EKO AND
WMC...0.3 INCHES AT TPH AND 0.35 TO 0.5 INCHES AT ELY...AUSTIN AND
EUREKA...EXPECT ONLY 1-2 INCHES OF SNOW MAX. AFTER A SHORT-LIVED
DIRTY RIDGE ON SAT AFTERNOON...THE NEXT H5 TROUGH PUSHES INTO WRN NV
ON SAT EVENING...CAUSING MORE PRECIP OVER NRN NV DURING THE NIGHT
BEFORE SPREADING ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA BY SUN AFTERNOON. THIS
DISTURBANCE WILL LINGER ACROSS THE REGION THRU MON AND BRING
POTENTIALLY HIGHER QPF AMOUNTS...0.6 TO 0.8 INCHES...TO PORTIONS OF
SRN LANDER/EUREKA...WHITE PINE AND NRN NYE COUNTIES. IT LOOKS LIKE
H7 TEMPS WILL BE TOO WARM...-4C TO -6C...FOR VALLEY SNOW BUT WILL
HAVE TO REEVALUATE AS WE GET CLOSER TO THAT TIME PERIOD. DURING THIS
UNSETTLED PERIOD...HIGH TEMPS IN THE CWA WILL BE ABOUT 8-15 DEG F
BELOW NORMAL EACH DAY. HOWEVER...EXTENSIVE CLOUD COVER AND LACK OF
STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL KEEP LOW TEMPS WITHIN A FEW DEGREES
OF NORMAL. AWG
&&

.AVIATION...SOME ISOLATED RAIN SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF TWEB ROUTE 406...INCLUDING THE KELY AREA...THIS
AFTERNOON THRU EARLY THIS EVENING AS AN UPPER LOW SLOWLY MOVES
SOUTHEASTWARD THROUGH ARIZONA. FURTHER NORTH...A SCATTERED CUMULUS
CLOUD DECK AROUND 6000-10000 FEET DEVELOPED FROM NEAR KEKO SOUTHWARD
TO JUST NORTH OF KELY...IT WILL PERSIST IN THOSE AREAS UNTIL JUST
AFTER SUNSET. WIND GUSTS ALONG ALL THREE TWEB ROUTES WILL GENERALLY
NOT REACH ANY HIGHER THAN 10-20 KNOTS ALTHOUGH THERE WILL BE SOME
GUSTS UP TO 30 KNOTS IN THE KTPH AREA. AWG
&&

.LKN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.
