.SHORT TERM...
UPPER TROUGH MOVING INTO WESTERN UTAH THIS AFTERNOON WITH A COLD
UNSTABLE NORTHWEST FLOW OVER ALL OF NV. SNOW SHOWERS HAVE ENDED OVER
NEVADA PORTIONS OF THE CWA AS THE AIRMASS BEGINS TO STABILIZE BUT
WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING OVER LASSEN COUNTY AND ALONG THE
SIERRA TO MONO COUNTY. RIDGING OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC WITH
OVERRUNNING CLOUDS AND PRECIP APPROACHING THE OREGON/NORTHERN CA
COAST. THIS OVERRUNNING PRECIP IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO LASSEN AND
NORTHERN WASHOE COUNTIES LATER TONIGHT...AHEAD OF MODELS WHICH TEND
TO BE TOO SLOW WITH WARM ADVECTION PRECIP. THE RIDGE WILL NOT LAST
LONG AS A VIGOROUS SHORT WAVE RIDES A 150 KNOT JETSTREAM ACROSS THE
GULF OF ALASKA AND INTO NORTHERN CA LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. A WINTER STORMS WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE CA PORTION OF
THE OUR CWA FROM TAHOE NORTH INTO LASSEN COUNTY FOR SATURDAY
AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THIS SYSTEM WILL PRIME THE
AIRMASS FOR AN EVEN STRONGER SYSTEM DUE TO ARRIVE LATE MONDAY AND
CONTINUE INTO TUESDAY. BETWEEN THESE SYSTEMS A FLAT UPPER RIDGE WILL
PROVIDE SOME BREAK IN THE PRECIPITATION BUT LIGHT PRECIP WILL
CONTINUE MAINLY NORTH OF TAHOE. WINDS WILL INCREASE OVER EASTERN CA
AND WESTERN NV SATURDAY EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY. WIND SPEEDS ARE
EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW WARNING CRITERIA AS TEMPERATURE PROFILES
ARE NOT FAVORABLE FOR DAMAGING WINDS. ADVISORIES FOR THE WINDS ARE
STILL A POSSIBILITY AND CAN BE ADDRESSED IN LATER SHIFTS. THE WINDS
WOULD DIMINISH SOMEWHAT SUNDAY EVENING AS THE SHORT WAVE PULLED
AWAY. ANOTHER ROUND OF STRONG WINDS ARE POSSIBLE MONDAY AFTERNOON AS
THE NEXT WAVE APPROACHES. RC

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
EXTREMELY ACTIVE WINTER WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE
THROUGH THE END OF NEXT WEEK. A STRONG WINTER STORM WILL CONTINUE TO
AFFECT NORTHEASTERN CAL AND WESTERN NV TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. A
MAJOR SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL PASS OVER THE CWA TUESDAY...WHICH WILL
BRING STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION TO THE REGION. THIS WILL DROP SNOW
LEVELS BELOW 3000 FEET. THE JET STREAM WILL SWING DOWN THE PACIFIC
COAST...WHICH PICK UP QUITE A BIT OF MOISTURE BEFORE SLAMMING IT
INTO THE SIERRA. EXCELLENT DYNAMICS ARE EXPECTED...WITH THIS
MATCHING UP WELL WITH A MAJOR SNOW PATTERN. AT THIS TIME...QPF PROGS
LOOK TO BE VERY HIGH...WITH ALL MEDIUM RANGE MODELS IN GOOD
AGREEMENT. CONFIDENCE WITH THIS SYSTEM REMAINS HIGH. SIGNIFICANT
SNOWFALL IS EXPECTED WITH THIS STORM...AS IT COULD EASILY DROP OVER
2 FEET OF SNOW IN THE SIERRA AND SEVERAL INCHES ON THE WESTERN NV
VALLEY FLOORS THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. RAISED POPS IN THE RENO ZONE
FOR TUESDAY TO LIKELY. ALSO...RAISED POPS FOR NORTHEASTERN CAL
TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY TO CHANCE. STRONG WINDS CAN ALSO BE
EXPECTED TUESDAY AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT...WITH 700MB WINDS OF 50 TO
60 KNOTS. WEAK RIDGING SHOULD BRIEFLY BUILD IN TUESDAY NIGHT.

DONT PUT UP THOSE SNOW SHOVELS YET IT LOOKS LIKE YET ANOTHER
WINTER STORM MAY BE ON THE HORIZON FOR WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY...BUT
CONFIDENCE IS NOT AS HIGH WITH THIS ONE. POPS MAY NEED TO BE RAISED
BY THE FOLLOWING SHIFTS...IF MED RANGE MODELS STAY CONSISTENT ENOUGH
WITH THIS SECOND WAVE COMING THROUGH. HOON
