AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ELKO NV
151 PM PST SAT JAN 26 2008

.SYNOPSIS...WEAK HIGH PRESSURE OVER NORTHERN AND CENTRAL NEVADA
WILL KEEP MOST LOCATIONS DRY THROUGH THIS EVENING. A COMPLEX WINTER

STARTING LATE TONIGHT...AND TO NORTHERN NEVADA SUNDAY AND MONDAY.
ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM WILL BRING A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS TO THE
REGION TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.
&&

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY. SYSTEM DROPPING SOUTH FROM
PACIFIC NORTHWEST FORECASTED TO KICK OUT AND REPLACE SYSTEM CURRENTLY
LINGERING OVER CA LAST SEVERAL DAYS. WEAK RIDGE REMAINS OVER CWA WITH
MAIN DYNAMICS OVER SOUTHERN NV OVERNIGHT...THEREFORE HAVE LOWERED
POPS FOR TONIGHT. MIN TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE ABOUT 10 DEGREES WARMER

ALOFT FOR MIXING AND INCREASING CLOUD COVER. BY SUNDAY MORNING...SNOW
IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN TO MOVE INTO NORTHERN NYE COUNTY AS THE CLOSED
LOW OPENS...AND THE TROF MAKES ITS INLAND INTO SOUTHERN CA. MAIN
ENERGY AND MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL MOVE OVER
SOUTHERN NEVADA. MODELS SUGGEST SNOW AMOUNTS OF 2 TO 5 INCHES...AND
EXPECT THE SNOW MAINLY ALONG THE COLD FRONT AS WINDS WILL DRY OUT
LOWER LEVELS. THE SURFACE LOW OVER NORTHERN NEVADA SUNDAY...COMBINED
WITH HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED SOUTHEAST OF NEVADA...WILL LEAD TO A
MODERATE SOUTHEASTERLY SURFACE GRADIENT SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT OVER
CENTRAL NEVADA AND AREAS EAST OF THE RUBY MOUNTAINS. H7 WINDS SUNDAY
AFTERNOON OVER EAST-CENTRAL NEVADA WILL BE SW AT 40KTS. THEREFORE
WITH THE COUPLING OF THE SURFACE AND UPPER LEVEL WINDS ON SUNDAY...
WINDY CONDITIONS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS CWA...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
GUSTS OF 60 MPH ON SOME OF THE HIGHER ELEVATION PASSES ALONG HIGHWAY
50 AND HIGHWAY 93 OVER CENTRAL NEVADA. THE NEXT UPSTREAM SYSTEM...THE
ONE FROM PACIFIC NORTHWEST WILL BEGIN TO MOVE INTO HUMBOLDT COUNTY
AROUND MIDNIGHT SUNDAY NIGHT. SNOW IN COMBINATION WITH THE STRONG
WINDS WILL LEAD TO VERY LOW VISIBILITIES AT TIMES...ALONG WITH
DRIFTING SNOW. SUNDAY NIGHT WITH THE SURFACE LOW CENTERED TO THE
NORTHEAST OF NEVADA...AND PVA MOVING IN FROM THE NORTHWEST...
MOUNTAINOUS AREAS AND NORTHERLY FACING SLOPES NEAR MOUNTAINS COULD
SEE HEAVY SNOWFALLS OVERNIGHT AND INTO MONDAY. THEREFORE FROM THE

MONDAY LATE AFTN IN THE AFTN PACKAGE. HARMER

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...MODELS IN GOOD
AGREEMENT...SHOWING UNSETTLED PATTERN CONTINUING THROUGH THE END OF
NEXT WEEK. GFS AND ECMWF SHOW NUMEROUS QUICK MOVING SHORTWAVES
PUSHING ACROSS NRN AND CNTRL NV...WITH ONLY A BRIEF BREAK LATE
WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. OTHERWISE...SNOW SHOWERS ACTIVITY IS
EXPECTED IN NORTHWESTERLY FLOW THROUGH THE WEEK...WITH THE ONLY
EXCEPTION BEING ON FRIDAY WHERE A MORE SIGNIFICANT STORM SYSTEM IS

SYSTEM PUSHING ACROSS NRN AND EAST CNTRL NV FRIDAY...WITH A STRONG
COLD FRONT SLOWLY PUSHING ACROSS THE AREA. MOST GFS ENSEMBLE
PERTURBATIONS SHOW UPPER LEVEL TROUGH DIGGING ALONG THE WEST COAST
AS THE SYSTEM SLOWLY PUSHES ONSHORE...SO MAY NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON
THIS SYSTEM FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF A PROLONGED SNOW EVENT. 12Z
OPERATIONAL RUNS NOT SHOWING THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AXIS DIGGING
ALONG THE WEST COAST AS MUCH AS THE ENSEMBLES...SO WILL NOT GREATLY
INCREASE POPS JUST YET. MAX TEMPS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW
