AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RENO NV
305 PM PST FRI FEB 29 2008

.SHORT TERM...
SYSTEM NOW COMING ONSHORE HAS LIMITED MOISTURE WITH JUST A BAND OF
SHOWERS ALONG THE COLD FRONT. MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT FOR THE
NEXT 24 HRS WITH RESPECT TO SENSIBLE WEATHER. HAVE BUMPED POPS
NORTH OF SUSANVILLE/GERLACH TO SHOW NUMEROUS SHOWERS ALONG THE
FRONT AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. DOMR GOOD FRONTOGENESIS UP THERE
ALONG WITH ENOUGH MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY SHOULD BE ABEL TO
PRODUCE A FEW MORE SHOWERS. OTHERWISE...AS FRONT MOVES SOUTH
DURING THE MORNING HOURS...FORCING WEAKENS AND SHOULD ONLY SEE
ISOLATED SHOWERS AT BEST AS FAR SOUTH AS HIGHWAY 50. BEHIND THE
FRONT...EXPECT SCT SHOWERS MAINLY NORTH OF I-80 THAT WILL
GRADUALLY DECREASE DURING THE DAY.

MAIN CONCERN HOWEVER WILL BE THE WINDS. 700 MB WINDS AT 40 KTS
CURRENTLY ARE FORECAST TO INCREASE TO 60-70 KTS AT 12Z. CURRENT
GUSTS ON THE SIERRA RIDGES ARE 75+ MPH SO WINDS ARE THERE. WINDS
ARE HAVING A BIT OF TROUBLE MIXING TO THE SURFACE ATTM AS THEY ARE
FIGHTING THE SFC GRADIENT. HOWEVER...EXPECT WINDS TO INCREASE ALL
AREAS BY 12Z. MAIN POSITIVES FOR A STRONG WIND EVENT...FOCUSED
RENO INTO MONO COUNTY...ARE A CRITICAL LEVEL DEVELOPING NEAR MTN
TOP LEVEL AROUND THE TIME OF STRONGEST 700 MB WINDS AND A DECENTWEST
TO EAST SFC PRESSURE GRADIENT. NEGATIVES ARE POSSIBLE LACK OF
PRECIP LOADING ON THE WEST SLOPE AND TIME OF DAY (NOT A
SIGNIFICANT FACTOR THIS TIME OF YEAR). WITH MODELS SHOWING A
TROPOPAUSE FOLD ARRIVING WITH THE FRONT AT 12Z...WILL ISSUE A
WARNING FOR RENO/MONO FOCUSED ON THE WIND PRONE AREAS. EXPECT
MAINLY ADVISORY LEVEL WIND SPEEDS IN MOST VALLEY LOCATIONS.

ELSEWHERE...ADVISORIES LOOK GOOD FOR LASSEN/TAHOE AND MINERAL
COUNTY. MY ONLY CONCERN IS THAT TAHOE MAY REACH WARNING CRITERIA
IN SOME AREAS BUT WILL LET SWING SHIFT MONITOR THE RISE IN SPEEDS.
AS FOR AS ZONES 5/70 THERMODYNAMIC PROFILES DO NOT LOOK IMPRESSIVE
AS IT IS A BIT MORE UNSTABLE THERE AND MORE FAVORABLE FOR A BIT OF
SPILLOVER.

AFTER THE FRONT PASSES TOMORROW MORNING EXPECT BREEZY WEST TO
NORTHWEST WINDS WITH TEMPS ABOUT 15 DEGREES COOLER THAN TODAY.
EXPECT WINDS TO SHIFT TO THE NORTHEAST OVERNIGHT SAT WITH SOME
GUSTS TO 50 MPH POSSIBLE OVER RIDGES...BUT LIGHTER IN VALLEYS.
WITH LIGHT NE FLOW CONTINUING SUN WILL LEAVE TEMPS COOL UNDER
DEVELOPING WEAK INVERSIONS. A WARMUP IS EXPECTED MONDAY AHEAD OF A
WEAK SYSTEM PASSING WELL TO THE NORTHWEST AS FLOW SWITCHES TO THE
WEST. DO NOT EXPECT TEMPS TO BE AS WARM AS TODAY HOWEVER. WALLMANN

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
NO MAJOR CHANGES TO LONG TERM FORECAST. STILL EXPECTING AN UPPER
RIDGE TO SET UP OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC BY MIDWEEK...WITH TROUGHING
OVER THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN CONUS. PIECE OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY WILL
PUSH DOWN THE BACKSIDE OF THE RIDGE AN INTO THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST
BY TUESDAY. STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH THE TRACK OF THIS
SHORTWAVE...WITH 12Z GFS KEEPING COLDEST AIR WELL EAST OF THE RENO
AREA. PREFER THE ECMWF/GFS ENS MEAN SOLUTION...WITH A BACKDOOR COLD
FRONT PUSHING THROUGH THE WESTERN GREAT BASIN TUESDAY AND THE JET
CUTTING OFF OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST WEDNESDAY. FLOW ALOFT WILL
BECOME MORE NORTH TO NORTHEASTERLY BRINGING COLDER AIR TO THE REGION
THROUGH WEDNESDAY. MAY NEED TO GO EVEN LOWER WITH FORECAST TEMPS
TUE/WED. RIDGING MOVES BACK INTO THE WEST COAST BY THU/FRI WITH
TEMPS BACK ON THE RISE.  HOON

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR THROUGH THE PERIOD. CEILINGS COULD LOWER TO MVFR WITH MOUNTAIN
OBSCUREMENT AS COLD FRONT AFFECTS THE TERMINALS 10Z-14Z SATURDAY.
NOT EXPECTING MUCH IN THE WAY OF PRECIP... 25% CHANCE OF SNOW AT
KTVL AND KTRK... BUT NO ACCUMULATIONS EXPECTED.

WINDS WILL INCREASE ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE NIGHT DUE TO
APPROACHING COLD FRONT. EXPECT MOUNTAIN WAVE TO DEVELOP DOWNWIND OF
THE SIERRA WITH RIDGE TOPS GUSTS AS HIGH AS 80 KTS...GOOD CHANCE OF
MODERATE TO SEVERE TURBULENCE ABOVE RIDGETOP LEVEL. SURFACE GUSTS
