AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
922 PM PST SAT JAN 5 2008

.SYNOPSIS...THE FIRST PACIFIC STORM WHICH CROSSED OVER THE SOUTHERN
GREAT BASIN AND MOJAVE DESERT LAST NIGHT AND TODAY WILL CONTINUE
EAST TONIGHT...HOWEVER THE NEXT PACIFIC STORM WILL MOVE INTO THE
SOUTHERN SIERRA TONIGHT AND CROSS OVER SOUTHERN NEVADA ON SUNDAY.
THIS SECOND SYSTEM WILL ONCE AGAIN SPREAD A CHANCE OF RAIN AND SNOW
ACROSS THE AREA BEFORE DRYING TAKES PLACE LATE MONDAY. IN ADDITION
TO THE RAIN AND SNOW...LOCAL GUSTY WINDS WILL ALSO BE SEEN TONIGHT
AND INTO SUNDAY.
&&

.UPDATE...DEEP MOISTURE PLUME HAS WORKED WELL SOUTH OF THE AREA WITH
SOUTHERN MOHAVE COUNTY STILL LYING ALONG THE NORTHERN BORDER WHERE
PW VALUES ARE GREATER THAN A HALF AN INCH. STRONG JET CUTTING ACROSS
SOUTHERN ZONES THIS EVENING LIFTING MOISTURE OVER NORTHWEST ARIZONA
WHERE IT APPEARS WARM-RAIN PROCESSES ARE OCCURRING WITH MODERATE TO
HEAVY RAIN OCCURRING AT TIMES AROUND KINGMAN. RADAR ALSO INDICATING
SOME TRAINING OF CELLS OCCURRING. AS JET AND MOISTURE CONTINUE TO
SAG SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT RAINFALL OVER MOHAVE COUNTY WILL DIMINISH
AFTER MIDNIGHT. SATELLITE SHOWS THE CENTRAL PART OF THE FORECAST
AREA WHICH INCLUDES MOST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA AND EASTERN CALIFORNIA
IN A BREAK WITH PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY
SHOWS NEXT SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVING INTO CENTRAL CALIFORNIA WITH IR
IMAGERY SHOWING ENHANCED CLOUDS MOVING INTO THE FAR WESTERN ZONES
WITH LIGHT RAIN NOW BEING REPORTED AND BISHOP AND IM SURE MORE
HEAVY SNOW FALLING IN THE SRN SIERRA. 00Z MODELS TAKES THIS WAVE DUE
EAST ACROSS THE SIERRA AND NORTHERN NEVADA TONIGHT AND SUNDAY JUST
GIVING THE WESTERN AND NORTHERN ZONES A GLANCING BLOW. FEATURE THAT
MODEL NOW LATCH ONTO MORE IS FINAL SHORTWAVE TROUGH DUE ACROSS THE
REGION SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. GFS INDICATES QUITE A BIT OF QPF
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA MOUNTAINS SUNDAY NIGHT THEN SPREADS
LIGHTER QPF AMOUNTS ACROSS THE MOJAVE DESERT AND NORTHWEST ARIZONA
MONDAY MORNING. STRONGER WIND GUSTS IN THE LEE OF THE SPRING
MOUNTAINS HAVE SUBSIDED FOR THE MOST PART AND WILL CANCEL WIND
ADVISORY WITH THE EVENING UPDATE.
&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...300 PM PST SAT JAN 5...BAND OF SHOWERS CONTINUES
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN THIRD OF THE CWA FROM THE POWERFUL STORM WHICH
MOVED INTO THE AREA ON FRIDAY. THIS BAND TO SLOWLY SAG SOUTH
OVERNIGHT WITH THE MAIN AREA OF PRECIPITATION BEING ACROSS NORTHWEST
ARIZONA. ASSOCIATED JET PROGGED TO BE OVER KLAS AT 00Z SUNDAY
HELPING TO KICK OFF CONSIDERABLE WAVE CLOUDS ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA
AND HELPING TO PRODUCE SOME LOCALIZED DOWNSLOPE WINDS INTO THE WEST
SIDE OF THE KLAS VALLEY. AS THE JET SAGS SOUTH OVERNIGHT...EXPECT
DOWNSLOPE CONDITIONS TO END. WILL CONTINUE WIND ADVISORY FOR
PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN NEVADA INTO LATE EVENING DUE TO COMBINATION OF
SURFACE GRADIENTS/DOWNSLOPE. AS THIS SYSTEM SHIFTS EAST...NEXT SHORT
WAVE ALREADY PUSHING INTO THE CENTRAL SIERRA AND IS EXPECTED TO MOVE
OVER THE SOUTHERN SIERRA BY EARLY EVENING. ALTHOUGH BEST
PRECIPITATION WILL BE ON THE WEST SIDE...INCREASED SNOW WILL ONCE
AGAIN BE SEEN OVERNIGHT ACROSS THE EAST SLOPES BEFORE DECREASING
SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS SYSTEM SHIFTS ACROSS THE CWA. COLDER ALOFT OVER
THE CWA FROM CURRENT SYSTEM WILL HELP TO PRODUCE LOWER SNOW LEVELS
WITH THE NEXT SYSTEM. BEST PRECIPITATION WILL BE AIDED BY
OROGRAPHICS SO WILL KEEP MOUNTAIN POPS HIGHER THAN THE VALLEYS. NAM
AND GFS HAVE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT TRACK OF BEST DYNAMICS AND FOR NOW
WILL COMPROMISE QPF AMOUNTS... ESPECIALLY ACROSS LINCOLN
COUNTY...HOWEVER MAY NEED TO BUMP UP IN LATER PACKAGE TO POSSIBLE
SNOW ADVISORY AMOUNTS FOR SUNDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING. WILL SEE
DECREASING POPS ON MONDAY AS MAIN TROUGH OVER THE WESTERN UNITED
STATES SHIFTS EAST AND DRY NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT MOVES ACROSS THE CWA
LATE MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. BESIDES THE LOCAL GUSTY WINDS
TONIGHT...GUSTY WINDS EXPECTED ONCE AGAIN SUNDAY AFTERNOON BUT
OVERALL SHOULD REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS. WILL NEED TO WATCH
SOUTHERN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY AND EXTREME SOUTHERN NEVADA HOWEVER
AS NAM MOS PUSHING CLOSE TO ADVISORY CRITERIA.

.LONG TERM...AREA EXPECTED TO REMAIN IN AN ACTIVE PATTERN THROUGH
THE EXTENDED PERIOD WITH SEVERAL WEAK TROUGHS MOVING THROUGH THE
AREA. FIRST SYSTEM WILL AFFECT THE REGION TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT
WITH MAINLY THE NORTHERN AREAS OF THE CWA AND THE SOUTHERN SIERRA.
AREA WILL SEE A QUICK BREAK WEDNESDAY AND EARLY THURSDAY BEFORE
ANOTHER SYSTEM PUSHES INTO THE AREA THURSDAY. AGAIN...MAINLY THE
SOUTHERN SIERRA AND NORTHERN CWA WILL EXPERIENCE SHOWERS WITH THE
SOUTHERN AREAS SEEING BREEZY TO LOCALLY WINDY CONDITIONS. GFS AND
ECMWF DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FRIDAY WITH THE ECMWF BRINGING AN INSIDE
SLIDER WITH QPF SPREADING OVER MUCH OF THE AREA AND EVENTUALLY
CUTTING OFF A LOW OVER SOUTHERN AZ/NM. THE GFS KEEPS A NORTHWEST
FLOW OVER THE AREA AS HIGH PRESSURE PUSHES INTO CALIFORNIA WITH DRY
CONDITIONS FOR US. CURRENT THINKING IS THAT THE ECMWF IS TO BULLISH
WITH THE SYSTEM AND WILL LEAN TOWARD THE MORE CONSERVATIVE AND
PROGRESSIVE GFS.

.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...SOUTHWEST WINDS AROUND 10-20 KNOTS WITH
HIGHER GUSTS OVERNIGHT. THESE WINDS WILL CONTINUE INTO SUNDAY
AFTERNOON. CIGS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED TO REMAIN ABOVE 10K FEET
TONIGHT. ANOTHER SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION SUNDAY WITH LOWER
CIGS AND A CHANCE OF RAIN FOR THE VALLEY. CIGS ARE LIKELY TO LOWER
TO AROUND 5K FEET AFTER 18Z SUNDAY WITH POTENTIALLY LOWER CIGS IN
HEAVIER SHOWERS.

FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...SOUTHWEST TO WEST WINDS OCCURRING OVER MUCH OF THE
REGION NORTH OF A DAG-EED-IGM LINE. MOST OTHER AREAS ARE SEEING
WINDS AROUND 18-28 KNOTS. WINDS ARE LIKELY TO STAY IN THE 12-22 KNOT
RANGE THROUGH SUNDAY. A FEW SHOWERS EXPECTED TONIGHT BEFORE ANOTHER
ROUND OF HEAVY SNOW AND RAIN MOVING INTO THE REGION SUNDAY THROUGH
SUNDAY NIGHT.
