AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
400 AM PDT TUE MAY 20 2008

.SYNOPSIS...A STRONG AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL GIVE WAY TO A STRONG
PACIFIC LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WHICH WILL REACH NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
THIS AFTERNOON. INCREASING SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL COMBINE WITH HOT
AND DRY WEATHER TO PRODUCE CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE UPPER LOW IS THEN FORECAST TO PLUNGE INTO
SOUTHERN NEVADA AND SURROUNDING AREAS TOMORROW THROUGH THE END OF
THE WEEK...BRINGING A DRAMATIC COOLING TREND AND ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
&&

.SHORT TERM...VERY COMPLICATED WEATHER SITUATION IS UNFOLDING PRETTY
MUCH AS ADVERTISED. SATELLITE SHOWS POWERFUL UPPER LOW OFFSHORE OF
BRITISH COLUMBIA BEGINNING TO ELONGATE SOUTHWARD UNDER THE INFLUENCE
OF STRONG JET STREAK DIGGING ON ITS SOUTHWESTERN FLANK. THIS IS THE
BEGINNING OF A PROCESS THAT WILL DIG THE BASE OF THE TROUGH ALL THE
WAY DOWN INTO THE MOJAVE DESERT BY TOMORROW AFTERNOON...WITH AN
UNSEASONABLY STRONG CUTOFF LOW FORMING OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST
THEREAFTER. THE 00Z MODELS SHOW MINOR CHANGES TO THE FORECAST
POSITION AND TRACK OF THE LOW. MORE CHANGES SUCH AS THESE WILL
PROBABLY CONTINUE RIGHT UP UNTIL THE CUTOFF LOW FORMS...AND DO NOT
WANT TO GET HUNG UP ON UNCERTAIN DETAILS. FOCUSING ON THE MAIN
HAZARDS...EXCESSIVE HEAT WILL CONTINUE FOR ONE MORE DAY TODAY. WINDS
WILL BE A MAJOR CHALLENGE. NMM AND ARW MODELS STILL SUGGEST A
DOWNSLOPE WIND EVENT IN THE LEE OF THE SIERRA TONIGHT. LOW HEIGHT OF
CRITICAL LEVEL IN THE CROSS SECTION IS THE MOST IMPRESSIVE FEATURE.
UPGRADED HIGH WIND WATCH TO A WARNING FOR THE EASTERN SIERRA SLOPES
AND THE OWENS VALLEY...AND KEPT THE TIMING INTACT. MODELS SHOW THE
BEST SIGNATURE OVERNIGHT...BUT WE HAVE SEEN SEVERAL EVENTS IN WHICH
THE HIGH WINDS OCCURRED IN THE LATE AFTERNOON DESPITE THE PEAK MODEL
SIGNATURE OCCURRING OVERNIGHT. FARTHER SOUTH...UPGRADED THE SAN
BERNARDINO COUNTY HIGH WIND WATCH TO A WIND ADVISORY. WINDS WILL
PROBABLY START IN THE NORTHWEST PART OF THE COUNTY THIS AFTERNOON
AND SPREAD FARTHER SOUTH AND EAST TONIGHT AND TOMORROW...BUT LEFT
THE TIMING INTACT FOR THE WHOLE COUNTY FOR THE SAKE OF BREVITY.
EXPECT BORDERLINE WIND ADVISORY CONDITIONS IN PARTS OF CLARK AND
MOHAVE COUNTIES AS WELL LATE THIS AFTERNOON...BUT EXTENT AND
DURATION OF GUSTS WILL BE CLOSE. THE INCREASING WINDS THIS AFTERNOON
WILL ALSO LEAD TO CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS...AND THE RED
FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT. THE SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL INVADE
FROM THE NORTHWEST TONIGHT AND PASS THROUGH ALL OF THE CWFA BY
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...BRINGING A WIND SHIFT AND THE POSSIBILITY OF
STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS. NMM SHOWS 30-40 KNOT NORTHERLY WINDS IN
PORTIONS OF ESMERALDA...NYE AND LINCOLN COUNTIES BEGINNING TONIGHT
AND CONTINUING THROUGH THE DAY TOMORROW. THIS AREA FREQUENTLY SEEMS
TO GET MUCH STRONGER WINDS THAN ONE WOULD EXPECT...SO HOISTED A HIGH
WIND WATCH FOR TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THESE WINDS WILL
USHER IN MUCH COOLER AIR...WITH HIGH TEMPS FALLING 20-30 DEGREES IN
MOST AREAS FROM TUESDAY TO THURSDAY. UNSTABLE AIR ASSOCIATED WITH
THE COLD CORE UPPER LOW WILL ALSO LEAD TO A CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY OVER THE EASTERN ZONES.

.LONG TERM...FRIDAY TO MONDAY...STILL LOOKING FOR UPPER LOW OVER
SOUTHERN NEVADA / SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AREA AT START OF PERIOD.
MODELS SO DIFFER IN EXACT PLACEMENT BUT NOT ENOUGH TO CHANGE THE
SENSIBLE WEATHER MUCH. AREA WILL SEE THE A DIURNAL PATTERN IN THE
PRECIPITATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER LOW...WITH THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY MOSTLY IN THE DAY DUE TO SURFACE HEATING AND LESS COVERAGE
AND SHOWERS AT NIGHT. DID INCREASE THE POPS FOR MOST OF THE AREA ON
FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY AS LOW MOVES EAST AND BRINGS IT COLD CORE
OVER THE AREA. STILL ANOTHER REINFORCING WAVE WILL MOVE SOUTH ON THE
BACKSIDE OF THE TROUGH SATURDAY AND THEN THIS ONE WILL MOVE EAST AS
WELL ON SUNDAY BUT ON A BIT FURTHER NORTH TRACK. THIS WILL BRING AN
INCREASE IN POPS FOR THE SIERRA ZONES THEN. THE WHOLE SYSTEM BEGINS
MOVING OUT ON MONDAY AND WE SHOULD BE PRETTY MUCH DRY BY NEXT
TUESDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL TAKE A GRADUAL UPWARD MOVE SATURDAY
ON...BUT WILL STAY BELOW NORMAL.
&&

.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...LIGHT SOUTH WINDS IN THE MORNING WILL
INCREASE IN THE AFTERNOON TO THE 15 TO 20 KT RANGE WITH HIGHER GUSTS
FROM THE SOUTHWEST. AROUND 14-15Z WEDNESDAY A FRONT WILL MOVE
THROUGH THE VALLEY AND SWITCH THE WINDS TO THE NORTH AND CONTINUED
IN THE 15-20KT RANGE AND GUSTY. THURSDAY ON THROUGH SUNDAY WILL SEE
A CHANCE FOR AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS TO BE IN THE AREA.

FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...THE RIDGE OVER THE AREA THAT HAS BROUGHT THE
UNSEASONABLY HOT TEMPERATURES WILL BEGIN TO BREAK DOWN AFTER TODAY
AS A PACIFIC STORM APPROACHES. WINDS WILL INCREASE LATE THIS MORNING
TO THE 15 TO 25 KNOT RANGE WHILE WHATEVER CLOUD COVER THERE WILL BE
IS OF THE CIRRUS TYPE. STRONG DOWNSLOPE WINDS ARE POSSIBLE ON THE
EAST SLOPES OF THE SIERRA AND IN THE OWENS VALLEY LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND INTO TONIGHT. WEDNESDAY MORNING WILL SEE A COLD FRONT
MOVE THROUGH THE AREA AND BRING A SHIFT IN WIND DIRECTION TO THE
NORTHWEST TO NORTH. THURSDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND WILL SEE AFTERNOON
CONVECTION OVER THE AREA AS UNSTABLE AIR MOVES IN BEHIND THE FRONT.
&&

.FIRE WEATHER...A RED FLAG WARNING IS IN EFFECT FROM 1 PM UNTIL 9 PM
TODAY FOR MOST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA AND PARTS OF
SOUTHEAST CALIFORNIA. INCREASING SOUTHWEST WINDS...WITH GUSTS NEAR
40 MPH POSSIBLE...WILL DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON ALONG WITH RECORD
BREAKING HIGH TEMPERATURES AND SINGLE DIGIT RELATIVE HUMIDITY
VALUES. IN ADDITION...CONDITIONS COULD BE FAVORABLE FOR STRONG
DOWNSLOPE WINDS...POTENTIALLY OVER 60 MPH...ALONG THE EAST SLOPES OF
THE SOUTHERN SIERRA LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
&&

MOJAVE DESERT AND SOUTHERN GREAT BASIN AGAIN TODAY. RECORD HIGH
