AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
900 AM PST SAT FEB 2 2008

.SYNOPSIS...A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS WILL BE SEEN OVER THE
MOUNTAINS OF THE SOUTHERN GREAT BASIN TODAY AHEAD OF A STRONG STORM
MOVING INTO THE SOUTHERN SIERRA THIS EVENING. THIS STORM WILL BRING
SNOW INTO THE SIERRA BEGINNING LATE THIS AFTERNOON WITH RAIN AND
SNOW THEN SPREADING ACROSS THE ENTIRE SOUTHERN GREAT BASIN AND
MOJAVE DESERT SUNDAY. HEAVY SNOW IS POSSIBLE OVER THE HIGHER
ELEVATIONS OF CLARK...MOHAVE AND LINCOLN COUNTIES AS WELL AS THE
SIERRA. WINDS WILL ALSO INCREASE SUNDAY AS THIS SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH
THE AREA WITH VERY WINDY CONDITIONS POSSIBLE ACROSS SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTY. A COOL AND DRY NORTHERLY FLOW IS EXPECTED OVER THE AREA
MONDAY AND TUESDAY.
&&

.UPDATE...A BIT LESS CLOUD COVER THAN FORECAST OVER SOME ZONES THIS
MORNING BUT SATELLITE LOOP SHOWS CLOUDS SHOULD RAPIDLY INCREASE THIS
MORNING SO WILL NOT UPDATE CLOUD COVER. OVERALL...FORECAST LOOKS TO
BE IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE. LOOKING AHEAD...THIS AFTERNOON I WILL
LIKELY UPGRADE THE WINTER STORM WATCHES TO WARNINGS AS MODELS HAVE
BEEN PRETTY CONSISTENT SHOWING SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL ABOVE 5000 FEET
OVER THE AREAS IN THE WATCH.
&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...315 AM PST SAT FEB 2...SHORT TERM...A WEAK RIPPLE
MOVING OVER THE CWA TODAY WILL ALLOW FOR A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
SHOWERS...MAINLY ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS OF LINCOLN COUNTY AND THE
NORTHERN PORTION OF MOHAVE COUNTY WHILE THE  REMAINDER OF THE CWA TO
GENERALLY BE UNDER PARTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS. NEXT SYSTEM TO MOVE
ONTO THE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA COAST AND PUSH INTO THE SOUTHERN SIERRA
BY LATE AFTERNOON AND THEN CROSS OVER THE SOUTHERN GREAT BASIN AND
MOJAVE DESERT TONIGHT AND SUNDAY BEFORE SHIFTING EAST BY 12Z MONDAY.
NORTHERLY FLOW TO THEN SET UP OVER THE AREA MONDAY AND INTO MONDAY
NIGHT FOR DRY CONDITIONS. AS THIS SYSTEM APPROACHES THE AREA...LOOK
FOR INCREASE SHOWERS OVER THE SOUTHERN SIERRA DURING THE AFTERNOON
WITH SNOW OVERNIGHT AND INTO SUNDAY. IN ADDITION GUSTY WINDS SHOULD
ALSO BE SEEN. FAIRLY LARGE DIFFERENCES IN QPF AMOUNTS BETWEEN THE
NAM/GFS AS THIS SYSTEM CROSS OVER THE SIERRA AND THE REMAINDER OF
THE CWA. HOWEVER AMOUNTS MENTIONED IN THE WINTER STORM WATCH STILL
LOOK TO BE A GOOD COMPROMISE AND WILL CONTINUE IN THIS PACKAGE. AT
THE SAME TIME...WINDS LOOK TO BE A CRITICAL AREA ALSO AS POSSIBLE
WEAK DOWNSLOPE CONDITIONS INTO THE OWENS VALLEY THIS EVENING INTO
SUNDAY. HOWEVER STRONG WINDS ACROSS SAN BERNARDINO SUNDAY AND SUNDAY
EVENING ARE ALSO POSSIBLE WITH 00Z NAM SHOWING STEADY 42MPH AT 21Z
SUNDAY. THIS SUPPORTED BY STRONG FLOW ALOFT WITH 50-70KTS AT 700MB
ON BOTH THE NAM/GFS AND 45KTS AT 850MB FOR BOTH MODELS. IN ADDITION
TO THE POSSIBLE STRONG WINDS ACROSS SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY...WIND
ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS WILL LIKELY OCCUR ACROSS MUCH OF THE SOUTHERN
PORTION OF THE CWA ON SUNDAY AND WILL NEED TO BE ADDRESSED LATER.
COOL NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE AREA TODAY AND THEN CLOUDS/SHOWERS ON
SUNDAY WITH COOL NORTH FLOW ON MONDAY ALL POINT TO KEEPING DAYTIME
TEMPS BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE SHORT TERM.

.LONG TERM...A WEAK STORM SYSTEM WILL CLIP THE AREA TO THE NORTHEAST
TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY WITH MINIMAL IMPACT TO AREA WEATHER
OTHER THAN CONTINUED BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES. DRY NORTHWEST FLOW
FOLLOWS ON THURSDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE REGION BY
THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL GIVE THE AREA THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR A RETURN
TO NORMAL TEMPERATURES SINCE MID JANUARY.
&&

TODAY WITH CIGS AOA 20 KFT THROUGH MIDDAY. A WEAK SYSTEM MOVES INTO
THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON WITH CIGS NEAR 10KFT POSSIBLE. A STRONGER
