What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Las Vegas, NV wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Mar 20, 9:30 PM PDT, 33 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 20, 9:30 PM PDT, 33 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
930 PM PDT FRI MAR 20 2009
.SYNOPSIS...THE MILD WEATHER PATTERN OVER THE REGION WILL GIVE WAY
TO A POWERFUL PACIFIC STORM DIVING INTO THE MOJAVE DESERT LATE IN
THE WEEKEND. THIS STORM WILL BRING STRONG SOUTHWEST WINDS AHEAD OF
IT ALONG WITH SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND MUCH COOLER
TEMPERATURES BY SUNDAY. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS AND DRIER WEATHER WILL
DEVELOP SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY AS THE SYSTEM PULLS EAST.
&&
.UPDATE...NO CHANGES IN THE FORECAST OVER THE NEXT 12 HOURS OR SO.
MODELS CONTINUING TREND OF NOT DEEPENING...DIGGING THE SYSTEM THAT
WILL BE MOVING ACROSS SOUTHERN NEVADA ON SUNDAY. WILL BE ISSUING
WIND ADVISORIES FOR ESMERALDA...NYE AND LINCOLN COUNTIES FOR
TOMORROW AFTERNOON SHORTLY. THERE MAY BE A BRIEF PERIOD OF WIND
GUSTS TO 40 MPH OR TOMORROW AFTERNOON ACROSS THE WESTERN DESERTS OF
SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY...BUT DO NOT ANTICIPATE ENOUGH COVERAGE AND
DURATION TO WARRANT AN ADVISORY THERE. WILL ALSO GO AHEAD IN ISSUE
WIND ADVISORIES FOR MUCH OF THE CWA NOT ALREADY COVERED BY THE HIGH
WIND WATCH FOR SUNDAY...INCLUDING THE LAS VEGAS VALLEY. ONE OTHER
ITEM OF NOTE...MODELS HAVE ALSO TRENDED TOWARDS A SLIGHTLY DRIER
SOLUTION...PARTICULARLY IN THE VALLEYS AND DESERT LOCATIONS.
.PREV DISCUSSION...ALL INDICATIONS CONTINUE TO SHOW THE GULF OF
ALASKA LOW WILL TURN INTO A SIGNIFICANT LATE WEEKEND STORM FOR THE
FORECAST AREA. THE LATEST SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWED ENERGY DIVING
INTO THE BASE OF THE SYSTEM AND BEGINNING TO DIG IT SOUTHWARD. THE
12Z GFS AND ECMWF WERE NOW IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE TRACK
AND DEPTH OF THE SYSTEM THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. THE NAM IS ALSO PRETTY
CLOSE TO THE GFS WITH THE DETAILS...THOUGH SLIGHTLY SLOWER. THE
FORECAST IS BASED ON A COMBINATION OF THESE SOLUTIONS. THE MOST
SIGNIFICANT IMPACT OF THIS STORM WILL LIKELY BE STRONG WINDS FOR THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA AS THE CORE SWINGS INLAND ACROSS
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA INTO SOUTHERN NEVADA SUNDAY. THE BEST POTENTIAL
FOR WIDESPREAD GUSTS OVER 60 MPH WILL BE FOR THE SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTY DESERTS SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE REMAINDER OF THE
AREA WILL LIKELY SEE GUSTS OVER 40 MPH. A HIGH WIND WATCH WAS ISSUED
FOR THE SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY DESERTS. MODEL CROSS-SECTIONS ALSO
INDICATE A GOOD POTENTIAL FOR STRONG DOWNSLOPE WINDS FOR THE SPRING
MOUNTAINS LATE SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY. THE NEXT SIGNIFICANT
IMPACT WILL BE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS RAIN SHOWERS/SNOW SHOWERS AREA
WIDE SUNDAY AS THE CORE OF THE SYSTEM COMES DIRECTLY OVERHEAD. GIVEN
THE ORIENTATION OF THE INCOMING STORM AND LIMITED
MOISTURE...CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH THAT ANY PARTICULAR MOUNTAIN AREAS
WILL SEE SNOW ACCUMULATIONS THAT WOULD WARRANT A WINTER STORM
WARNING. THE EAST SLOPES WILL SEE THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS SUNDAY MORNING BUT IT SHOULD BE RELATIVELY SHORT
LIVED. THE SPRING MOUNTAINS AND LINCOLN COUNTY SHOULD SEE AT LEAST A
FEW INCHES...AND POSSIBLY MORE...BUT IT IS A LITTLE EARLY TO BE
CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO PIN DOWN DETAILS FOR SUSTAINED SNOWFALL. AS THE
SYSTEM EXITS SUNDAY NIGHT...DRY COOL NORTHWEST FLOW WILL QUICKLY
DEVELOP BEHIND IT.
.LONG TERM...SYSTEM WILL EXIT THE REGION LATE SUNDAY WITH ONLY A FEW
LINGERING SHOWERS POSSIBLE OVER THE FAR EASTERN CWA MONDAY. THE AREA
WILL STILL REMAIN UNDER A NORTHERLY FLOW WHICH WILL HELP KEEP
TEMPERATURES A FEW DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. WE WILL STILL REMAIN UNDER
A NORTHERLY FLOW TUESDAY...BUT THE FLOW IS EXPECTED TO BE WEAKER AND
HEIGHTS WILL ALSO RISE SLIGHTLY. THIS WILL LEAD TO SLIGHTLY WARMER
TEMPERATURES ON TUESDAY. THINGS COULD GET INTERESTING BY WEDNESDAY
AND THURSDAY OF NEXT WEEK AS THE EXTENDED MODELS ARE SHOWING A COLD
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DROPPING SOUTH OUT OF CANADA INTO NORTHERN
NEVADA. SO FAR THE GFS/ECMWF/AND CANADIAN MODELS HAVE JUMPED ON
BOARD WITH THIS SYSTEM AND IT HAS THE POTENTIAL OF BRINGING
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE WEATHER BY NEXT THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY...MAINLY IN THE FORM OF STRONG WINDS...BELOW NORMAL
TEMPERATURES...AND A CHANCE OF SHOWERS. SINCE THIS IS THE FIRST
RUN THAT THE MODELS ARE SHOWING THIS SYSTEM...HAVE NOT COMPLETELY
JUMPED ON BOARD. DID INCREASE POPS OVER THE NORTHERN CWA AND LOWERED
TEMPERATURES...BUT WILL WAIT FOR FURTHER MODEL RUNS TO INCREASE
ANYTHING ANYMORE.
&&
.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...A STRONG PACIFIC STORM WILL MOVE INTO THE
REGION OVER THE WEEKEND RESULTING IN GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS SATURDAY
AFTERNOON INTO SUNDAY. WINDS GUSTING TO AROUND 30 KTS LOOKS LIKELY
SATURDAY WHILE GUSTS APPROACHING OR EXCEEDING 40 KTS IS POSSIBLE
SUNDAY. SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED SUNDAY WITH A POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE BEATTY AND MORMON MESA CORRIDORS. A COLD FRONT
WILL MOVE THROUGH SOUTHERN NEVADA SUNDAY NIGHT OR MONDAY WITH WINDS
BECOMING NORTH.
FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...A PACIFIC STORM WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA THIS WEEKEND
RESULTING IN VERY GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS SATURDAY AFTERNOON INTO
SUNDAY. THE STRONGEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO OCCUR ACROSS THE MOJAVE
DESERT AND COULD APPROACH 60KTS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTY...RESULTING IN PERIODS OF VERY LOW VISIBILITY. SHOWERS ARE
EXPECTED OVER MUCH OF THE AREA LATE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...WITH
BETTER CHANCES OVER THE NORTH WHERE THERE WILL BE SOME POTENTIAL FOR
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. GUSTY NORTH WINDS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE
NORTH SUNDAY NIGHT...SPREADING SOUTH ON MONDAY.
&&
