AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RENO NV
218 PM PDT SUN JUL 25 2010

.SHORT TERM...
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED IN EASTERN CALIFORNIA ALONG
THE SIERRA CREST FROM MONO COUNTY NORTH THROUGH LASSEN COUNTY AND
THROUGHOUT WESTERN NEVADA THIS AFTERNOON. STORMS WILL CONTINUE
INTO THIS EVENING AS INSTABILITY BUILDS WITH FORCING FROM AN
APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL JET. MOST THUNDERSTORMS SO FAR HAVE BEEN
DRY BUT WITH DEW POINTS ON THE RISE...STORMS WILL BEGIN TO DROP
MORE RAIN EARLY THIS EVENING. OVERALL STORM MOTION HAS BEEN
BETWEEN 20 AND 30 MPH...SO FLASH FLOODING MAY NOT BE TOO BIG OF AN
ISSUE THIS EVENING UNLESS SEVERAL STORMS PASS OVER THE SAME AREA.

CONVECTION WILL WEAKEN SOME AFTER DARK BUT NOCTURNAL STORM
DEVELOPMENT IS LIKELY. PW VALUES WILL INCREASE TO BETWEEN 1 AND 1.5
INCHES TONIGHT WHILE A 70+ KT JET MOVES IN OVERHEAD...BOTH
REMAINING IN PLACE UNTIL TUESDAY MORNING. LIFT IN THE LEFT EXIT
REGION OF THE JET AND FORCING FROM THE APPROACHING SHORT WAVE
SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO RELEASE ELEVATED INSTABILITY AND TRIGGER
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE SIERRA AND WESTERN NV EARLY MONDAY
MORNING. STORMS WILL BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD DURING THE DAY WITH
ADDITIONAL HEATING AND FURTHER DESTABILIZATION FROM SLIGHT COOLING
ALOFT. WITH THE JET SETTLING IN OVERHEAD...3-8 KM BULK SHEAR WILL
INCREASE TO 50 KTS WITH MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES BETWEEN 8 AND 9
C/KM. THIS WOULD ALLOW FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO BECOME BETTER
ORGANIZED...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW STORMS TO BECOME SEVERE
IN THE LATE AFTERNOON OR EARLY EVENING HOURS.

A SECOND WEAK SHORTWAVE WILL PASS OVER THE REGION ON
TUESDAY...KEEPING A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN WESTERN
NEVADA. BY MID AFTERNOON...OVERALL SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL TAKE OVER AND
BEGIN TO DECREASE MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY. AREAS IN THE WEST
CENTRAL NEVADA BASIN COULD STILL SEE A STORM OR TWO AS THE
MOISTURE IS PUSHED EAST OUT OF THE AREA...SO HAVE MAINTAINED A SLIGHT
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING. WEDNESDAY WILL
SEE CLEARING WITH DRY AIR SETTLING IN AND LIGHT AFTERNOON
SOUTHWEST WINDS. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN A FEW DEGREES ABOVE
NORMAL THROUGH THE SHORT TERM PERIOD. LABELLE

.LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...
WEAK SW FLOW ALOFT IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THRU NEXT WEEKEND WITH
BROAD RIDGE CENTERED OVER THE SRN US. WHILE SOME MINOR DIFFERENCES
EXIST AMONG MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE ON PLACEMENT OF THESE
FEATURES...THIS WEATHER PATTERN WOULD FAVOR GENERALLY DRY CONDITIONS
THRU NEXT WEEKEND WITH LATE DAY LEE SIDE ZEPHYR-TYPE BREEZES. MAX
TEMPS SHOULD REACH THE LOWER-MID 90S FOR MOST LOWER ELEVATIONS EACH
DAY...WITH WARMER VALLEYS IN THE W-CNTRL NV BASIN APPROACHING 100
DEGREES.

ONE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION TO THE DRY AND STABLE PATTERN MAY BE IN
MINERAL-MONO ZONES THURSDAY-FRIDAY WHERE THE GFS HANGS ON TO SOME
INSTBY AND MID LEVEL MOISTURE WHERE FLOW ALOFT IS WEAKER. THE OTHER
GUIDANCE SOURCES AND PREVIOUS RUNS OF THE GFS DID NOT INDICATE THIS
INSTBY SO TSTMS WILL NOT BE MENTIONED AT THIS TIME...ALTHOUGH SOME
CUMULUS BUILDUPS WILL BE ADDED FOR THESE AREAS FOR THURS-FRI. MJD

&&

.AVIATION...
ISOLD-SCT TSTMS WILL CONTINUE THRU REST OF THIS AFTN WITH MOST
ACTIVITY EAST OF THE TAHOE BASIN AFT 00Z AND EAST OF KRNO AFT 02Z.
ISOLD TSTMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT IN W-CNTRL NV. MAIN
IMPACTS WILL BE STRONG DOWNBURST/OUTFLOW WINDS OF 40 KT OR GREATER
IN WRN NV. POSSIBLE BRIEF VSBY REDUCTIONS TO MVFR ARE POSSIBLE DUE
TO BLOWING DUST ACROSS WRN NEVADA INCLUDING KRNO...AND DUE TO BRIEF
HVY RAIN IN THE TAHOE BASIN.

ON MONDAY...SCT TSTMS WILL REDEVELOP BY LATE MORNING AND CONTINUE
THRU LATE AFTN. THE MAIN IMPACTS WITH THE STRONGER STORMS WILL BE
LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND HAIL...WITH CONVECTIVE GUSTS 40 KT OR GREATER
POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY IN W-CNTRL NV. MJD

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
RED FLAG APPEARS ON TRACK. LOTS OF LIGHTNING WITH STORMS AND SEEING
MANY REPORTS OF NEW FIRES SO FAR THROUGH GACC/DISPATCH WEB SITES.
WITH CONVECTION FIRING SO EARLY...MIN RH MAY NOT BE AS LOW AS
FORECAST FOR SOME AREAS...BUT STILL SEEING TEENS TO LOW 20S.
CONVECTION IS MOVING SO FAST THAT EVEN STRONG STORMS ARE NOT
DROPPING MUCH RAIN...QUARTER INCH OF RAIN AT MOST. ATMOSPHERE WILL
CONTINUE TO MOISTEN A BIT BUT STILL IS QUITE DRY IN MANY AREAS.

OUTFLOWS ARE EVERYWHERE NOW EXCEPT ZONE 453 WHICH HAS NOT SEEN MUCH
CONVECTION YET. THESE HAVE HELPED TO PUSH CONSTANTIA FIRE NEAR
DOYLE. GUSTS UP TO 50 MPH HAVE BEEN REPORTED AND SHOULD CONTINUE
POTENTIAL PUSHING OF NEW/EXISTING FIRES.

CONCERN SHIFTS TO TONIGHT AS ANOTHER IMPULSE FROM UPPER LOW OFF
COAST MOVES THROUGH FROM 09-18Z. CONVECTION SHOULD WANE FOR A BIT
TONIGHT...BUT THERE WILL BE ANOTHER ROUND OF MORNING CONVECTION
MONDAY. SINCE IT WILL NOT BE SURFACE BASED...IT WILL TEND TO BE
WEAKER AND DRIER. ADDITIONALLY...IT WILL BE WELL WITHIN THE
STRONGER WINDS ALOFT SO IT WILL BE MOVING 30+ MPH. WILL EXTEND
WARNING THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS UNTIL 10 AM FOR ALL ZONES. IT
IS LIKELY THAT NOT ALL AREAS WILL SEE SCT CONVECTION...BUT THESE
OVERNIGHT STORMS CAN BE A BIT DIFFICULT TO PINPOINT. BEST GUESS
WOULD BE 459/453/458 MOST AFFECTED IN NV...BUT THAT IS VERY VERY
SKETCHY. ALSO...RECOVERIES OVERNIGHT WILL NOT BE TOO MUCH BETTER
THAN LAST NIGHT.

SCT STORMS TOMORROW SHOULD BE WETTER AND RH HIGHER SO WILL NOT
CONTINUE WARNING THEN. WORST HIT AREAS SHOULD BE NORTH AND EAST FOR
DRY LIGHTNING. STILL A FEW STARTS BUT NOTHING LIKE YESTERDAY/TODAY
AND POTENTIALLY TONIGHT. WALLMANN
