AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ELKO NV
220 AM PDT SUN MAY 8 2011

.SYNOPSIS...A LARGE STRONG PACIFIC STORM SYSTEM WILL BRING WET
WEATHER AND UNSEASONABLY COOL TEMPERATURES TO THE GREAT BASIN
TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY. MUCH WARMER WEATHER QUICKLY RETURNS FOR THE
REMAINDER OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY. STRONG PACIFIC STORM SYSTEM
MOVING INTO THE GREAT BASIN THIS MORNING ON SCHEDULE. WATER VAPOR
IMAGERY REVEALS PRIMARY COLD UPPER LOW SPINNING NEAR SEATTLE.
STRONG SHORTWAVE ROTATING AROUND THIS FEATURE APPROACHING WESTERN
NEVADA THIS MORNING. STRONG DYNAMIC LIFT INCREASING QUICKLY AHEAD
OF THIS SHORTWAVE...WITH WIDESPREAD LIGHT RAINFALL OVERSPREADING
NORTHERN NEVADA ON RADAR THIS MORNING. RAINFALL TODAY WILL BE
QUITE WIDESPREAD WITH MOST LOCATIONS RECEIVING LIGHT AMOUNTS.
INCREASED POP GRIDS INTO THE 90-100% RANGE FOR MANY LOCATIONS
THROUGH TODAY. EXPECTING A VERY HIGH POP/RELATIVELY LOW QPF EVENT
THROUGH SUNDAY. POPULATED VALLEYS WILL REMAIN ALL RAIN
TODAY...WITH SNOW LEVELS HOLDING NEAR 6-7000 FEET. WET SNOW WILL
BE ACCUMULATING ON OUR HIGHER TERRAIN TODAY...AND THOSE PLANNING
OUTDOOR WEEKEND ACTIVITIES SHOULD PLAN ACCORDINGLY. THIS
AFTERNOON...SOME LIMITED INSTABILITY WARRANTS A MENTION OF THUNDER
IN ALL ZONES. NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD CONVECTION GIVEN WIDESPREAD
RAIN/CLOUDS AND MUCH COOLER TEMPERATURES. MAX TEMPS SOME 15
DEGREES COOLER TODAY COMPARED TO SATURDAY...MAINLY IN THE 50S.

TONIGHT...PRIMARY COLD UPPER LOW ENTERS NORTHERN NEVADA BY SUNRISE
MONDAY. PRECIPITATION EXPECTED TO BECOME MORE SCATTERED OR SHOWERY
OVERNIGHT...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF NEAR ELY/WHITE PINE COUNTY WHERE
HEALTHY QPF VALUES ARE EXPECTED. MUCH COLDER AIR INVADES ON GUSTY
NW WINDS TONIGHT...WITH SNOW LEVELS FALLING TO VALLEY FLOORS.
HOWEVER...IT CONTINUES TO APPEAR THAT THE VAST MAJORITY OF QPF
WILL FALL AS RAIN FOR POPULATED VALLEYS...BEFORE THICKNESSES
BECOME COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT SNOW. SNOW GRID AMOUNTS ARE
THEREFORE MINIMAL OVERNIGHT FOR VALLEY LOCATIONS. WET SNOW WILL
ACCUMULATE ON THE HIGHER TERRAIN OVERNIGHT WITH AN EMPHASIS ON NW
FACING SLOPES. GAVE SOME THOUGHT ABOUT ISSUING A WINTER WEATHER
ADVISORY FOR WHITE PINE COUNTY FOR THE MOUNTAINS...BUT UNCERTAIN
ON HOW MUCH SNOW WOULD STICK TO ROADS EVEN AT NIGHT.

MONDAY...MOSTLY CLOUDY...SHOWERY...AND UNSEASONABLY COOL AS COLD
UPPER LOW SINKS INTO CENTRAL NEVADA AND ELONGATES OVER THE GREAT
BASIN. HIGH CONFIDENCE THAT SHOWERS WILL BE SCATTERED ABOUT
MONDAY...MAINLY SNOW IN THE MORNING TRANSITIONING TO RAIN/SNOW
PELLETS MONDAY AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...QPF AND ANY SNOW AMOUNTS
APPEAR MINIMAL ACROSS MUCH OF NORTHERN NEVADA. THE EXCEPTION TO
THIS WILL BE ACROSS NYE/WHITE PINE COUNTIES WHERE MODELS CONTINUE
TO SUGGEST HEAVIER PRECIPITATION WILL BE FOCUSED MONDAY AFTERNOON.
PLACED SNOW AMOUNTS IN THE GRIDS FOR THE SOUTHERN ZONES FOR
THIS...ALTHOUGH SNOW WILL LIKELY HAVE A VERY DIFFICULT TIME
STICKING DURING MAY DAYLIGHT HOURS. KEPT THUNDER MENTIONED NEAR
THE COLDEST AIR ALOFT MONDAY AFTERNOON...MAINLY SOUTH AND WEST OF ELKO.
IT WILL NOT FEEL LIKE MAY ON MONDAY...WITH TEMPERATURES STRUGGLING
THROUGH THE 40S TO LOWER 50S.

TUESDAY...KEPT DECENT PRECIP CHANCES ACROSS MAINLY ELKO/WHITE PINE
COUNTIES TO COVER ANY MOISTURE WRAPAROUND FROM DEPARTING STORM.
THICKNESSES WILL BE WARM ENOUGH TO KEEP MOST OF THIS IN THE FORM
OF RAIN. COOL NORTHERLY FLOW KEEPS MAX TEMPS BELOW NORMAL IN THE
50S IN EASTERN NEVADA. BT

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT SATURDAY. MODELS ARE IN GOOD
GENERAL AGREEMENT THROUGH SATURDAY...NO LARGE DISCREPANCIES. PATTERN
IS EXPECTED TO BE PROGRESSIVE HOWEVER MOVEMENT OF SYSTEMS WILL BE
SLOWER THAN RECENTLY. FROM TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...AN UPPER
LOW WILL MOVE SSE FROM NEAR THE CANADIAN PACIFIC COAST TO RECENTER
OFF THE PACIFIC OR/CA COAST. TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY
NIGHT...A SHORTWAVE RIDGE WILL AMPLIFY AND MOVE ACROSS THE GREAT
BASIN ENSURING A DRY PERIOD. AFTER THAT...THERE WILL BE PERIODS OF
DIFLUENT FLOW ALOFT OF THE CWFA BUT FOR THE MOST PART...A
SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL RESULT FOR SEVERAL DAYS. PICKING AND CHOOSING
WHICH DAYS WILL BE THE MOST UNSTABLE RIGHT NOW IS DIFFICULT WITH
THE LIMITED MOISTURE INFLOW. TEMPERATURES WILL GENERALLY RANGE
FROM THE 70S DAYTIME TO THE 30S OVERNIGHT. NOT MANY CHANGES MADE
TO ONGOING FORECAST. LW

&&

.AVIATION...A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL DELIVER A ONE-TWO PUNCH. A
COLD FRONT IS MOVING THROUGH THE GREAT BASIN NOW AND A STRONGER COLD
FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH ON SUNDAY. LIGHT TO MODERATE SHOWERS OVER
NORTHERN NEVADA WILL CONTINUE AND SPREAD FURTHER SOUTH ON SUNDAY.
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL POP UP ALL ACROSS THE AREA AS THE AIR
MASS DESTABILIZES SUNDAY AFTERNOON. LW

&&

.HYDROLOGY...ISSUED A FLOOD WARNING FOR THE MARYS RIVER NEAR
CHARLESTON THAT CONTINUES THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING. AS OF
MIDNIGHT...MARYS RIVER HAD RISEN TO 5.24 FEET...WITH MINOR FLOOD
STAGE AT 5 FEET. SNOWMELT FROM WARM TEMPERATURES SATURDAY IS
COMBINING WITH WIDESPREAD LIGHT RAINFALL TO INCREASE RUNOFF THIS
MORNING. RIVERS NEAR FLOOD STAGE THIS MORNING INCLUDE THE BRUNEAU AT
ROWLAND...MARTIN CREEK AT PARADISE VALLEY...AND THE OWYHEE RIVER
NEAR MOUNTAIN CITY. EXPECT ALL OF THESE RIVERS TO EXCEED MINOR FLOOD
STAGE THROUGH THIS MORNING...WITH ALL FLOWS SUBSIDING BY LATER THIS
AFTERNOON OR TONIGHT. HAVE ISSUED FLOOD WARNINGS ACCORDINGLY. COLDER
AIR WILL ARRIVE TONIGHT AND MONDAY...GREATLY DIMINISHING SNOW MELT
AND THE FLOODING THREAT. AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF MUCH WARMER WEATHER
WILL ALLOW FLOODING TO RETURN BY THURSDAY OF NEXT WEEK. BT
