AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RENO NV
215 PM PDT SUN JUN 19 2011

.SHORT TERM...
UPPER LOW CONTINUES TO PULL AWAY FROM AREA WITH PRESSURE GRADIENT
RELAXING AND WINDS MORE STEADY 10-15 MPH MOST PLACES. TEMPERATURES
WERE ONLY RISING SLOWLY AS COLD AIR ADVECTION WAS HELPING OFFSET
SOLAR HEATING. HOWEVER WITH WANING COLD ADVECTION...SOME LATE DAY
HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE LIKELY...EVEN AFTER THE 00Z SYNOPTIC
OBSERVATION.

FOR TONIGHT AND EARLY MONDAY...SURFACE HIGH OVER THE GREAT BASIN
WILL CONTINUE AN EAST GRADIENT WHICH WILL MOSTLY BE FELT OVER THE
SIERRA CREST AND POSSIBLY OVER LAKE TAHOE AT TIMES. WIND AT TAHOE
WILL BE ALL GRADIENT DRIVEN WITH NO OTHER SUPPORT (700 FLOW/TEMPS
DECREASE AND WARM). WINDS ON TAHOE WILL GENERALLY STAY IN THE 10-15
MPH RANGE WITH LITTLE GUSTS. SO LEFT WAVE HEIGHTS 1-2 FEET AND
LOCALLY UP TO 3 FEET WITH NO ADVISORY NECESSARY. TEMPERATURES WILL
BE LOWER IN SOME VALLEY LOCATIONS AS WINDS DECREASE AND VALLEYS
DECOUPLE.

HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL BUILD STRONGLY OVER THE AREA THROUGH MID
WEEK WITH 700MB TEMPS PUSHING 14-16C. THIS WILL BRING TEMPERATURES
TO THEIR WARMEST LEVELS SO FAR THIS YEAR WITH 80S SIERRA VALLEYS
AND 90S MOST LOWER ELEVATIONS. THE ECMWF CONTINUES TO SHOW SOME
WEAK 500 RH RESPONSE LATE WEDNESDAY. RIGHT NOW THINK THEIR MAY BE
SOME FLAT CUMULUS DEVELOPMENT BUT OVERALL FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW
LIMITED MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY. SO FORECAST FOR THE FIRST HALF
OF WEEK WILL BE CHARACTERIZED BY DRY AND VERY WARM. WINDS WILL
GENERALLY BE LIGHT EXCEPT LATE WEDNESDAY WHEN PATTERN FOR LEE SIDE
ZEPHYR WILL RETURN. HOHMANN

.LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...
UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH THE NORTHWEST CONUS THROUGH
THE EXTENDED FORECAST WILL ALLOW DRY WEST TO SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT
UNDER A FLAT RIDGE TO DOMINATE THE REGION. HIGH TEMPERATURES 4 TO 8
DEGREES ABOVE AVERAGE THURSDAY WILL COOL TO WITHIN 5 DEGREES OF
AVERAGE FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.

CONVECTION WISE...THE GFS AND ECMWF CONTINUE TO SHOW A WEAK UPPER
DISTURBANCE PASSING THROUGH SOUTHERN OREGON THURSDAY MORNING WITH
THE GFS SHOWING SOME DECREASE IN UPPER LAPSE RATES OVER THE NORTHERN
CWA IN THE AFTERNOON. THIS CONSISTENTLY FORECAST FEATURE...COOLING
SURFACE TEMPS...AND MARGINAL MODIFIED TOTAL TOTALS IN THE GFS (AND
LESS THAN MARGINAL IN ECMWF) DO NOT MAKE MUCH OF A CASE FOR
CONVECTION ACROSS NORTHERN LASSEN AND WASHOE COUNTIES THURSDAY.
THEREFORE...STEADY AS SHE GOES WITH GHOST POPS FOR THURSDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY LOOKS DRY WITH WARMING TEMPS ALOFT AND LITTLE
INSTABILITY NOTED IN MODELS. SNYDER
&&

.AVIATION...
UPPER RIDGE BUILDING OVERHEAD TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY WILL BRING VFR
CONDITIONS WITH LIGHT WINDS. SNYDER
&&

.HYDROLOGY...
THE COOLER AIRMASS OVER THE REGION WILL KEEP FLOWS ON AREA CREEKS
AND STREAMS WITHIN THEIR BANKS FOR AT LEAST ONE MORE DAY ALTHOUGH
THEY WILL STILL BE FAST FLOWING...COLD AND DANGEROUS. THE MAIN
IMPACT IN THE NEXT 24 HRS WILL CONTINUE TO BE MINOR FLOODING OF
LOWLANDS ALONG THE MAINSTEM WALKER RIVER FROM MASON TO WEBER DAM.

TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO WARM SIGNIFICANTLY BEGINNING MONDAY
WITH TEMPERATURES CLOSE TO 10 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL BY MIDWEEK.
THIS WILL RESULT IN INCREASING FLOWS ONCE AGAIN WITH FLOWS
REACHING LEVELS SEEN THIS PAST WEEK AS EARLY AS MONDAY NIGHT AND
IN SOME TRIBUTARIES THEY WILL REACH THE HIGHEST LEVELS SO FAR THIS
SNOWMELT SEASON BY TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHTS. THE WALKER RIVER
IS STILL THE GREATEST CONCERN AS A LARGE HIGH ELEVATION SNOWPACK
REMAINS IN ITS UPPER REACHES. THE WEST WALKER RIVER ABOVE TOPAZ LAKE
WILL LIKELY REACH FLOOD STAGE AS EARLY AS MONDAY NIGHT AND GO EVEN
HIGHER AROUND MID WEEK. IN ADDITION...FLOWS THROUGH OR AROUND TOPAZ
LAKE WILL LIKELY INCREASE RIVER FLOWS DOWNSTREAM THROUGH SMITH
VALLEY AT SOME POINT THIS WEEK. THEREFORE A FLOOD WATCH FOR THE
ENTIRE WEST WALKER RIVER IS NOW IN EFFECT. THIS INCREASED FLOW WILL
EVENTUALLY REACH THE MAINSTEM WALKER RIVER WHERE WARNINGS MAY NEED
TO BE UPGRADED FOR MORE SIGNIFICANT FLOODING NEXT WEEKEND OR THE
FOLLOWING WEEK. FOR NOW THE WARNING FOR THE MAINSTEM WALKER HAS BEEN
EXTENDED INDEFINITELY AS IT WILL LIKELY REMAIN ABOVE FLOOD STAGE AT
LEAST THROUGH THE END OF THE MONTH.

NO MAJOR ISSUES ARE EXPECTED ON OTHER MAINSTEM RIVERS OTHER THAN A
POSSIBILITY OF SOME VERY MINOR FLOODING ON THE WEST FORK CARSON
RIVER IN SOUTHWEST CARSON VALLEY. SMALLER CREEKS AND STREAMS IN THE
EASTERN SIERRA FROM MONO COUNTY NORTHWARD INTO THE WESTERN TAHOE
BASIN AND UPPER TRUCKEE RIVER BASIN ABOVE STORAGE CONTROLS ARE ALSO
EXPECTED TO SEE INCREASED FLOWS WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR MINOR
FLOODING.
