.SYNOPSIS...AN APPROACHING STORM SYSTEM WILL RESULT IN GUSTY WINDS
AND MUCH WARMER TEMPERATURES THIS AFTERNOON. GUSTY AFTERNOON WINDS ALONG
WITH DRY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK AS THE
LARGE PACIFIC STORM SYSTEM SLOWLY ARRIVES ON THE WEST COAST. THERE
IS NO PRECIPITATION IN SIGHT... EXPECT THE DROUGHT TO WORSEN AND
THE FIRE DANGER TO CONTINUE INTO NEXT WEEK.

&&

.UPDATE...SENT OUT UPDATED SKY GRIDS TO ACCOUNT FOR ALTOCUMULUS
CLOUDS DRIFTING NORTH ACROSS NEVADA THIS MORNING. THIS MIDLEVEL
MOISTURE WILL STICK AROUND THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...WITH GFS BUFR
SOUNDINGS FOR ELKO INDICATING CONVECTIVE CLOUD BASES NEAR 500 MB
THIS AFTERNOON. WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VERY LOW /LESS THAN 0.40/
IN A VERY DRY ATMOSPHERE...EXPECT ONLY SOME CUMULUS BUILDUPS THIS
AFTERNOON. DID INCREASE CLOUD COVER TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS...GFS DOES
SHOW WEAK INSTABILITY /LIFTED INDEX LESS THAN ZERO/ FROM
ELKO/SPRING CREEK TO BATTLE MOUNTAIN TO WEST OF AUSTIN AT 5 PM.
OTHERWISE...VERY HOT TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 90S EXPECTED IN
VALLEYS THIS AFTERNOON...WITH WARMEST LOCALES NEAR 100. TURNER

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED AT 407 AM /

SYNOPSIS...AN APPROACHING STORM SYSTEM WILL RESULT IN GUSTY WINDS
AND WARMER TEMPERATURES ON THURSDAY. GUSTY AFTERNOON WINDS ALONG
WITH DRY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE NEXT MONDAY AS THE
STORM SYSTEM REMAINS ALONG THE WEST COAST.

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY. UPPER RIDGE AXIS WILL DRIFT
EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA TODAY AS UPPER TROUGH APPROACHES THE
WEST COAST. THIS WILL PUT THE FORECAST AREA UNDER INCREASING
SOUTHWEST FLOW RESULTING IN BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS THIS
AFTERNOON ESPECIALLY ACROSS CENTRAL NEVADA. THIS SOUTHWEST FLOW
WILL CAUSE TEMPERATURES TO SKYROCKET TODAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 90S
TO NEAR 100. MODELS INDICATE A LITTLE INSTABILITY AND MID-LEVEL
MOISTURE OVER PORTIONS OF ELKO/LANDER/EUREKA COUNTIES THIS
AFTERNOON BUT DONT SEE MUCH MORE THAN SOME CLOUD BUILDUPS OVER THE
MOUNTAINS. AS UPPER TROUGH DEEPENS AND PUSHES ONTO THE WEST COAST
WE WILL SEE ABOUT 8 TO 12 DEGREES OF COOLING ON FRIDAY ALONG WITH
SOME CLOUDINESS OVER NORTHWEST NEVADA. WINDS WILL ONCE AGAIN BE
BREEZY TO WINDY AS STRONG SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT REMAINS IN PLACE.

LONG TERM...FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT WEDNESDAY. GREAT BASIN WILL
BE WEDGED BETWEEN A NEARLY STATIONARY TROUGH ALONG THE PAC NW
COAST...AND A RIDGE CENTERED JUST EAST OF THE FOUR CORNERS REGION
FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THE RESULTING MODERATE TO STRONG
SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL LEAD TO GUSTY WINDS OVER THE REGION.
AT THE SURFACE THIS WEEKEND LOW PRESSURE SETS UP IN THE NORTHEASTERN
CORNER OF NEVADA LEADING TO WESTERLY WINDS OVER NORTHWEST
NEVADA...SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS OVER WEST-CENTRAL NEVADA...AND
SOUTHERLY WINDS OVER EASTERN NEVADA. STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE ACROSS
CENTRAL AND EASTERN NEVADA WITH AFTERNOON SUSTAINED WINDS IN THE 15
TO 25 MPH RANGE. THE STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL RESULT IN
GUSTS OF 30 TO 40 MPH OVER CENTRAL AND EASTERN NEVADA SATURDAY AND
SUNDAY AFTERNOONS. THE UPPER LEVEL LOW OFF THE PAC NW COAST DRIFTS
DOWN ALONG THE NORTHERN CA COAST MONDAY...MAKING ITS ONSHORE PUSH
MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY THROUGH NORTHERN CA AND SOUTHERN
