AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ELKO NV
1056 AM PST MON DEC 17 2012

.SYNOPSIS...STRONG GUSTY WINDS AND LIGHT TO MODERATE MOUNTAIN SNOW
SHOWERS WILL PERSIST ACROSS NORTHERN NEVADA THROUGH THIS
AFTERNOON. MODERATE TO LOCALLY HEAVY SNOW WILL IMPACT EAST-CENTRAL
NEVADA THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY. COLDER AND DRIER CONDITIONS
TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY WITH A WARMING TREND TO FINISH THE
WEEK.

&&

.UPDATE...VERY STRONG WARMING THIS MORNING HAS ALLOWED MAX
TEMPERATURES TO BE SURPASSED BY 4 TO 7 DEGREES. HAVE UPDATED TEMPS
AND RELATED GRIDS AT THIS TIME. RAIN CHANGED OVER TO SNOW IN JACKPOT
EARLIER THIS MORNING. SNOW LEVELS ARE RUNNING A BIT HIGH IN
HUMBOLDT COUNTY...ABOUT 6500-7000 FEET...AND ROUGHLY THE SAME IN
NORTHERN ELKO COUNTY. COLD FRONT IS RIGHT ON THE NORTHERN BORDER
WITH IDAHO AND WILL CAUSE TEMPERATURES AND SNOW LEVELS TO DROP
RAPIDLY. WILL KEEP ALL PRODUCTS AS-IS AND MAKE ANY CHANGES WITH
AFTERNOON PACKAGE.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED AT 350 AM /

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. SNOW SHOWERS WERE FEW AND
FAR BETWEEN ACROSS THE CWA MOST OF THE NIGHT...HOWEVER THEY ARE
EXPECTED TO RESUME THIS MORNING ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHERN
NEVADA. A MAJOR CONCERN TODAY WILL BE STRONG GUSTY WINDS OVER
NORTHERN NEVADA. WINDS IN THESE AREAS HAVE ALREADY BEGUN TO
INCREASE AS A 160KT JET MOVES OVER THE REGION. AT OR AROUND 3AM
THIS MORNING THERE WERE A COUPLE REPORTS OF WIND GUSTS IS THE 50
TO 55 MPH RANGE INCLUDING A REPORT OF 52 MPH AT KWMC. ADDITIONALLY
THERE WAS A REPORT OF 73 MPH AT THE POLE CREEK RAWS SITE IN
NORTHERN ELKO COUNTY. CONTINUED THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR
SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW FOR HUMBOLDT COUNTY AND NORTHERN ELKO COUNTY
THROUGH 4PM THIS AFTERNOON. SOME SNOW SHOWERS ARE LIKELY OVER
HIGHER TERRAIN AND WILL COMBINE WITH GUSTY WINDS TO REDUCE
VISIBILITIES AND CAUSE SOME BLOWING AND DRIFTING OF SNOW. FOR
LOWER ELEVATION AREAS SUCH AS WINNEMUCCA...SOME RAIN AND OR SNOW
SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE...HOWEVER WARMER AIR AND SURFACE TEMPERATURES
SHOULD PROHIBIT ANY SIGNIFICANT NEW SNOW ACCUMULATIONS. IN THESE
LOWER ELEVATION AREAS THE MAIN CONCERN TODAY WILL BE STRONG GUSTY
WINDS. BY THIS AFTERNOON SNOW SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO SET UP OVER
SOUTHEASTERN ELKO COUNTY AS WELL AS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN LANDER
AND EUREKA COUNTIES. SNOW SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE OVERNIGHT AND INTO
TUESDAY...EXPANDING SOUTH TO INCLUDE WHITE PINE AND NORTHEASTERN
NYE COUNTY. HAVE ISSUED A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR SNOW IN
THESE AREAS WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM 4PM TODAY THROUGH 4PM TUESDAY.
MAY SEE SOME LIGHT SHOWER ACTIVITY LINGERING INTO TUESDAY
NIGHT...HOWEVER BY WEDNESDAY SOME WEAK RIDGING WILL SET UP WITH
THE CWA UNDER NORTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT. THE COMBINATION OF COLD
NWLY FLOW ALOFT AND RECENT SNOWS WILL RESULT IN SIGNIFICANTLY
LOWER TEMPERATURES BOTH TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. SINGLE DIGIT
LOW TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED IN MOST VALLEY LOCATIONS TUESDAY
NIGHT...WITH HIGHS WEDNESDAY CONFINED TO THE MID TO UPPER 20S.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY. DEEP UPPER LOW DIGGING
SOUTHWARD OFF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST COAST WILL PUT NORTHERN AND
CENTRAL NEVADA UNDER SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. SOME MOISTURE WILL BRUSH
HUMBOLDT COUNTY FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF A FEW SHOWERS. MODELS DIVERGE
ON SATURDAY WITH THE GFS SHEARING OUT A SIGNIFICANT PIECE OF
ENERGY OUT OF THE OFFSHORE TROUGH AND MOVING IT INTO NORTHERN
NEVADA WHILE THE ECMWF DIGS ENERGY SOUTHWARD ELONGATING THE TROUGH
AND KEEPING THE AREA DRY EXCEPT FOR SOME SHOWERS OVER HUMBOLDT
COUNTY. WITH THESE MODEL DIFFERENCES LEFT THE INHERITED FORECAST
AS IS WITH ANY SHOWERS CONFINED TO HUMBOLDT COUNTY. ON SUNDAY THE
ECMWF MOVES THE UPPER TROUGH ONSHORE AND INTO THE GREAT BASIN. THE
GFS SHOWS MORE OF A MOIST ZONAL FLOW WITH EMBEDDED SHORTWAVES.
EITHER WAY WILL SEE SOME SHOWERS. BUMPED UP POPS TO ACCOUNT FOR
THIS BUT NOT AS MUCH AS SEEMS WARRANTED AS NEIGHBORING OFFICES
KEPT THEIR POPS RATHER LOW.

AVIATION...STRONG SURFACE LOW OVER OREGON/IDAHO WILL PRODUCE STRONG
SOUTHERLY WINDS OVER NORTHER NEVADA WITH GUSTS OVER 50 MPH. AS
SURFACE LOW MOVES OFF TO THE EAST THIS AFTERNOON WINDS WILL
DIMINISH. MOIST WESTERLY FLOW WILL PRODUCE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS ACROSS NORTHERN NEVADA TODAY. CIGS/VSBYS WILL REMAIN MOSTLY
VFR. LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DIGGING SOUTHWARD INTO NORTHERN AND CENTRAL
NEVADA TONIGHT WILL BRING INCREASING SNOW MAINLY TO CENTRAL NEVADA
WITH CIGS/VSBYS FALLING TO MVFR/IFR.
