AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RENO NV
541 AM PST FRI NOV 9 2012

.UPDATE...
STATIONARY BAND OF SNOW CONTINUES TO HANG AROUND NORTHERN PLUMAS
AND LASSEN COUNTIES FROM JUST SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 36 TO CROSSING
HIGHWAY 395 BETWEEN SUSANVILLE AND HONEY LAKE AND EXTENDED OVER
THE RUSH FIRE BURN AREA. WHILE RADAR RETURNS ARE UNIMPRESSIVE,
THE CALTRANS WEB CAM AT JANESVILLE AND COLD CLOUD TOPS ON INFRARED
SATELLITE SHOW A STEADY PERIOD SNOW SINCE MIDNIGHT. A SPOTTER IN
JANESVILLE RECENTLY REPORTED A TOTAL OF 11 INCHES OF SNOW SINCE
YESTERDAY AFTERNOON, WITH 6 INCHES OF THE TOTAL OCCURRING FROM THE
PERSISTENT SNOW BAND.

BASED ON THE CHAIN CONTROLS ALONG HIGHWAY 395, WHICH IS RUNNING
PERPENDICULAR TO THE SNOW BAND, THE BAND IS ONLY 9 MILES WIDE. WHILE
THE ACCUMULATIONS WITHIN IN THE BAND ARE SIGNIFICANT THEIR IMPACT
IS LIMITED TO A SMALL AREA. THIS STORY WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
SATURDAY AS THE COLD AND UNSTABLE LOW IS FAVORABLE FOR ABUNDANT
SNOW SHOWERS WITH EMBEDDED HEAVY SNOW BANDS. IN THE HEAVIEST
BANDS, SNOWFALL RATES OF 1-2 INCHES WILL OCCUR. BRONG

&&

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 250 AM PST FRI NOV 9 2012/

SHORT TERM...

THE COLD FRONT WHICH BROUGHT STRONG WINDS TO THE REGION YESTERDAY
HAS EXITED THE CWA LEAVING SNOW SHOWERS AND A MUCH COLDER AIR MASS
OVER NORTHEAST CALIFORNIA AND NORTHWEST NEVADA. AS THE UPPER LEVEL
LOW MOVES OVER THE REGION TODAY, THE VERY COLD AND UNSTABLE AIR
MASS WILL HELP TO RE-INTENSIFY THE SNOW SHOWERS. WILL CONTINUE THE
WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES FROM THE TAHOE BASIN NORTHWARD INTO
LASSEN AND PLUMAS COUNTIES. NV DOT AND CAL TRANS ARE BOTH REPORTING
CHAIN RESTRICTIONS THROUGH MUCH OF THE SIERRA, SO IF TRAVELING
THIS MORNING PLEASE CHECK THE LATEST ROAD CONDITIONS AND ALLOW
EXTRA TIME.

THE MAIN CONCERN OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS THE POTENTIAL FOR LAKE
ENHANCED BANDS OF SNOW TO FORM OFF OF LAKE TAHOE AND PYRAMID LAKE.
THE PROS FOR THIS SCENARIO IS THE COLD AND VERY UNSTABLE AIR MASS
MOVING ACROSS THE RELATIVELY WARM LAKE WATERS, AND MODIFIED
SOUNDINGS ARE SHOWING NEARLY 2000 J/KG OF CAPE. THE DOWNSIDE,
HOWEVER MAY BE THE WINDS ALOFT. IN THE NAM BUFR SOUNDINGS, THE
WIND IS FAIRLY UNIDIRECTIONAL, BUT SPEEDS NEAR 40KTS AT TAHOE
RIDGE LEVEL WOULD SHEAR APART THE CONVECTIVE COLUMNS AND GREATLY
LIMIT ACCUMULATIONS. IN THE GFS BUFR SOUNDING, THERE IS A BIT TOO
MUCH DIRECTIONAL SHEAR, WHICH WOULD PREVENT A SUSTAINED LAKE
EFFECT BAND FROM DEVELOPING. THE OTHER ITEM OF NOTE IS SEVERAL
SHORTWAVES MOVING AROUND THE BASE OF THE UPPER LOW MAY EXTEND THE
AREAL COVERAGE OF THE SHOWERS AND DECREASE THE POTENTIAL FOR A
PURE LAKE EFFECT EVENT. WITH THE UNCERTAINTY, WILL KEEP THE LAKE
EFFECT SNOW WATCHES IN PLACE DOWNWIND OF LAKE TAHOE AND PYRAMID
LAKE. IF BANDS ARE TO SET UP, THE MOST LIKELY PLACE FOR
SIGNIFICANT SNOW ACCUMULATIONS WOULD BE SOUTH AND EAST OF THE
LAKES.

MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW ENHANCED SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED
WITH THE WAVES MOVING AROUND THE BASE OF THE LOW, BUT HAVE
DIFFERED GREATLY IN THE EXACT PLACEMENT OF THE HEAVIER SHOWERS.
THE NAM DEVELOPS A LARGER AREA OF SNOW FROM THE TAHOE BASIN
EASTWARD THROUGH RENO-CARSON TO FALLON AND LOVELOCK. IF THIS
OCCURS, AN EXTENSION OF THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY WOULD BE NEEDED
FOR THE TAHOE BASIN WITH NEW ADVISORIES FOR RENO-CARSON-FALLON AND
LOVELOCK TONIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. ADDITIONAL
ACCUMULATIONS UP TO 4 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE EVEN ON THE WESTERN
NEVADA VALLEY FLOORS.

AS THE COLD POOL BEGINS TO SHIFT EASTWARD SATURDAY AFTERNOON,
SHOWERS WILL TAPER OFF AND PARTIAL CLEARING CAN BE EXPECTED
OVERNIGHT. THE FRESH SNOW ALONG WITH CLEARING SKIES WILL HELP TO
MAXIMIZE THE RADIATIONAL COOLING AND SOME OF THE COLDEST
TEMPERATURES SO FAR THIS SEASON CAN BE EXPECTED SUNDAY MORNING.
WIDESPREAD TEENS AND SINGLE DIGITS ARE LIKELY IN WESTERN NEVADA,
AND SOME COLDER, SNOW COVERED SIERRA VALLEYS, INCLUDING TRUCKEE,
MAY BE AT OR BELOW ZERO.

WEAK UPPER LEVEL RIDGING BUILDS INTO THE WEST SUNDAY, HELPING TO
CLEAR SKIES AND BRING WARMING ALOFT. WITH COLD AIR TRAPPED AT THE
SURFACE, STRONG INVERSIONS WILL BE IN PLACE. MOUNTAINS WILL WARM
BY 10 TO 15 DEGREES SATURDAY TO SUNDAY, WHILE VALLEYS WILL ONLY
SEE 5 OR SO DEGREES OF WARMING. DF

LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...

RELATIVELY LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST FOR THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK AS
MODELS STRUGGLE WITH A SPLITTING SYSTEM DROPPING SOUTH FROM THE GULF
OF ALASKA.  OVERALL MADE MINIMAL CHANGES OVER THE PREVIOUS FORECAST
DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY.

MONDAY SHOULD BE DRY WITH A FLAT RIDGE BUILDING OVER THE DESERT
SOUTHWEST.  THERE IS SOME MOISTURE PUSHING INTO NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
AHEAD OF THE INCOMING TROUGH.  HOWEVER THERE IS LITTLE IN THE WAY OF
LIFT, SO PROBABLY GOING TO BE A CLOUDY AND COOL START TO THE WEEK.

MODEL DIFFERENCES BEGIN TO INCREASE TUESDAY WITH THE GFS DROPPING
THE TROUGH TO NEAR THE WEST COAST. THIS WOULD KEEP THE COOL AND
CLOUDY CONDITIONS GOING WITH A CHANCE OF RAIN/SNOW NORTH OF
TRUCKEE TO GERLACH. THE ECMWF KEEPS THE SYSTEM WELL OFFSHORE WITH
A WARMER SOUTHWEST FLOW INTO THE SIERRA AND WESTERN NEVADA AND NO
CHANCE OF RAIN/SNOW UNTIL THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

DESPITE THE MODEL DIFFERENCES WITH THE SYSTEM, IMPACTS APPEAR TO BE
MINIMAL WITH LIQUID AMOUNTS NEAR OR BELOW 0.25 INCHES IN THE
SIERRA. THE WIND THREAT IS ALSO LOW, THOUGH THERE COULD BE A
BREEZY DAY EITHER TUESDAY BASED ON THE GFS SOLUTION, OR THURSDAY
IF THE ECMWF IS CORRECT. BRONG

AVIATION...

COLD AND UNSTABLE SYSTEM OVER THE SIERRA AND WESTERN NEVADA WILL
CONTINUE TO PRODUCE BANDS OF SNOW SHOWERS THROUGH SATURDAY. THE
STRONGER SHOWERS WILL LOWER CEILINGS AND VISIBILITY TO IFR WITH A
COUPLE INCHES ON SNOW POSSIBLE ON RUNWAYS AND TARMACS.

ONE CONCERN IS POTENTIAL FOR LAKE EFFECT SNOW BANDS IMPACTING THE
CARSON CITY AIRPORT LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY. HOWEVER A
SECONDARY WAVE MAY DROP INTO THE RENO-TAHOE AREA TONIGHT AND PRODUCE
A LARGER AREA OF SNOW FROM TAHOE BASIN AND ACROSS WESTERN NEVADA.
IMPACTS WOULD BE IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE AT THE TAHOE TERMINALS,
INTO THE RENO-CARSON-MINDEN AREA AND TO FALLON AND LOVELOCK.

DUE TO THE COLD AND UNSTABLE NATURE OF THE SYSTEM, SNOW FALL RATES
OF 1 TO 2 INCHES PER HOUR ARE LIKELY WITH THE STRONGER SHOWERS.
THIS MAY PRODUCE SEVERAL INCHES OF ACCUMULATION IN A SHORT PERIOD
OF TIME IF THE SNOW BANDS MOVE SLOWLY AND LINGER OVER A TERMINAL.
THERE IS A CHANCE SOME TERMINALS WILL NOT BE IMPACTED BY HEAVY
SNOW SHOWERS AND THUS ACCUMULATIONS WILL BE MINIMAL. BRONG
