AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
304 PM PDT SAT OCT 20 2012
.SYNOPSIS...A PACIFIC STORM SYSTEM WILL BRING INCREASING WINDS AND A
COOLING TREND TO THE AREA THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. IN
ADDITION A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS WILL BE SEEN OVER NORTHWEST
ARIZONA ON SUNDAY AND THEN MAINLY THE SOUTHERN SIERRA MONDAY AND
TUESDAY.
&&
.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...TRANQUIL WEATHER TO
CONTINUE THROUGH TONIGHT BEFORE A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE DIGGING
SOUTH ALONG THE WEST COAST BEGINS TO IMPACT THE REGION LATE SUNDAY
AND INTO MONDAY. AS THIS SYSTEM SHIFTS SOUTH ON SUNDAY...MOISTURE
FROM OFF THE BAJA COAST WITH SHIFT NORTH INTO NORTHWEST ARIZONA.
THIS WILL RESULT IN A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS SUNDAY AFTERNOON/
EARLY EVENING ACROSS MOHAVE COUNTY BEFORE CLEARING SUNDAY NIGHT. AT
THE SAME TIME INCREASED SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL BEGIN TO BRING LOCALLY
BREEZY CONDITIONS TO THE WESTERN DESERT OF SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY.
BY SUNDAY NIGHT INCREASED SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL MOVE OVER THE
SOUTHERN SIERRA WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR DOWNSLOPE WINDS FORMING OVER
THE SOUTHERN SIERRA EAST SLOPES AND THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE OWENS
VALLEY LATE SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS POTENTIAL CONTINUES INTO MONDAY WITH
THE BEST CHANCE FOR DOWNSLOPE WINDS LOOKING TO BE EARLY MONDAY
MORNING AND AGAIN LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING. WILL ISSUE A
HIGH WIND WATCH WITH THIS PACKAGE DUE TO THESE POTENTIAL WINDS. AT
THE SAME TIME...THE INCREASING FLOW ALOFT/SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENTS
WILL INCREASE SOUTHWEST SURFACE WINDS ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA MONDAY
AFTERNOON ALSO. WIND ADVISORIES MAY BE NEEDED...ESPECIALLY OVER THE
WESTERN SAN BERNARDINO DESERT REGION AND THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF
INYO COUNTY...BUT WILL ADDRESS THIS IN LATER PACKAGES.
AT THIS TIME...MOISTURE APPEARS WILL BE LIMITED WITH THIS SYSTEM AS
IT MOVES INTO THE AREA...BUT SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED OVER THE SOUTHERN
SIERRA BEGINNING MONDAY MORNING AND THEN CONTINUING INTO THE LONG
TERM.
AS CAN BE EXPECTED WITH A STORM THAT ORIGINATED IN THE GULF OF
ALASKA...COLDER AIR WILL BE MOVING INTO THE REGION AS THE SYSTEM
DROPS SOUTH. HOWEVER FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY...TEMPERATURES ARE ONLY
EXPECTED TO DROP TO A FEW DEGREES BELOW NORMAL BEFORE FURTHER
COOLING IS SEEN IN THE LONG TERM.
.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...TROUGHING IS WELL ENTRENCHED
TO BEGIN THE LONG TERM AND THIS PATTERN IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE
THROUGH LATE THURSDAY OR EARLY FRIDAY...DEPENDING ON THE MODEL. WITH
THE TROUGH IN PLACE...GUSTY WINDS AND COOLER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
THROUGH WEDNESDAY WITH A SLOW WARMING TREND THEREAFTER.
IT IS LIKELY THAT THERE WILL BE A NEED FOR AT LEAST WIND ADVISORY
PRODUCTS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE MOJAVE DESERT.
CURRENT THINKING IS THAT THERE WILL BE GUSTS BETWEEN 40 AND 50
MPH...ESPECIALLY IN THE WESTERN DESERTS OF SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY
ALONG THE I-15 CORRIDOR BOTH DAYS. A COLD FRONT THEN MARCHES SOUTH
THROUGH THE AREA ON THURSDAY BUT WIND SPEEDS DO NOT LOOK SIGNIFICANT
AT THIS TIME. DEEPER MOISTURE IS STILL FORECAST TO BE NORTH OF THE
AREA AND THUS...SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO BE CONFINED TO MAINLY THE
NORTHERN MOUNTAIN ZONES.
MODELS AGREE WITH ANOTHER PATTERN SHIFT LATE IN THE WEEK AND INTO
NEXT WEEKEND AS THE TROUGH SHIFTS EAST OF THE AREA AND DRY NORTHWEST
FLOW RETURNS TO THE WESTERN CONUS. THIS PATTERN WOULD RESULT IN
LIGHTER WINDS AND WARMER TEMPERATURES...PROBABLY BACK TO NEAR NORMAL
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.
&&
.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...EAST TO SOUTHEAST WIND IS EXPECTED TO
VEER TO THE SOUTHEAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON THEN BECOME PREDOMINATELY
SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST TONIGHT THROUGH AT LEAST MONDAY. BY MID AFTERNOON
SUNDAY...KLAS SHOULD SEE GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS UP TO 25 KTS WITH
EVEN STRONGER WINDS EXPECTED MONDAY AS A PACIFIC STORM MOVES INTO
THE WEST COAST. THE SKY WILL BE MOSTLY CLEAR THROUGH MUCH OF SUNDAY
BUT AN INCREASE IN HIGH CLOUDS AOA 20K FEET IS EXPECTED SUNDAY NIGHT
INTO MONDAY.
FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...WINDS WILL BE PREDOMINATELY OUT OF THE SOUTH THROUGH
THE AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT THEN INCREASE WITH GUSTS TO AROUND 25 MPH
SUNDAY AFTERNOON. A MAJOR CHANGE IN THE WEATHER PATTERN WILL BRING
