.SYNOPSIS...WARM AND DRY CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED THROUGH THE
MIDDLE OF THE WEEK BEFORE A SIGNIFICANT PATTERN CHANGE RESULTS IN
WINDY CONDITIONS BEGINNING THURSDAY...AND A CHANCE OF VALLEY RAIN
AND MOUNTAIN SNOW FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WITH TEMPERATURES 20 TO 30
DEGREES COOLER THAN THE START OF THE WEEK.
&&

.UPDATE...CLOUD FREE SKIES ACROSS THE CWA THIS EVENING AS A RIDGE OF
HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS OVER THE AREA. CURRENT SHORT TERM FORECAST
REMAINS ON TRACK AND DO NO PLAN ANY UPDATES THIS EVENING.
&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
320 PM PST MON NOV 5 2012

.DISCUSSION...A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE TRANSITIONING ACROSS THE
REGION WILL RESULT IN BENIGN WEATHER THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE
WEEK...WITH TEMPERATURES AVERAGING 10 TO 12 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL AND
WITHIN A FEW DEGREES OF RECORD HIGHS IN MANY LOCATIONS. AN AREA OF
LOW PRESSURE DROPPING SOUTH INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST ON WEDNESDAY
WILL MARK THE BEGINNING OF A COOLING TREND AND PERIOD OF INCREASED
WINDS. BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON THE LOW WILL BE CENTERED ALONG THE
OREGON COAST AND STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE
REGION OUT AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM...WITH OPERATIONAL MODELS ALL
INDICATING BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS AT THE SURFACE BY THURSDAY
AFTERNOON AT ALL LOCATIONS. FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATE WE SHOULD
MIX UP TO APPROXIMATELY 750MB ON AVERAGE ACROSS THE REGION...WHERE
OPERATIONAL MODELS ALL SHOW WIND SPEEDS BETWEEN 30-50KTS...SO WILL
LIKELY SEE ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA...WITH THE
POTENTIAL FOR WARNING LEVEL WINDS LEE OF THE SPRING MOUNTAINS AND
SOUTHERN SIERRA AS LOCAL HI RES MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW A DECENT
DOWNSLOPE SIGNATURE AT THESE LOCATIONS AND MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW VERY
WEAK TO NEUTRAL WIND SHEAR ALOFT.

BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON THE LOW CENTER WILL BE ACROSS SOUTHERN
UTAH...AND WHILE THE THREAT OF DOWNSLOPE WINDS WILL BE DIMINISHED
WITH THE SYSTEM FURTHER SOUTH...ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS WILL REMAIN A
POSSIBILITY DURING THE DAY ACROSS THE MOJAVE DESERT. AS THE COLDER
AIR ALOFT MOVES IN ON FRIDAY...THE CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION WILL
INCREASE FROM NORTH TO SOUTH OVER THE COURSE OF THE DAY...BEING
AREAWIDE BY FRIDAY NIGHT. THIS IS A VERY COLD SYSTEM...AND SNOW
LEVELS LOOK TO DROP TO AROUND 4000 FEET ON AVERAGE ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA. THERE IS NOT A GREAT DEAL OF MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH
THIS SYSTEM...AND WHILE THE GREATEST IMPACTS WILL LIKELY BE WIND...
THE GREATEST FORECAST CHALLENGE IS WITH PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS. OPTED
TO CHANGE VERY LITTLE TO THE INHERITED FORECAST HERE...KEEPING LOW
GRADE BROAD BRUSHED POPS FRIDAY NIGHT AREAWIDE AND QUICKLY DRYING
OUT FROM WEST TO EAST DURING THE DAY ON SATURDAY AS DRY AIR QUICKLY
ADVECTS IN BEHIND THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT. LATEST GUIDANCE POINTS
TO AN EARLY MORNING FRONTAL PASSAGE IN LAS VEGAS...AND COMPLETELY
THROUGH MOHAVE COUNTY BY LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON. BREEZY NORTH WINDS
WILL DEVELOP BEHIND THE FRONT...BUT CONFIDENCE IS HIGH THAT THE
STRONGEST WINDS WITH THIS LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BE THE
SOUTHWESTERLY PREFRONTAL WINDS THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

TEMPERATURES WILL DROP SIGNIFICANTLY WITH THIS SYSTEM WITH FORECAST
HIGH TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY AT LEAST 20 DEGREES COOLER THAN
CURRENT READINGS. THE COLDEST DAY LOOKS TO BE SATURDAY...WITH
TEMPERATURES BEGINNING TO REBOUND ON SUNDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE
CONTINUE TO BUILD BACK IN ACROSS THE REGION.

.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...NO OPERATIONALLY SIGNIFICANT
CLOUDS...WINDS OR WEATHER ARE EXPECTED THROUGH WEDNESDAY. INCREASING
WINDS ARE LIKELY BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON...WITH LOWERING CIGS AND
SHOWERS POSSIBLE FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.

FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...NO OPERATIONALLY SIGNIFICANT CLOUDS...WINDS OR WEATHER
ARE EXPECTED THROUGH WEDNESDAY. INCREASING WINDS ARE LIKELY BY
