AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RENO NV
321 PM PDT MON SEP 23 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER NORTHEAST CALIFORNIA AND WESTERN NEVADA WILL
BREAK DOWN TUESDAY. A POWERFUL COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH TUESDAY
AND TUESDAY NIGHT WITH STRONG WINDS ALONG WITH SHOWERS AND MUCH
COLDER TEMPERATURES BY WEDNESDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL SLOWLY MODIFY
TO NEAR AVERAGE BY NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
LOWERED SNOW LEVELS A BIT FURTHER WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND WILL ISSUE A
WIND ADVISORY FOR SOME AREAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND TUESDAY NIGHT.
A RATHER VIGOROUS UPPER DISTURBANCE OFF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST
COAST WILL MOVE INLAND TUESDAY AHEAD OF AN UPPER TROUGH WHICH WILL
MOVE INTO OREGON, CALIFORNIA, AND NEVADA ON WEDNESDAY. THE SYSTEM
WILL BRING WINDY CONDITIONS TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT WITH SHOWERS
AND MUCH COLDER TEMPERATURES ON WEDNESDAY.

REGARDING THE LEAD DISTURBANCE FOR TUESDAY, IT WILL PUSH A SURFACE
COLD FRONT INTO NORTHERN CALIFORNIA AND WESTERN NEVADA TUESDAY
AFTERNOON. EXCEPT FOR AREAS OVER FAR NORTHERN LASSEN AND WASHOE
COUNTIES THE FRONT LOOKS DRY AS DEEP MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY
WILL AWAIT THE ARRIVAL OF THE MAIN UPPER TROUGH/COLD POOL ON
WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. STILL, THE FRONT WILL BRING STRONG,
GUSTY WINDS MAINLY SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 80 WHERE WIND-PRONE AREAS
WILL SEE GUSTS UP TO 60 MPH OR SO. WITH ALL THIS IN MIND, A WIND
ADVISORY WILL BE IN EFFECT FOR WESTERN NEVADA AND SOUTHWARD THROUGH
MONO COUNTY.

TUESDAY NIGHT, WINDS COULD BE STRONG ALL NIGHT IN SOME AREAS OF
MONO COUNTY ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF LEE VINING. THIS WILL BE DUE TO
NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT AND A PERSISTENT SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT
BETWEEN THE SIERRA AND SOUTHERN NEVADA WHICH IS FAVORABLE FOR
STRONG WINDS TO FUNNEL THROUGH THE SIERRA INTO THE MAMMOTH LAKES
AND CROWLEY LAKE AREA.

PRECIP-WISE, THE SYSTEM LOOKS ANEMIC WITH SHALLOW MOISTURE UNTIL
THE MAIN COLD POOL ARRIVES LATE ON WEDNESDAY. ONCE THE COLD POOL
ARRIVES MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW SOME MODEST INSTABILITY SO AT LEAST
SCATTERED CONVECTIVE SHOWERS SHOULD DEVELOP NORTH OF HIGHWAY 50.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT, THE AXIS OF THE UPPER TROUGH SWINGS THROUGH
WESTERN NEVADA. AS THE TRACK LOOKS LIKE AN "INSIDE SLIDER" TYPE
SYSTEM THERE COULD BE FORCING FOR NARROW HEAVIER BANDS OF RAIN AND
SNOW OVER SOME PORTION OF WESTERN NEVADA. WHERE THAT WILL BE IS
MORE DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN AT THIS TIME BUT INSTABILITY WITH THE
INCOMING SLIDER WILL LIKELY BRING LOWERED SNOW LEVELS. JUST HOW
LOW IS UNCERTAIN BUT IT COULD BE BELOW 5000 FEET ACCORDING TO SOME
MODELS. SNYDER

.LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY...
NORTH TO NORTHEAST FLOW WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES BELOW NORMAL THURSDAY
AND FRIDAY AS THE UPPER LEVEL LOW EXITS NEVADA. HIGH TEMPERATURES
WILL BE IN THE 60S ACROSS THE LOWER VALLEYS WITH 50S TO NEAR 60S IN
THE SIERRA. AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES OVER THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST, A
SURFACE HIGH DEVELOPS ACROSS NORTHERN NEVADA RESULTING IN GUSTY
NORTHEAST TO EAST WINDS OVER THE SIERRA CREST AND LAKE TAHOE
THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY MORNING.

MODELS REMAIN CONSISTENT FOR NEXT WEEKEND WITH A RIDGE BUILDING OVER
THE WESTERN CONUS. AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL REACH THE 70S TO
LOW 80S FOR WESTERN NEVADA WITH 60S TO LOW 70S FOR THE EASTERN
SIERRA AND TAHOE BASIN.

BY SUNDAY, MODEL FORECASTS ARE SHOWING DISAGREEMENT WITH THE
SYNOPTIC (LARGE SCALE) PATTERN. A LONGWAVE TROUGH ANCHORED IN THE
GULF OF ALASKA BEGINS TO EJECT SHORTWAVES INTO THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST. THE ECMWF HOLDS STRONG WITH THE RIDGE IN PLACE OVER THE
SIERRA AND WESTERN NEVADA, WHILE THE GFS ALLOWS THE RIDGE TO
BUCKLE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE SHORTWAVE ENERGY. EKL

&&

.AVIATION...
TROUGH WILL MOVE INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST TUESDAY WITH INCREASING
WINDS OVER RIDGES LATE TONIGHT AND FOR LOWER ELEVATIONS BY TUESDAY
AFTERNOON. PEAK GUSTS AT THE TERMINALS EXPECTED TO REACH 30-35 KTS
FOR NORTHERN SIERRA TERMINALS, 35-45 KTS FOR WESTERN NEVADA
TERMINALS, AND UP TO 45-50 KTS FOR KMMH (ESPECIALLY TUESDAY EVENING).
RIDGE LEVEL WINDS COULD REACH 65-75 KTS WITH TURBULENT APPROACHES
INTO THE SIERRA AND WESTERN NEVADA TERMINALS.

THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO WESTERN NEVADA BY AROUND 03Z
WEDNESDAY AND SOUTH TO AROUND KBIH AND KTPH BY 12Z-15Z WEDNESDAY.
BEHIND THE FRONT THERE SHOULD BRING A REDUCTION IN WINDS BUT LITTLE
CHANCE FOR SHOWERS UNTIL WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT SOUTH OF
INTERSTATE 80. SNOW LEVELS WILL FALL TO AT LEAST 5500 FT MSL
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND POSSIBLY BELOW 5000 FEET MSL WITH MVFR
CONDITIONS AND SNOW SHOWERS POSSIBLE AT KTVL, KTRK. A RAIN/SNOW
MIX MAY OCCUR AT KRNO AND KCXP LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT. SNYDER
&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME STRONG AND GUSTY ON TUESDAY AHEAD OF A
STRONG COLD FRONT. SIGNIFICANT SURFACE THERMAL AND PRESSURE
GRADIENTS ALONG WITH INCREASING 700 MB WINDS OF 35-45 MPH WILL
LIKELY RESULT IN SURFACE WINDS OF 20-35 MPH WITH GUSTS OF 45-55 MPH,
WITH WIND PRONE AREAS POSSIBLY REACHING OVER 60 MPH. RIDGE WINDS
WILL GUST 75-90 MPH. THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE FOCUSED SOUTH OF
INTERSTATE 80 WITH WINDS INCREASING BY AROUND NOON AND CONTINUING
INTO THE EVENING BEFORE DIMINISHING OVERNIGHT. THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO
THIS IS MONO AND MINERAL COUNTIES WHICH MAY CONTINUE TO HAVE WINDS
GUSTING THROUGH MUCH OF THE NIGHT. WIND ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN ISSUED
FOR THE SIERRA FRONT, WEST CENTRAL BASIN AND RANGE, AS WELL AS MONO
AND MINERAL COUNTIES.

HUMIDITY VALUES WILL NOT BE AS LOW AS THEY WERE WITH THE COLD FRONT
ON FRIDAY, THOUGH LOCALLY CRITICAL CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE SOUTH OF
INTERSTATE 80 AND EAST OF HIGHWAY 95. WITH CRITICAL CONDITIONS
FAIRLY LOCALIZED, AND A SHORT DURATION BEFORE HUMIDITY INCREASES,
HAVE OPTED NOT TO ISSUE A RED FLAG WARNING AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER, DO
KEEP IN MIND THAT EVEN WITH THE HIGHER HUMIDITY VALUES, THE GUSTY
WINDS WILL EASILY DRIVE ANY NEW POSSIBLE FIRE STARTS.

PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED AS THE TROUGH MOVES OVER THE REGION ON
WEDNESDAY, BUT AMOUNTS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE AS HIGH AS THIS PAST
WEEKEND. CHANCES EXIST THROUGHOUT NORTHEAST CALIFORNIA, THE SIERRA,
AND NORTHWEST NEVADA, BUT BEST CHANCES WILL REMAIN NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 80. A MUCH COOLER AIR MASS WILL BE IN PLACE WEDNESDAY AND
THURSDAY WITH EXCELLENT HUMIDITY RECOVERY. DJ
