250 AM PST MON MAR 4 2013

.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...SATELLITE INDICATES
CLOUD TOPS ARE WARMING ACROSS LINCOLN COUNTY WITH AREAL COVERAGE OF
SHOWERS SHOWN ON RADAR SHRINKING. RADAR SHOWS ISOLATED LIGHT SHOWERS
OVER NORTHWEST CLARK COUNTY DISSIPATING...WHILE BECOME MORE
SCATTERED ACROSS NORTHEAST CLARK AND SOUTHEAST LINCOLN COUNTIES.
ISOLATED LIGHT SHOWERS OVER NORTHERN MOHAVE COUNTY WILL NOT MAKE IT
MUCH PAST SUNRISE THIS MORNING AS THE WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE
SLIDES SOUTHEAST INTO CENTRAL ARIZONA. OTHERWISE...LOCALLY BREEZY
NORTH WINDS AND COOLER TODAY BEHIND THE PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT.
THE CLOUDINESS WILL DISSIPATE AS WELL THIS MORNING AS A RIDGE
QUICKLY TRAVERSES THE REGION TODAY AND TONIGHT. SOUTHWEST FLOW
INCREASES TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY AS A MUCH BROADER AND STRONGER LOW
MOVES TO OFF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST COAST. SURFACE PRESSURE FALLS IN
THE LEE OF THE SIERRA ACROSS THE WESTERN GREAT BASIN WILL LEAD TO
THE DEVELOPMENT OF GUSTY SOUTH-SOUTHEAST WINDS UP THE OWENS
VALLEY...AND IN THE VALLEYS OF ESMERALDA AND CENTRAL NYE COUNTY
TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL DEVELOP
ACROSS THE MOJAVE DESERT WEDNESDAY WITH SOME POTENTIAL FOR A

VALLEY AS WELL AS THE SPRING MOUNTAINS IN CLARK COUNTY. MOISTURE ON
THE SOUTHEAST PERIPHERY OF THE TROUGH WILL BE LIMITED AS AN INITIAL
SHORTWAVE TROUGH MINORS OUT AS IT EJECTS INLAND ACROSS NORTHWEST
NEVADA WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THIS WILL KEEP THE INITIAL BANDS OF
SHOWERS CONFINED TO NORTHERN INYO...ESMERALDA AND CENTRAL NYE
COUNTIES WEDNESDAY EVENING. LITTLE CHANGE IN TEMPERATURES IS
EXPECTED TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

.LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...UNSETTLED WEATHER IS EXPECTED
AS LOW PRESSURE SETTLES INTO THE AREA THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

STORM EXCEPT FOR A POTENTIAL WIND ADVISORY IN THE COLORADO RIVER
VALLEY SUNDAY. OTHERWISE...MAINLY BREEZY TO LOCALLY WINDY AND COOLER
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS.

THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS WILL LIKELY TAKE THE BRUNT OF PRECIPITATION
FROM THIS STORM AND MUCH OF IT WILL BE IN THE FORM OF SNOW AS SNOW
LEVELS ARE EXPECTED BETWEEN 3000 AND 4000 FT WHEN THE LOW PASSES
THROUGH THE AREA. MODELS GENERALLY KEEP THE DESERT AREAS DRY BUT A
SLIGHT CHANCE OF A SHOWER CANNOT BE RULED OUT. TOTAL PRECIP AMOUNTS
IN THE DESERTS GENERALLY UNDER A TENTH THROUGH THE LIFE OF THE STORM
WITH UPWARDS OF A QUARTER INCH IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. LOCALLY
HIGHER AMOUNTS ARE POSSIBLE. CURRENTLY...SNOW AMOUNTS ARE EXPECTED
TO REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA BUT THIS WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED
ESPECIALLY IN AREAS EAST AND NORTH OF THE LOW AS IT CROSSES THE
MOJAVE DESERT.

WINDS OVERALL ARE FORECAST IN THE 10-20 MPH RANGE WITH HIGHER GUSTS
THROUGH MUCH OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD. STRONGER WEST WINDS COULD
APPROACH WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA IN THE WESTERN MOJAVE DESERT FRIDAY
AFTERNOON. IN ADDITION...WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 40 MPH ARE POSSIBLE
SUNDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING IN THE COLORADO RIVER VALLEY.

TEMPERATURES WILL GENERALLY BE AROUND 5 DEGREES COOLER ON THURSDAY
