AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
205 PM PDT SAT JUL 26 2014

.SYNOPSIS...MONSOON MOISTURE WILL BRING A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS TO
MUCH OF THE AREA THROUGH AT LEAST THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK.
TEMPERATURES WILL GENERALLY BE NEAR NORMAL.
&&

.SHORT TERM...THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...THUNDERSTORMS WERE CONFINED TO
MOHAVE...CLARK AND LINCOLN COUNTIES AS OF 2 PM...BUT A FEW CLOUDS
WERE STARTING TO DEVELOP OVER FAR SOUTHERN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY.
EXPECT THUNDERSTORM CHANCES TO EXPAND NORTHWEST THROUGH MUCH OF THE
REST OF THE CWA TOMORROW AS THE MOISTURE PUSHES FARTHER NORTHWEST
UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF LARGE SCALE SOUTHERLY FLOW PLUS THE EFFECTS
OF ANY OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES.

.LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...MONSOON MOISTURE CONTINUES
MONDAY BRINGING ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF THE
CWA.  A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL SHIFT A LITTLE FURTHER SOUTH ACROSS
ARIZONA/NEW MEXICO TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY SHIFTING THE BEST
MONSOONAL MOISTURE INTO MEXICO. DESPITE THE OVERALL DRYING TREND,
ENOUGH RESIDUAL MOISTURE WILL REMAIN IN PLACE FOR ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN THROUGH MOST OF THE
WEEK...ESPECIALLY IN MOHAVE COUNTY.  ON FRIDAY...A WEAK TROUGH WILL
BEGIN TO DEVELOP OFF THE COAST OF NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA WHICH WILL
STRENGTHEN THE SOUTHERLY FLOW ACROSS THE SOUTHERN GREAT BASIN AND
MOJAVE DESERT. MEANWHILE...MODELS ARE BEGINNING TO PICK UP ON A
POSSIBLE FEATURE ROTATING THROUGH THE SOUTHERLY FLOW WHICH MAY
ENHANCE THUNDERSTORM CHANCES FRIDAY INTO NEXT WEEKEND. DETAILS STILL
ARE FAR FROM CLEAR BUT JUSTIFY A SLIGHT INCREASE IN POPS FROM FRIDAY
ONWARD.

TEMPERATURES WILL AVERAGE NEAR TO A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH
THE EXTENDED PERIOD...WITH THE WARMEST TEMPERATURES EXPECTED
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY.
&&

.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...THERE WILL BE A SLIGHTLY HIGHER CHANCE OF
A STORM AT THE TERMINAL...WITH HIGHER CHANCES IN THE MORMON
MESA...PEACH SPRINGS...AND DAGGETT CORRIDORS. ANY THUNDERSTORMS
COULD PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND LOW CEILINGS ALONG WITH ERRATIC
GUSTY WINDS.

FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...THUNDERSTORMS WILL PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND LOW
CEILINGS ALONG WITH ERRATIC GUSTY WINDS.
&&

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT EXPECTED
AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER...SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO REPORT ANY
SIGNIFICANT WEATHER CONDITIONS ACCORDING TO STANDARD OPERATING
PROCEDURES.
