NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
242 PM PDT SUN JUL 27 2014

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

.SHORT TERM...THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...WILL BE BRIEF AS THUNDERSTORMS
ARE FIRING NORTH OF A LINE FROM MOUNTAIN PASS CA TO THE WEST RIM OF
THE GRAND CANYON AS OF 2 PM. HIGH RESOLUTION MODELS HAVE BEEN DOING
QUITE WELL WITH THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE THE PAST FEW DAYS...AND THEY
SUGGEST MORE COVERAGE FOR TOMORROW. LOTS OF MOISTURE IN PLACE SO THE
MAIN THREAT WILL CONTINUE TO BE FLASH FLOODING. MADE NO CHANGES TO
TUESDAY AS THIS EVENING AND TOMORROW WERE THE MAIN CONCERNS.

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...AN UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE
RIDGE WILL REMAIN ANCHORED IN PLACE OVER THE SW US FOR MOST OF THE
PERIOD. THIS WILL KEEP THE AREA RELATIVELY MOIST AND ACTIVE WITH
AFTERNOON CONVECTION FOR MOST OF THE WEEK. ALTHOUGH MONDAY IS LIKELY
TO BE THE MOST ACTIVE DAY. POPS AND CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE SOMEWHAT LOWER THROUGH THE WEEK AS THE SOUTHERLY FLOW IS SOMEWHAT
WEAKER. AFTERNOON SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE MOST LIKELY TO
OCCUR OVER MOHAVE COUNTY AND HIGHER TERRAIN IN CLARK AND EASTERN SAN
BERNARDINO COUNTY.

AN AFOREMENTIONED UPPER LEVEL TROF WILL SINK SOUTH OVER THE PACIFIC
COAST NEXT WEEKEND. THIS MAY BRING ABOUT SOME STRONGER MID-LEVEL
FORCING FOR CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY. WE WILL NEED TO SEE HOW THINGS
DEVELOP OVER THE COURSE OF THE WEEK.

BRING ERRATIC GUSTY WINDS AT TIMES THIS EVENING AND AGAIN ON MONDAY.
