AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
250 PM PDT TUE OCT 6 2015

.SYNOPSIS...ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL FINALLY COME TO
AN END TONIGHT AS AN AREA OF LOW CONTINUES ITS SOUTHEAST
PROGRESSION. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE AREA ALLOWING FOR DRY
CONDITIONS ALONG WITH A WARMING TREND THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
WEEK.
&&

.SHORT TERM...THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT.

UPPER LOW LIES WEST OF PHOENIX THIS AFTERNOON WITH STRONG ORGANIZED
CONVECTION EAST OF MOHAVE COUNTY. HOWEVER...WE ARE SEEING A FEW
STRONGER CELLS DEVELOP NEAR BULLHEAD CITY AND SOUTHWEST OF KINGMAN
ALONG THE WESTERN SLOPES OF THE HUALAPAI. THIS ACTIVITY WILL PERSIST
INTO EARLY EVENING BEFORE DISSIPATING DUE TO LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING
AND UPPER LOW SHIFTING FURTHER EAST.

UPPER LOW WILL SLOWLY MOVE SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS SOUTHEAST ARIZONA
AND INTO NORTHWEST MEXICO WEDNESDAY - FRIDAY. UPSTREAM OF THE LOW WE
ARE LOOKING AT A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN ACROSS NEVADA
AND CALIFORNIA. ENJOY THE COOL WEATHER FOR NOW AS TEMPERATURES
QUICKLY CLIMB BACK TO ABOVE NORMAL THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

.LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.

HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO DOMINATE THROUGH THE WEEKEND WITH ABOVE
NORMAL TEMPERATURES (LOW-MID 90'S FOR LAS VEGAS).

MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE THAT THE SAME UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL
RETROGRADE WEST ACROSS NORTHERN MEXICO AND OVER THE PACIFIC SOUTH OF
SAN DIEGO OVER THE WEEKEND THEN DRIFT BACK NORTHEAST TOWARDS OUR
AREA SOMETIME NEXT WEEK. RUN-TO-RUN AGREEMENT ON JUST WHERE AND WHEN
THE LOW GOES REMAINS POOR AS EXPECTED FOR THIS TYPE OF FEATURE BUT
GENERAL CONSENSUS CONTINUES TO INDICATE THAT IT COULD BRING MORE
UNSETTLED AND WET WEATHER TO THE REGION.
&&

.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...ISOLATED SHOWERS COMING OFF THE SPRING
MOUNTAINS AND SHEEP RANGE ARE MOVING TOWARD THE SOUTHWEST AND WILL
NOT IMPACT THE LAS VEGAS. SKIES WILL CLEAR THIS EVENING NO
OPERATIONALLY SIGNIFICANT CLOUDS WEDNESDAY. A NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS
DIRECTION WITH SPEEDS LESS THAN 10 KTS LOOKS TO BE FAVORED INTO THIS
EVENING AND AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL PRIMARILY BE ACROSS
SOUTHERN MOHAVE COUNTY INTO THIS EVENING. ELSEWHERE LIGHT SHOWERS
ARE POSSIBLE NEAR THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF NORTHERN MOHAVE
COUNTY...SOUTHERN NEVADA AND EASTERN CALIFORNIA.

DEVELOPMENT WILL OCCUR OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN WEDNESDAY. NORTH TO
