AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
300 PM PDT THU JUL 9 2015

.SYNOPSIS...LOW PRESSURE ALONG THE CENTRAL CALIFORNIA COAST WILL
CONTINUE TO SPREAD DRIER...COOLER AIR ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF
THE FORECAST AREA FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THERE WILL STILL BE
ENOUGH MOISTURE AVAILABLE OVER PORTIONS OF INYO COUNTY AND CENTRAL
NYE COUNTIES TO GENERATE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS FRIDAY
AFTERNOON...BUT DRY CONDITIONS EXPECTED EVERYWHERE BY SATURDAY.
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE WEEKEND...BUT
START TO CLIMB CLOSER TO NORMAL BY EARLY NEXT WEEK.
&&

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT... UPPER LOW MOVING
INTO CENTRAL CALIFORNIA HAS HELPED GENERATE FAIRLY WIDESPREAD
THUNDERSTORMS OVER INYO COUNTY TODAY. THE NORTHERN HALF OF INYO
COUNTY HAD A FAIRLY ACTIVE MORNING WITH STRONG LIFT AND
INSTABILITY...BUT THE FOCUS HAS SHIFTED EAST AND SOUTH DURING THE
AFTERNOON WITH DEATH VALLEY NATIONAL PARK AND ESMERALDA COUNTY
SEEING THE BEST DYNAMICS. THE STORMS OVER THOSE AREAS HAVE VERY
LITTLE MOVEMENT AND FLASH FLOODING WILL REMAIN A CONCERN INTO THE
EARLY EVENING. FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW
STORMS DEVELOPING OVER PORTIONS OF CLARK...NYE AND LINCOLN
COUNTIES...BUT THOSE STORMS HAVE BEEN MOVING FAIRLY QUICKLY AND SO
FAR HAVE NOT CAUSED ANY PROBLEMS. THE MAIN SHORTWAVE ASSOCIATED WITH
THE LOW WILL LIFT NORTH THIS EVENING AND STORMS WILL GRADUALLY
DISSIPATE AROUND SUNSET...ALTHOUGH A FEW STORMS MAY LINGER INTO THIS
EVENING ACROSS THE FAR NORTHERN AREAS OF THE CWA. DRIER AIR WILL
CONTINUE TO MOVE INTO THE REGION FRIDAY WITH MOST OF THE AREA
THUNDERSTORM FREE. THE ONLY AREA OF CONCERN WILL STILL BE PORTIONS
OF INYO COUNTY AND CENTRAL NYE COUNTIES...BUT ANY STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO BE MORE ISOLATED. DRIER AND MORE STABLE AIR WILL PUSH IN
FOR SATURDAY WITH DRY CONDITIONS ALONG WITH BELOW NORMAL
TEMPERATURES AREAWIDE.

.LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

THE LATEST MEDIUM RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE A DRY SOUTHWEST
FLOW REMAINING IN PLACE ACROSS SOUTHEAST CALIFORNIA AND SOUTHERN
NEVADA MUCH OF NEXT WEEK DUE TO A MEAN TROUGH HOLDING ALONG THE WEST
COAST. AN AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO BE CIRCULATING OVER
EASTERN NEW MEXICO AND NORTHERN TEXAS THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK. THE GFS INDICATES SOUTHERLY FLOW OVER WESTERN ARIZONA MAY
BRING SOME MOISTURE UP INTO MOHAVE COUNTY AS EARLY AS SUNDAY THEN
THE MOISTURE BOUNDARY REMAINS NEAR MOHAVE COUNTY THROUGH AT LEAST
THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN
IN PORTIONS OF OUR NORTHWEST ARIZONA ZONES ACCORDINGLY.
OTHERWISE...THIS PATTERN WILL RESULT IN SOUTHWEST BREEZES OF 10 TO
20 MPH EACH AFTERNOON AND TEMPERATURES INCREASING A DEGREE OR TWO
SUNDAY AND MONDAY LEADING TO NEAR NORMAL READINGS MUCH OF NEXT WEEK
WITH HIGHS OF 103 TO 109 ACROSS THE MOJAVE DESERT AND COLORADO RIVER
VALLEY ZONES.
&&

.AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...SOUTH WINDS BETWEEN 20-30KTS EXPECTED
THROUGH 03Z BEFORE SHIFTING MORE TO THE SOUTHWEST AND DISSIPATING TO
AROUND 10KTS. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH
SUNSET...BUT MOST STORMS ARE LIKELY TO REMAIN WEST OF TOWN. DRY
CONDITIONS FRIDAY WITH SOUTH WINDS BETWEEN 10-20KTS FROM ABOUT 17Z
TO 00Z.

FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST
CALIFORNIA...THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED INTO THIS EVENING ACROSS
INYO...CENTRAL NYE...LINCOLN AND CLARK COUNTIES. STRONGEST STORMS
EXPECTED TO REMAIN IN INYO COUNTY...BUT ANY STORM COULD PRODUCE
OUTFLOW WINDS UP TO 40KTS. CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE THIS
EVENING...BUT THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL AGAIN BE AROUND FRIDAY OVER
MAINLY INYO AND CENTRAL NYE COUNTIES. OUTSIDE OF ANY THUNDERSTORMS
SOUTH WINDS UP TO 25KTS INTO THIS EVENING THEN DECREASING TO AROUND
10KTS OVERNIGHT.
