Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Elko NV
319 AM PDT Thu Apr 12 2018

.SYNOPSIS...Strong winds, rain, snow, and clouds will be occurring
across much of northern and central Nevada through the day.
Isolated showers are possible tonight with breezy to windy
conditions continuing. High pressure will build in Friday night
through the weekend with warming temperatures. Another weather
system is set to impact northern and central Nevada Monday into
Tuesday with wind, rain, and snow.

&&

.SHORT TERM...Today through Saturday. Radar is starting to fill
this morning especially in the eastern part of the forecast area.
Also, winds have been strong at many locations with peak wind
speeds of 30 to 45 mph. As such, decided to move the start time of
the wind products to current time and also issued an advisory for
Humboldt county.

Everything appears on track with the current storm system and
other than the wind products, have kept the winter weather
advisories intact. The upper level system will progress during the
day with strong winds and much cooler temperatures. Highs this
afternoon are only expected to make it into the 30s and 40s. Snow
amounts will generally range from a trace to perhaps one to three
inches in the valleys near the border with Idaho. Some shower
activity will continue into tonight as a northwest flow and
moisture move over the area. Very limited accumulations, if any,
are expected in the northern valleys. Overnight lows will be in
the 20s.

By Friday, the flow will be out of the north with upper level
ridging trying to build over the area. Skies will be partly sunny
with some clouds from time to time. Highs for the afternoon will
be in the upper 40s to mid 50s. Northwest winds will be breezy to
windy in the central and east. Wind speeds are expected to remain
below advisory criteria. Clear conditions will be prevalent during
the overnight period with lows in the 20s and 30s.

The ridge will flatten on Saturday but it should be quiet and
calm. Winds will be on the light side with the flow changing to
the west. This will result in warmer highs with readings in the
upper 50s to mid 60s.

.LONG TERM...Saturday night through next Wednesday.

Models remain in very good agreement through the long term period
and the flow continues to be progressive.

The long term starts with southwest flow ahead of the next
system. Its looks to be another windy day on Sunday and the warm
air advection raises the temperatures into the 60's and lower
70's. Models are slowing the cold front's arrival and are now
moving it through on Monday during the day rather than Sunday
night, which will limit valley snow accumulations. The strongest
winds from this system appear at this time to be in eastern Nevada
on Monday afternoon just ahead of the cold front, where High Wind
Warnings may be warranted. This will be dependent on whether the
models hold to this time frame for the cold front passage in
future model runs.

Snow showers will decrease in coverage Monday night and by
Tuesday will mainly be confined to the higher elevations of Elko
County. Snowfall totals at this early juncture look to be around
an inch or less in valleys and 2 to 4 inches in the higher
elevations of Elko County.

Temperatures will drop below normal Monday night through Tuesday
only to warm again on Wednesday to near normal as southwest flow
returns ahead of yet another system.

&&

.AVIATION...A few snow showers possible KEKO, KWMC, and KELY,
mainly this morning, accompanied by MVFR conditions with a very
low chance of tempo IFR. Main story is the strong winds for all
stations today. West to northwest to 35 knots gusting to around 45
knots at times and continuing well into the evening. Slight chance
for a thunderstorm in the vicinity of KEKO & KWMC this afternoon,
but too low of a chance to include in the TAFs.
