Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Las Vegas NV
333 AM PST Thu Nov 5 2020

.SYNOPSIS...Pleasant fall weather will continue through Friday
before a cold storm system brings a dramatic drop in temperatures
and increasing chances for rain and snow over the weekend. Strong
and gusty winds will develop on Friday. Temperatures are expected to
remain well below normal through the middle of next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Through Wednesday.

Today...Do expect to see some high clouds increase from the
southwest throughout the day. Although, don't believe they will have
much impact on our temperatures from reaching record levels. No
significant winds expected.

Friday-Sunday...Can't believe how similar the GEFS and ECMWF Ensemble
synoptic pattern is through the weekend. The first deep low that
will impact the region will mostly be a wind producer for Friday-
Friday night. Models have continued to slightly slow the
southeastward progression of the low into northern California late
Friday afternoon. Great Basin surface pressure falls and downward
momentum of winds aloft suggest strongest winds will be across parts
of Inyo, Esmeralda, Nye, Lincoln Counties as well as the Spring
Mountains and Sheep Range. Will be issuing a Wind Advisory for those
areas with this package. Looks breezy-windy elsewhere but right now
anticipate winds staying below criteria. Also, did not expand the
Red Flag Warning. This first trough is slated to swing across the
southern Great Basin and Mojave Desert Saturday ushering in much
colder temperatures, breezy conditions and mostly light
precipitation. With snow levels lowering some of the precipitation
will accumulate as snow between 4000-5000 feet. Second, intense lobe
of vorticity will pivot across the region Sunday-Sunday Night. Some
of the guidance suggests that this system may have a better tap of
moisture, especially across the Colorado River Valley, eastern Clark
and Lincoln Counties then east across western Arizona. Strong
forcing, cold air and this moisture tap could lead to greater
precipitation and eventual impacts from accumulating snows. Again,
the heaviest accumulations would likely be above 5000 feet with
lighter accumulations down to 4000 feet. Too early to consider
any winter weather headlines.

Monday-Wednesday...Some light precipitation could linger into Monday
across northwest Arizona as the trough slowly exits the region.
Pattern remains progressive, active as ensembles show a weaker
trough across the Great Basin on Veterans Day. Bottom line,
temperatures will remain cool next week.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...Red Flag Warning remains in effect. Strongest belt
of winds looks to reside over Inyo, Esmeralda and Nye Counties
Friday. The eastern Sierra Slopes and Spring Mountains could see
periods of downslope winds which could produce locally stronger
winds. Humidity levels are expected to fall below critical
thresholds in the mid to lower elevations while remaining above
thresholds in the higher elevations. Also, the lack of precipitation
over the past 6 months has kept fuels at critical levels in all our
zones as ERC values are well above normal for early November.

&&

.AVIATION...For McCarran...Typical wind pattern is expected to
remain through Thursday, generally remaining below 10 knots. South
to southwest winds will begin to increase Friday morning in response
to an approaching weather system. Winds are expected to peak Friday
afternoon-evening with gusts to around 20-25 knots. Clear skies will
give way by the late afternoon today as mid to high level moisture
moves across the region from the southwest. By 03Z Friday, expect
SCT to BKN aoa 20 Kft and some FEW aoa 12-15 Kft.

For the rest of southern Nevada, northwest Arizona and southeast
California...Typical wind patterns are expected at most terminals
today. Though, some north winds are expected down the Colorado River
Valley with winds 10-12 knots and occasional gusts to 15-20 knots,
especially near KIFP. Elsewhere, winds should remain below 10 knots
through tonight. Westerly winds are expected to increase across the
southern Sierra later tonight but are not expected to reach KBIH.
Clear skies will give way by the late afternoon today as mid to high
level moisture moves across the region from the southwest, generally
remaining aoa 15 Kft. South to southwest winds are expected to
increase area-wide late morning Friday.

&&

.CLIMATE...High temperatures will approach records again today
and in a few locations on Friday. The table below shows
the record high temperature for each location and the year the
record was last set, followed by the forecast for each day.
