What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this high wind warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Elko, NV wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high wind warning went out at Jun 16, 3:57 AM PDT, 6 hours 38 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 16, 3:57 AM PDT, 6 hours 38 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Elko NV
357 AM PDT Thu Jun 16 2022

.SYNOPSIS...Mostly sunny and dry today. Expect much warmer
temperatures this afternoon with most valley locations warming
into the 90s. Winds will be gusty late this morning and through
the early evening hours, with blowing dust possible.

&&

.SHORT TERM...Today through Friday. As an upper level low just
off the Oregon and northern CA coast gradually advances onshore,
southwesterly flow over NV will increase bringing much warmer
temperatures and gusty winds to most of the CWA.

Strongest winds are expected on Friday, especially across central
and northeastern NV. Confidence is increasing with respect to
High Wind Warning conditions Friday afternoon across the Ruby Mts,
Southern Eureka County, Northern Nye County, as well as White
Pine County where gusts of 58 mph or higher are looking favorable.
The remainder of Central and Eastern Elko County, along with most
of Lander County and Northern Eureka County will be gusty on
Friday too, however at this time Advisory level winds look more
likely in these areas as gusts should mostly be below 58 mph. For
now however left the High Wind Watch in effect for all of the
aforementioned areas.

Dry conditions are expected across the CWA through Friday.
Temperatures are expected to be the warmest of the week today,
with most valley locations reaching up into the 90s. As the trough
approaches from the west on Friday, cooler air will begin to move
in over NV. Humboldt County will cool into the 70s on Friday,
with 80s for highs across most of the rest of the CWA, with the
exception of a few 90s near the Utah border on Friday.

.LONG TERM...Friday night through next Wednesday. An unusually
strong upper level low pressure system will be making its way
eastward. Breezy to windy conditions will again redevelop on
Saturday with the strongest winds forecast across White Pine and
northeast Nye counties. A wind advisory is likely for these
locations. In addition, there is the potential for more blowing
dust across the eastern half of the forecast area. Isolated
showers are possible along the border with Idaho and Oregon, but
these will produce little in the way of accumulation. Highs will
be in the 70s and 80s. Isolated to scattered rain showers are
expected to be on the increase during the overnight, with activity
reaching the US Highway 50 corridor. Accumulations are expected to
be light at most locations at less than 0.05 inches, though some
of the mountain areas in the north could see 0.10-0.15 inches of
rainfall. Overnight lows will be in the 30s and 40s.

On Sunday, the upper trough axis will pass through the area. Some
cooler air aloft will lead to isolated thunderstorms. These appear
favorable along and north of the I-80 corridor for the afternoon
period. Winds will be breezy but gusts should remain less than 30
mph. Highs will be much cooler with readings in the 60s to around
70. The system will take its time lifting northward Sunday night
with showers expected to slowly diminish in aerial coverage.
Overnight lows will be in the 30s and 40s. Will need to continue
watching to see if a frost advisory may be needed for central
Nevada for Monday morning.

Monday through Wednesday, quiet weather is expected with afternoon
highs warming into the 70s on Monday, climbing into the 80s and
90s on Tuesday and Wednesday. Overnight lows will be in the 40s
and 50s. Afternoon breezes are possible but gusts should be less
than 25 mph.

&&

.AVIATION...Mostly sunny and dry with VFR conditions expected at
all TAF sites today. Gusty winds today of 20 to 35kts may result
in blowing dust across the region. Stronger winds on Friday will
likely result in blowing dust across portions of northern and
central NV, which could reduce visibilities.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...Dry today and Friday across all zones. Main
concerns each day will be gusty winds and low RH, along with well
above normal temperatures in the 90s today, then slightly cooler
on Friday. Red Flag Warnings remain in effect today and on Friday
across central NV zones 425, 426, and 427, which are the only
zones in which fuels are considered cured. Northern NV zones where
fuels are not yet cured will also see hot dry and windy
conditions today and Friday. Strongest winds this week will be on
Friday across central NV zones as well as most of zones 469 and
470.

The Fire Weather Watch for Saturday remains in effect for zones
425, 426 and 427 with increasing confidence that winds and RH will
again reach critical levels.
