What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this red flag warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Las Vegas, NV wrote its last area forecast discussion before this red flag warning went out at May 5, 8:23 PM PDT, 6 hours 39 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 5, 8:23 PM PDT, 6 hours 39 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Las Vegas NV 823 PM PDT Thu May 5 2022 .SYNOPSIS...Above normal temperatures and breezy afternoons can be expected into Saturday. By Sunday, a dry low-pressure system moving into the western states will bring widespread strong winds to the region, and will result in cooler temperatures for the first part of next week. && .UPDATE...8 pm surface observations show area of stronger gusts around 35 mph localized to the western Mojave Desert. Elsewhere, gusts have started to subside with several sites across southern Nevada and northwest Arizona reporting gusts up to 25 mph. Breezy/windy conditions will persist through the Mother's Day Weekend. Model simulations consistent through Saturday showing series of fast moving impulses passing by to our north. Model depictions still agree on the evolution of an unseasonably deep trough across the Great Basin next week. However, there remains some run-to-run timing differences when exactly the trough axis clears southern Nevada. As trough sharpens, most impactful day from the wind still looks like Sunday. Widespread critical fire weather conditions expected along with our typical impacts from blowing dust/sand and dangerous crosswinds for high-profile vehicles along Highway 395 in Inyo County. No update needed at this time. && .SHORT TERM...Today through Friday. Breezy afternoons will continue over the next few days as a series of shortwaves pass north of the region. South-southwest winds will increase this afternoon with the strongest winds expected over western San Bernardino County and through the Owens Valley where a few gusts to 40 mph are possible in favored locations. Winds will decrease overnight into Friday morning only to increase once again Friday afternoon as a second shortwave passes north of the area. This system looks to move a bit further south than the first one resulting in slightly higher wind speeds. Once again the highest winds look to be in western San Bernardino County and the Owens valley, except a few gusts to 45mph will be possible. Temperatures will be the other main concern in the short term as readings climb to above normal levels. Friday still looks to be the warmest day with highs ranging from the mid-90s in the Las Vegas metro area to near 100 at Lake Havasu and Laughlin to near 105 in Death Valley. These temperatures will lead to moderate Heat Risk, which means there is a moderate risk of heat-related illnesses for those who are sensitive to heat, especially those without effective cooling and/or adequate hydration. The good news is that this warm period will be short-lived as a significant cooling trend is on tap for early next week. .LONG TERM...Saturday through the middle of next week. A deep trough will settle over the Western States over the weekend with a trend towards increasingly windy conditions across the Mojave Desert. Gusty conditions on Saturday will be strongest across the Western Mojave Desert and lee of the Sierra, though it'll be blustery in the afternoon most everywhere. Stronger winds kick in on Sunday as troughing in the PacNW sinks southward and a tight pressure gradient sets up across the Great Basin. Widespread wind headlines are likely for Sunday, with the possibility of high wind conditions in some locations. Given that it's Mothers Day weekend and many people may have outdoor plans, keep an eye on the forecast as the wind speeds could have significant implications on outdoor activities. In addition to the strong winds, widespread blowing dust is likely as well. Significantly cooler air will invade the region Monday and linger into the middle of next week as a series of weak shortwaves reload the trough as it settles across near California and the Great Basin. Breezy conditions can be expected as well each day, along with slight chances for shower activity across the Southern Great Basin and Sierra. Elsewhere dry conditions are likely to continue. && .FIRE WEATHER...Elevated fire concerns exist areawide each afternoon today through Saturday with gusts 25-35 mph, above normal temperatures and minimum relative humidities in the single digits. Critical conditions are anticipated across Mohave County on Saturday and areawide by Sunday with widespread gusty southwest winds in excess of 40 mph with very dry fuels and single-digit relative humidities. Given expected adverse conditions over the next several days, a Fire Weather Watch has been issued for Mohave County, AZ on Saturday, and area wide on Sunday. && .AVIATION...For Harry Reid...Gusty southwest winds will increase this afternoon with the highest gusts around 25kts expected between 21-02Z. The winds should decrease some after sunset, but conditions will remain breezy into the overnight period. Towards morning the gradient should relax enough to allow winds to drop below 10kts. There is good agreement in the models that winds will turn to the northwest and 10kts or less for a period tomorrow morning, but gusty southwest winds will return Friday afternoon and evening at levels similar to what is expected this afternoon. High clouds will move across the terminal this afternoon into tonight, but no operational impacts are expected. For the rest of southern Nevada, northwest Arizona and southeast California...Afternoon breezes are forecast at most sites over the next two days. KDAG will see the strongest winds with gusty westerly winds developing late this afternoon and persisting into Friday afternoon. At KBIH, westerly downslope winds are expected this afternoon before turning back to the north during the evening. Similar westerly winds are possible again on Saturday. For the Colorado River Valley sites, a few southerly gusts to 20kts are possible this afternoon at KIFP. Otherwise, south to southwest winds at 12kts or less are expected into Friday morning at KIFP and KEED. && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...Spotters are encouraged to report any significant weather or impacts according to standard operating procedures. && UPDATE...Pierce SHORT TERM/FIRE WEATHER...Planz LONG TERM...Outler AVIATION...Planz For more forecast information...see us on our webpage: https://weather.gov/lasvegas or follow us on Facebook and Twitter
