What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this winter storm 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 winter storm warning went out at Feb 26, 2:08 PM PST, 9 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 26, 2:08 PM PST, 9 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Las Vegas NV 208 PM PST Sun Feb 26 2023 .SYNOPSIS...The leading edge of another Pacific Storm will reach the southern Sierra tonight then bring gusty winds and limited snow to the mountains of southern Nevada as it moves across Monday and Monday night. The system will dive over southern Nevada and surrounding areas Wednesday bringing wintry weather to much of the region. Dry conditions and a warming trend will develop going into next weekend. && .SHORT TERM...through Wednesday night. The brief break in the weather between systems will be short lived as attention turns to a large cold circulation dropping out of the Gulf of Alaska and down the West Coast with the leading edge of the base of the trough moving inland over central California and the southern Sierra Monday then quickly traversing Nevada and Utah Monday night. Additional energy dives down the back side of the trough Tuesday through Wednesday causing it to undergo cyclogenesis and become a closed low while it dives over southern Nevada and surrounding areas Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday night. This will lead to snow and wind impacts for various areas and various time period through Wednesday night. With respect to snow: Initial impacts will begin over the southern Sierra tonight. However, the trajectory of the system and its associated moisture plume will result in the west slopes of the southern Sierra intercepting most of the snow while the crest shadows out the Owens Valley, Death Valley and much of southern Nevada. There will likely be sufficient spillover onto the upper east slopes of the southern Sierra tonight through Monday night for snow amounts of 6-12 inches between 7000 and 9000 feet and A Winter Storm Warning is now in effect for the east slopes to cover this. It also extends through Wednesday to cover the second round of snow with another several inches in the upper east slopes mainly Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday afternoon as the trailing edge of the aforementioned system dives down over southeast California. The Owens Valley will see a better potential for snow Tuesday night and Wednesday morning with about a 40 percent chance of 1-3 inches. Lincoln County will see the best potential for a combination of snow and wind impacts Monday afternoon through Monday night with 1-3 inches of snow accumulation and areas of winds gusting over 40 mph. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for that zone from 1 PM PDT Monday until 4 AM PDT Tuesday morning. The Spring Mountains only have about a 40 percent chance of seeing measurable snow Monday afternoon and evening, so confidence it too low for a winter weather headline. Snow will likely be widespread across southern Nevada and northwest Arizona Wednesday with snow levels dropping to 2500 feet or below by Wednesday afternoon as the cold core of the system dives directly over our forecast area. At least 6-12 inches of snow appear likely in the mountains of southern Nevada and northwest Arizona. Stay updated on the forecast as details are fine-tuned over the next couple days. With respect to wind: Southwest to west winds will pick up Monday afternoon through Monday night with the incoming leading edge of the system and widespread gusts over 40 mph are indicated by the latest high res models across much of northern San Bernardino County, southern Death Valley, southern Nevada and northern Mohave County. A Wind Advisory is in effect from 1 PM PST Monday afternoon until 4 AM PST Tuesday morning. A relative break in the wind will occur Tuesday followed by speeds ramping up again Tuesday night and Wednesday with widespread gusts over 40 mph accompanying the system as it barrels over our area. .LONG TERM...Thursday through Sunday. The medium range ensemble clusters indicate dry northwest or zonal flow developing over our area Thursday through Saturday followed by increasing southwest winds Sunday as a broad eastern Pacific trough swings inland. There may be some moisture moving into the southern Sierra and central Nevada mountains for a 20 percent chance of snow Saturday night and Sunday but the rest of the region should remain dry. A warming trend can be expected under this pattern with highs finally climbing back into the 60s across the Mojave Desert region next weekend. && .AVIATION...For Harry Reid...The remaining FEW-SCT mid-level clouds will clear out of the Valley this afternoon, leaving some passing high clouds. Winds remain out of the southwest through tonight, becoming gusty Monday morning. Speeds gradually increase through the day and into the evening on Monday. Mid to high level clouds will remain on Monday as well. For the rest of southern Nevada, northwest Arizona and southeast California... Southerly to southwesterly winds will continue through the rest of the day today. Winds generally remain out of the southwest, decreasing for most areas overnight. Winds will become gusty out of the southwest Monday and Monday night with peak gusts in the late evening. Low to mid level clouds will return through Monday as well for most areas except southern Nevada and the Colorado River Valley. && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...Spotters are encouraged to report any significant weather or impacts according to standard operating procedures. && SHORT TERM/LONG TERM...Adair AVIATION...Meltzer For more forecast information...see us on our webpage: https://weather.gov/lasvegas or follow us on Facebook and Twitter
