Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Elko NV
318 PM PDT Wed Apr 3 2024

.SYNOPSIS...An approaching storm system will bring rain and
isolated thunderstorms to NW Nevada this evening. Tonight into
Thursday shower activity expands across all of northern and
central NV. Snow levels lower to valley floors by Thursday
evening with showers continuing across the region through Friday
afternoon. Showers taper off across central NV Friday night, but
linger across NE Nevada through Saturday afternoon. Winds will be
breezy to windy Thursday through Saturday.

&&

.SHORT TERM...Tonight through Thursday night.

Valley rain showers and mountain snow showers continue to creep
into the forecast area from the northwest tonight as a deep upper
low and attendant robust cold front move into the western U.S. and
forecast area. Snow levels begin to lower from the west overnight
with levels beginning to reach the valleys Thursday morning. No
significant valley snowfall accumulations expected tonight. Liquid
accumulations due to rain will be generally light and less than
0.10” for the valleys. Isolated thunderstorms remain possible in
northern Nevada tonight also as instability along the frontal
boundary provides ample forcing. Breezy south/southwest winds
overnight. Overnight low temperatures will be in the low 30s to
low 40s.

Cold front continues to slowly move east into the forecast area
Thursday and Thursday night. South/southwest winds ahead of the
front will be very strong with speeds across central Nevada of 30
to 40 mph, gusting to 60 mph. A high wind warning has been issued
for southern Lander/Eureka, White Pine, and N. Nye counties as
well as the Ruby Mtns/E Humboldt Range for Thursday and Thursday
night. Snow levels continue to lower Thursday with valley rain
transitioning to valley snow thru Thursday evening. Valley snow
totals of a trace to 4 inches expected Thursday evening and
Thursday night for the western half of the forecast area. Of note,
high wind warnings in NW Nye and S. Lander/Eureka Counties
transition to a winter weather Advisory Thursday night with winter
weather advisories also in place for most of northern Nevada.
Isolated thunderstorms will again be possible along the front
Thursday. Graupel and lightning will be associated with any
storms. Winds remain strong Thursday night. Daytime high
temperatures Thursday in the low 50s to low 60s, in the 40s post
frontal. Overnight lows will be in the 20s and 30s.

&&

.LONG TERM...Friday through next Tuesday.

Upper level low over NV on Friday with breezy westerly winds and
snow showers across the region. Noticeably cooler on Friday with
afternoon highs in the upper 30s to low 40s, which will be 10 to
20 degrees cooler than Thursday afternoon highs. Snow showers
taper off near and south of the Highway 50 corridor Friday
evening and night. However, snow showers continue across
northeastern NV Friday evening through Saturday afternoon during
which time snow and blowing snow may be an issue, especially
across summits and mountains of Elko county.

Saturday evening snow showers taper off across most of NE Nevada.
A few degrees warmer on Sunday, however a second and much weaker
system will drop in from the NW bringing a 25% chance of showers
to most of northern and portions of central NV. Sunday night into
Monday this second disturbance will begin to exit the CWA to the
SE although there will still be a 15% chance of snow showers to
the mountains of east-central NV. Otherwise dry Monday and Tuesday
as high pressure begins to build in from the West.

&&

.AVIATION...Scattered showers and isolated TS this evening and
overnight across much of northern NV, including KWMC and KBAM,
and possibly as far east as KEKO. Shower activity expands across
the region on Thursday with rain showers at all terminals.
Significant increase to winds on Thursday, strongest at KELY and
KTPH where BLDU will be possible, which may result in reduced
VIS. Thursday evening and night valley rains change over to snow,
with MVFR or lower conditions likely at all terminals.
