Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Las Vegas NV 203 PM PDT Fri Nov 1 2024 .SYNOPSIS...The next weather system drops into the western United States over the weekend, bringing increased winds, chances for rain showers, and light mountain snowfall to the area. After a brief break, another low pressure system will move through the area on Wednesday and Thursday. && .SHORT TERM...through Sunday. Satellite imagery shows a band of mid-to-high clouds drifting southeast through Inyo County and the southern Great Basin. These clouds will continue to work their way southeast through southern Nevada, southeastern California, and northwestern Arizona throughout the day. Outside of these clouds, weather will be relatively uneventful today with temperatures a few degrees cooler than normal. A low pressure system will move through the Desert Southwest over the weekend bringing gusty northerly winds and increased precipitation chances for portions of the area. Lincoln and Mohave counties have the best chances at seeing precipitation, with a 30 to 50% chance of precipitation late Saturday night into Sunday. While we will see a relative increase in moisture, the drier insider slider trajectory of this system means that what precipitation we do get is expected to be on the lighter side. The panhandle of Lincoln County and the higher terrain of Mohave, where precipitation chances are the greatest, will likely see up to 0.25" of QPF, with a "worst case" scenario of 0.50" to 0.75". The Spring Mountains will find themselves in a similar situation. However, there is a higher probability of not having any precipitation than the higher terrain of Mohave County and the panhandle of Lincoln County. Elsewhere, across the lower elevations and valleys of southern Nevada, northwestern Arizona, and southeastern/east central California, the "worst case" scenario when it comes to precipitation is 0.01" to 0.10", which would result in slippery wet roads and ruined car washes. This system will also bring a reinforcing shot of cooler air to the region, which will allow these cooler than normal temperatures to stick around through the end of next week. These colder temperatures also mean falling snow levels. Snow levels will go from 6 to 7 kft on Saturday to 5 to 6 kft on Sunday. However, due to the lack of sufficient moisture, impactful snow accumulations are not expected. In the Spring Mountains, Kyle and Lee Canyons will likely see somewhere between 0.1" and 3.0" of snow with locally higher amounts in the peaks of the mountains. The "worst case" for Kyle and Lee Canyons is 4" to 5" of snow. In the Eastern Sierra, 1" to 3" of snow is likely between 7 kft and 9.5 kft, with a worst case scenario of up to 4" of snow. Locally higher snow totals are expected above 9,500 feet in the Eastern Sierra. In addition to a slight increase in precipitation chances and cooler temperatures, this low pressure system will also be accompanied by increasing winds. Westerly winds will pick up across the Mojave Desert on Saturday ahead of the trough axis. The strongest of these winds are expected in western San Bernardino County, with gusts peak wind gusts in the 30 to 40 mph range. Isolated 40+ mph wind gusts will be possible in the higher terrain of San Bernardino County, but are not widespread enough to warrant the issuance of a wind advisory. The post frontal northwesterly winds will pack a bit more of a punch on Sunday than the prefrontal southwesterly winds that preceded them. Esmeralda County, Nye County, the Colorado River Valley, and eastern San Bernardino County are all looking at between a 60% to 75% chance of wind gusts of 40 mph or greater from Sunday into early Monday morning. .LONG TERM...Monday through Thursday. By Monday, the low pressure system should be over the southern end of the Rockies. However, north-south surface pressure and temperature gradients should still be in place, along with northerly flow aloft on the back side of the low. All these factors point toward strong northerly winds continuing, and MOS guidance suggests that north winds in the Colorado River Valley could be stronger on Monday than on Sunday. Meanwhile, the next low should be entering British Columbia and/or the Pacific Northwest. Models are split on how to handle this second low through Wednesday and Thursday, with about half of the ensemble members showing a more progressive open trough zipping eastward with high pressure building in from the Pacific behind it, while the other half show the low closing off and peeling southward toward our area. If the first solution is closer to reality, winds would settle down and temperatures would start to rise. If the second solution verifies, another round of strong northerly winds would be likely, and temperatures would decrease again. The forecast falls in between these two extremes, and model trends will be important. && .AVIATION...For Harry Reid...Light winds generally less than 7 knots will occur today through Saturday with easterly components late morning and afternoon and southwest this evening and overnight. BKN- OVC clouds 15-20 kft this evening through early Saturday morning ahead of a weather system dropping into Southern Nevada Saturday night and Sunday bringing north winds gusting at least 25-30 knots by Sunday afternoon. For the rest of southern Nevada, northwest Arizona and southeast California...Winds less than 10 knots can be expected across the region today through Saturday for most areas. The exception will be around KDAG after 14z Saturday where west winds gusting 20-25 knots are expected. BKN-OVC clouds 15-20 kft will spread across the region this afternoon through Saturday morning ahead of a weather system dropping down from the Pacific Northwest. This will bring widespread northwest or north winds gusting 25-35 knots to the region Sunday. && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...Spotters are encouraged to report any significant weather or impacts according to standard operating procedures. && SHORT TERM...Stessman LONG TERM...Morgan AVIATION...Gorelow For more forecast information...see us on our webpage: https://weather.gov/lasvegas or follow us on Facebook and Twitter
