The local office's own words before the first event, 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 the first event at Jul 6, 9:57 PM PST, 2 hours 3 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV 1057 PM PDT MON JUL 6 2015 .SYNOPSIS...LINGERING MOISTURE COMBINED WITH DAYTIME HEATING WILL TRIGGER SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE AREA THIS EVENING AND AGAIN TUESDAY. AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OFF THE CALIFORNIA COAST WILL GRADUALLY MOVE INLAND WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. THIS WILL BRING DRIER CONDITIONS TO THE AREA ALTHOUGH IT MAY SPARK A FEW SHOWERS ACROSS THE SIERRA AND MOUNTAINS OF SOUTHERN NEVADA ON THURSDAY AS THE SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH. MUCH COOLER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED WITH TEMPERATURES AVERAGING SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE WEEKEND. && .UPDATE...FIRST OFF, A FYI, OUR RADAR WILL BE DOWN THROUGH AT LEAST TOMORROW MORNING DUE TO A WEATHER-RELATED COMMUNICATIONS ISSUE. PLEASE USE THE ADJACENT WSR-88D RADARS AS WELL AS THE TERMINAL DOPPLER RADAR (TLAS) FROM MCCARRAN AIRPORT FOR ANY RADAR MONITORING. RADAR SHOWS A FEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DRIFTING EAST TOWARD THE SOUTH END OF THE LAS VEGAS VALLEY AND THESE MAY CROSS BETWEEN NOW AND 1 AM. GRIDS WERE UPDATED TO INCREASE POPS FOR THIS. THE ENVIRONMENT SHOULD BE RELATIVELY WORKED OVER FROM THE EARLIER CONVECTION THAT ROLLED THROUGH AND THUS SHOULD ACTIVITY SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO CRANK UP IN INTENSITY TOO MUCH. WE ARE ALREADY PASSED OUR LOW TEMP FOR TONIGHT AND THUS I ALSO TWEAKED LOW TEMPS DOWN FOR LAS VEGAS. DEWPOINTS WERE ALSO ADJUSTED UP IN MANY AREAS OVERNIGHT. ANOTHER ACTIVE DAY IS EXPECTED AGAIN FOR THE AREAS THAT REMAIN ALONG AND EAST OF THE MOIST-DRY INTERFACE. I WILL BE ANALYZING POPS AGAIN FOR THE MORNING PACKAGE. && .AVIATION...FOR MCCARRAN...A FEW SHRA MAY DRIFT ACROSS THE SOUTH END OF THE VALLEY THROUGH 08Z AND BRING GUSTY WINDS AND LOWER CIGS TO AREAS IN AND AROUND THE AIRPORT COMPLEX. OTHERWISE EXPECT WINDS TO FAVOR TYPICAL DIURNAL DIRECTIONAL TRENDS THE REST OF THE NIGHT AT 10 KTS OR LESS INTO TUESDAY MORNING. MAINLY SCT-BKN CLOUDS AOA 12K-18K FEET. CLOUDS SHOULD TRANSITION TO THE FEW-SCT RANGE BY DAYBREAK TUESDAY. ONCE AGAIN ON TUESDAY SHRA/TSRA ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP IN AND AROUND THE LAS VEGAS VALLEY AND IN THE APPROACH CORRIDORS MAINLY AFTER 20Z. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD DECREASE BETWEEN 03Z AND 05Z WEDNESDAY. STORM MOVEMENT WILL BE NORTHEAST TO EAST AND THUS ACTIVITY MAY MAKE IT INTO THE VALLEY ONCE AGAIN AND POTENTIALLY IMPACT THE AIRPORT COMPLEX ITSELF. FOR THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEVADA...NORTHWEST ARIZONA...AND SOUTHEAST CALIFORNIA...SHRA/TSRA IN AND AROUND THE AREA SHOULD DECREASE OVERNIGHT BUT STILL CAUSE GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS IN AND NEAR IT. OTHERWISE LOOM FOR TYPICAL DIURNAL WINDS OVERNIGHT AT 10 KTS OR LESS. SHRA/TSRA SHOULD DEVELOP BETWEEN 18Z AND 21Z TUESDAY AND DIMINISH BETWEEN 03Z AND 07Z WEDNESDAY WITH THE GREATEST ACTIVITY NORTH OF A LINE FROM KIYK-KLAS-KIGM. ONCE AGAIN GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS AND CIGS AND VSBY REDUCED TO MVFR OR LOWER ARE POSSIBLE IN AND NEAR SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY. OTHERWISE EXPECT WINDS FAVORING TYPICAL DIURNAL DIRECTIONAL TRENDS. GUSTS OF 20-25 KTS IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING IN THE OWENS VALLEY AND IN AND NEAR KDAG. && .PREVIOUS DISCUSSION... ISSUED AT 636 PM PDT MON JUL 6 2015 .UPDATE...MASSIVE THUNDERSTORM FIRED UP IN THE NORTHWEST PART OF LAS VEGAS WITH ANTHER STORM ALSO FIRING NEAR THE LAKES NEIGHBORHOOD. THIS ACTIVITY WAS ALL MOVING SOUTHEAST AND SHOULD SWEEP ACROSS THE REST OF THE VALLEY AND SOUTHERN CLARK COUNTY. AS A RESULT, POPS WERE INCREASED FOR CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN CLARK COUNTY FOR THE REST OF THIS EVENING. PLEASE FOLLOW OUR FACEBOOK AND TWITTER FEEDS FOR DETAILED UPDATES. && .PREVIOUS DISCUSSION... ISSUED AT 200 PM PDT MON JUL 6 2015 .SHORT TERM...THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT. DRIER AIR WILL BEGIN TO PUSH EAST ACROSS THE REGION TOMORROW THANKS TO AN APPROACHING PACIFIC LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. HOWEVER...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL BE SLOW TO PUSH EAST SO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE MAINLY ACROSS NORTHWEST ARIZONA...SOUTHERN NEVADA...AND EXTREME EASTERN CALIFORNIA. DRIER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE WESTERN MOJAVE DESERT WHERE CONDITIONS WILL BE MORE STABLE AND PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES DROP FROM DAYS PRIOR...BUT SOME ISOLATED ACTIVITY MAY STILL DEVELOP IN THE INYO COUNTY MOUNTAINS. BY WEDNESDAY...DRIER AND MORE STABLE AIR WILL INVADE THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA WITH MUCH CALMER CONDITIONS EXPECTED. SOME ISOLATED CONVECTION WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE SIERRA AND NORTHERN INYO COUNTY WHICH WILL BE IN CLOSER PROXIMITY TO THE APPROACHING LOW...BUT ELSEWHERE DRY CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL. .LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY. RATHER STRONG PACIFIC TROUGH WILL PUSH INTO THE REGION ON THURSDAY AND TAKE ON A SLIGHT NEGATIVE TILT AS IT DOES SO. MODELS HAVE TRENDED STRONGER AND FURTHER SOUTH WITH THIS SYSTEM THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS WHICH WILL MEAN COOLER TEMPERATURES...BREEZY CONDITIONS...AND SOMEWHAT BETTER CHANCES FOR SHOWERS ACROSS OUR INYO AND SOUTHERN NEVADA ZONES. TEMPERATURES THURSDAY WILL AVERAGE TEN DEGREES OR MORE BELOW NORMAL WITH SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE MAINLY ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS OF INYO COUNTY AND THE SOUTHERN GREAT BASIN...BUT A FEW SHOWERS MAY ALSO DEVELOP ACROSS THE SPRING AND SHEEP RANGE IN FAR SOUTHERN NEVADA. I HAVE INCREASED POPS INTO THE SLIGHT CHANCE CATEGORY FOR THE ABOVE MENTIONED AREAS...AND FUTURE SHIFTS CAN TWEAK THEM AS NECESSARY. THE TROUGH WILL LIFT NORTHEAST BY FRIDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE SLOWLY REBUILDING ACROSS THE FOUR CORNERS OVER THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB UPWARDS AGAIN AND MONSOON MOISTURE TO BEGIN SEEPING BACK INTO ARIZONA. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN A FEW DEGREES BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE WEEKEND BUT RETURN TO NEAR NORMAL BY MONDAY. && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO REPORT ANY SIGNIFICANT WEATHER CONDITIONS ACCORDING TO STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES. && UPDATE/AVIATION...STACHELSKI DISCUSSION...OUTLER FOR MORE FORECAST INFORMATION...SEE US ON OUR WEBPAGE: HTTP://WEATHER.GOV/LASVEGAS OR FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK AND TWITTER
