Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Las Vegas NV 121 PM PDT Sun Jun 23 2024 .SYNOPSIS...Hotter than normal temperatures will continue through at least the middle of next week. Isolated showers and thunderstorms will be possible this afternoon and evening for eastern Lincoln County and areas south and east of the I-15 corridor. The anomalous moisture responsible for today's showers and thunderstorms will gradually be pushed out of the area throughout the week, which will result in gradually decreasing coverage when it comes to precipitation chances. && .SHORT TERM...through Tuesday. Anomalous moisture combined with strong daytime heating will bring the first taste of the monsoon to portions of our forecast are this afternoon. Isolated showers and thunderstorms are expected across Mohave County this afternoon and evening as well as portions of Clark, Lincoln, and San Bernardino Counties. Convection will favor areas of higher terrain for development with the potential for isolated instances of flash flooding should thunderstorms remain anchored to the terrain with continued redevelopment. Moderate to heavy rain and flash flooding are not the only threats with today's storms. Relatively dry air near the surface will provide a favorable environment for strong gusty outflow winds with any convection that does develop. Additionally, lightning will pose a threat to those without adequate shelter in the vicinity of any thunderstorms that develop. Given that heating is the driver of today's convection, showers and thunderstorms will begin to slowly dissipate after sunset this evening. Another round of monsoonal convection will be possible tomorrow afternoon and evening for Mohave County and southern San Bernardino County as anomalous moisture remains in place overhead. The Eastern Sierra and Spring Mountains will see a 15 to 20% chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms as this moisture attempts to push further north before it gradually retreats back towards the east. As this moisture begins to retreat, so will precipitation chances. By Tuesday afternoon precipitation chances will be limited to the eastern portions of Mohave County. The aforementioned strong daytime heating partially responsible for this first taste of the monsoon will also be responsible for hotter than normal temperatures continuing through the middle of the week. Afternoon temperatures will top out around 5 to 8 degrees above normal for the next few days with overnight low temperatures up to 10 degrees warmer than normal. .LONG TERM...Wednesday through next weekend. By mid-week, a trough is forecast to move into the PacNW and begin to flatten the ridge over the Rockies. As this occurs, flow aloft transitions from southerly to southwesterly, resulting in the advection of drier air into our CWA. However, moisture doesn't really get scoured out until Thursday, leaving overlap on Wednesday of the monsoonal moisture and subtle cooling/jet dynamics from the PacNW shortwave. This overlap may be enough to provide the most widespread convection within this first taste of the monsoon. Latest EPS and GEFS highlight southern Nevada and northwest Arizona, along with the Sierra and White Mountains, with 30-80% PoPs on Wednesday. Ensemble mean PWATs on Wednesday range from 0.75" in our northwestern areas to 1.50" in the lower Colorado River Valley. These values, roughly 200% of normal, should support this potential for greater convective coverage. && .AVIATION...For Harry Reid...Winds will be primarily from the south today with gusts of 15 to 20 knots in the afternoon. There is a low, but not zero, chance of thunderstorm outflow winds from the south or east affecting the terminal this evening. If this does not occur, typical south southwest winds are expected overnight. Similar conditions are expected Monday. For the rest of southern Nevada, northwest Arizona and southeast California...Southerly winds gusting 15 to 25 knots are expected over areas northwest of Interstate 15 this afternoon, weakening overnight. Southeast of Interstate 15, scattered thunderstorms are expected, likely producing outflows which will disrupt the winds and possibly causing poor visibility in blowing dust. These storms will also produce isolated ceilings below 8000 feet with associated terrain obscuration. Slightly less thunderstorm coverage is expected Monday, with similar conditions otherwise. && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...Spotters are encouraged to report any significant weather or impacts according to standard operating procedures. && SHORT TERM...Stessman LONG TERM...Woods AVIATION...Morgan For more forecast information...see us on our webpage: https://weather.gov/lasvegas or follow us on Facebook and Twitter
