METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS (FRI AM - THU AM)
A STRONG AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS OVER THE FOUR CORNERS
RESULTING IN WIDESPREAD ABOVE NORMAL CONDITIONS ACROSS THE REGION.
THIS WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE MAIN DRIVER OF THE WEATHER THROUGH AT

AT +5 TO +15 DEG F. IN ADDITION TO CONTINUED HEAT, THE RIDGE OVER
THE FOUR CORNERS IS FORECAST TO ROTATE MID LEVEL MOISTURE AND
INSTABILITY OVER PARTS OF CA/NV THROUGH AT LEAST EARLY NEXT WEEK.
THIS WILL RESULT IN AREAS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. BEST CHANCES
ARE ACROSS THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN SIERRA, SE CA, AND SOUTHERN NV.
LOW PRESSURE OVER THE GULF OF ALASKA MAY GENERATE SOME WEAK
TROUGHING OFFSHORE OFF THE PACNW AND NRN CA COASTS EARLY NEXT WEEK
AS WELL, FINALLY ALLOWING FOR SOME MODERATION OF THESE AFTERNOON
HIGH TEMPERATURES. 500 MB HEIGHT CLUSTERS STILL FAVOR HIGH PRESSURE
SURROUNDING THAT AREA OF TROUGHING THROUGH MID WEEK BEFORE POSITIVE
ANOMALIES EASE AND SOME TROUGHING TAKES HOLD AT THE END OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD.
FREEZING LEVELS REMAIN HIGH AS WELL AT OVER 16 KFT. THIS WILL HOLD
TRUE THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK BEFORE SOME DECREASE DOWN TO ABOUT 15-
16 KFT OR SO INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY.
