* IT'S A PLEASANT WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES,
WARM TEMPERATURES, AND OVERALL LIGHT WINDS. LOOKING AT THE
LARGER SCALE PATTERN, WE ARE UNDER A LIGHT NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT
WITH AN EXITING TROUGH TO OUR EAST AND A RIDGE IN THE EASTERN
PACIFIC.
* LOOKING AT THE EVOLUTION OF THE SYNOPTIC PATTERN THROUGH EARLY
NEXT WEEK, THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE IN THE EASTERN PACIFIC WILL
STRENGTHEN AND SLOWLY SHIFT OVER THE WESTERN US. THIS WILL ALLOW
FOR TEMPERATURES TO INCREASE EACH DAY, EVENTUALLY TO AROUND 10
TO 15 DEGREES ABOVE AVERAGE BY FRIDAY. DAILY HIGH TEMPERATURES
FROM FRIDAY TO AT LEAST TUESDAY ARE CURRENTLY FORECAST TO BE IN
THE LOW TO MID-90S FOR NE CA AND W NV VALLEYS AND IN THE LOW TO
MID-80S FOR THE SIERRA COMMUNITIES. WITH THESE VERY WARM
TEMPERATURES, THE LATEST NWS HEATRISK PRODUCT SHOWS WIDESPREAD
MINOR TO MODERATE HEATRISK, ESPECIALLY IN THE VALLEYS ON FRIDAY
THROUGH TUESDAY. BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK, ENSEMBLES SHOW A
POSSIBLE BREAK DOWN OF THE UPPER RIDGE. BUT, UNCERTAINTY REMAINS
IN WHETHER WE RETURN TO A TROUGH OR ZONAL PATTERN. AT THE
