BRING INCREASING WINDS AND PRECIPITATION CHANCES AS WELL AS
COOLER TEMPERATURES TO THE AREA.

ZONAL FLOW WILL TRANSITION TO RIDGING OVER THE REGION THROUGH EARLY
NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL RESULT IN DRY CONDITIONS AND ABOVE-NORMAL
TEMPERATURES. AS THE RIDGE BUILDS, THE COLORADO RIVER VALLEY WILL
SIT IN AN AREA OF SLIGHTLY ENHANCED NORTHERLY FLOW. PROBABILITIES
FOR IMPACTFUL WINDS REMAIN LOW OUTSIDE OF THE TYPICAL BREEZY SPOTS
LIKE LAUGHLIN. OVERALL, IMPACTS SHOULD BE LOW, BUT ANY BOATERS
SHOULD BE AWARE OF NORTHERLY AFTERNOON BREEZES. ELSEWHERE, WINDS
WILL REMAIN LIGHT.
BY MID TO LATE NEXT WEEK, MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGESTS A PATTERN SHIFT
TOWARDS COOLER AND WETTER CONDITIONS WITH INCREASING WINDS, BUT
UNCERTAINTY AT THIS RANGE REMAINS HIGH. FROM THE PREVIOUS FORECAST
AND MODEL RUNS, THE INCOMING TROUGH LOOKS SLOWER THAN BEFORE, BUT
STAY TUNED.
