WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW: CLEAR SKIES AND DRY CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD DUE TO A COMBINATION OF ZONAL
FLOW TRANSITIONING TO UPPER LEVEL RIDGING. DAYTIME TEMPERATURES
WILL BE IN THE MID 80S THROUGH THE WEEKEND, AFTER WHICH THE RIDGE
TAKES OVER AND TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO CLIMB TO THE MID 90S
FOR THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK. OVERNIGHT LOWS TONIGHT WILL BE IN
THE 40S, WITH A FEW OF THE USUAL COLD SPOTS IN ELKO COUNTY
DROPPING INTO THE 30S. LOW TEMPERATURES WILL ALSO BE IMPACTED BY
THE RIDGE, WITH OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES RISING INTO THE UPPER 40S
BY FRIDAY NIGHT AND INTO THE 50S BY MONDAY NIGHT. TYPICAL
AFTERNOON BREEZES WILL BE PRESENT THROUGH MONDAY, WITH SLIGHTLY
STRONGER WINDS SHAPING UP FOR ELKO COUNTY ON TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY.
FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS: HIGH CONFIDENCE FOR DRY AND
WARMING CONDITIONS THROUGH THE END OF THE FORECAST. NO CHANGES
WERE MADE TO BASE NBM OUTPUT.
AVIATION
VFR CONDITIONS AND LIGHT WINDS EXPECTED THROUGH THE
NEXT 24 HOURS.
FIRE WEATHER
QUIET WEATHER THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD WILL
PREVENT FIRE CONCERNS FROM THUNDER OR WIND. ELEVATED TEMPERATURES
AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL BE THE BIGGEST FIRE WEATHER FACTOR DURING
THIS TIME, WITH TEMPERATURES REACHING THE MID 90S FOR THE FIRST
HALF OF NEXT WEEK WITH WIDESPREAD MIN RH VALUES AS LOW AS 5%
DURING THAT PERIOD.
