YESTERDAY, REACHING RIGHT AROUND AVERAGE FOR EARLY JULY WITH LOWER
90S FOR W.NEVADA VALLEYS AND LOWER 80S FOR SIERRA COMMUNITIES.

PORTIONS OF E.ALPINE AND N.MONO COUNTIES.

OF E.SIERRA AND NEAR THE SOUTHERN OREGON BORDER.
OTHERWISE DRY, WARM, AND BREEZY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH
MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. WE COULD SEE A BUMP IN OUR WINDS MID-WEEK AS
A CLOSED LOW OFF THE COAST BEGINS TO PUSH INLAND. CURRENTLY
KEEPING AN EYE ON WEDNESDAY FOR ELEVATED TO LOCALLY CRITICAL FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR PORTIONS OF WESTERN NEVADA DUE TO GUSTY
