..FAR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA AND SOUTHERN OREGON
STRENGTHENING MID-LEVEL FLOW AND ASSOCIATED WEAK ASCENT WITH A
CLOSED LOW OFF THE COAST OF NORTHERN CA COMBINED WITH DAYTIME
BOUNDARY LAYER DESTABILIZATION WILL PROVIDE FOR SOME ISOLATED
CONVECTION ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF NORTHERN CA INTO
SOUTH-CENTRAL OR ALONG AND NEAR THE CASCADES. DRIER, MORE RECEPTIVE
FUELS EXIST ACROSS FAR NORTHWESTERN CA WHERE RECENT PRECIPITATION
WAS LIMITED. IN ADDITION, GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS FROM THUNDERSTORMS
COULD IMPACT ONGOING FIRES ACROSS NORTHERN CA AS WELL PROMOTING NEW
FIRE STARTS WITH LIMITED PRECIPITATION EXPECTED. ISOLATED DRY
THUNDERSTORM HIGHLIGHTS WERE INTRODUCED TO COVER THIS THREAT.

..SYNOPSIS
A MID-LEVEL RIDGE SHOULD REMAIN IN PLACE OVER THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES
THROUGH THE DAY ON MONDAY WITH A CUTOFF LOW OFF THE CALIFORNIA
COAST. THE HEIGHT GRADIENT BETWEEN THESE TWO FEATURES IS EXPECTED TO
STRENGTHEN THROUGHOUT THE DAY, WHICH MAY ALLOW FOR A CORRIDOR OF
STRONGER SURFACE FLOW (15-20 MPH) WITH 5-10% RH ACROSS PORTIONS OF
SOUTHERN NEVADA. HOWEVER, CONFIDENCE IN THE OVERLAP OF THIS STRONGER
SURFACE FLOW WITH RECEPTIVE FUELS IS NOT HIGH. THEREFORE, WILL HOLD
OFF ON INTRODUCING ELEVATED HIGHLIGHTS AT THIS TIME.
