Updated at 1221 PM PST Fri Nov 7 2025 * Patchy freezing fog in the valleys for portions of Elko county Saturday morning * Warming trend begins today, persisting thru early next week * Potential for a wet weather system arriving late next week && .DISCUSSION... (This afternoon through next Friday) WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW: Low clouds continue to hang over northern and portions of central Nevada during the late morning period. Some off and on light rain showers were noted but those will head east and dissipate as the afternoon wears on. Skies will gradually clear during the evening and overnight. Lows will be in the 20s and 30s. With higher moisture near the surface, added patchy freezing fog during the early morning hours tomorrow in the valley locations. A building ridge of high pressure will move into the area beginning Saturday and lasting through next week. This will bring gradually warming afternoon highs for each afternoon, maximizing into the 60s Monday and Tuesday. Overnight lows will be in the 20s and 30s each morning. No precipitation is expected through this period and winds are expected to remain light for the most part. There is the possibility of strong southwest winds on Thursday and these will need to be watched. FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS: Low confidence in the formation of valley fog for tomorrow morning. High confidence in the forecast due to building high pressure through the period. This will lead to a warming trend into early next week. Moderate confidence in our next weather maker arriving late next week though disagreement in model guidance still exists on timing. && .AVIATION...Look for VFR conditions at all terminals through the next 24 hours. && .LKN Watches/Warnings/Advisories...
