060 FXUS65 KREV 010806 AFDREV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Reno NV 106 AM PDT Sat Nov 1 2025 .KEY MESSAGES... * Warm and dry weather with hazy valley skies in the mornings will continue through the weekend. * A Pacific storm may bring increased winds, rain, and mountain snow midweek, but intensity and impacts remain uncertain. && .DISCUSSION... Today will be the warmest day of the week with afternoon highs in the mid 70s for W NV valleys and upper 60s/low 70s for Sierra communities. The record high for the Reno Intl Airport today is 77; the current forecast is 76. The NBM shows a 75% chance for tying the record with a 50/50 chance of hitting a new record. Stay tuned! Hazy valley mornings will continue through early next week as winds remain light and dry conditions prevail. A small disturbance off the southern CA coast may track inland Sunday, but the main impact will be cooler temperatures, albeit not much cooler. The big story this week will be a Pacific storm impacting the area Wednesday. We`re still pretty far out in the forecast so confidence remains low on the extent of the impacts with this system (timing, precip amounts). What we can count on, though, are cooler temperatures (low 60s for W NV valleys and low 50s for Sierra communities), gusty winds, and widespread precip chances Wednesday. However, we`ll wait to dive into the nitty gritty of this system until models can come into better agreement. -Giralte && .AVIATION... Reductions to slantwise visibilities remain possible through the weekend, especially at Tahoe and Sierra Front terminals due to nearby prescribed burns. Otherwise, expect VFR conditions and light winds to prevail through the weekend. -Giralte/Salas && .REV Watches/Warnings/Advisories... NV...None. CA...None. && $$
