.DISCUSSION...

Mostly clear skies are expected across the area through this
weekend with the exception of patchy freezing fog in Sierra and W
NV valleys each morning. Any fog that develops will likely
dissipate by late morning. Overnight lows will be quite brisk,
with many locations areawide below freezing through much of this
week. Afternoon highs will range in the 50s across much of the
area, as well, with high Sierra communities in the 40s.

A brief brush-by system late Sunday into Monday will bring
increased chances of precipitation along the Oregon border (15%
chance showers). This will also bring increased winds along
ridgelines. Valley breezes can expect an uptick as well, though
nothing substantial to write home about. We are in Reno, after all.
Other than that, ridging is expected to prevail through the
Thanksgiving holiday. Model guidance is relatively confident in a
system as early as next Friday, though specific details have yet
to be ironed out.
