201 AGUS76 KRSA 251337 HMDRSA Hydrometeorological Discussion National Weather Service / California Nevada RFC / Sacramento CA 640 AM PDT Sat May 25 2024 ...SCATTERED PRECIP TODAY ACROSS NORTHEAST NEVADA... .METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS (SAT AM - FRI AM)... The upr trof axis has shifted onshore with its axis now past the Sierra moving over the Great Basin. Best concentration of echoes according to the latest radar imagery shows the upper portions of the Humboldt River basin in northeast NV seeing light to locally moderate precip this morning. By this afternoon...the system will have moved east of the area on its way toward the Rocky Mountain states...leaving drier west to northwest flow aloft. Into early next week...an upr ridge is expected to build over the interior...while a deep upr low sets up over the Gulf of Alaska and extends southward over the northeast Pacific. General westerly flow aloft will be the rule on Sunday...turning a bit more from the southwest as the pattern evolves and amplifies. The below average temperatures today will warm closer to and then above normal for most areas from Sunday through Tuesday with the exception being along the immediate coast where marine influences will keep temperatures in check. Then...by the middle of the week a disturbance rotating around the parent upr low over the Gulf of Alaska will make its way toward the Pacific Northwest...as the high pressure over the interior makes its way over the Plains states. In general...precip is expected to remain north of the area...but the lowering heights will allow for temperatures to actually cool just a tad for Wednesday into Thursday...or at least not continue to ramp up. By the end of the week...heights will once again begin to rise with temperatures once again rebounding. QPF graphics are available at www.cnrfc.noaa.gov/qpf.php Kozlowski $$
