.DISCUSSION...

For today through the weekend, high pressure will dominate the
region. This will allow for well above average temperatures
across the western U.S. At this time, blended guidance still
shows temperatures on Thursday through Saturday in the upper 80s
to near 90 degrees in western NV. Sierra communities will be in
the upper 70s to low 80s. Dry conditions will persist through at
least Saturday along with light winds.

For Sunday, models and ensembles show a weak upper level low
moving into the region, flattening the ridge. This will introduce
a 10-15% chance for light precipitation in the eastern Sierra,
but confidence in this is low at the moment. Otherwise, temperatures
cool around 5 degrees on Sunday then level out into the middle of
next week, with 80s in western NV and 70s for eastern Sierra
communities. In the longer term forecast into mid-October, a dry,
warmer pattern is favored.- McKellar
