KEY MESSAGES
* Expect widespread freezing to near freezing temperatures this morning and again Tuesday.
* A ridge builds back into the region by mid-week, allowing for warmer and drier conditions into the weekend.
DISCUSSION
We tied a snowfall record at the Reno Int'l Airport today with officially a trace of snow, thanks to the cold frontal passage today. Expect a very cold morning today with lows near to below freezing for much of the area. Overnight lows rebound a bit Tuesday morning, but will remain on the chilly side. As for today, expect breezy afternoon winds with highs back to the mid 60s (valleys) and upper 50s (Sierra).
We remain in a troughing upper-level pattern, with a low sitting off the coast of Baja California and high pressure building off the coast of the PacNW. This will allow for weak pressure gradients aloft, letting us slowly warm up through the week (as the ridge progresses eastward) with light and typical diurnal winds. Dry conditions will also accompany the warming trend.
Looking towards the holiday weekend, there's a ~40% chance to see highs above 90 degrees in Reno and ~40% chance to see over 80 degrees in Tahoe. Shower chances look slim to none for the weekend as well.
