DISCUSSION

A quick moving low pressure system will impact our area starting early this morning, continuing through Sunday afternoon. The main threats today include showers and isolated thunderstorms, as well as gusty NW winds. Today will also be the coolest day of the week with highs in the 50s and 60s across much of the area. The greatest chance for showers and thunderstorms will be in NE CA and along the OR border, with a 70-90% chance for showers and 25-30% chance for lightning. Chances gradually decrease as you progress southward across the area, with a 40-60% chance for showers in W NV (10-15% chance lightning). Shower and thunderstorm chances along the Sierra will be 10-20%. Snow levels will be above 8000 ft with little to no snow accumulations expected. Wind gusts out of the W and NW today will range between 30 and 40 mph for W NV with up to 80 mph along the Sierra crest.

Winds stay elevated Sunday while temperatures remain cool, albeit a bit warmer than today. Strong wind gusts will be wider in areal coverage, with gusts up to 40 mph across W NV.
