KEY MESSAGES
* Warm and dry through midweek with highs 5 to 10 degrees above average with daily afternoon breezes. Enhanced snowmelt will keep streams cold and swift.
* Pattern changes late week with increasing chances for rain showers and high elevation snow starting Friday
* Gusty Sierra winds and colder temperatures may lead to light snow accumulations over mountain passes and subfreezing lows in Sierra valleys this weekend.
DISCUSSION
* A stretch of mild, dry spring weather continues through midweek across the Sierra and western Nevada. Afternoon highs will remain 5-10 degrees above normal with Sierra valleys in the 60s and western Nevada peaking in the 70s. Westerly winds will bring typical afternoon breezes, strongest Tuesday with gusts of 20-25 mph. This warmth will enhance spring snowmelt, keeping creeks and rivers running fast and cold, though flooding remains unlikely.
* By late Thursday into Friday, confidence is growing in a shift toward cooler, more unsettled conditions. Ensemble guidance indicates a broad upper trough will move in from the Pacific Northwest, bringing increased moisture, stronger winds, scattered shower chances, and a low (10-15%) potential for isolated thunderstorms. Snow levels will start between 7000-8000 ft Friday afternoon, then fall to 6000-6500 ft by early Saturday. The lowest snow levels of 5000-5500 ft are expected by early Sunday. Snow accumulations over the Sierra are expected to be light and slushy overall. There is a 45% chance for up to 1 inch, a 30% chance for 2 inches, and a 10% chance for totals reaching 4 inches over Donner Summit, Echo Summit, and Carson Pass.
* Winds will increase again late in the week, peaking Friday into Saturday, with gusts 50-75 mph along Sierra ridgetops and breezy conditions extending into western Nevada. Aviation concerns include turbulence and low-level wind shear, while boaters should expect choppy lake conditions. A colder air mass will settle in by the weekend, bringing overnight lows below freezing in Sierra valleys.

AVIATION
VFR conditions will prevail across all terminals through Tuesday. No ceiling or visibility restrictions are expected, with a few low and high level clouds.
Surface winds will strengthen out of the northwest through this afternoon with most terminals seeing gusts around 20 kts. Winds will diminish gradually after sunset across the region.
For Tuesday afternoon, gusty west-southwest winds will return across all terminals by early afternoon, with peak gusts expected between 21Z and 02Z. Surface winds at western Nevada terminals will gust to 25-30 kts, with Sierra terminals seeing gusts up to 20-25 kts.
These conditions may result in turbulence and low-level wind shear, particularly during approach and departure. Winds will ease after sunset.
