Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Reno NV 243 AM PDT Sun Apr 18 2021

SYNOPSIS.

Dry and warm spring conditions will prevail today through Monday as high pressure moves overhead. A low pressure system will then drop into the area Tuesday and Wednesday with cooler temperatures, increased winds and chances for showers. A few thunderstorms are also possible. Drier and warmer conditions return later in the week.

DISCUSSION.

Main change was adding a slight chance for thunder Tuesday afternoon for parts of northeast CA-northwest NV.

Gusty east winds over the Sierra ridges will wind down this morning, while elsewhere light winds and warmer spring temperatures with abundant sunshine will prevail today. Monday will be even warmer with highs well into the 70s for lower elevations and upper 60s for Sierra valleys. Latest statistical guidance gives a 20% chance of reaching 80 degrees at the Reno airport on Monday. These are high quality "get outdoors" days for most activities.

Then for Tuesday-Wednesday, a compact upper low is projected to drop into northern CA-northwest NV. This system is looking more likely to bring the best chances for showers Tuesday afternoon and evening for areas north of I-80, with increased west winds near and south of I-80. Instability and upper level forcing may be sufficient for isolated thunder as well, given this storm track and timing. Then for Wednesday, a secondary wave appears to push farther south across central CA, shifting the more favored shower chances to the Sierra/Tahoe regions while breezy north winds spread across eastern CA-western NV. Temperatures look to cool closer to seasonal averages by Wednesday, but travel impacts over the Sierra should be limited due to snow levels mainly 7000-8000 feet and most showers occurring during the daytime hours.

A drying trend with return to above average temperatures is then on tap for Thursday-Friday, with good ensemble agreement after the midweek weather system exits the Sierra and moves into the southwest US.

There is a possibility of a more notable trough of low pressure reaching the west coast by next weekend and beyond, although this system could stall and keep the best precip chances over the Pacific Northwest and far northern CA. The ensemble guidance is more fuzzy on the evolution of this trough, with additional uncertainty due to remnant western Pacific typhoon moisture and energy possibly altering the storm track and intensity. MJD

AVIATION.

VFR with mainly light winds today, and a bit of increased north winds Monday afternoon (gusts 15-20 kt) at the main terminals. A weak upper low could bring some showers to the area Tuesday into Wednesday, with brief reductions in ceilings and mountain obscurations. MJD
