Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Elko NV
110 PM PST Sat Nov 9 2019

.SYNOPSIS...Dry conditions will persist well into next week with
some high cloud cover at times. Temperatures will fall slightly
for the early part of the week with the next opportunity for 
precipitation Thursday or Friday.

&&

.SHORT TERM...Tonight through Monday. A band of cirrus moving 
through the northwestern parts of the state will signal a subtle 
change transitioning into Sunday and Monday. As the ridge becomes 
less amplified over the region, northwest flow will commence and 
usher in a subtle short wave that will cool temperatures down a 
few degrees for Sunday and Monday. The change in temperature is 
the main impact with dry conditions persisting along with 
relatively light winds. Mid and upper-level cloud cover will peak 
Sunday before clearing again Monday as yet another ridge amplifies
over the West Coast.

.LONG TERM...Tuesday through Saturday. Another strong ridge will 
become established over the region Tuesday and Wednesday bringing 
mild temperatures, light winds and dry conditions into the state. 
A more southwest flow aloft will bring in some Pacific moisture 
and cloud cover Wednesday but no precip is expected. Models are 
indicating a more active wave pattern coming up for late next week
perhaps bringing opportunities for cooler temperatures along with
rain and snow back into the forecast but for now nothing 
noteworthy is expected. High temperatures will be in the 60s with 
lows in the 20s, cooling down closer to normal by the end of next 
week.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR conditions along with light winds are expected
through Sunday.


&&

.LKN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
None.
