.DISCUSSION...

Our weather pattern this week will undergo little change as broad
high pressure remains anchored in the eastern Pacific with weak
troughing overhead. We`ll slowly cool off through midweek as low
pressure develops, but it`ll stay warm throughout the week as
daytime highs reach the 70s and 80s. Winds will remain light much of
this week, save for our typical zephyr breezes in the afternoons.

Afternoon showers and isolated thunderstorms are expected each day
this week with best chances (10-30%) favoring the Sierra south of
Tahoe and Mineral County. In fact, latest satellite observations
reveal a maturing cumulus field along the higher terrain of Alpine
and Mono County, suggesting this is where the near term potential
of thunderstorms is greatest. Potential impacts from any
thunderstorm include brief heavy downpours, small hail, gusty
outflows, and lightning/new fire starts.

The eastern Pacific high finally dislodges at the end of this week
and traverses eastward into the Pacific Northwest. Temperatures will
steadily warm after Wednesday in response as we return to 80- and 90-
degree heat in time for the weekend. Widespread moderate HeatRisk is
expected across western Nevada with minor HeatRisk for Sierra
communities over the weekend. Be sure to continue heat safety
practices such as staying hydrated and limiting time in the heat.

.AVIATION...

The primary weather concern will be a 10-30% chance of showers and
thunderstorms near KMMH through 03Z. Thunderstorms will be capable
of small hail, gusty/erratic outflow winds, and occasional
lightning. Otherwise, widespread VFR conditions and breezy west
winds in the afternoon today and Tuesday.
