.DISCUSSION...through this weekend.
High pressure ridge will continue to build across the region
through Wednesday, with dry conditions continuing as well as a
warming trend over the next few days. The average last 100 degree
day of the year in Las Vegas is around September 18th, and by
Wednesday NBM probabilities climb to 10% for reaching 100. As
moisture and cloud cover increases on Thursday, temperatures will
begin to trend downward through the weekend. While temps will be
above normal, heat risk remains pretty firmly in the minor
territory outside of the lower reaches of Death Valley and the
Colorado River Valley.
Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Mario has regenerated this morning in
the Eastern Pacific and will gradually trek northwest over the
next couple days before eventually dissipating. As its remnants
drift northward they will become entrained in the flow thanks to a
weak low lurking off the SoCal Coast, and eventually spread north
into the Mojave Desert and southern Great Basin by late week.
Overall, forecast guidance remains in pretty agreement on this
general concept of moisture advancement into the region. What`s
less certain is if there will be favorable forcing features (jet
streak, shortwaves, boundaries, etc) present to act on this
moisture. This makes details like precipitation coverage and
amounts less certain, but for now the fairly widespread 20-50
percent PoPs late in the week and into the weekend look pretty
good and are in agreement with our general messaging. Stay tuned
over the coming days as we better hone in on the potential for
heavier rainfall and areas of more concentrated activity.
