...WARMEST TEMPERATURES TODAY WITH COOLING INTO NEXT WEEK...
...NO ORGANIZED THREAT OF PRECIP FOR THE REGION THROUGH NEXT TUE...

.METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS (THU AM - WED AM)...

The high pressure ridge just off the west coast will retrograde a 
bit to end the week...opening the door to several disturbances to 
move through northwesterly flow aloft across the region. No real 
organized threat of precip through the period with the best 
opportunity for afternoon or early evening showers/t-storms near the 
crest of the southern Sierra on Saturday as one of these 
disturbances moves through the area. 

Above normal temperatures across much of the region today with the 
best anomalies across northeast CA and northwest NV from plus 10- to 
plus 15-degF will slowly cool back toward or just below normal by 
next week.
