...MAINLY DRY WITH ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS THROUGH THE WEEKEND...

.METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS (TUE AM - MON AM)...

The strong area of high pressure over the interior continues with
its axis across the Rocky Mountain states...while over the northeast
Pacific and the Gulf of Alaska resides general lower pressure. This
continues the dry southwest flow across CA and NV with the
opportunity for any precip diminishing after the next couple days.
And even then...precip will be limited to extreme northeast NV
during the afternoon and early evening hours of Tuesday and
Wednesday.

By the end of the week...the area of high pressure will retreat
slowly to the west and settle near or just west of the 4-Corners
region as it peaks near 6000-meters at 500-mb on Friday. For the
weekend into Monday...an area of low pressure moving across BC and
the Pacific Northwest may temporarily flatten the upr ridge with
slight height decreases...but this looks short-lived as the upr
ridge once again takes control of the western US for Tuesday into
Wednesday of next week.

Overall temperature anomalies look to peak anywhere from plus 5- to
plus 15-degF over seasonal normals. Freezing levels currently
running from 14500-feet northwest to 17000-feet southeast will peak
on Friday anywhere from 16500- to 18500-feet with some slight
modification down through the weekend into Monday.
