...SCATTERED SHOWERS NE NEVADA TODAY AND THE SIERRA TODAY/TOMORROW...
...WARMING TREND THROUGH THE WEEKEND LEVELING OFF NEXT WEEK...

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

Troffing along the west coast continues to weaken as the region 
enters the latter half of the week. As this occurs...look for high 
pressure to build over the 4-Corners region with building heights 
across CA and NV. This will last through the upcoming July 4th 
weekend. A weak weather system may slide across the Pacific 
Northwest and northern CA into northern NV on Monday into Tuesday.

Overall...afternoon precip that has developed across northeast NV 
should occur again today...and then diminish into the weekend. The 
Sierra has a slight chance of very scattered showers/t-storms 
building during the afternoon hours mainly today and tomorrow. The 
weak weather system moving in Monday into Tuesday may bring some 
very scattered showers to the upper Klamath River basin and 
northeast CA Plateau spreading into far northern NV.

Freezing levels currently from 12500- to 16000-feet from north to 
south will show an increase through the period and level off closer 
to the range of 14500- to 17500-feet as heights begin to rise.
