...WARMER AND MAINLY DRY THROUGH THE WEEKEND...
...TURNING COOLER WITH INCREASING CHANCES OF PRECIP MON-WED...

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

The slow moving upr trof shifting across the region has finally
drifted east of the region...crossing the UT/NV border overnight on
its way toward the 4-Corners region today before picking up its
forward speed to the northeast. Behind this system...a fairly strong
upr ridge is currently aligned along 130W and will make its way
toward the western US for the remainder of the week. Also...a
disturbance diving southward on the front side of this upr ridge will
settle across extreme southern CA and northern Baja as it forms an
upr low Thursday into Friday. This will primarily bring dry and warm
conditions to the region with a slight chance of a shower or two
across portions of southern CA and southern NV as a bit of higher
moisture content air draw toward the region from Mexico in the
cyclonic flow aloft. Look for afternoon temperature anomalies to run
anywhere from plus 5- to plus 20-degF over seasonal
normals...peaking on Friday.

Through the weekend...the upr ridge will shift inland while the upr
low opens up and ejects eastward toward the Desert Southwest in
response to a deepening trof over the eastern Pacific. This system
looks to bring cooler temperatures to the region with an increasing
chance of precip from later Monday into the middle of the week.
Still some questions on where exactly the upr trof digs...whether it
be offshore...closer to the coast...or even inland. This will
determine what areas have a better opportunity for precip.
