...DRY WITH ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...

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

The slow moving upr low that traversed the region early this week 
has finally moved off downstream of the area...while also leaving an 
a piece of this disturbance in a compact upr low over northwest 
Mexico. At the same time an upr ridge has built just off the west 
coast...which has resulted in dry northerly flow across the region. 

Through the rest of the week...the upr ridge will slowly build over 
the west coast...bringing dry conditions and warming temperatures. A 
weak disturbance will briefly flatten the upr ridge on Friday as it 
moves across the Pacific Northwest...but this feature is expected to 
have little impact on conditions across CA and NV.

The peak of the upcoming upr ridge will be on Monday or Tuesday as 
afternoon high temperatures are expected to peak anywhere from plus 
10- to plus 20-degF over seasonal normals...with a few locations 
over the northern Sierra and northwest NV reaching an anomaly of 
plus 25-degF. 

Freezing levels currently between 10500- and 12500-feet...greatest 
over northwest CA will increase through the weekend into early next 
week and peak somewhere between 13500- and 15500-feet on Monday.
