Summary:
  • High pressure currently over the southern Plains states will rebuild westward and anchor itself near the 4-Corners region by this weekend and early next week. Flow along the west coast will generally turn from the southwest, ushering in a drier airmass.
  • Best opportunity for scattered showers and thunderstorms will be today across northern and eastern Nevada. Otherwise, look for chances of precipitation to wane through the rest of the week into early next week.
  • Little change in river levels is expected over the next several days.
