.DISCUSSION...
(This afternoon through Monday)

WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW: A ridge of high pressure will build
northward across the Silver State this afternoon through
Thanksgiving Day. A warming trend is expected Wednesday and
Thanksgiving Day. By Thursday afternoon, maximum temperatures
across Northern and Central Nevada will be twelve to fourteen
degrees above seasonal values. A cold front will move
southeastward into Utah Friday. The southern extent of this cold
front may clip Northeastern Nevada Friday, resulting in a slight
chance of light precipitation. This small precipitation
possibility should be confined to Northern Elko County.

Another cold front will move southward across Eastern Nevada
Saturday night into Sunday morning. There is a slight chance of
light precipitation in Northern and Central Nevada ahead of and
along this cold front Saturday afternoon through Sunday morning.
High temperatures throughout Northern and Central Nevada Saturday
afternoon will be seven to nine degrees colder than Friday
afternoon. Maximum temperatures across Northern and Central
Nevada Sunday afternoon will be a couple of degrees below normal
for this time of year. Minimum apparent temperatures Sunday night
will be near zero degrees in the coldest valleys of Northern and
Central Nevada. High temperatures will return to seasonal values
Monday afternoon.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS:
High forecast confidence in a warming trend Wednesday and
Thanksgiving Day. Moderate forecast confidence regarding colder
weather this weekend into early next week. Low forecast confidence
in the slight possibility of light precipitation Saturday
afternoon through Sunday morning. No changes or deviations from
the NBM model output.
