278 FNUS55 KLKN 062028 FWFLKN Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Northern and Central Nevada National Weather Service Elko NV 128 PM PDT Mon Oct 6 2025 Note: Check Fire Weather Discussion in the Area Forecast Discussion for more info Note: Thunderstorms imply gusty and erratic winds Note: CWR means precipitation totals will be more than 0.10 inches Note: Winds in the extended forecast are average daytime winds .DISCUSSION...Fire weather concerns are minimal for the next several days. Look for afternoon temperatures to slowly warm into the 70s by mid-week while minimum relative humidity values remain above critical thresholds. Still watching the potential for strong winds Wednesday through Friday with southwest to south winds 10 to 20 with gusts to 30 mph especially across the central Nevada zones. Precipitation chances increase on Friday through the upcoming weekend as another upper trough and surface frontal system look to travel across Nevada through this time. && NVZ437-071115- Humboldt County-Quinn- 128 PM PDT Mon Oct 6 2025 .TONIGHT... * Sky/weather........Mostly clear. * Min Temperature.... * Valleys..........31-41. * Mid slope........39-49. * 24 hr trend......4 degrees warmer. * Max humidity....... * Valleys..........68-78%. * Mid slope........45-55%. * 24 hr trend......8% drier. * 20-foot winds...... * Valleys..........Downslope/down valley winds 2 to 5 mph. * Ridge top........East 10 to 15 mph. * Chc Wetting Rain...0%. .TUESDAY... * Sky/weather........Mostly sunny. * Max Temperature.... * Valleys..........64-74. * Mid slope........56-66. * 24 hr trend......3 degrees warmer. * Min humidity....... * Valleys..........21-26%. * Mid slope........26-33%. * 24 hr trend......5% drier. * 20-foot winds...... * Valleys..........Upslope/up valley winds 4 to 8 mph. * Ridge top........South 10 to 15 mph. * Mixing Height......5000 ft agl. * Transport winds....East 6 to 12 mph shifting to the south in the afternoon. * Chc Wetting Rain...0%. .TUESDAY NIGHT... * Sky/weather........Mostly clear. * Min Temperature.... * Valleys..........34-44. * Mid slope........43-53. * 24 hr trend......4 degrees warmer. * Max humidity....... * Valleys..........65-75%. * Mid slope........39-49%. * 24 hr trend......14% drier. * 20-foot winds...... * Valleys..........Downslope/down valley winds 2 to 5 mph. * Ridge top........Southwest 10 to 15 mph. * Chc Wetting Rain...0%. .WEDNESDAY... * Sky/weather........Mostly sunny. * Max Temperature.... * Valleys..........68-78. * Mid slope........61-71. * 24 hr trend......6 degrees warmer. * Min humidity....... * Valleys..........21-26%. * Mid slope........25-33%. * 24 hr trend......Little change. * 20-foot winds...... * Valleys..........Upslope/up valley winds 4 to 8 mph.
