High Pressure Aloft is cranking tonight with heights of 597DM over NW Nevada…Rare Easterly flow has developed with isolated storms moving east to west……SE flow develops Thursday as airmass modifacation continues….Moderate Monsoonal flow develops w/Increasing dynamics for Scattered Thunderstorms Thursday and Friday….
Tuesday August 1, 2017
Showers and thunderstorms have been mainly isolated the past few days. The Atmosphere has for the most part been capped, so showers are occurring later in the day. Tomorrow Tuesday and Wednesday the upper high will reach its peak intensity over Northern CA and Nevada with resort levels reaching its highs of the Summer. The Ridge will also take on more of a NW/SE orientation. As the cap weakens Thursday and Friday, dynamics increase and Monsoonal moisture moves up from the south. At the moment, the best convection may be west over the coastal sections of CA and interior deserts Wednesday night. Furthermore, for Southern Mono County, Thursday afternoon and night seems to be the main stormy period with storms strengthening at night! Will fine tune Tomorrow. For the Deserts of Inyo and Kern County, Wednesday night may have some mesoscale convective clusters along with flash flooding. Trans-desert travel in this area Wednesday night will be very risky!
For you folks in Southern CA, get ready for some real humidity as PWAT reaches between 1.5 and 2.00 in some areas….More later…
