.DISCUSSION...

...Today-Thursday...
Afternoon radar imagery shows scattered light showers across the
area as an upper low gradually moves into the Great Basin.
Lingering light rain showers, mountain snow showers, and isolated
thunderstorm chances (10-15%) are expected through this afternoon
and early evening. Additional snowfall accumulations of up to 1 to
2 inches will be possible through this afternoon and early
evening above 4500-5000 feet. Check road conditions before you go

warmer conditions expected across the area. Forecast highs on
Thursday will be in the 60s to mid 70s in the Valley and
foothills, and in the 50s to 60s in the mountains.

...Friday - Early Next Week...

EPAC that will move over the area this weekend as it merges with
another trough. The troughing pattern will introduce chances for
light mountain rain and snow showers Friday through early next
week. Little to no impacts are expected as precipitation amounts
are anticipated to remain light. NBM continues to depicts a
10-25% chance for afternoon mountain thunderstorms each day, with
the highest chances on Saturday. Thunderstorms may also develop
