...Synopsis...
Along the northwestern periphery of an amplified large-scale ridge
extending from the Southwest to the Pacific Northwest, monsoonal
moisture will continue spreading northward from the Great Basin into
northern CA and OR. This will contribute to sufficient buoyancy for
diurnally driven thunderstorms during the afternoon into the evening
-- likely aided by a convectively augmented/generated midlevel
vorticity maximum/MCV emerging from the northern Sierra. A mix of
wet/dry thunderstorms are expected, and given receptive fuels across
the region, lightning-induced ignitions will be possible away from
any heavier precipitation cores that evolve.
