Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Northern and Central Nevada
National Weather Service Elko NV
134 AM PDT Tue Apr 22 2025

.DISCUSSION...Look for a slow moisture seep that will help to
introduce light showers, and possibly a thunderstorm, across
central and east-central Nevada by mid-week. Otherwise, pleasant
spring time weather will continue across northern and central
Nevada as high temperatures remain above normal with readings in
the 60s and 70s through the week. The chance at precipitation and
cooler weather returns across the forecast area for upcoming
weekend as a low pressure system impacts the Great Basin Saturday
and Sunday.



Note:  See 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
