Frontal passage brings Red Flag Warnings and precipitation to Western states

Red Flag Warnings
Red Flag Warnings. The areas in CA, NV, ID, and CO expire Monday evening. The areas in ND, SD, WY, and most of MT expire Tuesday evening.

A frontal passage is bringing strong winds into most of the Western U.S., prompting Red Flag Warnings in seven states. The Red Flag Warnings generally expire Monday night except in North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, and most of the areas in Montana, which expire Tuesday evening.

The cumulative precipitation forecast through Saturday evening shows at least a small amount of precipitation occurring in many western areas, but many locations will receive less than 0.10″.  Even some snow or rain/snow mix is in the forecast for portions of Oregon, Washington, Nevada, and Idaho.

Most of the southern two-thirds of California and Nevada are expected to remain dry through Saturday.

  1. Hi Bill,

    I wonder (ponder) if you know what you are doing for your READERS??? I wonder (ponder) how many of your READERS recognize what you are doing for them??? You are being the intermediary between the knowledge (FIGURES) of the METEOROLOGISTS so we NON-METEOROLOGISTS can see the information upon which they attempt PREDICT occurrence of the RANDOM WEATHER.

    Maybe You and the READERS do not appreciate what you are doing, relative to this METEOROLOGY, but I do!!! You are doing what I term to be a LITERATURE SEACH which takes significant TIME and EFFORT!!! THANK YOU!!

    Have a good day, Jerry
