Local Weather Forecast

Mostly sunny with a chance for an afternoon thunderstorm. Look for temperatures to reach 76° in Reno and 69° in Galena. Some high clouds this morning will give way to clear skies later today. A cut off low off the West Coast will set up conditions ripe for some convection (afternoon thunderstorms) this week as the atmosphere heats up and a cut off low approaches the West Coast. Be prepared each afternoon to seek shelter if a thunderstorm develops. Wind gusts around these storms can exceed 50 mph. Warmer Wednesday and Thursday. Cooler Friday and over the weekend as the cut off low impacts the region with a chance for some showers.
