Isolated, dry thunderstorms are expected in Eastern Nevada from 11 AM PDT this morning until 5 PM PDT this afternoon. "Dry thunderstorms" are thunderstorms that produce little or no rainfall at the surface. In combination with arid fuels (i.e. vegetation), dry thunderstorms can ignite wildfires with lightning, but will not produce much rain to put the wildfires out.

There is an elevated risk of wildfires in Eastern Nevada from 11 AM PDT this morning until 9 PM PDT this evening. The combination of critically dry fuels, very low relative humidity values, and gusty southwest to west winds can contribute to extreme fire behavior. Any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.

A Fire Weather Watch remains in effect for most of Northern and Central Nevada from 11 AM PDT Friday morning until 11 PM PDT Friday evening. The combination of critically dry fuels, very low relative humidity values, and strong, gusty west winds can contribute to extreme fire behavior. Any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.

West wind gusts near 45 mph are expected throughout Northern and Central Nevada from 11 AM PDT Saturday morning until 10 PM PDT Saturday evening. A Wind Advisory may be required. Blowing dust will reduce visibilities at times. Travel will be difficult, particularly for high profile vehicles.
