Thunder August 7-11

There are chances for showers and thunderstorms Friday through Tuesday, mainly after 2 PM in and near the Sierra including far western NV. The main threats will be localized heavy rain with rapid temperature drops, gusty outflow winds, and frequent lightning which could lead to new fire starts. Heavy rainfall on recent wildfire burn scars will need to be monitored as well for possible debris flows. Storms could become more widespread and/or spread out farther into western and west-central Nevada early next week. Remember, when thunder roars head indoors and always have a “Plan B” to be prepared when threatening weather is possible.
