AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN FRANCISCO CA
1115 AM PST WED DEC 28 2005

.DISCUSSION...STRONG COLD FRONT MOVED THROUGH THE AREA THIS MORNING
WITH MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL.  LOOKS LIKE LAST 24 HRS PRODUCED
WIDESPREAD 2 TO 3 INCH RAINFALL IN THE NORTH BAY WITH SOME WET
LOCATIONS LIKE VENADO SEEING 6 INCHES SINCE YESTERDAY MORNING. THE
RUSSIAN IS EXPECTED TO REACH FLOOD STAGE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AT
HEALDSBURG AND AFTER MIDNIGHT AT GUERNEVILLE.  THE CRESTS SHOULD
PRODUCE ONLY MINOR FLOODING.  THE NAPA RIVER IS NOW EXPECTED TO
REMAIN BELOW FLOOD STAGE SO CANCELLED THE FLOOD WARNING FOR THE
NAPA. THE URBAN AND SMALL STREAM FLOOD WARNING IS CONTINUING FOR
SONOMA AND NAPA COUNTIES AS SMALL STREAM AND CREEKS ARE NEAR
BANKFULL AND STILL SHOWING SOME RISES. (SEE WGUS86 KMTR - SFOFLSMTR).
WINDS REACHED UP TO 55 MPH IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE NORTH BAY
WITH THE FRONT AND ISOLATED GUSTS ARE STILL BEING REPORTED AT SOME
RAWS SITES.  HOWEVER WINDS HAVE GENERALLY DROPPED OFF BEHIND THE
FRONT.

LATEST SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS SOME COLD AIR CUMULUS AND A FEW
LIGHTNING STRIKES OFF THE NORTH COAST SO MAY STILL SEE SOME
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE AREA TODAY.  WITH THE FREEZING LEVEL DROPPING
QUICKLY MAY SEE SOME SMALL HAIL EMBEDDED IN THESE CELLS.

NEXT BIG PROBLEM IS IS SYSTEM JUST CROSSING 150W BETWEEN 30 AND 50N
LATITUDE.  MODELS INDICATE THIS SYSTEM WILL BEGIN TO IMPACT THE
NORTH COAST THURSDAY EVENING AND SPREAD SOUTH THROUGH THE DAY
FRIDAY. THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL WILL STILL BE FOCUSED IN THE NORTH BAY
BUT MODELS ARE INDICATING THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING HEAVIER RAINFALL
TO THE CENTRAL COAST INTO THE SANTA LUCIAS BY SATURDAY MORNING.
GIVEN THAT THIS STROM IS CLOSE ON THE HEELS OF THE CURRENT STORM
EXPECT MAJOR FLOOD PROBLEMS IN THE NORTH BAY FRIDAY NIGHT AND
SATURDAY.  IN ADDITION THE COMBINATION OF HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES OF
7 FEET COMBINED WITH HIGH SURF OF 16 TO 18 FEET AND STRONG SOUTHERLY
WINDS AND MAJOR RUNOFF COULD CAUSE SOME COASTAL FLOODING SATURDAY
MORNING.  THIS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY STORM IS NOT AS STRONG AS WHAT
THE MODELS ARE FORECASTING FOR NEW YEARS DAY.

LATEST GFS HAS A 969 MB LOW FORECAST OFF THE OREGON COAST BY LATE IN
THE DAY SUNDAY. THIS WOULD PROBABLY GENERATE WINDS ABOVE WARNING
CRITERIA...VERY HEAVY RAIN...AND AGAIN A VERY STRONG THREAT OF
COASTAL FLOODING AS SEAS WILL EXCEED 20 FEET LATE SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY.  IT IS ALWAYS DANGEROUS TO MAKE COMPARISONS BUT HAVING
LIVED THOROUGH FEBRUARY 1986...THIS CURRENT PATTERN IS BEGINNING TO
HAVE THAT LOOK TO IT.  BOTH THE EURO AND GFS CONTINUE THE ONSLAUGHT
OF RAIN INTO THE LATER PART OF NEXT WEEK THUS MAKING THIS A VERY
EXTENDED RAINY PERIOD.  FEBRUARY 1986 WAS ALSO A VERY EXTENDED
RAINY PERIOD WITH A GOOD SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE TAP AS THESE STORMS
HAVE HAD.

AGAIN WITH THE SATURATED GROUNDS AND EXPECTED WINDY CONDITIONS WITH
EACH STORM COULD SEE SOME MAJOR POWER OUTAGES AND WIDESPREAD
FLOODING OVER THE NEXT WEEK.  ALL CONCERNED SHOULD MAKE SURE THEY
HAVE ADEQUATE EMERGENCY SUPPLIES OF FOOD...WATER...AND BATTERIES
FOR FLASHLIGHTS AND PORTABLE RADIOS.  THIS COULD BE A VERY SERIOUS
AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS NEXT 5 TO 10 DAYS.

&&

.MARINE...HIGH SURF WARNING CONTINUES FROM THE SAN FRANCISCO
PENINSULA NORTHWARD AS SEAS 18-19 FT ARE CURRENTLY BEING REPORTED
BY THE BODEGA BAY AND HALF MOON BAY COASTAL BUOYS. BREAKERS TO 25 FT
ARE LIKELY OCCURRING ALONG THE AFFECTED BEACHES AND ACROSS THE SAN
FRANCISCO BAR. FURTHER SOUTH...SEAS ARE SLIGHTLY LOWER...SO STUCK
WITH HIGH SURF ADVISORY FOR 15-18 FT SEAS FROM THE MONTEREY BAY
SHORELINE SOUTHWARD TO THE BIG SUR COAST. SEAS WILL REMAIN HIGH
THIS AFTERNOON...THEN GRADUALLY SUBSIDE TONIGHT AND TO AROUND 10 TO
13 FT BY MIDDAY THURSDAY. THIS PERIOD OF LOWER SEAS WILL LIKELY BE
BRIEF. THE NEXT STORM IS ALREADY GETTING ITS ACT TOGETHER OVER THE
CENTRAL PACIFIC...AND WILL LIKELY BRING RENEWED HIGH SURF ACTIVITY
TO THE COAST BY FRIDAY. NOAA WAVEWATCH III MODEL CONTINUES TO
GENERATE VERY LARGE SEAS FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK FROM A POWERFUL STORM
NOW EMERGING FROM THE KAMCHATKA PENINSULA OF RUSSIA. THIS STORM IS
EXPECTED TO RIDE THE VERY STRONG WESTERLY JET AND RACE ACROSS THE
PACIFIC...AND AS MENTIONED ABOVE...THE GFS DEVELOPS IT INTO A 969 MB
STORM OFF THE OREGON COAST BY SUNDAY. IN RESPONSE THE WAVEWATCH III
HAS BEEN PERSISTENT WITH THE LAST SEVERAL RUNS IN GENERATING 7 TO 8
METER SWELL ALONG OUR COAST BY SUNDAY NIGHT OR MONDAY. IF THIS
OCCURS...WE COULD SEE BREAKERS IN EXCESS OF 30 FEET POUNDING OUR
SHORELINE BY EARLY NEXT WEEK.

WINDS ARE COMING DOWN EVERYWHERE EXCEPT SF BAY LATE THIS MORNING.
WILL LET GALE WARNING RIDE ACROSS SF BAY AS SFO AIRPORT AND GOLDEN
GATE BRIDGE CONTINUE TO REPORT GUSTS TO NEAR GALE FORCE. DOWNGRADED
TO SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WITH NO END IN SIGHT AS SEAS WILL EXCEED 10
FEET FOR THE ENTIRE FORECAST PERIOD. NEXT CHANCE FOR GALES WILL BE
LATE THURSDAY NIGHT/FRIDAY IN ADVANCE OF THE NEXT MAJOR COLD FRONT.

&&

.PREVIOUS AVIATION...MOST AREA TERMINALS HAVE SHIFTED TO THE
WEST SOUTHWEST OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS IN RESPONSE TO THE
FRONTAL PASSAGE. STRONG WINDS THAT ACCOMPANIED THE FRONTAL PASSAGE
WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH AS THE FRONT MOVES FURTHER EAST. THE
AIRPORT WEATHER WARNING FOR SFO WILL BE ALLOWED TO EXPIRE AT 20Z AS
WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO DROP BELOW WARNING CRITERIA. CEILING WILL
GRADUALLY LIFT TO MVFR HEIGHT AFTER 21Z THIS AFTERNOON AND SCATTER
OUT AROUND 00Z. ISOLATED T-STORMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE THROUGH THE
FIRST HALF OF THE AFTERNOON.
