AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PORTLAND OR
900 AM PDT WED OCT 17 2007

.SYNOPSIS...A WET AND STORMY WEEK IS ON TAP. SLIGHTLY UNSTABLE COOL
ONSHORE FLOW WILL MAINTAIN SHOWERS ACROSS SOUTHWEST WASHINGTON AND
NORTHWEST OREGON TODAY...WITH SNOW IN THE MOUNTAINS. THE CENTER OF A
VERY STRONG STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE NORTHEAST TO VANCOUVER ISLAND
LATER TONIGHT AND THURSDAY BRINGING RAIN AND WIND TO THE FORECAST
AREA. ANOTHER RATHER STRONG SYSTEM WILL BRING ANOTHER SHOT OF RAIN
AND SOME WIND TO THE AREA LATE THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY. THE COOL
UPPER LOW WILL THEN SWING THROUGH THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST FRIDAY NIGHT
AND SATURDAY FOR COOL SHOWERS AND ACCUMULATING SNOW IN THE MOUNTAINS.
THE WEATHER MAY QUIET DOWN BY LATE IN THE WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT
WEEK.
&&

.SHORT TERM...STILL HAVE A SNOW ADVISORY TODAY IN THE CASCADES AS
ONSHORE FLOW BEHIND THE SYSTEM THAT PASSED THROUGH OVERNIGHT
MAINTAINS ONSHORE FLOW AND SHOWERS INTO OUR AREA. STILL A BIT
UNSTABLE NEAR THE COAST AND HAVE ADDED BACK IN SOME THUNDERSTORMS.
THE ONSHORE FLOW WILL DECREASE LATER TODAY AND EARLY TONIGHT WITH
DECREASING SHOWERS.

ATTENTION THEN TURNS TO THE NEXT RAPIDLY DEVELOPING VERY STRONG STORM
SYSTEM FOR LATE TONIGHT AND THURSDAY. TODAY AND EARLY TONIGHT WILL BE
KEY ON VERIFYING MODEL DETAILS ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM.
MODELS ARE COMING INTO AGREEMENT WITH THE SYSTEM TOWARD VANCOUVER
ISLAND LATE TONIGHT AND THURSDAY. WILL MAINTAIN CURRENT HIGH WIND
WATCHES FOR NOW. CENTER OF THE LOW IS FORECAST BY THE GFS MODEL TO BE
ABOUT 300 NM WEST OF ASTORIA AT 5 AM THURSDAY...THEN INTO CENTRAL
VANCOUVER ISLAND BY 5 PM THURSDAY. THIS SEEMS REASONABLE. THE WARM
FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING...AND THE ASSOCIATED COLD
FRONT PUSHES INLAND THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA THURSDAY AFTERNOON. WE
COULD SEE SOME SNOW AHEAD OF THE WARM FRONTAL PASSAGE THURSDAY
MORNING IN ESPECIALLY THE SOUTH WASHINGTON CASCADES...THEN SNOW
LEVELS RISE DRAMATICALLY. SHOWERS BEHIND THIS SYSTEM WILL LINGER INTO
THE EARLY EVENING.

THE GFS CONTINUES TO BE ADAMANT WITH ANOTHER LOW LATE THURSDAY NIGHT
AND FRIDAY MORNING. THIS WILL BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF WIND AND RAIN TO
THE AREA...AND WILL NEED TO SEE IF WE NEED A HIGH WIND WATCH AGAIN
FOR THE COAST AS WE GET CLOSER. THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH BY AFTERNOON
FOR SHOWERS THE SECOND HALF OF THE DAY. THE PARENT COOL UPPER LOW
THEN SWINGS THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY WITH FALLING SNOW
LEVELS AND PLENTY OF ONSHORE FLOW AND SHOWERS...PROBABLY ENOUGH FOR
AN ADVISORY. TOLLESON

.LONG TERM...NO CHANGES. PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...
THE LAST OF A SERIES OF WET PACIFIC SYSTEMS WILL MOVE OVER THE
PACIFIC NORTHWEST SAT NIGHT INTO SUN...WITH SHOWERS EXPECTED TO
LINGER AT LEAST OVER THE MOUNTAINS THROUGH THE DAY SUN. A REGIME
CHANGE MAY OCCUR EARLY NEXT WEEK AS MID-RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO HINT
AT A MODERATE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDING OVER THE AREA EARLY NEXT
WEEK. HOWEVER...TIMING AND INTENSITY HAS NOT BEEN CONSISTENT BETWEEN
MODEL RUNS.  HAVE MAINLY LEFT THE TIME PERIOD DRY FOR NOW...AS THE
RIDGE IS A COMMON FEATURE AMONGST THE VARIOUS MODELS. BROWN
