207 PM PST SUN DEC 13 2009

.SYNOPSIS...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING DRY CONDITIONS TO THE REGION
TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON. A SLOW MOVING FRONTAL SYSTEM
IS EXPECTED TO BRING PERIODS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN MONDAY
NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING...ALONG WITH HIGH TERRAIN SNOW
ACCUMULATION.

&&

.DISCUSSION...MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE IS UPCOMING RAIN EVENT FOR
MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. AFTERNOON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY
SHOWING RISING HEIGHT TREND THIS AFTERNOON AS UPPER TROUGH
CONTINUES TO EXIT TO THE EAST. ASSOCIATED SUBSIDENCE HAS HINDERED
ANY WIDESPREAD INSTABILITY SHOWER DEVELOPMENT...AND EXPECT MAINLY

UPPER RIDGE WILL SHIFT OVERHEAD THROUGH MONDAY.

FORECAST ATTENTION THEN TURNS TO NEXT VIGOROUS SHORT WAVE ROTATING
AROUND UPPER LOW...CURRENTLY NEAR 150W 40N PER WATER VAPOR. ALTHOUGH
THIS SYSTEM WILL COME ASHORE WELL TO THE NORTH...THE TRAILING LOW
LEVEL THERMAL BOUNDARY WILL BECOME SEMI-PARALLEL TO THE UPPER FLOW
PATTERN OVER THE NORTH COAST REGION. THIS PATTERN WILL RESULT IN A
MUCH SLOWER FRONTAL PASSAGE. MOISTURE ADVECTION WILL BE FAVORABLE AS
STRONG MOISTURE TRANSPORT VECTORS RESULTS IN AXIS OF 1.35 PWATS TO
PUSH DIRECTLY TOWARD THE NORTHERN CA COAST. STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY
JET COUPLED WITH THE STRENGTHENING UPPER JET STREAK TO THE N/NW
ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE ENHANCED FORCING TO THE SYSTEM
THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. LOOKS LIKE A GOOD SET UP FOR PERIODS OF
MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING.

SNOW LEVELS WILL CLIMB THROUGHOUT THE EVENT WITH CONTINUED WARM AIR
ADVECTION. LOWEST LEVELS DURING THE ONSET OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL
BE 4500 TO 5000 KT ACROSS EASTERN TRINITY AS H85 TEMPS HOVER AROUND
ZERO TO -1C. MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING WILL BE THE BEST
CHANCE FOR SEVERAL INCHES OF SNOW ACCUMULATION ACROSS THE HIGH PEAKS
OF THE TRINITY ALPS...MAINLY ABOVE 6000 FT AS SNOW LEVELS RISE TO
5500 FT OR GREATER. GUSTY WINDS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE
RIDGES.
