AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PENDLETON OR
230 PM PST MON JAN 26 2009

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...A HIGH PRESSURE
RIDGE WITH AN ARCTIC AIR MASS CURRENTLY IN PLACE OVER THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST WILL PERSIST INTO TONIGHT. LIGHT WINDS COMBINED WITH
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES...LOW DEW POINTS AND A FRESH SNOW COVER WILL
ALLOW FOR STRONG RADIATIONAL COOLING TONIGHT. EXPECT MINIMUM TEMPS
RANGING FROM THE SINGLE DIGITS TO LOWER TEENS...EXCEPT FOR 5 BELOW
ZERO TO 5 ABOVE ZERO IN THE MOUNTAINS. THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL
SHIFT TO THE EAST LATE TONIGHT AND THE LOW TO MID LEVEL FLOW WILL
BECOME SOUTHERLY BY TUESDAY MORNING. THIS WILL RESULT IN WARM AIR
ADVECTION TO BEGIN EARLY TUESDAY MORNING WHICH WILL PREVENT THE
AFOREMENTIONED MIN TEMPS TONIGHT FROM GETTING ANY COLDER. ANOTHER
PACIFIC WEATHER SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION BY TUESDAY
AFTERNOON AND TUESDAY NIGHT. TIGHT W-SW PRESSURE GRADIENTS WILL
DEVELOP ALONG THE EAST SLOPES OF THE CASCADES BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON.
850 MB LOW LEVEL JET WINDS ARE PROGGED TO INCREASE TO BETWEEN 50 TO
60 KTS WITH THE STRONGEST WINDS BEING OVER THE SOUTH WA CASCADES AND
N OREGON CASCADES. THIS LOW LEVEL JET WILL CREATE A MOUNTAIN
WAVE/LEE SIDE TROUGH TO DEVELOP OVER THE CASCADES. THE INCOMING
WEATHER SYSTEM SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO MIX DOWN SOME OF THESE WINDS TO
THE SURFACE EAST OF THE CASCADES...PARTICULARLY OVER N CENTRAL
OREGON AND THE SOUTHERN WA CASCADE EAST SLOPE AREAS. EXPECT WIND
SPEEDS IN THESE AREAS TO REACH WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA BY TUESDAY
AFTERNOON CONTINUING THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING. AS SUCH WILL ISSUE A
WIND ADVISORY FOR THOSE AREAS. WILL NEED TO MONITOR ALSO THE LOWER
COLUMBIA BASIN...BLUE MOUNTAIN FOOTHILLS AND VALLEYS TO THE WEST OF
THE BASIN FOR A NEED OF A WIND ADVISORY THERE AS WELL. WITH THE
AMOUNT OF DOWN SLOPE FLOW EXPECTED OFF THE CASCADES AND THE BLUE
MTNS AM EXPECTING ANY PRECIP WITH THIS SYSTEM TO BE LIGHT AND
SURFACE TEMPS TO BE WARM ENOUGH FOR MAINLY RAIN IN THE LOWER
ELEVATIONS WITH SNOW ONLY IN THE MOUNTAINS. SNOW AND LOW ELEVATION
RAIN OR SNOW SHOWERS WILL PERSIST INTO WEDNESDAY IN THE EASTERN
MOUNTAINS AND ON THE CASCADE CREST DUE TO THE OROGRAPHIC UP SLOPE
FLOW. HOWEVER ANY SNOW ACCUMULATION SHOULD BE LIGHT AND UNDER
ADVISORY AMOUNTS. PRECIP MAY START OUT AS MIXED ON TUESDAY IN THE
BASIN AND ADJACENT VALLEYS TO THE NORTH AND WEST...BUT IT WILL
QUICKLY CHANGE OVER TO RAIN WITH ONLY VERY LIGHT AMOUNTS EXPECTED.
THIS WEATHER SYSTEM WILL MOVE TO THE EAST WITH DECREASING WINDS
LATER WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH CLEARING SKIES.
TEMPERATURES WILL BECOME MUCH WARMER ON WEDNESDAY IN THE WAKE OF
THIS NEXT SYSTEM AS ALL OF THE COLD AIR CURRENTLY IN PLACE SHOULD BE
MIXED OUT. 88

.LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY...AN UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE
RIDGE WILL BE PARKED ALONG THE COAST ON THURSDAY...WHICH THEN MOVES
INLAND AND ACROSS THE CWA THURSDAY NIGHT. A WEAK UPPER LEVEL SHORT
WAVE APPROACHES THE COAST ON FRIDAY AND THEN MOVES ACROSS THE
PACIFIC NORTHWEST OVER THE WEEKEND. THIS SYSTEM WILL PRODUCE A LIGHT
DUSTING OF SNOW AT SOME LOWER ELEVATIONS AND VERY LIGHT SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS IN THE MOUNTAINS OVER THE WEEKEND. THEN HIGH PRESSURE
ALOFT BUILDS OVER THE REGION FOR THE REST OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD.
POLAN

.AVIATION...18Z TAFS...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS. HOWEVER...SOME LINGERING LOW LEVEL CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE OVER
KPSC...KDLS...AND KRDM. WITH THIS EXPECT BRIEF PERIODS OF IFR AND
MVFR CONDITIONS THIS MORNING...BUT ANTICIPATE THAT THEY WILL BE GONE
BY 20Z. EXPECT CLEAR SKIES AND WINDS LESS THAN 10KTS FOR MUCH OF THE
NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. ANOTHER WEATHER SYSTEM WILL PUSH IN TOMORROW
MORNING AND MAY BRING SOME SPOT SHOWERS OVER KYKM AND KDLS.  WEBER
