AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
357 PM PST FRI NOV 18 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
RAIN AND MOUNTAIN SNOW SHOWERS WILL TAPER OFF TONIGHT. A FEW SHOWERS
WILL BE POSSIBLE ON SATURDAY BUT OVERALL EXPECT A DRIER DAY AS A
STORM SYSTEM PASSES OFFSHORE. CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPROVE
WITH SOME SUNSHINE EXPECTED FOR SUNDAY INTO MONDAY BEFORE RAIN
RETURNS FOR THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
500MB TROUGH AXIS AND STRONG VORT MAX IS JUST ABOUT ON THE COAST
NEAR THE ORCA BORDER AND WILL CONTINUE PRESSING EASTWARD. ASSOCIATED
AXIS OF COLDEST AIR ALOFT WILL CONTINUE PASSING EAST WITH NVA AND
WARMING ALOFT RESULTING IN SNOW LEVELS TENDING TO RISE OVERNIGHT.
LATEST SATELLITE AND RADAR TRENDS ALSO INDICATING DECREASING
COVERAGE IN SHOWER ACTIVITY WITH MORE BREAKS IN THE CLOUD
COVER...ALTHOUGH SOME OF THE SHOWERS ARE STILL RELATIVELY INTENSE
WITH INSTABILITY MAXIMIZED. NSSL SNOW LEVEL ANALYSIS IS FITTING
WEBCAMS AND OBS FAIRLY WELL...RANGING FROM JUST ABOVE 2000 FT NEAR
THE ORCA BORDER TO 3500 FT IN EASTERN MENDOCINO COUNTY. WEBCAM ALONG
199 AT THE OREGON BORDER JUST ABOVE 1700 FT HAD SNOW AT LEAST
BRIEFLY AND THE SNOW COATED THE PAVEMENT OVER BERRY SUMMIT THIS
AFTERNOON WITH A HEAVIER BURST. SOMEWHAT MORE STABLE AND DRIER AIR
WILL PUSH IN FOR TONIGHT WITH DECREASED SHOWER ACTIVITY. OVERALL
SNOWFALL REPORTS WERE LIMITED AND ALTHOUGH SEVERAL INCHES LIKELY
OCCURRED ABOVE 4000 FT IT SEEMS LIKE SLIGHTLY HIGHER SNOW LEVELS THAN
EXPECTED STARTING OFF AND SHOWERY NATURE OF PRECIPITATION KEPT
ACCUMULATIONS TO A MINIMUM BELOW 3500 FT WITH JUST BRIEF COATINGS AT
THE PASSES. THAT SAID WILL EXTEND THE ADVISORY UNTIL 10 PM. ALTHOUGH
WE WILL NOT BE DEALING WITH ADVISORY AMOUNTS SOME HEAVIER SNOW BURSTS
MAY OCCUR RESULTING IN QUICK COATINGS OVER THE PASSES DURING THE
EVENING COMMUTE.

MAIN CHANGES WITH THE NEXT SYSTEM TRACKING SOUTHWARD OFF THE COAST
WERE TO DRY THINGS OUT FOR SUNDAY AND GO MORE OPTIMISTIC WITH CLOUD
COVER. ON SATURDAY MOST OF THE MODELS ARE INDICATING SOME
OVERRUNNING LIGHT RAIN DEVELOPING WITH A WEAK WARM FRONT NORTH OF
CAPE MENDOCINO...OTHERWISE JUST ABOUT ALL OF THE ASSOCIATED
PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO STAY OFFSHORE. LEFT SOME CHC POPS
FURTHER SOUTH IN MENDOCINO COUNTY AS SOUTHERLY FLOW MAY ALLOW MORE
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TO CREEP IN...OTHERWISE THE FLOW ACROSS THE REST
OF THE CWA WILL TEND EASTERLY AND OFFSHORE ESPECIALLY BY LATE
SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. MAJOR DIFFERENCES AROSE WITH HE LATEST
RUNS OF THE GFS WRT THE NEXT SYSTEM FOR THE MIDDLE TO LATER PART OF
NEXT WEEK...WITH A MUCH SLOWER AND MORE AMPLIFIED PROGRESSION. GIVEN
THE LACK OF SUPPORT FROM OTHER MODEL GUIDANCE OPTED TO MAKE FEW
CHANGES TO THE EXTENDED FORECAST. RIDGING MAY TRY TO RETURN FOR NEXT
WEEKEND BUT IT IS TOO EARLY TO SAY IF IT WILL BE ENOUGH TO KEEP US
DRY AND FOR HOW LONG THAT MAY LAST.    AAD

&&

.AVIATION...MAINLY VFR CONDS WITH SCT -SHRA. MTN OBSCURATION WITH
SNOW LEVEL AOB 3000 FT. ANOTHER WEAK FRONT APPROACHES THE COAST SAT
AM WITH MORE -RA AND MVFR CIGS...ESPECIALLY IN THE VICINITY OF KCEC.
JCA

&&

.MARINE...LARGE NW SWELL IS PEAKING THIS AFTERNOON AT 17-20 FT AT 16
SEC. THIS SWELL WILL SLOWLY SUBSIDE OVERNIGHT...THEN DIMINISH MORE
RAPIDLY ON SAT. A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BE DROPPING SOUTH JUST
INSIDE OF 130W BRINGING INCREASING SOUTH WINDS BEGINNING SAT AFTN.
AFTER COORDINATING WITH SURROUNDING OFFICES...WE HAVE DECIDED TO GO
WITH THE GFS PLACEMENT OF THE LOW...BUT HAVE LOWERED WIND SPEEDS TO
BELOW GALE FORCE (FOR ZONE 475). AFTER HIGH PRESSURE BRIEFLY MOVES
OVERHEAD ON SUN...SOUTH WINDS WILL ONCE AGAIN BE ON THE INCREASE ON
MON IN ADVANCE OF A POTENT FRONT TO THE WEST. THIS FRONT MAY BE A
SLOW MOVER WITH A PROLONGED PERIOD OF STRONG SOUTH WINDS. MODELS ARE
HINTING AT SOLID GALES...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW STORM FORCE
GUSTS LATE TUE. STEEP SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO ACCOMPANY THE STRONG
WINDS. MODELS DIVERGE QUICKLY BY LATE WED IN REGARDS TO THE
PLACEMENT AND MOVEMENT OF THE FRONT. CONFIDENCE IN THIS PERIOD IS
LOW AND HAVE LEFT THE CURRENT FCST UNCHANGED FOR THIS LATTER PART OF
THE FCST PERIOD. JCA
