DOWNSTREAM OF ITS APPROACH.

LONG TERM...

WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY

ACTIVE PATTERN WILL CONTINUE IN THE LONG TERM PERIOD AS A POTENT
NORTHERN PAC UPPER JET ADVECTS INTO THE WESTERN CONUS...SUPPORTING
MASSIVE HEIGHT FALLS INTO THE PAC NW. ANOTHER PLAYER WILL BE THE SE
CANADIAN NEGATIVE HEIGHT ANOMALY...WHICH WILL LIKELY HAVE AN IMPACT
ON LOCAL MID LEVEL FLOW BY LATE WEEK. FORECAST MODELS AGREE WELL
WITH SYNOPTIC DETAILS THROUGH DAY 5. HOWEVER...DETERMINISTIC MODELS
BEGIN TO DIVERGE ON THE HANDLING OF THE NORTHERN PAC UPPER
TROUGH...WITH SUBSTANTIAL DIFFERENCES NOTED AMONG MOST SOLUTIONS PER
FLOW AND HEIGHT DETAILS ACROSS THE ENTIRE NORTHERN PAC. THIS HAS
SUPPORTED VAST RUN-RUN DISCONTINUITY ESP IN THE GFS PER LOCAL FLOW
DETAILS...LENDING TO LOW CONFIDENCE IN THIS PERIOD. THE CURRENT
PREFERENCE IS TOWARD FLATTER FLOW IN THE DIRECTION OF THE ECMWF AND
UKMET. TYPICALLY...LONG LATITUDINAL FLOW OF THIS NATURE WOULD
SUPPORT A MASSIVE MERIDONAL WEST NOAM RIDGE WITH EASTERN NOAM
TROUGHING. HOWEVER...LACK OF APPRECIABLE NORTHERN ATLANTIC RIDGING
IS ALLOWING FOR DISPLACEMENT OF THE EASTERN CANADIAN VORTEX TO THE
EAST...SUPPORTING MORE PROGRESSIVE FLOW AND NORTHERN STREAM
DOMINANCE IN THE CONUS. WILL TREND IN THIS DIRECTION.

WED-THUR...POTENT MID LEVEL IMPULSE WILL ADVECT EAST AND INTERACT
WITH A STATIONARY FRONT IN THE REGION...SUPPORTING ROUNDS OF
SHRA/TS. RETAINED HIGHER POPS IN THIS PERIOD...WITH AN INCREASE IN
NUMBERS WED GIVEN STRONGEST SIGNALS FOR MID LEVEL HEIGHT FALLS
INTO REGION IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN ASSOCIATED SFC REFLECTION. A
PERIOD OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN CERTAINLY LOOKS POSSIBLE GIVEN
PROGGED PW VALUES WELL IN EXCESS OF AN INCH WITH AN OPEN GOMEX TO
THE SOUTH OF THE STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY. HOWEVER...CONVECTIVE
INFLUENCES /MCV/MCS/ MAY OUTWEIGH SYNOPTIC FORCING AT TIMES. DID OPT
FOR COOLER TEMPS THUR GIVEN NORTHERLY FLOW WITH AMPLE LINGERING
CLOUD COVER.

FRI-SUN...OPTED FOR DRYING FRI...WITH POPS RETURNING SAT PER
INCREASING SIGNALS FOR A MID LEVEL IMPULSE OT EJECT OUT OF THE
MASSIVE NEGATIVE HEIGHT ANOMALY OVER THE WESTERN CONUS. OPTED TO
RESIDE CLOSE TO CLIMO TEMPS ESP SUNDAY GIVEN GROWING FLOW
UNCERTAINTY. MUCH TO BE RESOLVED OVER THE PAC BEFORE FLOW DETAILS
ARE ESTABLISHED DOWNSTREAM. JUST YESTERDAY MOST FORECAST MODELS WERE
OPTING FOR A CLOSED CUT OFF UPPER TROUGH INTO THE GREAT
LAKES...WHICH DEMONSTRATES THE COMPLEXITY OF THE EXPECTED UPSTREAM
FLOW. RETAINED A DRY FORECAST SUN GIVEN HIGHLY UNCERTAIN FLOW.
HOWEVER...IF FAST UPPER FLOW RESIDES OVER THE REGION AS IN ECMWF
PROGS...A WET UNSETTLED PERIOD WOULD CERTAINLY BE POSSIBLE.
