AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PENDLETON OR
314 PM PST WED JAN 12 2011

UPDATED WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES SECTION

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...THE FIRST SYSTEM HAS
LARGELY DEPARTED THE AREA...WHILE THE NEXT SYSTEM CONTINUES TO
DEVELOP OFFSHORE. CURRENTLY WEST FLOW ACROSS THE AREA ALOFT IS
CONTINUING TO PRODUCE SLOP OVER PRECIP ALONG THE CASCADE CREST INTO
THE CASCADED EAST SLOPES...ESPECIALLY OVER WASHINGTON. SNOW LEVEL
HAVE RISEN OVER THE CASCADES TO BETWEEN 3500 FEET (WASHINGTON) AND
4500 FEET (OREGON). SOME EAST SLOPE VALLEYS IN WASHINGTON CONTINUE
TO HAVE TEMPS IN THE MID 20S TO NEAR 30 DEGREES. THUS SOME OF THESE
VALLEYS WILL SEE A MIX OF LIGHT FREEZING RAIN AND SNOW. EVENTUALLY
THESE TEMPS WILL RISE ABOVE FREEZING TONIGHT...ENDING THE THREAT OF
SNOW AND FREEZING RAIN. TEMPS ALSO CONTINUE TO BE NEAR FREEZING IN
THE COLUMBIA RIVER GORGE...KITTITAS VALLEY...YAKIMA VALLEY AND THE
LOWER COLUMBIA BASIN IN BOTH WASHINGTON AND OREGON. THESE AREAS WILL
ALSO CONTINUE TO WARM THIS EVENING...WITH THE TEMPS IN THE KITTITAS
AND YAKIMA VALLEYS BEING THE LAST TO MIX. SOME SPOTTY LIGHT FREEZING
RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE AREAS THIS EVENING...WITH THE FREEZING
RAIN THREAT POSSIBLY LINGERING IN KITTITAS COUNTY OVERNIGHT. AS SUCH
WILL LOWER ALL CURRENT ADVISORIES FOR MIXED WINTER WEATHER
CONDITIONS AS THE FREEZING RAIN THREAT WILL BE SPOTTY AT THE MOST
THIS EVENING...THEN TEMPS SHOULD RISE ABOVE FREEZING BY MIDNIGHT.
WILL ALSO CHANGE THE CURRENT WINTER STORM WARNINGS OVER THE
WASHINGTON CASCADE EAST SLOPES TO WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR
FREEZING PRECIP. WILL CANCEL THE WINTER STORM WARNING IN THE
KITTITAS VALLEY AS PRECIP WILL BE SPOTTY AND LIGHT THIS EVENING.
SNOW LEVELS CONTINUE TO SLOWLY RISE IN THE BLUE MOUNTAINS. THEY
APPEAR TO BE NEARING 3500 FEET AT THE MOMENT. PRECIP HAS BEEN
LIMITED TODAY AND WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED MUCH SNOW TO THIS POINT. THE
SNOW LEVELS LOOK TO RISE THROUGH THE NIGHT REACHING AT LEAST 4500 IF
NOT 5000 FEET BY DAYBREAK THURSDAY. CURRENT PRECIP ESTIMATES RESULT
IN SNOW AMOUNTS OF ONLY 3 TO 6 INCHES OVERNIGHT ABOVE 4500-5000 FEET
WHICH IS BORDERLINE FOR ADVISORY SNOW. WILL CONTINUE THE CURRENT
ADVISORY AS IS DUE THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME UPSLOPE SNOW DEVELOPMENT.
WINDS HAVE SETTLED DOWN...BUT WILL REMAIN AT ADVISORY LEVELS OVER
THE SOUTHERN GRANDE RONDE VALLEY. THUS WILL DOWNGRADE THE WARNING IN
THE GRANDE RONDE VALLEY TO AN ADVISORY WHILE DROPPING THE OTHER
ADVISORIES.

THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD WILL SEE SNOW LEVELS RISE ABOVE 5500
FEET. THUS SYSTEMS THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT WILL PRODUCE RAIN
OVER OUR POPULATED AREAS. 90

.LONG TERM...FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...MODELS ARE IN AGREEMENT
IN KEEPING A FLAT RIDGE OFFSHORE FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND. OUR
AREA WILL BE ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE RIDGE IN A MOIST AND GENERALLY
NORTHWEST FLOW WITH SYSTEMS RIDING OVER THE TOP OF THE RIDGE. ONE
SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA FRIDAY WITH A CHANCE OF RAIN THROUGH
THE EVENING BEFORE TAPERING OFF OVERNIGHT. LOWER ELEVATIONS SHOULD
RECEIVE UP TO ONE QUARTER OF AN INCH OF PRECIPITATION WITH UP TO TWO
THIRDS OF AN INCH IN THE MOUNTAINS. SNOW WILL BE CONFINED TO THE
HIGHER MOUNTAINS AS SNOW LEVELS REMAIN ABOVE 5000 FEET. THE NEXT
SYSTEM WILL ARRIVE LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON OR EVENING DEPENDING ON
THE MODEL CONSULTED. THIS SYSTEM LOOKS TO HAVE A BETTER MOISTURE TAP
SO BELIEVE IT WILL HAVE HIGHER PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS THAN THE FRIDAY
SYSTEM. RAIN WILL ONCE AGAIN SPREAD ACROSS THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT
AND SUNDAY BEFORE TAPERING OFF SUNDAY NIGHT. SNOW LEVELS WILL
CONTINUE TO BE AROUND 5000 FEET. THIS SECOND SYSTEM WILL BE
ACCOMPANIED BY BREEZY CONDITIONS. TEMPERATURES THROUGH THESE TWO
SYSTEMS WILL REMAIN VERY MILD WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 40S TO LOWER 50S
AND 40S IN THE MOUNTAINS. LOWS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE 30S WITH
MOST LOWER ELEVATION LOCATIONS REMAINING ABOVE FREEZING. PERRY

MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...NORTHWESTERLY UPSLOPE FLOW WILL ALLOW
PRECIPITATION TO CONTINUE ON MONDAY...ESPECIALLY IN THE MOUNTAINS.
HOWEVER...SOUTHWESTERLY LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES IN THE
MID 30S TO 40S...MAKING RAIN THE PRIMARY P-TYPE. SNOW LEVELS WILL
THEN BEGIN TO FALL ON MONDAY NIGHT AS A SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVES INTO
THE AREA. THIS WAVE WILL CONSEQUENTLY INCREASE PRECIPITATION CHANCES
ACROSS THE REGION ON TUESDAY...POSSIBLY CAUSING MODERATE SNOW IN THE
MOUNTAINS OF NORTHEAST OREGON AND SOUTHEAST WASHINGTON. THE FLOW
WILL TURN MORE NORTHERLY ON WEDNESDAY AS THE TROUGH EXITS THE AREA
AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST. ALTHOUGH SOME SHOWERS MAY
PERSIST...MUCH DRIER AND SLIGHTLY COOLER CONDITIONS CAN BE
EXPECTED.  TRIMARCO

&&

.AVIATION...PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...18Z TAFS...TEMPERATURES CONTINUE
TO RISE AS A WARM FRONT CROSSES THE AREA. KRDM...KBDN AND KPDT HAVE
WARMED TO ABOVE FREEZING AS WINDS HAVE SHIFTED TO THE SOUTH. POCKETS
OF COLD AIR REMAIN BELOW 1500-2000 FEET AFFECTING ALL OTHER TAF
LOCATIONS BUT SHOULD MIX OUT AND WARM TO ABOVE FREEZING DURING THE
COURSE OF TODAY. HAVE KEPT MENTION OF FZRA AT KDLS...KYKM...KPSC AND
KALW FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS MAINLY TO HIGHLIGHT THE THREAT BUT
SHOWER ACTIVITY IS IN A LULL FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS SO LITTLE
ACTUAL -FZRA ACCUMULATION IS ANTICIPATED. VFR AND MVFR CEILINGS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON BEFORE THE NEXT SYSTEM MOVES INTO
THE AREA WITH RAIN...HEAVY AT TIMES ACROSS THE AREA AFTER 03Z. VFR
AND MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH
TOMORROW MORNING. SURFACE WINDS WILL BE AT 10 TO 20 KTS WITH GUSTS
TO 30 KTS AT KRDM...KPDT AND KALW THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING. WINDS
WILL BE STRONGER ALONG THE SLOPES OF THE BLUE MOUNTAINS IN THE
VICINITY OF KPDT AND KALW. OTHERWISE WINDS WILL BE UNDER 15 KTS AT
ALL TAF LOCATIONS THROUGH TOMORROW MORNING. PERRY

&&

.HYDROLOGY...THE SERIES OF WET SYSTEMS WILL CONTINUE OVER THE REGION
WITH SNOW LEVELS RISING TO BETWEEN 5000-6000 FEET OVERNIGHT. WATER
VAPOR SHOWS A FAIRLY GOOD STREAM OF MOISTURE WITH SOME PERIODS OF
HEAVY RAIN OVER THE BLUE MOUNTAINS ON THURSDAY AND CONTINUED
PRECIPITATION ALONG THE CREST OF WASHINGTON CASCADES THROUGH
THURSDAY NIGHT. WILL CONTINUE FLOOD WATCH FOR THESE AREAS AS
COMBINATION OF RAIN AND SNOWMELT WILL TRIGGER SIGNIFICANT RISES ON
RIVERS AND STREAMS. ML
