AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEDFORD OR
856 PM PST SUN DEC 16 2012

...DANGEROUS TRAVEL CONDITIONS IN MANY PLACES TONIGHT....
...LOW ELEVATION SNOW EXPECTED MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY...

.UPDATE...A MAJOR WINTER/WIND STORM IS WELL UNDERWAY FOR A LARGE
PART OF THE FORECAST AREA THIS EVENING. WE HAD A RELATIVE BREAK IN
THE SNOW OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND EAST SIDE EARLY THIS EVENING, BUT
SNOW HAS PICKED UP AGAIN IN THE MOUNTAINS AND IS STARTING TO
DEVELOP ON THE EAST SIDE. IT WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE THROUGH
LATE EVENING AND THEN REALLY COME DOWN OVERNIGHT AS THE OCCLUDED
FRONT (NOW MOVING ONSHORE) MOVES INLAND. THIS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY
THE MAIN COLD FRONT (CURRENTLY OUT AROUND 128W) TOMORROW. SNOW
WILL BE HEAVY IN THE MOUNTAINS AND PORTIONS OF THE EAST SIDE WITH
STRONG WINDS AND WIDESPREAD BLIZZARD CONDITIONS IN THE CASCADES
FROM ROUGHLY HIGHWAY 140 NORTH TONIGHT. HEAVY SNOW IS ALSO
EXPECTED THROUGH THE NORTHERN KLAMATH AS WELL AS THE REST OF THE
CASCADES AND SISKIYOUS WITH LOCAL BLIZZARD CONDITIONS POSSIBLE IN
THESE LOCATIONS. WIND IS ALSO A MAJOR ISSUE WHERE IT ISN'T SNOWING
WITH HIGH WINDS NOW IMPACTING THE COAST AND THE EAST SIDE
ESPECIALLY NEAR SUMMER LAKE. IT IS NOT A GOOD NIGHT TO TRY TO
TRAVEL ON THE EAST SIDE, THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS, OR EVEN ALONG THE
COAST. THE CURRENT FORECAST AS WELL AS THE WARNINGS AND ADVISORIES
HAVE THIS ALL COVERED, SO AM NOT PLANNING ANY UPDATES TO THE
OVERNIGHT PERIOD. THE ONLY UPDATE THAT MAY BE NEEDED WOULD BE TO
UPGRADE ANY OF THE WINTER STORM WARNINGS TO BLIZZARD WARNINGS IF
CONDITIONS WORSEN MUCH BEYOND WHAT IS CURRENTLY EXPECTED.

THE NEXT PROBLEM IS THE POTENTIAL FOR LOW ELEVATION SNOW TOMORROW
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY AS THE COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON POURS IN
BEHIND THE FRONT. SNOW LEVELS WILL PLUMMET TO AS LOW AS 500 FEET
BY TUESDAY MORNING AND STAY LOW THROUGH WEDNESDAY. LATEST GUIDANCE
SHOWS CONTINUED MOIST ONSHORE FLOW AND AT LEAST TWO UPPER WAVES
MOVING THROUGH WITH COLD ENOUGH AIR IN PLACE TO PRODUCE SNOW DOWN
TO MOST OF THE VALLEY FLOORS. THE FIRST ONE WILL BE EARLY MONDAY
NIGHT FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER TUESDAY MORNING. SNOWFALL LOOKS LIKE IT
WILL REACH AT LEAST ADVISORY CRITERIA ABOVE 500 FEET BUT HIGHER
ELEVATIONS (ABOVE 1500 FEET) AS WELL AS OROGRAPHICALLY FAVORED
AREAS MAY BE WELL UP INTO WARNING CRITERIA. AM PLANNING TO ADJUST
THE CURRENT WEST SIDE ADVISORY DOWN TO 500 FEET IN ELEVATION AND
ISSUE A WINTER STORM WATCH FOR ELEVATIONS ABOVE 1500 FEET FOR
MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. -WRIGHT

&&

.AVIATION...A VERY STRONG OCCLUDING FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
AREA TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY MORNING. IN ITS WAKE THERE WILL BE A
COLD AIR MASS WITH NUMEROUS SNOW SHOWERS THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT.

LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR WILL PERSIST IN WEST SIDE VALLEYS THIS
EVENING WITH STRONG SOUTHWEST WINDS ALOFT (50 TO 70 KT BELOW 10K
FT MSL) AND WEAKER WINDS AT THE VALLEY FLOOR. THESE STRONG WINDS
WILL ALSO CAUSE TURBULENCE ON APPROACHES AND DEPARTURES. SURFACE
WINDS WILL BE STRONGEST ON THE EAST SIDE WITH GUSTS OF 40 TO 60 KT
OVERNIGHT.

PRECIPITATION WILL BE MODERATE TO LOCALLY HEAVY AND SOUTHERLY
WINDS WILL REMAIN VERY STRONG OVERNIGHT. WINDS WILL DIMINISH
SLIGHTLY ON MONDAY. THE SNOW LEVEL NEAR 4000 FEET MSL WILL FALL TO
AROUND 2500 FEET MSL OVERNIGHT THEN DOWN TO 1500 FEET MSL BY THE
END OF MONDAY AFTERNOON. MOUNTAINS WILL REMAIN OBSCURED THROUGH
MONDAY AFTERNOON WITH WIDESPREAD MVFR VISIBILITIES AND CEILINGS.
BUT ALSO OCCASIONAL IFR WITH LOW CEILINGS...MAINLY THROUGH 18Z
MONDAY, AND DRIFTING OF SNOW REDUCING VISIBILITIES TO IFR...MAINLY
EAST OF THE CASCADES. DW

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 359 PM PST SUN DEC 16 2012/

DISCUSSION...WEATHER PATTERN REMAINS ACTIVE FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS
WITH SEVERAL IMPACTS INCLUDING STRONG WINDS AT THE COAST...CASCADES
AND EAST OF THE CASCADES AND MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW...ESPECIALLY FOR
THE CASCADES AND PARTS OF THE SISKIYOUS. THESE IMPACTS ARE SERIOUS
AND IT'S STRONGLY RECOMMENDED ANYONE PLANING TO TRAVEL OR
PARTICIPATE ON OUTDOOR RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES STAY TUNED FOR THE
LATEST UPDATES AND PREPARE FOR HAZARDOUS WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE
DETAILS ON EACH IMPACT ARE NOTED BELOW.

WINDS ARE CRANKING UP ALONG THE COAST AS STRONG LOW PRESSURE
CENTERED NEAR NEAR 47N AND 130W CONTINUES TO STRENGTHEN. STRONG
WINDS CONTINUE AT THE COAST THROUGH THIS EVENING...THEN GRADUALLY
DECREASING TONIGHT. ALONG AND EAST OF THE CASCADES...WINDS ARE
ALREADY INCREASING AND THEY ARE EXPECTED TO BE STRONGEST TONIGHT
THROUGH MONDAY MORNING BEFORE GRADUALLY DECREASING MONDAY AFTERNOON.
THE COMBINATION OF WINDS AND SNOW WILL CAUSE BLOWING SNOW WITH
REDUCED VISIBILITIES AND OCCASIONAL BLIZZARD CONDITIONS ESPECIALLY
OVER THE NORTHERN CASCADES. WINDS IN THESE AREAS ARE EXPECTED TO
DECREASE MONDAY AFTERNOON AS THE SURFACE LOW MOVES INLAND AND
WEAKENS.

MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW IS THE NEXT IMPACT...ESPECIALLY FOR THE
CASCADES AND SISKIYOUS WHERE WE COULD SEE SNOW RATES OF AN INCH OR
MORE PER HOUR LATE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH MONDAY MORNING. MODERATE
TO HEAVY SNOW IS ALSO A CONCERN FOR AREAS NEAR CHILOQUIN AND HIGHER
TERRAIN IN NORTHERN KLAMATH COUNTY. MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW WILL ALSO
IMPACT THE MOUNT SHASTA AREA INCLUDING I-5 NEAR DUNSMUIR...STATE
HIGHWAY 89 AND US HIGHWAY 97 NEAR MOUNT HEBRON. SNOWFALL
ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED TO BE LESS AROUND KLAMATH FALLS...BUT THE
COMBINATION OF SNOW AND WIND WILL RESULT IN BLOWING AND DRIFTING
SNOW AND OCCASIONAL REDUCTION IN VISIBILITY. SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS
FOR THE ABOVE MENTION AREAS COULD VARY DEPENDING ON HOW FAST AND HOW
LONG SNOW LEVELS COME UP. MODELS SUGGEST THEY WILL COME UP FOR A
BRIEF TIME LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...THEN START TO LOWER
LATE TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY. SNOW LEVELS CONTINUE TO LOWER MONDAY
NIGHT AND DROP NEAR OR AT THE VALLEY FLOORS EARLY TUESDAY MORNING.
AT THE COAST WE COULD SEE A RAIN/WET SNOW MIX.

HERE IS A SYNOPSIS FROM TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...A
DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE CENTERED NEAR 47N/130W WILL STRENGTHEN AND
MOVE INTO NORTHWEST WASHINGTON LATE TONIGHT. THIS WILL RESULT IN
STRONG WINDS OVER THE MARINE WATERS...COAST...CASCADES AND HIGHER
TERRAIN EAST OF THE CASCADES. LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE INLAND OVER
NORTHWEST WASHINGTON EARLY MONDAY MORNING. AT THE SAME TIME A COLD
FRONT WILL PUSH SOUTHEAST OVER THE FORECAST AREA WITH SNOW LEVELS
DROPPING RAPIDLY MONDAY MORNING AND AFTERNOON. A COLD AIRMASS
FOLLOWS MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY WITH POST FRONTAL SHOWERS AND
SNOW LEVELS LOWERING TO THE VALLEY FLOOR. MODELS SUGGEST WE COULD
CATCH A BRIEF BREAK IN THE WEATHER TUESDAY EVENING. THE MODELS ARE
IN SIMILAR AGREEMENT SHOWING ANOTHER WARM FRONT APPROACHING THE
OREGON COAST EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. WE COULD BE FACED WITH ANOTHER
SITUATION IN WHICH COLD AIR GETS TRAPPED IN THE VALLEYS AT THE TIME
PRECIPITATION ARRIVES. SO WE COULD BE DEALING WITH MORE ACCUMULATING
SNOW FOR THE VALLEY FLOORS WEDNESDAY MORNING. A ANOTHER STRONG FRONT
ARRIVES WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON BRINGING ANOTHER ROUND OF MODERATE TO
HEAVY PRECIPITATION AND STRONG WINDS WHICH COULD LAST INTO WEDNESDAY
NIGHT. -PETRUCELLI

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...AN ACTIVE PATTERN WILL
CONTINUE OVER THE AREA WITH A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS THE
AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY. THIS IS FOLLOWED BY SEVERAL
ADDITIONAL DISTURBANCES FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AS SHORTWAVES MOVES
AROUND THE BASE OF A LARGE TROUGH OFF THE PACNW COAST.  ON
SUNDAY...THE UPPER TROUGH OFF THE COAST MAY BEGIN TO SHIFT INLAND
BRINGING MORE UNSETTLED WEATHER

THE STRONG COLD FRONT WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY IS ASSOCIATED
WITH GOOD MOISTURE AND A STRONG WESTERLY JET IN THE UPPER LEVELS.
ALSO 700 MB WINDS ARE SOUTHWEST WINDS AT 70 TO 80 KT AS THE FRONT
MOVES INTO THE AREA. THIS STORM IS EXPECTED TO BRING A PERIOD OF
HEAVY TO MODERATE RAIN AND SNOW TO THE AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND
THURSDAY ALONG WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR STRONG AND GUSTY WINDS OVER
THE MOUNTAINS AND INTO THE SHASTA VALLEY AND SUMMER LAKE AREAS. SNOW
LEVELS DURING THIS TIME ARE FORECAST AROUND 2000 TO 2500 FEET...AND
POSSIBLY LOWER. THESE LOW SNOW LEVELS COMBINED WITH THE POTENTIAL
FOR HEAVY PRECIPITATION RATES...MAY BRING MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS TO VALLEYS...INCLUDING IN SOME VALLEY LOCATIONS WEST
OF THE CASCADES. ALSO THE GFS SHOW WEAK INSTABILITY OVER THE COASTAL
WATERS AND NEAR THE COAST AHEAD OF THE FRONT WHICH MAY SUPPORT A
SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS. THE DGEX MODEL SHOWED LESS
INSTABILITY SO HAVE KEPT MENTION OF THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE COASTAL
WATERS AND COAST OUT OF THE FORECAST FOR NOW.

AS ADDITIONAL SHORTWAVES MOVE AROUND THE UPPER TROUGH AND INTO THE
AREA THURSDAY EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY EXPECT ADDITIONAL CHANCES FOR
RAIN AND SNOW. SNOW LEVELS ARE EXPECTED TO BE AROUND 2000 FEET
THURSDAY EVENING GRADUALLY RISING TO 3000 FEET LATE FRIDAY.

BY SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...THE MODEL SOLUTIONS BEGIN SHOW SIGNIFICANT
DIFFERENCES AND THERE IS LOWER CONFIDENCE IN THE FORECAST FOR THIS
PERIOD. BOTH MODELS SEND A FRONT INTO THE PACNW EARLY
SATURDAY...BRINGING MORE RAIN AND SNOW TO THE AREA...BUT DIFFER ON
HOW QUICKLY THE TROUGH WILL SHIFT INLAND SUNDAY INTO MONDAY. THE GFS
KEEPS THE UPPER TROUGH JUST OFF THE PACNW AND CONTINUES TO SEND
STORMS INTO THE AREA SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...THEN SHOWS THE UPPER
TROUGH GRADUALLY SHIFTING INLAND MONDAY.  THE ECMWF SHOWS A STRONG
SHORTWAVE MOVING AROUND THE TROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT AND INTO NORTHERN
AND CENTRAL CALIFORNIA EARLY SUNDAY...THEN SHIFTS THE TROUGH INLAND
ON SUNDAY. HAVE KEPT THE CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION HIGH THROUGH THE
PERIOD WITH SNOW LEVELS IN THE 3000 TO 4000 FT RANGE
SATURDAY...POSSIBLY LOWERING ON SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT.

BEHIND THE TROUGH...RIDGING MAY BUILD INTO THE AREA TOWARDS
CHRISTMAS...HOWEVER THE ENSEMBLE SOLUTIONS ARE MIXED WITH SOME
ENSEMBLE MEMBERS SHOWING THE UPPER TROUGH REMAINING OVER THE REGION
ON MONDAY INTO TUESDAY SO NO CLEAR PATTERN IS EVIDENT AT THIS TIME.
