AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
1050 AM PST MON FEB 20 2012

.UPDATED AVIATION...AS OF 10:47 AM PST MONDAY...SEE BELOW.

.DISCUSSION...AS OF 8:40 AM PST MONDAY...MID TO HIGH CLOUDS
CONTINUE TO STREAM ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS MORNING AS LOW
PRESSURE SLIDES TO THE EAST AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE
WEST. THE IR SATELLITE IMAGE IS SHOWING HIGH CLOUDS MOVING IN FROM
THE NORTH BUT THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO RETURNS BEING DETECTED FROM
KMUX DOPPLER RADAR. THE 1200Z KOAK SOUNDING WAS SATURATED THROUGH
12000 FEET AND NAM BUFR MODEL RUN HAS INITIALIZED WELL WITH THIS
SOUNDING. ACCORDING TO THE NAM BUFR THE ATMOSPHERE WILL DRY OUT
SUFFICIENTLY ENOUGH TO RULE OUT ANY FURTHER PRECIPITATION BY
1800Z. THEREFORE...HAVE REDUCED POPS THIS MORNING AND WILL
MAINTAIN A DRY FORECAST BEYOND 1800Z. FOR THE TIME BEING WILL
LEAVE POPS IN THE NORTH BAY AREA FOR THIS EVENING UNTIL I REASSESS
THE SITUATION WITH NEWER MODEL RUNS.

A WARM UP REMAINS IN STORE FOR THE CENTRAL COAST BEGINNING
TOMORROW. THE 0000Z ECMWF AND 1200Z GFS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC AND CALIFORNIA.
BOTH MODELS MAINTAIN THIS RIDGE THROUGH AT LEAST THURSDAY. DRY
OFFSHORE WINDS SET UP TUESDAY AND 850 MB TEMPERATURES WARM TO 10
TO 13 DEGREES CELSIUS. THIS TRANSLATES INTO SURFACE TEMPERATURES
IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S WITH FURTHER WARMING INTO THE LOWER
TO MID 70S WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. WINDS WILL BE ORIENTED PROPERLY
TO RESULT IN DOWN SLOPE WARMING IN THE NORTH BAY VALLEYS TO
SUPPORT UPPER 70S WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...A COOLING TREND SHOULD DEVELOP BY SATURDAY
AS THE RIDGE WEAKENS AND ONSHORE WINDS RETURN. A COLD TROUGH WILL
DROP DOWN BY NEXT SUNDAY OR MONDAY WITH A RETURN TO COOLER THAN
NORMAL TEMPERATURES. QUESTION THEN BECOMES PRECIP CHANCES. THE GFS
MODEL KEEPS THE TROUGH AXIS INLAND WHILE THE ECMWF HAS THE TROUGH
AXIS FARTHER WEST. FOR NOW WILL SHOW A CHANCE OF SHOWERS ABOUT ONE
WEEK FROM NOW. WILL BE VERY INTERESTING TO SEE WHERE THE TROUGH
SETS UP IN THE EXTENDED FORECAST AS NORTHERN CALIFORNIA REALLY
NEEDS TO TRANSITION TO A WET CYCLE. THE END OF FEBRUARY IS NOW IN
SIGHT WITH SEASONAL AND MONTHLY RAIN DEFICITS NOW LIKELY WAY TOO
BIG TO MAKE UP. ANY LATE SEASON RAIN AND MOUNTAIN SNOW PACK WILL
CONTINUE TO BE WELCOME AS THE CALENDER TURNS TO MARCH.

&&

.AVIATION...AS OF 10:47 AM PST MONDAY...DID A QUICK UPDATE FOR
KSFO. IT APPEARS THE MID-HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS ARE HELPING TO SCATTER
OUT LOW DECKS OVER THE BAY. THEREFORE...HAVE AMENDED KSFO WITH A
TEMPO FOR LOW CIGS THROUGH 22Z. STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY AS THERE ARE
POCKETS OF CIGS AROUND SF BAY NEAR 2100 FEET.

PREVIOUS...TRICKY THIS MORNING AS A WEAK SYSTEM CONTINUES TO PUSH
THROUGH THE REGION WITH AMPLE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND CIGS. MODEL
GUIDANCE SUGGESTS ALL DAY EVENT WITH POSS SCT LATE THIS
AFTERNOON/EVENING FOR A FEW HOURS. HOWEVER...LATEST SATELLITE
TELLS TWO DIFFERENT STORIES...POCKETS OF CLEARING WITH AMPLE
UPSTREAM CLOUDS. THAT BEING SAID...DECIDED TO GO MORE PESSIMISTIC
AND WILL KEEP CIGS THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. IF CIG DO SCT/CLR LATER
TODAY DO EXPECT A RETURN OF CIGS TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW MORNING.
OVERALL CONF IS LOW- MEDIUM

VICINITY OF KSFO...CIGS AROUND 2100 FEET CONTINUE TO PLAGUE THE
BAY AREA THIS MORNING. LATEST TAFS WILL KEEP THESE LOWERED CIGS
THROUGH 21-22Z. WILL HAVE TO WATCH THE RECENT SCT IN THE CENTER
PART OF SF BAY AND IF IT TRANSITIONS OVER KSFO. WILL WATCH CLOSELY
AND AMEND IF NEEDED. EXPECT CIGS TO RETURN TONIGHT.

KSFO BRIDGE APPROACH....PER RECENT SATELLITE APPROACH ZONE MAY SEE
SEVERAL HOURS OF ABOVE 2100 FEET THIS MORNING WITH BKN-OVC CIGS.

MONTEREY BAY AREA TERMINALS...MVFR CIGS EXPECT FOR MUCH OF THE FORECAST.

.MTR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
     .TDAY...NONE.
