Area forecast discussion, Dec 15, 10:08 PM PST, 4 hours 15 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
1008 PM PST SAT DEC 15 2012
.DISCUSSION...AS OF 9:00 PM PST SATURDAY...A WEAK WEATHER SYSTEM
PRODUCED WIDESPREAD LIGHT RAIN ACROSS OUR REGION THIS AFTERNOON.
RAINFALL AMOUNTS WERE GENERALLY ON THE ORDER OF 0.10 TO 0.20.
THE 00Z OAK SOUNDING SHOWS WARM ADVECTION IN THE LOWER 8K FEET OF
THE ATMOSPHERE AND THIS IS WHAT PRODUCED OUR AFTERNOON RAIN. THAT
WARM ADVECTION HAS SINCE DIMINISHED AND RAINFALL HAS MOSTLY ENDED
ACROSS THE AREA. A FORECAST UPDATE WAS COMPLETED EARLIER TO REDUCE
POPS OVERNIGHT AND INTO SUNDAY...MAINLY FOR INLAND AREAS. THE
MODELS INDICATE THAT WARM ADVECTION WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE LATE
TONIGHT AND INTO SUNDAY...ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTH BAY. SO EXPECT
RAIN CHANCES TO GRADUAL INCREASE IN THE NORTH BAY OVER THE NEXT
12-18 HOURS. ALSO...LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY
ONSHORE TONIGHT AND SUNDAY...WHICH WILL MEAN RAIN CHANCES
WILL CONTINUE IN MOST COASTAL MOUNTAIN RANGES AS WELL.
PRECIP WILL BE ENHANCED IN THE NORTH BAY ON SUNDAY NIGHT AS A
LONGWAVE UPPER TROUGH IN THE GULF OF ALASKA BEGINS TO DEEPEN OFF
THE WEST COAST. RAIN WILL PRESS SOUTH THROUGH THE REST OF THE
FORECAST AREA FROM LATE SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH EARLY MONDAY
AFTERNOON. THIS SUNDAY NIGHT/MONDAY SYSTEM LOOKS TO BE A WETTER
THAN THE ONE THAT CAME THROUGH TODAY. THE 00Z NAM FORECASTS
BETWEEN A HALF INCH AND AN INCH OF RAIN IN THE NORTH BAY AND
GENERALLY A HALF INCH OR LESS ELSEWHERE.
THE UPPER TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO DIG SOUTH INTO CALIFORNIA ON MONDAY
NIGHT AND TUESDAY. MOST OF THE SIGNIFICANT MOISTURE WILL BY THEN
BE WELL SOUTH OF OUR AREA AND SO ONLY SCATTERED SHOWERS ARE
EXPECTED ON MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY. SNOW LEVELS COULD DROP AS
LOW AS 2000 FEET BY TUESDAY MORNING BUT BY THEN THERE WILL LIKELY
BE ONLY ENOUGH AVAILABLE MOISTURE TO PRODUCE JUST A DUSTING OF
SNOW IN THE HILLS. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS COULD ALSO DEVELOP LATE
MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY...BUT PROBABLY ONLY OVER THE COASTAL
WATERS WHERE INSTABILITY WILL BE GREATEST.
SKIES WILL CLEAR ON TUESDAY NIGHT AND THIS WILL SET THE STAGE FOR
A COLD NIGHT. WIDESPREAD FROST IS LIKELY IN THE INTERIOR VALLEYS
LATE TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING.
THE MODELS AGREE THAT OUR AREA WILL EXPERIENCE ONE DAY OF DRY
WEATHER ON WEDNESDAY BEFORE THE NEXT SYSTEM DROPS IN FROM THE
NORTHWEST. RAIN COULD BEGIN IN THE NORTH BAY AS EARLY AS LATE
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. IT CURRENTLY APPEARS THAT RAIN WON'T SPREAD
SOUTH ACROSS THE REST OF OUR FORECAST AREA UNTIL THURSDAY AND
THURSDAY NIGHT. THE THURSDAY SYSTEM WILL CONTAIN MORE MOISTURE AND
MAY DROP AS MUCH AS 2 INCHES OR MORE IN THE NORTH BAY MOUNTAINS.
THE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS KEEP THE LONGWAVE TROUGH AXIS OFF THE WEST
COAST THROUGH THE END OF NEXT WEEK AND ONWARD THROUGH AT LEAST
CHRISTMAS EVE. THIS WOULD RESULT IN ADDITIONAL SIGNIFICANT
RAINFALL FROM LATE NEXT WEEK INTO THE EARLY PART OF CHRISTMAS
WEEK.
&&
.AVIATION...AS OF 10:00 PM PST SATURDAY...LIGHT RAIN HAS MOVED OUT
OF THE AREA. VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TONIGHT EXCEPT AT STS
WHERE IFR CIGS AND VSBYS DOWN TO 1/2 MILE ARE POSSIBLE. WARM
ADVECTION MOISTURE WILL BRING IN LOWER CIGS SUNDAY MORNING WITH
CONDITIONS DETERIORATING TO MVFR.
VICINITY OF KSFO...VFR WITH CIGS ABOVE 4000 FEET TONIGHT. SOUTHEAST
WINDS AROUND 10 KTS PERSISTING THROUGH SUNDAY. CIGS LOWERING TO
MVFR CONDITIONS BY 14-15Z.
KSFO BRIDGE APPROACH...SIMILAR TO KSFO.
MONTEREY BAY AREA TERMINALS...VFR WITH CIGS ABOVE 4000 FEET TONIGHT.
CIGS LOWERING TO MVFR RANGE DURING THE DAY SUNDAY.
