Area forecast discussion, Mar 20, 1:49 PM PDT, 58 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
149 PM PDT THU MAR 20 2014
.SYNOPSIS...MOSTLY SUNNY AND WARM CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST THROUGH
THE WEEKEND AS HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO DOMINATE THE WEATHER
ACROSS THE REGION. THE NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN IS NOT UNTIL THE MIDDLE
OF NEXT WEEK.
&&
.DISCUSSION...AS OF 01:45 PM PDT THURSDAY...RELATIVELY QUIET WEATHER
THROUGH THE WEEKEND WITH RAIN CHANCES RETURNING NEXT WEEK.
MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES PREVAIL ACROSS THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON WITH
ONLY A FEW HIGH CLOUDS PRESENT. A WEAK SHORTWAVE TROUGH/VORT MAX
CONTINUES TO APPROACH THE CENTRAL COAST THIS AFTERNOON...WHICH MAY
PRODUCE A FEW AFTERNOON CU OVER THE SOUTHERN CWA. OTHERWISE...A
PLEASANT DAY AROUND THE REGION WITH MANY LOCATIONS A FEW DEGREES
ABOVE NORMAL.
SHORT TERM(TONIGHT-SUNDAY)...
THROUGH THE WEEKEND HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE REGION AS
THE VORT MAX EXITS TO THE EAST. THE BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE WILL
RESULT IN A SLIGHT WARMING TREND...MOST NOTABLY AWAY FROM THE
COAST. THE LACK OF OFFSHORE FLOW AND INCREASED ONSHORE FLOW WILL
ALSO ALLOW FOR THE RETURN OF STRATUS. THEREFORE...ADDED
NIGHT/MORNING LOW CLOUDS AND FOG THE NEXT FEW NIGHTS ALONG THE
COAST AND LOCALLY INLAND. GIVEN THE HIGH PRESSURE OVERHEAD THE
MARINE LAYER WILL LIKELY BE COMPRESSED WITH PATCHY DRIZZLE POSSIBLE
ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST. EXPECT THE STRATUS TO ROLL BACK TO THE
COASTLINE EACH AFTERNOON. FRIDAY WILL BE SLIGHTLY COOLER THAN
TODAY ...BUT AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS SUNDAY WILL LIKELY BE THE WARMEST
DAY WITH 60S ALONG THE COAST AND 70S TO LOWER 80S INLAND.
LONG TERM(MONDAY-THURSDAY)...
VERY LITTLE CHANGE IN THE FORECAST FOR THE LONG TERM. MODELS
CONTINUE TO SHOW A PATTERN SHIFT THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK WITH A
CHANCE FOR RAIN. THE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO BREAK DOWN
ON MONDAY AS A LOW MOVES INTO THE PAC NW. THE APPROACHING LOW WILL
EVENTUALLY WILL DRAG A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE REGION TUESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY. THERE ARE SOME MINOR DIFFERENCES WITH TIMING NEXT
WEEK...BUT RAIN CHANCES WILL INCREASE INITIALLY OVER THE NORTH BAY
ON TUESDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING. HOW FAR SOUTH THE RAIN WILL ACTUALLY
MAKE IT IS STILL A LITTLE UNCERTAIN. DECIDED TO KEEP THE SOUTHERN
CWA IN THE SLIGHT CHANCE CATEGORY...BUT IF THE LATEST TRENDS
CONTINUE POPS MAY NEED TO BE LOWERED. BEST CHANCE FOR RAIN STILL REMAINS
NORTH OF SANTA CRUZ WITH 30-50 PCT TUESDAY NIGHT/WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
RAIN CHANCES TAPER OFF ON THURSDAY. DEFINITELY NOT A DROUGHT
BUSTER...BUT MUCH WELCOMED PRECIPITATION.
&&
.AVIATION...AS OF 10:52 AM PDT THURSDAY...A VORT MAX APPROACHING
THE COAST IS PROMOTING HIGH CLOUDS OVER THE FORECAST AREA. SOME
LOW LEVEL STRATUS IS ALSO APPARENT ON THE VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGE.
HIGH RESOLUTION WRF FORECAST MODEL IS INDICATING STRATUS PUSHING
INTO THE MONTEREY AREA AS WELL AS THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
OVERNIGHT. IN THE BAY AREA THE HIGHEST PROBABILITY OF STRATUS
OVERNIGHT WILL BE IN EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE BAY.
VICINITY OF KSFO...VFR IS EXPECTED TO PREVAIL THROUGH THE FORECAST
PERIOD. STRATUS IS POSSIBLE LATE TONIGHT EARLY FRIDAY MORNING. THE
SEA BREEZE IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE TO AROUND 20 KT THIS AFTERNOON.
CONFIDENCE HIGH THROUGH LATE EVENING.
KSFO BRIDGE APPROACH...SIMILAR TO SFO. STRATUS IS POSSIBLE
OVERNIGHT BUT MOST LIKELY WILL REMAIN EAST OF THE APPROACH.
MONTEREY BAY AREA TERMINALS...VFR EXCEPT THROUGH AT LEAST EARLY
AFTERNOON WITH STRATUS ANTICIPATED TO RETURN BY EARLY EVENING. THE
SEA BREEZE IS EXPECTED TO REACH 8 TO 10 THIS AFTERNOON.
