Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Spokane WA
218 PM PST THU NOV 20 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A relatively quiet and cool overnight period with a few snow
showers over the north will give way to a sharp deterioration in
the weather on Friday as a strong and moist Pacific storm brings
valley rain and mountain snow Friday night followed by very windy
conditions on Saturday. An active and periodically wet weather
regime will continue through the next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Tonight...A rather mushy but somewhat benign night is in store
fro the region. Satellite and radar indicate the exiting storm
band that brought light snow to the region on track to move off
to the east early this evening. Meanwhile the next minor trough is
diving into California with a weak northern branch wave scuttling
into southern British Columbia. Models suggest a weak and
shearing wave will exist between these two dynamic centers and
will transit the region tonight...but the weakening nature of this
system should bring little beyond a few snow showers concentrated
over the northeastern zones late tonight. Once again fog and the
potential fro some freezing drizzle will exist in the deep basin
where stubborn arctic air is pooling in these low elevations.

Friday through Saturday...Latest models are in good agreement and
consistent with bringing a very moist and very dynamic wave
through the region during this period. A strong warm front will
make short work of the leftover and now modified arctic air over
the eastern half of the forecast area with snow levels expected to
rise to the 4000 foot region. In the west the cold air will be
slower to scrub and snow levels will stay low through much of this
event...perhaps all of it in the northern Cascade valleys and the
Okanogan valley. Snow levels will rise...but not as aggressively
over the southern portions of the deep basin...leading to the
likelihood of at least minimal warning criteria accumulating snow
on the Waterville Plateau. The southern valleys such as the
Wenatchee River valley will see some snow but amounts will be
overall fairly light. The Cascade mountains above 3000 to 4000
feet will get hammered with snow with a 12 hour period of moist
isentropic lift augmented by upslope southeasterly low level flow.
All the existing Winter Storm Watches will be upgraded to warnings
with the afternoon package...as well as adding the Okanogan and
Waterville Plateau to the highlight mix.

Beginning Friday morning the isentropic moistening process
will promote increasing clouds...with light snow beginning over
the northern zones in the early afternoon. By Friday evening an
almost universal field of valley rain and mountain snow will
envelop the region...except for the aforementioned north
Cascades/Okanogan where snow will continue as the dominant
meteor.

A strong cold front will rip through the region Saturday morning
largely ending precipitation in the Cascades lee but promoting
enhanced upslope snow showers into the Idaho Panhandle mountains.
The big story on Saturday will be very windy conditions especially
over the eastern basin exposed terrain with gust potential picked
off of model sounding mixed layers up to 45 or 50 mph. Saturday
will be a well mixed day with much milder temperatures than we
have grown accustomed to. /Fugazzi

Saturday Night through Monday Night: In the wake of Saturday's
cold front, the breezy afternoon winds will gradually subside
overnight. Don't see a great push of dry air behind this front. We
should have clearing skies in most places. This will allow
temperatures to drop sharply, especially in the northern valleys.
Then fog and stratus will form overnight and persist into Sunday
morning. The northwesterly flow is very unstable so the Panhandle
mountains will continue to pile up snow Saturday night.

By Sunday, another Pacific system will quickly clip across the
area. Due to the strong westerly flow, the Cascades and Panhandle
will be favored with this system. Spokane metro area could see
a little snow Sunday morning but will change to rain in the
afternoon.

Confidence is much lower for Monday's event. The models really
diverge from each other on track and timing so I have about as
much chance of being wrong as right on the forecast. Went with
likely wording for the Cascades/Panhandle and chance wording
elsewhere. As usual, Highway 2/I-90 will be the dividing line
between rain and snow.  RJ

Tuesday through Thanksgiving: This portion of the forecast is
quite complicated, which is important because it envelops one of
the busiest travels days of the year. Unfortunately, the models
are having a hard time coming to some agreement, which makes this,
unfortunately, a low confidence forecast. There is some higher
confidence for Tuesday, as a shortwave traversed the region in
northwest flow. This will bring better chances of precipitation to
the Cascades, and the higher terrain of northeast Washington and
the Idaho Panhandle. It was happens after Tuesday where things get
all mucked up. The Euro model has stuck to its guns, carving out a
larger trough over much of the US, keeping the Inland Northwest on
the western edge of the cold air mass. The GFS keeps any
influence of the cold air mass well to the east, instead building
a ridge of high pressure over the region. This ridge is more
amplified than it's previous solutions. So, all in all, we didn't
stray much from the previous forecasts, which weighted towards the
more consistent solution (colder). While this would bring snow
levels into the valleys, the north-northwesterly flow does not
look like it will have a ton of moisture to work with. Lots of
fine-tuning will be made to this portion of the forecast for sure.
