Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Medford OR
250 AM PDT THU JUL 21 2016

.DISCUSSION...Satellite imagery again shows widespread low clouds
along the coast with an area of break from around Cape Blanco.
Like last night, all of interior Coos County, as well ws the lower
Umpqua River valley, are filled in. Short term models bring low
clouds into the Roseburg area a few hours after sunrise and
maintain cloudy sky there all day. This is reasonable since
onshore flow will be increasing as a short wave disturbance helps
to bring the marine push inland. This short wave trough will also
bring gusty winds to our forecast area, with the Klamath Basin,
Goose Lake Basin and the Shasta Valley seeing the strongest winds
this afternoon and evening. The Rogue Valley will also see gusty
winds this afternoon with MOS guidance forecast 20 mph wind at
the KMFR airport. Light showers are possible north of the Umpqua
Divide. The atmosphere will also be unstable from Crater Lake
north but the stability parameter does not look strong enough for
any lightning strikes to be more than isolated in nature.

Ridging aloft builds into our area quickly and tonight's model
runs now strengthen the ridge further next week. This means highs
of 90-95 are likely this weekend for the Rogue Valley, and mid
90s appear likely from the early to middle of next week, with
highs near 100 in the lower Klamath River valley.
Correspondingly, we will also see a thermal trough setting up
along the coast. This will lead to gusty winds in the marine water
as well as offshore East wind that could be strong at times. /FB

&&

.AVIATION...21/06Z TAF cycle...IFR stratus along the coast will
push/expand inland bringing MVFR ceilings to the Umpqua Valley as
the marine layer deepens late tonight into Thursday morning. Some
drizzle and fog are possible along the coast with areas of LIFR
ceilings near Brookings. Terrain will be at least partially
obscured. South of the Umpqua Divide and from the Cascades eastward,
conditions will remain mostly VFR. Ceilings should lift to VFR, but
isolated showers are possible from the coast to the Cascade
foothills Thursday afternoon and early evening. An isolated
thunderstorm or two also cannot be ruled out from around Crater Lake
northeast to northern Klamath and northwest Lake County Thursday
afternoon/evening. -Spilde

&&

.MARINE...Updated 800 PM PDT Wednesday 20 July 2016...Winds and
seas will remain relatively calm through Thursday night as broad,
weak low pressure remains over the area through then. There will
be a chance for some light rain overnight through tomorrow, mainly
north of Cape Blanco. On Friday, the pattern changes to high
pressure aloft and a thermal trough developing along the coast,
continuing through the weekend and into next week. This pattern
will bring an increase in north winds south of Cape Blanco where
advisory level winds are likely to develop. North gales and very
steep wind driven seas are likely to develop by Saturday afternoon
south of Cape Blanco, with small craft advisory conditions
developing to the north.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...Updated 230 PM PDT Wednesday 20 July 2016.
A low off the Pacific Northwest coast will be the main concern as it
moves inland to the north late Thursday.  Ahead of this low, models
continue to show relatively low amounts of moisture aloft but there
will be sufficient amounts to warrant continuing the chance of
afternoon and evening showers and slight chance of thunderstorms
from the southern Oregon Cascades northeastward into northern
Klamath County. Of greater concern is low humidity levels and strong
gusty west to southwest winds expected east of the Cascades. These
conditions will bring critical fire weather conditions into Modoc
County and east of the Klamath Basin in southern Oregon. A red flag
warning has been issued for these areas, which include Northern
California fire weather zone 285 and Oregon fire weather zones 624
and 625. Gusty winds and low humidities are also expected in the
Shasta Valley and eastern Siskiyou County Thursday afternoon and
evening. However these winds and low humidities are not expected to
reach critical fire weather levels. Have headlined these conditions
in the fire weather forecast.

Winds will be weaker in subsequent days but there will be a warming
trend with hot, dry, and breezy conditions expected from Friday
through the first half of next week.  A surface thermal trough will
develop along the coast and result in periods of breezy east winds
over the coastal ridges and the ridges in Western Siskiyou County.
Moderate recoveries on many area ridges may also be expected this
weekend into next week. -CC
