AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEDFORD OR
1023 AM PST THU JAN 28 2016

UPDATED MARINE AND AVIATION

.SHORT TERM...A VERY MOIST FRONT IS MOVING INLAND TODAY AND
BRINGING WIDESPREAD RAIN TO THE AREA. THIS FRONT IS ASSOCIATED
WITH A PLUME OF MOISTURE WITH PRECIPITATION WATER VALUES OF 1.5
INCHES OR HIGHER OFF THE COAST. SNOW LEVELS HAVE RISEN TO AROUND 8000
TO 9000 FEET AND WILL REMAIN HIGH THROUGH TODAY. MODERATE TO HEAVY
RAIN IS EXPECTED FROM THE CASCADES WEST WITH THE HIGHEST AMOUNTS
ALONG THE COAST AND IN THE SOUTHERN OREGON CASCADES. EAST OF THE
CASCADES EXPECT LIGHT TO MODERATE RAIN TODAY. WINDS WILL BE GUSTY
OUT OF THE SOUTH OVER THE MOUNTAINS, IN SHASTA VALLEY AND SUMMER
LAKE AREA.

AS THIS FRONT SHIFTS SOUTHEAST THIS EVENING, SNOW LEVELS WILL
LOWER TO 5000 TO 6500 FEET AND PRECIPITATION WILL BECOME LIGHT AND
LESS WIDESPREAD. THIS CHANGE TO LIGHT PRECIPITATION WILL BE BRIEF.

A SECOND STRONGER AND MORE MOIST FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL PUSH INTO THE
COAST TONIGHT AND INLAND ON FRIDAY. THIS FRONT IS ASSOCIATED WITH
A LONG PLUME OF MOISTURE ORIGINATING FROM JUST NORTH OF THE
HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.  AS A RESULT THIS WILL BRING AN ATMOSPHERIC
RIVER, AKIN TO PINEAPPLE EXPRESS, INTO THE AREA ON FRIDAY AND
EXPECT ANOTHER STRONGER ROUND OF RAIN. MOISTURE FLOW WILL BE
ORIENTED WEST TO EAST WHICH WILL RESULT IN ENHANCED RAINFALL OVER
THE COAST RANGE AND CASCADES DURING THIS EVENT. SNOW LEVELS WILL
RISE AGAIN AS THE SYSTEM MOVES INLAND TO AROUND 7000 TO 8000 FEET.
THEN SNOW LEVELS WILL DROP SHARPLY BEHIND THE FRONT LATE FRIDAY
AND FRIDAY NIGHT...DROPPING DOWN TO 3500 TO 4500 FEET FRIDAY
NIGHT...THEN TO 3000 FEET ON SATURDAY. SCATTERED TO WIDESPREAD
SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED BEHIND THIS FRONT LATE FRIDAY THROUGH
SATURDAY AS A TROUGH MOVES INTO THE REGION. THIS MAY RESULT IN
SOME LIGHT TO MODERATE SNOW ACCUMULATIONS OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN.

IN THE SHORT TERM, FOR TODAY AND FRIDAY, THE MAIN CONCERN IS WITH
THE HEAVY RAINFALL EXPECTED. THIS WILL BRING RISES TO THE MAINSTEM
AREA RIVERS WITH SOME RIVERS POSSIBLY REACHING BANKFULL. SMALL
STREAMS WILL SEE THE POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING TODAY AND MORESO ON
FRIDAY, MAINLY IN SOUTHWEST PORTIONS OF THE AREA WEST OF THE
CASCADES. SEE THE FFAMFR FOR DETAILS ON THE POTENTIAL OF SMALL
STREAM FLOODING AND THE ESFMFR FOR DETAILS ON RIVER RISES.
CURRENT ENSEMBLE SREF MODEL OUTPUT DOES NOT SUPPORT RAIN RATES
HIGH ENOUGH FOR DEBRIS FLOW OR FLASH FLOOD THREATS NEAR WILDFIRE
BURN SCARS SUCH AS IN WESTERN SISKIYOU COUNTY OR IN THE COAST
RANGE. HOWEVER WE WILL MONITOR THIS CONCERN.

ANOTHER CONCERN WILL BE WITH STRONG WINDS WITH THESE FRONTS.
ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS ARE EXPECTED TODAY IN THE SHASTA AND SUMMER
LAKE AREAS. WINDS MAY BE STRONGER FOR THE SUMMER LAKE AREA AND
HIGHER TERRAIN EAST OF THE CASCADES WITH THE FRONT ON FRIDAY. A
HIGH WINDS WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR THIS AREA.

AS SNOW LEVELS DROP BEHIND THE FRONT LATE FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY
AND SHOWERS CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA, WILL ALSO NEED TO CONSIDER
THE POTENTIAL FOR SNOW IMPACTS OVER AREA ROADS AND MOUNTAIN
PASSES.

&&

.AVIATION...FOR THE 28/18Z TAF CYCLE...A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL
CONTINUE TO PUSH INLAND THIS MORNING WITH RAIN AND A MIX OF IFR/MVFR
CIGS/VIS SPREADING INTO THE WEST SIDE. EXPECT WIDESPREAD MVFR/IFR
AND TERRAIN OBSCURATIONS TO BECOME TOTAL TODAY AS A PERIOD OF
MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL ACCOMPANIES THE FRONT THROUGH THE AREA
FROM WEST TO EAST. CEILINGS SHOULD IMPROVE A BIT WEST OF THE
CASCADES THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING AS THE HEAVIEST RAIN PUSHES EAST OF
THE MOUNTAINS, BUT THIS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER ROUND OF
MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN WITH MVFR/IFR AND NEAR TOTAL TERRAIN
OBSCURATIONS LATE TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. BTL/SK

&&

.MARINE...UPDATED 900 AM PST THU 28 JAN 2016... MODERATE TO HEAVY
RAIN ALONG THE COAST THIS MORNING WILL DIMINISH FROM WEST TO EAST
TODAY AS A COLD FRONT CONTINUES TO PROGRESS THROUGH THE COASTAL
WATERS. VERY HIGH LONG PERIOD WEST SWELL WILL CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY.
LOW PRESSURE WILL BRING ANOTHER PERIOD OF GUSTY SOUTH WINDS NEAR
GALE FORCE FRIDAY MORNING BEFORE WINDS SHIFT TO THE WEST AND EASE
FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SEAS WILL SLOWLY SUBSIDE FRIDAY NIGHT
BUT WILL REMAIN HIGH AND HAZARDOUS TO SMALL CRAFT THROUGH MUCH OF
THE WEEKEND. BTL

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 351 AM PST THU JAN 28 2016/

DISCUSSION...AS OF 2 AM THE COLD FRONT IS STILL ABOUT 170 MILES
OFFSHORE. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE ASHORE AROUND 8 AM.
SATELLITE RAINFALL ESTIMATE INDICATED MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL.
WITH A STRONG LOW LEVEL SOUTHWEST WIND OF 45-50 MPH..THIS WILL
PROVIDE A GOOD MOISTURE TRANSPORT. THE FORECAST OF MODERATE TO
HEAVY RAIN INTO SOUTHWEST OREGON AND NW CALIFORNIA APPEARS ON
TRACK. RAIN HAS MOVED INTO THE COAST AND SHORT TERM MODELS SPREAD
RAIN INTO EASTERN DOUGLAS BY 4 AM AND MOST AREAS FROM THE CASCADES
WEST SHOULD SEE RAIN BY DAYBREAK. THE FIRST WAVE OF MODERATE TO
HEAVY RAIN TO AFFECT CURRY COUNTY WILL BE THIS MORNING WITH THE
AREA FROM CAPE BLANCO SOUTH THROUGH BROOKINGS RECEIVING AROUND
1.25 INCHES. WE ARE FORECASTING A LITTLE OVER HALF AN INCH OF RAIN
FOR COOS AND DOUGLAS COUNTIES. JOSEPHINE COUNTY COULD SEE AROUND
HALF AN INCH OF RAIN THIS MORNING BUT FOR JACKSON COUNTY RAIN WILL
BE MAINLY IN THE APPLEGATE AREA WITH MEDFORD GETTING A FEW
HUNDREDTH. SNOW LEVELS WILL BE QUITE HIGH THIS MORNING AROUND 8000
FEET.

THE FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE CASCADES AROUND NOON AND
PRECIPITATION WILL TAPER OFF BEHIND THE FRONT IN SW OREGON.
HOWEVER MOST OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL THEN SHIFT TO THE SISKIYOUS
MOUNTAINS AND WESTERN SISKIYOU COUNTY THIS AFTERNOON. AROUND 0.75
INCH OF RAIN IS FORECAST THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS SOUTHERN CURRY AND
JOSEPHINE COUNTIES. CRATER LAKE AND EASTERN DOUGLAS COUNTY COULD
ALSO SEE AROUND A HALF TO 0.75 INCH OF RAIN THIS AFTERNOON. RAIN
WILL ALSO SPREAD INTO KLAMATH AND WESTERN LAKE COUNTIES.

THE COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO COME BACK AS A WARM FRONT FRIDAY AND
WILL PROVIDE WITH ANOTHER ROUND OF RAIN. LOWLAND FLOODING WILL BE
A CONCERN THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT OR SATURDAY.

MODERATELY STRONG SOUTH WINDS WILL BE A CONCERN FROM THIS MORNING
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON IN THE SHASTA VALLEY AHEAD OF THE FRONT.
HOWEVER WE DON'T HAVE THE SOUTHEAST COMPONENT SO WINDS SHOULD NOT
EXCEED ADVISORY LEVEL. AS THE FRONT MOVE INTO THE CASCADES
TONIGHT, MODELS INDICATE A STRONG SOUTHWEST WINDS AT 700MB.HIGH
WIND WATCH CONTINUES FOR THE EAST SIDE BUT DOES NOT COME INTO
EFFECT UNTIL FRIDAY MORNING. /FB
