AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
515 PM PST MON JAN 4 2016

...HEAVY RAIN AND GUSTY WINDS LIKELY LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY
TUESDAY...
...ANOTHER POTENT STORM FORECAST FOR WEDNESDAY...

.SYNOPSIS...A STORM TONIGHT AND TUESDAY MORNING WILL LIKELY
PRODUCE HEAVY RAIN AND LOCALLY STRONG WINDS. ANOTHER STRONG STORM
WITH HEAVY RAIN AND EVEN STRONGER WINDS IS EXPECTED ON WEDNESDAY.
MORE RAIN WILL FOLLOW ON THURSDAY.

&&

.DISCUSSION...AS OF 3:00 PM PST MONDAY...AFTER RAIN THIS MORNING,
CONDITIONS GENERALLY DRIED OUT THROUGH THE DAY AS WE FOUND
OURSELVES BETWEEN SYSTEMS. AS EXPECTED, RAINFALL AMOUNTS FROM THIS
MORNING WERE ON THE LIGHT SIDE IN MOST URBAN LOCATIONS WITH VALUES
OF LESS THAN TWO TENTHS. HIGHER ELEVATION SPOTS HAD MORE LUCK WITH
SOME LOCATIONS SEEING 1/2 TO 1". KMUX RADAR DOES SHOW SCATTERED
SHOWERS AROUND THE AREA SO COULD SEE UP TO 1/10" IN THE EARLY
EVENING HOURS. ALSO WORTH NOTING THAT HUMIDITY READINGS ARE UP
QUITE A BIT FROM YESTERDAY AND ARE NOW GENERALLY 60 TO 90%.

OUR ATTENTION NOW TURNS TO WHAT WILL BE EITHER THE STRONGEST OR
SECOND STRONGEST PACIFIC SYSTEM OF THE WEEK. SIMILAR TO THE ONE
THAT JUST WENT THROUGH, THIS IS COMING DIRECTLY FROM THE WEST
(COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS SYSTEMS THAT CAME IN FROM THE NW).
LATEST GUIDANCE IN ONLY SLIGHTLY VARIES FROM THE PREVIOUS LINE OF
THINKING WHICH LEAD TO ONLY A FEW SMALL CHANGES IN THE FORECAST.
THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO BE ABOUT TO THE COAST BY
4AM AS THE TRIPLE POINT IS POSITIONED RIGHT AT SAN FRANCISCO BAY.
THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO QUICKLY MOVE TO THE EAST AND POSSIBLY
BE OUT OF OUR CWA BY NOON. HIGH RESOLUTION MODELS CONTINUE TO
SHOW THE POTENTIAL FOR MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN AS THE FRONT MOVES
THROUGH ALONG WITH GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS WITH SPEEDS OF 15 TO 25
MPH AND LOCAL GUSTS TO OVER 35 MPH. THE BAND OF HEAVIER RAINFALL
REMAINS THE MAIN AREA OF CONCERN AS LOCALLY UP TO 1" COULD FALL IN
A COUPLE OF HOURS. A SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT HAS BEEN ISSUED
(SFOSPSMTR) ALONG WITH A FLASH FLOOD WATCH (SFOFFAMTR) GOOD
THROUGH TOMORROW MORNING. RAINFALL AMOUNTS ARE FORECAST TO BE 1/2" TO
1" FOR MANY URBAN AREAS WITH 1.5-2.5" FOR MOST HIGHER ELEVATION
SPOTS ALTHOUGH PARTS OF THE SANTA LUCIAS WILL LIKELY NEAR 3". ONE
POSITIVE IS THE TIMING NOW BRINGS THE MAIN BAND OF RAIN THROUGH
OUR AREA BEFORE THE BULK OF THE MORNING RUSH.

RAIN WILL CHANGE OVER TO SHOWERS BY LATER TUESDAY MORNING. MORE
UNSTABLE AIR ALONG WITH A TROF PASSAGE PLUS PVA WILL LEAD TO THE
POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSTORMS AND POSSIBLE SMALL HAIL AS WELL.
RAINFALL AMOUNTS FOR THE REST OF TUESDAY WILL GENERALLY BE LIGHTER
-- MAINLY UNDER 1/3". SHOWERS WILL TAPER OFF LATE ON TUESDAY.

THAT BREAK WILL BE SHORT LIVED AS ANOTHER SYSTEM COMES RACING IN
FROM THE WEST ON WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF
WIDESPREAD RAINFALL THAT COULD AGAIN BY LOCALLY HEAVY AT TIMES.
URBAN SPOTS WILL AGAIN POTENTIALLY PICK UP 1/2" TO 1" WITH 1.5 TO
3" FOR HIGHER ELEVATION SPOTS. IN ADDITION TO THE PRECIPITATION,
WINDS ARE FORECAST TO BE STRONGER. SOUTHERLY WINDS COULD EASILY BE
20 TO 30 MPH WITH LOCAL GUSTS OVER 45 MPH. LOOKS LIKE A WIND
ADVISORY WILL BE NEEDED OF AT LEAST A PORTION OF OUR CWA (IN
PARTICULAR NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA). RAIN WILL ONCE AGAIN
SWITCH TO SHOWERS BEHIND THE FRONT ON WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL
CONTINUE AT LEAST INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT. RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL
LIKELY BE SIMILAR WITH THE SECOND SYSTEM AS THEY ARE WITH THE
FIRST.

LONGER RANGE GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO HIGHLIGHT MORE ACTIVE WEATHER
WITH POTENTIAL SYSTEMS THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY, SATURDAY, AND
POSSIBLY 2 TO 3 MORE NEXT WEEK. EVEN LONGER RANGE GUIDANCE
SUGGESTS WETTER THAN NORMAL CONDITIONS OUT TO THE END OF THE
MONTH.

&&

.AVIATION...AS OF 5:15 PM PST MONDAY...THE MAIN LOW PRESSURE CENTER
IS PRESENTLY LOCATED 42N/131W OR APPROX 300 MILES OFF THE SW OREGON
COAST WITH A COLD FRONT TRAILING SOUTH OF THE LOW TO APPROX 400 MILES
WEST OF THE BAY AREA.

WARM AIR ADVANCING AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT WILL RESULT IN INCREASING
RAIN RATES AND DETERIORATING WX CONDITIONS MAINLY FOCUSED FROM LATE
TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING. STEADY LIGHT RAIN NORTH BAY THIS
EVENING THEN THE ENTIRE AREA WILL HAVE MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN PER
STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION AT FIRST FOLLOWED BY THE PASSAGE OF AN
ACTIVE COLD FRONT. RAIN ARRIVAL PROB SLOW AT FIRST DUE TO PERSISTENT
SE WINDS OVER NORCAL THIS EVENING BUT A WIND SHIFT OVER TO SW THEN
W IS ANTICIPATED BEGINNING EARLY TUESDAY MORNING. MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS
HOWEVER IFR VSBYS LIKELY IN MODERATE TO BRIEFLY HEAVY SHOWERS.

VICINITY OF KSFO...VFR/MVFR CIGS. STEADIER RAIN ARRIVING LATER THIS
EVENING. LIGHT S-SE WINDS INCREASING AND GUSTY OVERNIGHT ESPECIALLY
NEAR THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE TUESDAY MORNING.

SFO BRIDGE APPROACH...SIMILAR TO KSFO.

MONTEREY BAY AREA TERMINALS...VFR/MVFR CIGS. INCREASING SE WINDS
THIS EVENING BECOMING SW TUESDAY MORNING. RAIN ARRIVING TONIGHT
CONTINUES TUESDAY BEFORE DIMINISHING TO SHOWERS TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

&&

.MARINE...AS OF 3:00 PM PST MONDAY...A POTENT STORM WILL ARRIVE
LATE TONIGHT LASTING INTO WEDNESDAY BRINGING HEAVY RAIN...POSSIBLE
THUNDERSTORMS AND MUCH STRONGER WINDS. IN ADDITION WESTERLY SWELLS
WILL INCREASE TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY WITH AN EVEN LARGE SWELL TRAIN
FOR THURSDAY. WINDS AND SEAS WILL DIMINISH LATER THIS WEEK. IF
VENTURING TO OPEN WATERS USE CAUTION AS THE INCREASED WINDS AND
SEAS WILL MAKE FOR HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS.
