What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Medford, OR wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Feb 18, 9:27 AM PST, 1 hour 8 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 18, 9:27 AM PST, 1 hour 8 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Medford OR
927 AM PST Sat Feb 18 2017

.UPDATE...We've lowered precipitation chances a little for this
afternoon as radar/satellite/model data suggests decreased showers
from west to east as the day progresses. Also, we've lowered snow
levels some in the mountains and east side this morning based on
observations.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A cold front is moving through this morning and
bringing with it valley rain and mountain snow. Precipitation
will diminish from west to east through the afternoon.
Precipitation in the form of snow will linger longest in the
Cascades and Coast Range as upslope westerly flow continues.
Low pressure with another round of precipitation will arrive
Sunday, and today's focus will be determining impacts from this
next system and the wetter system Monday into Tuesday.

Please see the previous discussion below for more details on this
active weather pattern.

&&

.AVIATION...18/18Z TAF CYCLE...Areas of MVFR/IFR cigs will improve
to VFR with local MVFR cigs this afternoon with higher terrain
obscured. Areas of MVFR/IFR cigs with higher terrain obscured will
return tonight and persist through Sunday morning.

&&

.MARINE...Updated 830 AM PST Saturday 18 February 2017...Winds
will become southerly ahead of a front that will move through the
waters Saturday night into Sunday morning. This will bring another
round of very steep seas. High long period swell will build over the
waters late Sunday. Two storms could impact the waters Sunday night
through Monday night with the potential for gales and very steep
seas before conditions improve toward midweek.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 430 AM PST Sat Feb 18 2017/

DISCUSSION...There is general model agreement on a series of
frontal systems to affect our area through Wednesday. The most
impactful of these still looks to approach with increasing
southerly winds and developing moderate to locally heavy
precipitation on Sunday evening...continuing through Monday night.
Snow levels are forecast to range from 5000 to 6000 feet, which
means that most of the major mountain passes will receive rain.
30 hour snowfall of 8 to 16 inches is forecast for the higher
elevations of the Cascades and Siskiyou mountains. Rainfall will
be heaviest south of our area, but in our area the amounts will be
highest in Curry, Josephine, and Siskiyou Counties (with a
significant amount also for Coos County). Significant rises or
another episode of flooding will be possible from most of the same
rivers that recently exceeded their banks. Those are the Coquille
basin, the lower Rogue, the lower Klamath, and the Scott River.
Highest winds are expected to be late Sunday evening through
Monday at the coastal headlands, in the Shasta Valley, and in
northern Lake County with gusts of 40 to 60 MPH possible...except
up to 70 MPH at coastal headlands.

Before Sunday evening...an upper level trough is tracking across
the Pacific Northwest this morning with continued light to locally
moderate rain and snow. A winter weather advisory remains in
effect for above 5000 feet in southern and eastern Siskiyou
County. Showers will diminish behind the trough this afternoon and
early evening. Another front will bring rain to the coast this
evening...spreading inland late tonight through Sunday morning
with a very brief decrease in precipitation to follow on Sunday
afternoon.

Uncertainty increases beyond the end of the aforementioned storm
on early Tuesday. A broad upper level trough is likely to be over
the eastern Pacific on Tuesday with a shortwave to continue west
side focused showers and snow showers...then the potential for a
stronger front from the southwest Tuesday night into early
Wednesday. Snow levels may drop down to the major passes on
Tuesday or Tuesday night. Lighter post-frontal showers are likely
to linger Wednesday...possibly into Wednesday night.

Uncertainty increases by another order of magnitude regarding the
forecast from Thursday onward. A northerly flow is likely along
with colder temperatures, though there is a high degree of
uncertainty in whether there will be a dry pattern, nearly dry,
or perhaps a more consequential light but low elevation snowfall.
