What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this high wind warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Portland, OR wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high wind warning went out at Oct 20, 8:55 AM PDT, 5 hours 13 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Oct 20, 8:55 AM PDT, 5 hours 13 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Portland OR
855 AM PDT Fri Oct 20 2017
.SYNOPSIS...Wet October weather continues. Showers today, and maybe a
few thunderstorms. Then heavier rain spreads across region Saturday
morning. Brief let up in the rain towards Sat evening, but as cold
front arrives Sat night, rain will increase again. Showers on Sunday
as the front drops south of the region. High pressure builds over
the region early next week, with dry weather on tap that very well
may last for the week.
&&
.SHORT TERM...Today through Sunday...No changes to current forecasts.
Previous discussion is as follows: Lots of showers persist across
SW Washington and NW Oregon this morning, as a cool upper level
trough begins to push onshore. The cool air aloft will keep our
weather unsettled throughout the day, with a couple thunderstorms
possible. Low to mid level shear exists, but looks rather weak; with
0-3km shear values are generally around 20 kt today on the 06z NAM
soundings for the Willamette Valley. Plus it appears the core of
coolest air aloft will move across the forecast area this morning,
with temps warming aloft and gradually capping convection as this
afternoon progresses. While there may be some heavier showers that
produce brief downpours and spotty small hail, it appears doubtful
any thunderstorms will approach severe limits today. Snow levels will
be low enough for a few more inches of snow on the Cascade passes,
with more substantial snow for the higher ski resort elevations. The
Winter Weather Advisory looks marginal for the Cascades, but we will
allow it to continue as plenty of showers look to be on their way.
Showers will decrease this evening as the air mass stabilizes with
the loss of solar heating and warm advection aloft. However, this
warm advection aloft will be the beginning of a period of isentropic
lift which will cause steadier stratiform rain to increase as a warm
front approaches tonight. Strong low-level winds will enhance
precipitation both due to more efficient isentropic lift and
orographic lift in the higher terrain; both the latest NAM and GFS
suggest 850 mb winds will be W-SW around 50 knots by 12z Sat morning.
This will result in impressive rainfall rates Saturday morning,
especially in the higher terrain.
Assuming the warm front moves east across the Cascades early Saturday
afternoon as the 06z NAM/GFS suggest, much if not all of the forecast
area will be in the warm sector Saturday afternoon, with snow levels
rising above 8000 feet. Southwest winds approach 50 kt all the way
down to 925 mb Saturday afternoon. This will often result windy but
relatively dry weather for the Willamette Valley while the Coast
Range, Cascades and Willapa Hills get hammered with persistent
orographic rain. Models suggest the frontal zone will linger near SW
Washington Saturday afternoon and evening before finally sagging back
southward Saturday night and Sunday morning. Rain will gradually ease
later Sunday as the frontal zone drifts south and weakens.
The progression of this front and the magnitude of 850 mb flow are
somewhat reminiscent of the Halloween 2015 heavy rain event across
the PDX metro, with one major difference; that event occurred close
to evening rush hour and this one will occur during the late
night/early AM period in the middle of a weekend. Nonetheless, there
will probably be urban and small stream flooding issues if this
forecast pans out. Some smaller rivers may even make a run at minor
flood stage; the Grays in Rosburg and a couple of coastal drainages
in the Coast Range come to mind. Additionally, rainfall rates appear
likely to reach values of concern for our burn scar areas; especially
the Eagle Creek burn scar which is near where we expect the heaviest
rain to fall. Considered issuing a Flood Watch on this shift, but
will allow our hydrologist and the day shift to take a look at 12z
runs before making the final call.
Overall rainfall totals this weekend look to range from 5 to 10
inches in the Cascades, Coast Range, and Willapa Hills north of
Highway 20. Coastal areas will likely be in the 3 to 6 inch range,
while 2 to 4 inches appear likely for the inland valleys. Of our
forecast area, Lane County appears likely to spend the least time
under the aim of this atmospheric river. Therefore QPF totals for
Lane County will probably be about half of the values listed above.
Will also need to consider the wind associated with this system,
given the 45-60 kt W-SW flow just above the surface. As mentioned
above, most of the forecast area will be in the warm sector by Sat
afternoon if all goes according to plan. This will allow good mixing
of the boundary layer, and pressure gradients turn more
south-to-north during the day Saturday. Cannot rule out south wind
gusts 35-45 mph for the Willamette Valley Saturday afternoon and
evening; the higher end of which would warrant a Wind Advisory,
especially considering most trees are still bearing plenty of leaves.
Again, with this situation being borderline, will allow the day shift
to take a look at 12z runs before making any decisions on an advisory
inland or regarding the High Wind Watch for the Coast and Coast
Range. This could end up being one of those situations where winds
along the coast are only slightly stronger than the winds inland.
All in all, it appears our autumn storm season is beginning in
earnest this weekend, if it hasn't already. We strongly urge people
to check their storm drains for clogs due to fallen leaves today, as
this is a common cause of significant urban flooding. Weagle
.LONG TERM...No Changes. Previous discussion follows...
Sunday night through Thursday....Models are in agreement, that
shortwave ridging will develop over the Pacific NW early next week.
This will bring a period of dry weather that will likely be followed,
by a weak trough towards the middle of the week. This will provide
the chance for more rain Tuesday night into Wednesday. Models are
suggesting that another ridge of high pressure could bring a dry
period late next week. Bishop
&&
.AVIATION...VFR prevailing today in a showery weather pattern,
although there will be occasional MVFR conditions with the showers,
most widespread through 20z. Local short-lived IFR conditions are
also possible today. there is a slight chance for thunderstorms
today through about 00z. Tonight still mainly VFR conditions,
although there is a chance for seeing MVFR cigs develop after 08z
mainly along the coast.
KPDX AND APPROACHES...Mainly VFR conditions today and tonight.
Temporary MVFR conditions with showers are likely today, with the
best chances through 21z.
&&
.MARINE...A large long period westerly swell from 17 to 20 ft this
morning will slowly subside today and tonight. Winds, gusting to 25
kt particularly near showers, will slowly back to the west-northwest
and weaken as a weak ridge of high pres begins to push in from the
west.
Winds switch around to the south-southeast this evening, then
increase again later in the night as a strong frontal system
approaches from the west. Gale warning is already out, from late
tonight through Sat night. There may be a temporary slackening of
the winds midday Sat once the warm front moves across, but winds
should pick up again later in the day as a cold front drops se
across the waters. Seas are likely to rebuild again into the 17 t 20
ft range Sat and Sat night, aided by the local wind driven seas.
Sun and mon will see improving conditions on the coastal waters as
high pres moves across the area.
