What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this winter storm warning 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 winter storm warning went out at Feb 27, 8:40 AM PST, 5 hours 29 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 27, 8:40 AM PST, 5 hours 29 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Medford OR
840 AM PST Tue Feb 27 2018
.UPDATE...No major changes were necessary this morning, other
than to haul down the freeze warning along the coast (where
temperatures have quickly started warming this morning), and to
update the fog and low cloud forecast for the West Side valleys
(just to bring them in line with the current observations).
Otherwise everything looks to be on track.
Major forecast efforts today will focus on the Wednesday/Thursday
storm, and the weekend cold and snow expected as the upper level
low meanders about overhead. Significant impacts are likely
across the area, so expect a number of updated and new headlines
with the afternoon package.
For more information on this and the rest of the forecast, see
the previous discussion below. -BPN
&&
.AVIATION...27/12Z TAF CYCLE...VFR conditions prevail across the
area. The exception being the Umpqua Basin and along the coast north
of Cape Blanco where LIFR cigs/vsbys are present. Currently the
Rogue and Illinois valleys are clear but temperature and dewpoint
spreads are minimal. It's possible to see a "sunrise surprise"
around dawn for the Rogue Valley where a few hours of IFR conditions
are could happen. Any lower conditions should improve to VFR by late
morning. A weak front will pass through the area today and this will
increase cloud cover this afternoon, although cigs are expected to
remain VFR. /BR-y
&&
.MARINE...Updated 830 AM PST Tuesday 27 Feb 2018...Winds will
remain relatively calm into Wednesday morning. Steep northwest
swell will gradually diminish tonight into Wednesday. A cold
front will bring heavy rain and increasing south winds by late
Wednesday morning. High end small craft conditions are likely
Wednesday afternoon, possibly reaching gales. The front will move
onshore late Wednesday night into early Thursday morning. Winds
will then diminish, but a very steep and high northwest swell
will follow Thursday into Friday. Current models are indicating seas
of 16 to 17 feet at 13 seconds Friday morning. Conditions will
improve late Friday, but it will remain cold and unsettled through
the weekend. -JRS
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 323 AM PST Tue Feb 27 2018/
DISCUSSION...A thermal trough is on the southern Oregon coast
bringing weak offshore flow and totally clear skies to the region
this morning, except for the west side inland valleys north of
the Umpqua divide. With a cold air mass already over the area and
a very shallow moisture for all of the other inland from the coast
areas, the moisture is generally being deposited as frost. Not a
widespread sampling, but on my brief and chilly walk to the
mailbox just a bit ago the soil was quite frozen and hard, down to
a deep enough depth that walking across that I did not sink at
all into the turf. With this in mind I do not expect a widespread
"sunrise surprise" of post sunrise fog, but patchy freezing fog,
especially near any water is still possible. With a strong, but
relatively shallow surface inversion, temperatures will rise
slowly during the morning, then more rapidly once this inversion
is finally broken early in the afternoon.
The next system moves onto the coast this evening down the back-
side of a weak upper level ridge offshore. A warm front moves
through Wednesday morning and the increased cloud cover should
keep most of the west side near to above freezing Wednesday
morning. The "warm" conveyor flow moves in ahead of a cold
Wednesday afternoon with 850 temps outside of the Mt Shasta are
near a balmy 0C.
The front moves in with the right entrance region of a 95kt
providing good dynamic lift that combines with orographic lift in
the southerly 700 MB flow. the gradient is tight in the Shasta
Valley, resulting in possible advisory winds and strong orographic
lift in the moist flow up the Sacramento valley lifting up the
Mountains in Western Siskiyou county and the Mt Shasta to
Medicine Lake area. This will bring periods of heavy precipitation
rates that will keep snow levels low and mays drop briefly below
2500 feet through the morning in these areas.
