Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Francisco Bay Area
852 PM PST Sat Feb 24 2018

.SYNOPSIS...Clearing skies are expected overnight along with cool
temperatures, although not as cold as last night. Dry weather and
slightly warmer temperatures are expected on Sunday. A cold front
is forecast to bring a brief period of light precipitation to the
region late Sunday night and Monday morning, with showers
lingering into Monday afternoon along with locally blustery
conditions. A stronger and wetter storm system is expected to
bring widespread precipitation to the region later next week, most
likely around Thursday.

&&

.DISCUSSION...As of 8:50 PM PST Saturday...A weak upper level
disturbance moving through northwesterly flow aloft resulted in
some clouds and even isolated showers this afternoon. Northwest
winds also increased after this upper level feature passed. Winds
will gradually subside overnight and skies should mostly clear by
midnight. The result will be another cool night tonight. However,
early evening dewpoints are running as much as 20 degrees higher
than 24 hours ago. This increased moisture will help hold temps
up tonight and therefore do not expect as cold a night as last
night when 11 locations set or tied record lows. Only the coldest
valleys will see temperature drop to around freezing late tonight
and early Sunday.

Sunday is expected to be a dry day with slightly warmer
temperatures. Winds will be light for the most part except for
increasing west to northwest winds in the afternoon, especially
near the coast.

Models are in agreement in bringing the next system in from the
north-northwest by late Sunday night. A cold front is forecast to
spread rain across the North Bay between midnight Sunday night and
sunrise Monday morning, and then south across the rest of the
forecast area on Monday morning. Unlike the cold systems that
moved into our area this past week, this Sunday Night/Monday
morning system is forecast to produce widespread precipitation,
with most of our area expected to pick up measurable rain.
However, the front is forecast to move through quickly and the
models generally agree that total rainfall amounts will generally
be a quarter of an inch or less. This system isn't expected to be
quite as cold as recent systems, but cold enough to drop snow
levels to 3000 feet by early Monday and possibly as low as 2500
feet. Thus, we may see up to an inch of snow on some of the
higher peaks in the Bay Area and perhaps heavier and more
widespread accumulation across the higher portions of the Santa
Lucias.

Showers are expected to linger behind the front on Monday
afternoon and perhaps into Monday evening across portions of
Monterey and San Benito Counties when a cutoff low develops over
the Central Coast. Precipitation chances are expected to end in
all areas by late Monday night as the upper low drops south to
near Point Conception.

Brisk west to northwest winds are forecast to develop behind the
cold front on Monday. By Monday afternoon and evening we could
see gusts up to 35 mph along the coast. Winds will subside near
the coast on Monday night, but will turn to the north and remain
gusty in the hills through Tuesday morning.

Temperatures on Monday night will be quite chilly as skies clear
from north to south. However, there should be enough mixing from
gusty winds in the hills to keep temperatures from dropping below
freezing in most locations. Overnight lows are expected to drop
below freezing once again in the valleys of interior Monterey
County and San Benito County by Tuesday night.

The longer range models agree that a more potent and wetter system
will impact much of California later next week. Rain could begin
in the North Bay as early as Wednesday afternoon, but the bulk of
the precipitation with this system is expected between Wednesday
night and Thursday evening. If this system develops and tracks as
currently forecast by the models, our region will see its first
widespread soaking rains in more than a month.

&&

.AVIATION...as of 7:39 PM PST Saturday...VFR. There is more water
vapor in the near surface to lower atmosphere this evening compared
to yesterday at this time, double digit dewpoint temperature recovery,
thus areas MVFR cigs are possible overnight; best chance for MVFR cigs
per WRF model boundary layer output is from the South Bay to the north
Central Coast. Boundary layer drying tends to settle back in on W-NW
flow over the remaining Bay Area overnight and Sunday morning.

A quickly moving, elevated, and mainly dry cold front swept southward
over the area today. Cold air advection was mostly located in the lower
levels 925 mb to 850 mb, gusty surface to lower level W-NW winds will
diminish this evening per decreasing instability, mixing within the
boundary layer. The 00z temperature profile on this evening's 00z Oakland
upper air sounding looks almost identical to last evening's, but the
big difference is the increase in water vapor below the subsidence inversion.

High pressure reaches into the Great Basin temporarily reversing the
SFO-WMC pressure gradient to weak offshore and flattening the SFO-SAC
gradient tonight into Sunday morning. A low pressure system arrives
from the north late Sunday and Monday.

Vicinity of KSFO...5 minute wind observations still show winds westerly
gusting to 20-25 knots. As inherited taf indicates, winds should begin
to subside below 20 knots by 04z or so. Winds continue to subside tonight,

.CLIMATE...

A few locations may be near record low temperatures Sunday morning
and possibly Tuesday morning next week. Temperatures will be mainly
below late February normals through early next week, but increasing
clouds, showers, and breezy winds with a low pressure system arriving
later Sunday into Monday should help keep lows above records on Monday.
