Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Medford OR
831 AM PST Sat Feb 23 2019

.UPDATE...Extensive cloud cover and precipitation have overspread
the area this morning. For the most part, rain and snow have been
light, but some areas in the mountains have picked up a few inches
of snow as snow levels hover around 3000 feet. Light precipitation
will continue today, then will intensify beginning this afternoon
and evening. Meanwhile, snow levels will slowly rise to around
4000 feet tonight.

Several days of precipitation are in store for the area, with rain
and mountain snow continuing until at least Wedensday. A diverse
suite of watches, warnings, and advisories remains in place,
covering snow (PDXWSWMFR), wind (PDXNPWMFR), and flood (PDXFLAMFR)
concerns. Many of these will be updated today, and additional
headlines may be warranted. For more details and information on
these and the rest of the forecast, see the previous discussion
below. -BPN

&&

.AVIATION...For the 23/12Z TAFs...Rain is occuring along the coast
and that precipitation will push in throughout the day.  Expect a
mixture of VFR and MVFR at most TAF sites.  However, MVFR will
become more likely tonight as the air mass moistens, and rain and
snow intensify. Freezing levels are expected to remain between
3500 and 4000 feet. -Smith

&&

.MARINE...Updated 815 AM PST Saturday 23 February 2019...Relatively
calm conditions will today. A weak front will move into the area
late tonight into Saturday bringing increasing southwest winds, but
winds will remain just below advisory conditions. Another front and
surface low pressure will approach the area Sunday. South winds
increase ahead of this, bringing conditions hazardous to small
craft. South winds increase further to gales as the surface low
moves into the coast late Sunday night into Monday. Seas will build
in response, becoming wind driven and very steep and hazardous
Sunday night into Monday, with the most hazardous conditions
expected south of Cape Blanco.

Seas will gradually subside Monday into Tuesday with overall sea
conditions remaining relatively calm through at least Thursday. In
the meantime, however, several very moist fronts will move through
the waters bringing periods of moderate to heavy rain. /BR-y

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 408 AM PST Sat Feb 23 2019/

DISCUSSION...A change to a very active wet pattern with rising
snow levels, and very high snow amounts at higher elevations on
moving into the region. The combination of heavy precipitation
rates and rising snow levels melting lower elevation snow will
cause significant rises in streams, creeks and rivers into early
next week. The main river that is expected to experience possible
flooding is the Coquille, currently expected to reach flood stage
Monday night. However, several other creeks will possibly flood,
but are not predicted to reach flood stage at this time.

Current radar, observations and camera images are showing showers
moving in at this time, with snow showing on many cameras in the
Cascades. Current observations are in line with expected snow
levels. As the 700 mb flow backs to the southwest during the day,
the 850 mb temperatures slowly rise, and with them the snow
levels also slowly rise during the day. Snow levels are expected
to be around 3500 feet later this afternoon. As the axis of the
110 kt jet slides farther south tonight, the region sits in a very
dynamically favorable right entrance region of the jet in the also
favorably speed divergence area, combining to bring
increased vertical motion over the area. This increased vertical
motion will combine with the first trickles of the Atmospheric
river flow that increases through the day Sunday to increase
precipitation rates over the region.

This pattern remains in place into Monday with the front remaining
stalled over the region in the atmospheric river flow with 6 hour
precip rates over the burn scars in SW Oregon indicating a possible
concern for debris flows and with observations of log jams in the
Taylor Creek burn scars some damage to forest roads might also be
possible.

A shift in the indicated path of the low Monday morning into
Tuesday morning focus more of the precipitation to the coastal
ranges from the Cascades, but very high snow amounts are still
expected in the Cascades, and the increased rain amounts west of
the Cascades will increase the chances of flooding in that area,
and the prolonged heavy rates on burn scars will increase the
chances of debris flow and mud slides and forest road damage.
