Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Medford OR
854 AM PDT Tue Mar 10 2020

Updated Marine Discussion

.UPDATE...
No updates have been made to the forecast at this time. Refer to
the discussion below for details on the forecast.

&&

.MARINE...Updated 830 AM PDT Tuesday 10 March 2020...A thermal
trough along the coast will strengthen into Thursday, then weaken
Thursday night into Friday. This will produce gusty north winds and
steep seas for most of the waters. Periods of gales and very steep
seas are possible Wednesday afternoon through Thursday evening,
strongest south of Cape Blanco. However very steep seas may develop
from Winchester Bay southward late Wednesday into Thursday. Winds
and seas are expected to peak Thursday, then gradually lower Friday.
A front will move across the waters on Friday. Then expect a cool
and showery pattern on Saturday into Sunday. Steep, westerly swell-
dominated seas will build behind this front Friday night and
Saturday. -CC

 &&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 411 AM PDT Tue Mar 10 2020/

DISCUSSION...It will remain dry through Thursday with cool to
chilly mornings and mild afternoons. This morning may end up being
the coldest for near and at the coast, especially north of Cape
Blanco and in sheltered areas. At last look North Bend was 34
degrees F and a frost advisory remains in effect until 10 am pdt
this morning. Temperatures this afternoon will be slightly milder
with not much variation from one day to the next through Thursday.

Skies will remain clear, however the latest satellite image that
shows low clouds are showing them developing in some of the deeper
valleys in the Umpqua and Coquille Basin and north end of the
Illinois Valley. Expect this to expand over the next few hours and
peak out in coverage shortly after daybreak. This should burn off
late this morning with clear skies.

Skies should remain clear tonight with a drier air mass overhead,
although still could not rule out patchy low clouds again in some
of the deeper valleys in the Umpqua Basin late tonight.

Overall a quiet pattern is expected into Friday morning. The
operational models are a bit faster with the arrival of the cold
front. This front is expected to push in from the northwest late
Friday morning, then move southeast Friday afternoon with
precipitation likely along the coast, coastal mountains, Cascades
and north of the Umpqua Divide. Several show measurable
precipitation at the north coast and north of the Umpqua Divide,
albeit light amounts.

Next weekend will be cool and unsettled with Saturday being the most
active in terms of precipitation. Sunday could also be showery, but
not as active of the upper low is progressive and moves south of the
area. Details on the long term follows from yesterdays afternoon
discussion below. -Petrucelli

LONG TERM...Friday through Monday...Warm and dry weather is
expected to continue on Friday. Then models and ensembles indicate
an upper level low tracking south along the coast and into the area
Friday night through Saturday night. This pattern will bring a shift
towards cooler and wet weather by Saturday. Model ensemble solutions
show variation in the track of the low and how close to the coast it
will track. The ECMWF mean favors the low tracking off the coast and
sending moisture into the area. This would result in higher
precipitation over the area Saturday and into Saturday night. The
GFS and GEFS ensemble favor the low tracking along the coast as
moves south into the area Saturday and Saturday night. With this low
position, the GEFS favors lower precipitation rates compared to the
ECMWF. Overall, expect a cool and showery pattern on Saturday with
lowering snow levels and widespread light to moderate showers. On
Sunday, the upper low may linger near the coast of southwest Oregon
before gradually shifting south. Snow levels may lower to western
valley floors by Sunday morning. However, showers are likely to be
mainly light during this period. We will continue to monitor the
forecast for the weekend and update as more details become
available.

Monday, another weak disturbance may move down into the area from
the north. Otherwise expect cooler conditions to continue Sunday
into Monday. Low temperatures may lower into the low 30s to upper
20s for inland western valleys Sunday and Monday. We may also see
temperatures in the lower 30s at the coast as well. -CC

AVIATION...For the 10/12Z TAF Cycle...VFR conditions will prevail
across the area through Tuesday night, except for areas of early
morning IFR cigs/vsbys in low clouds and fog in the Umpqua and
Coquille Basins. Gusty north winds will develop Tuesday afternoon
and evening along the coast and over the coastal waters.
