What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory 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 small craft advisory went out at Jan 5, 9:49 PM PST, 4 hours 14 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 5, 9:49 PM PST, 4 hours 14 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Portland OR
949 PM PST Tue Jan 5 2021

Updated aviation and marine discussions.

.SYNOPSIS...The next in a series of frontal system reaches the coast
late today, and slowly migrates inland tonight and Wednesday. A
transitory upper level ridge moves over the area Wednesday night and
early Thursday for another brief break in the wet weather pattern.
Dry conditions hold through Thursday with offshore low-level flow.
Another frontal system moves into the area late Thursday through
Friday. The oscillating weather pattern looks to continue through at
least early next week, with weather systems moving across the area
about every 24 to 36 hours.

&&

.SHORT TERM...Tonight through Friday...Early afternoon water vapor
imagery revealed an elongated baroclinic zone extending from Hadai
Gwaii, south along 130W and out to near Hawaii. A fairly strong upper
jet could be seen wrapping into a surface low located near Hadai
Gwaii. An upper level ridge axis was centered over eastern Washington
and Oregon as of 21Z. KRTX dual-pol doppler radar showed some light
returns over southwest Washington and far northwest Oregon early this
afternoon, but a lot of this appeared to be virga. Light rain was
noted at KHQM and trace amounts at KSLE and KMMV.

The aforementioned frontal boundary will be slow to move inland as
multiple surface lows develop along the baroclinic boundary and the
front becomes parallel to the mid and upper flow. Favorable
isentropic lift, as seen on the 12Z GFS and NAM 290 and 300K
surfaces, will be generally confined to the coastal waters and
coastal areas through 06Z Wed. Isentropic upglide does not reach the
interior valleys until the 06Z to 09Z time frame. Thus, light
precipitation may occur at KPDX this evening, but the steadier
rainfall is not expected to arrive until just after midnight. The
ECMWF Integrated Water Vapor Transport (IVT) valid 06Z Wed shows a
narrow ribbon of 500-700 kg/m/s over the coastal waters and along the
coast. The IVT values diminish overnight.

The 12Z model runs are in good agreement showing the baroclinic zone
slowly sagging southeast Wed. Models also suggest the front will
stretch and weaken Wed as it moves across the area. The NAM and ECMWF
indicate the best dynamics Wed will be over southwest Oregon and
northwest California. The ECMWF ensembles show precipitable water
content (PWAT) around an inch along the central and south Oregon
coast 12Z Wed, decreasing to around 0.75 inches along the north
coast. The PWAT values decrease after 12Z Wed as the baroclinic zone
shifts inland. Thus, expect a few hours of moderate precipitation
late tonight into early Wed morning. Not anticipating much, if any,
hydrology issues, but will need to monitor the Grays River in
southwest Washington.

Snow levels tonight through Wed will remain near or just above the
main Cascade passes. The current winter weather advisory for the
south Washington and north Oregon Cascades looks good, with total
amounts 6-12 inches 06Z Wed through 00Z Thu. Will continue to leave
the Lane County Cascades out of the advisory as the NBM and 4km
WRF-GFS indicate lesser amounts for that area. A second short-wave
and associated upper level trough move inland late Wed afternoon,
which will finally push the existing baroclinic zone east of the
Cascades. Shower activity looks to dwindle fairly quickly Wed evening
as high pressure shifts over the area. Will keep some chance-type
POPS over the Cascades Wed night closer to the departing upper trough
and where modest orographic enhancement persists.

High pressure aloft is expected to reside over the region Thu
morning, but migrate east during the afternoon as the next eastern
Pac weather system approaches the area. Offshore low-level flow
develops early Thu and strengthens during the day. The 12Z NAM
suggests a peak KTTD-KDLS gradient around -6 to -7 mb Thu afternoon.
Models continue to struggle with the overall details Thu night and
Fri, specifically surface low intensity and track. The NAM deepens
the surface low to near 980 mb near 44N 130W 06Z Fri. The GFS is
slightly deeper (sub-980 mb) and a little more northwest. In
contrast, the ECWMF shows a 975 mb low center, but out near 48N 135W.
The ECMWF ensembles have come into better agreement, with most
members showing the low center close to the deterministic location.
There is the possibility of high wind for the coast late Thu night
through Fri morning, should the NAM and GFS verify. In any event, it
looks like another shot of precipitation Thu evening through Fri.
Weishaar

.LONG TERM...Friday night through Tuesday...The oscillating weather
pattern looks to continue through the extended period. Thus, expect
frontal systems every 24 to 36 hours. The deterministic GFS and ECMWF
agree that ridging  and offshore low-level flow return Fri night and
Sat. The operational runs diverge thereafter, with the ECMWF holding
on to high pressure through early Sun, while the GFS brings the next
front to the coast by 06Z Sun. Would tend to favor the ECMWF and this
has support from the overall mean 500 mb cluster valid 00Z Sun. A
theme that is become more apparent in the long term is the trend for
weaker weather systems. Roughly 50 percent of the individual ECWMF
members indicate no precipitation 06Z to 12Z Sun. Basically went with
the NBM POPS Sat night through Sun, but would not be surprised to see
these go lower with time.

The cluster analyses valid 00Z Tue show the upper level ridge shifted
east of the Cascades, anywhere from eastern Oregon/Washington to the
northern Rockies. The most likely scenario for the Sun-Tue time frame
is close to climatology, with generally 30-50 percent POPS.
Temperatures will continue to remain slightly above normal through
the period with snow levels at or above the Cascade passes. There is
no signal for low-elevation snow or an unseasonably cold air mass
through the extended period. Weishaar

&&

.AVIATION...The cold front continues to push eastward inland this
evening. Widespread VFR CIGs are beginning to lower along the
coast and inland locations will follow suit over the next several
hours. Rain and gusty southerly winds are accompanying this cold
front with the coast bearing the bulk of those impacts. KAST and
other coastal terminals could see gusts up to 30 kt with slightly
stronger winds aloft. With an increased pressure gradient, will
also see breezy easterly winds through the Columbia River Gorge
through 16Z Wednesday. Rain, becoming moderate at times,
combined with the wind will likely cause visibility to decrease
to MVFR or even IFR levels. However, this will mainly be during
the heaviest rain periods through 18Z Wednesday.

In the post frontal environment, rain will become showery and the
winds will rapidly decrease as they turn southwesterly. CIGs will
likely bounce between MVFR and low VFR levels through the day on
Wednesday after 21Z. Not expecting other impactful weather to
round out the forecast.

For detailed regional Pac NW weather information, go online to:
http://weather.gov/zse

KPDX AND APPROACHES...VFR becoming MVFR with rain for the next 24
hours. Could see periods of breezy winds with the cold frontal
passage with winds aloft around 30 kt. These winds not expected
to mix down. Could see some periods of reduced visibility at
times but will generally be short lived when it does occur. No
other impacts expected.   -Muessle

.&&

.MARINE...Gale force winds continue this evening with winds 25 to
30 kt with gusts up to 40 kt. Some isolated higher gusts nearing
45 kt are possible with the passage of the cold front this
evening. The gale warning will persist through the early morning
hours until winds drastically drop off behind the front. Could
see a period of small craft level winds during the transition.
Seas are comprised of a 16 to 19 ft swell and fresh southwesterly
swell creating combined seas of 21 to 24 ft at 13 seconds. The
high surf advisory has been cancelled due to the sea aspect and
the enhancement of the southerly fresh swell. The energy has
reached it's peak and should ease through the next couple of
hours.

The cold front will continue to push over the waters inland
through the morning hours, slowly weakening through Wednesday
afternoon. Conditions will remain active, albeit less than this
evening, through Wednesday morning until the swell and wind waves
ease. These more settled conditions will persist into Friday
before another system advances towards the waters from the North
Pacific. This next system is comprised of deepening low pressure
which may arrive Friday evening. The challenge with this system,
and one reason not to hang a hat on the forecast quite yet, is
that there is quite a bit of model variability. National models
are showing a very deep and closed area of low pressure which
would potentially bring another round of gales and marginal storm
force winds. Global models however are weaker and less organized
with less impacts. Decided to trend a bit more conservative but
either way, much more active and hazardous conditions expected
towards the weekend.  -Muessle
