Area forecast discussion, Dec 25, 3:03 AM PST, 8 hours 55 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Sacramento CA 303 AM PST Sun Dec 25 2022 .SYNOPSIS... Dry and milder weather with night and morning Valley fog and stratus expected over Christmas weekend. An extended period of significant wet weather with high snow levels next week. && .DISCUSSION... Upper level ridge in place will bring another quiet day to the area before we transition into a very active weather pattern that will last at least through next weekend. Dense fog has developed across much of the Valley and we can expect dense fog to last into the mid to late morning. We still have a strong substance inversion just above the surface and it does look a bit stronger than yesterday. This may trap some of the moisture in the low levels as stratus. Highs will be mild once again but cooler temperatures can be expected in any areas that have fog/stratus linger. High clouds build in Sunday night and that will limit some of the fog development but some fog will be possible across the Valley. Deep troughing is then going to build over the west and that will bring multiple rounds of rain and snow through the week into next weekend. Light showers will be possible starting Monday afternoon mainly over the northern mountains as warm air advection start to develop over the area. Low level winds will amplify Monday night as the trough digs strengthening the warm front and bring widespread moderate to heavy rain over NorCal. This system will tap into deep Pacific moisture with the Integrated Water Vapor (IVT) pushing upwards of 1000 kg/ms and PWATs 1.0-2.0". The warm front with this system looks pretty strong and we will likely see temperatures slowly warm overnight Monday as it pushes through the area. The cold front will then work south through NorCal Monday morning into the afternoon. Moderate to heavy rain can also be expected along and ahead of the front. Activity will become more showery during the afternoon and evening except over the mountains where upslope flow will keep widespread rain/snow going into Wednesday morning. Localized flooding will be possible with this rain as streams and creeks rise and roadway flooding of poorly drained areas will become an issue as well. Some weak instability builds in right behind the cold front and that may bring a thunderstorm or two during late morning into the early overnight mainly from around Stockton north to Redding east into the foothills. CAPE looks limited and the thunderstorm threat should remain isolated. The amplifying low level jet is going to bring strong winds to the area Monday night into Tuesday. 850 mb winds increase to 50-70 knots ahead of the cold front with 700 mb winds 60-80 knots. Right now wind gusts of 35-55 mph can be expected across the Valley with the highest gusts in the northern Sacramento Valley and 50-85 mph winds over the mountains. With a good stream of deep Pacific moisture we will see high snow levels with the onset of the precip with them 7500-8500 feet. Cold air will begin to build in Tuesday afternoon and we will see snow levels start to fall falling to 4500-5500 feet Wednesday. 12-32" of snow is expected above 6500 feet with a few inches above 5000 feet through Wednesday afternoon. QPF totals through Wednesday afternoon are looking to be 1.50-3" in the Valley, 2.50-4.50" in the foothills, and 4-6" over the mountains. We are expecting a period of moderate to heavy rain but convective rain is looking limited, this should keep rain rates below burn scar thresholds. -CJM && .EXTENDED DISCUSSION (Thursday THROUGH Sunday)... Deep troughing is going to remain in place over the West throughout the extended period. This will continue our active weather with multiple rounds of rain and snow. Ensembles disagree with the exact timing on some of the waves of precip but it looks like we will see a short wave Thursday with another one Friday bringing widespread rain and snow. Additional rounds of widespread rain and snow is expected on New Year's Eve although this system is favoring a more southern track with the heaviest precip from about I-80 south. Moisture levels will remain elevated with all of these systems and moderate to locally heavy rain will be possible from time to time. Snow levels generally look to be between 5000-6000 feet but will rise above 6500 feet for a time on Friday. Mountain travel will be difficult mainly above 5500 through the weekend. -CJM && .AVIATION... Widespread IFR/LIFR conditions expected thru most of the Central Valley until 19Z-21Z, then MVFR expected to predominate. Widespread IFR/LIFR expected to redevelop after 06Z Monday. Elsewhere, VFR conditions will predominate next 24 hours. Surface wind gusts below 10 kts. && .STO WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Winter Storm Watch from Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday morning for Burney Basin / Eastern Shasta County-West Slope Northern Sierra Nevada-Western Plumas County/Lassen Park. Dense Fog Advisory until noon PST today for Carquinez Strait and Delta-Central Sacramento Valley-Motherlode-Northeast Foothills/Sacramento Valley-Northern Sacramento Valley-Northern San Joaquin Valley-Southern Sacramento Valley.
