Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Medford OR
829 AM PDT Wed Mar 22 2023

.UPDATE...The current forecast looks to be on track. While skies are
clear to start the morning, an upper level shortwave will bring
increased precipitation chances into the afternoon. With current
snow levels of 4000 feet, the first wave of precipitation is
expected to bring more of the showers that we've been experiencing
recently. A more substantial system is expected to arrive Thursday
morning, and its effects will be considered today. -TAD

&&

.AVIATION...21/12Z TAFs... Onshore flow has brought the return of
MVFR and local IFR conditions along the coast. Inland, expect mainly
VFR conditions. However, areas of IFR ceilings are possible in the
Umpqua, including at KRBG. However, this will be just a prediction
as the ASOS at KRBG is not currently sending observations, and
technicians will hopefully have the equipment working again soon.
Showers will develop Wednesday afternoon and evening with a chance
for thunderstorms along and just west of the Cascades. This will
result in areas of MVFR cigs and gusty winds in heavier showers or
thunderstorms, especially along and just west of the southern Oregon
Cascades, including KMFR. MVFR to IFR conditions area expected to
return to the coast again by Thursday morning, with MVFR conditions
expected to return to the Umpqua basin. -Sven

&&

.MARINE...Updated 400 AM PDT Wednesday, March 22, 2023...Gusty north
winds will gradually lower this morning. Steep to very steep and
hazardous wind driven seas are expected to continue into this
afternoon, with the steepest seas expected south of Coos Bay. Seas
improve this afternoon into tonight as winds ease.

There will be a brief break in conditions late tonight. Then another
system passes through the region on Thursday. This will bring
another round of gusty south to southwest winds along with an
increase in wind driven seas. In addition, a heavy, long period
northwest swell (13-15 ft @ 13-14 seconds) will follow late Thursday
into Friday with hazardous seas possible late Thursday morning into
Thursday evening. This will maintain steep to very steep seas
through the end of the week and into the weekend. -Sven

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 536 AM PDT Wed Mar 22 2023/

SHORT TERM...Today through Thursday night.

A seasonably cool and unstable weather pattern will continue
today with increasing showers. Showers and snow showers will
mainly be of light intensity, but a lengthy episode of
unseasonably cold and active weather will follow tonight through
the weekend (especially Thursday night into Saturday night) with
low snow levels.

A Winter Storm Watch remains in effect from late Thursday morning
through Friday for elevations above 2500 feet in eastern Curry,
Josephine, western Siskiyou, and eastern Douglas counties, and the
southern Oregon Cascades.

First, snow levels will be around 4500 to 5000 feet as isolated to
scattered light showers linger in northern California this
morning. Showers then increase this afternoon, mainly from the
coast to the Cascades as the next trough arrives from the west.
The associated shortwave will spread across the east side tonight
with up to 2 inches of snow and snow levels falling to 2500 to
3000 feet.

A cold front on Thursday will begin a more impactful series of
disturbances. Snow levels will remain around 2500 to 3000 feet
during Thursday then fall to 1000 feet Thursday night.

LONG TERM...From 12Z Friday to 12Z Tuesday. (From the Tuesday
afternoon discussion).

A pretty impressive winter weather pattern persists across the
region as we move past the Spring Equinox. The region will be in
the midst of a very cold flow out of the northwest Friday. Some of
the deterministic models and ensembles are showing very cold air.
850 mb temperatures will likely be around -5 to -6 C. Air this
cold is usually supportive of snow in the valleys west of the
Cascades during the winter. However, we are at the start of Spring
with a higher sun angle pushing daytime temperatures into the
lower to mid 40's according to the NBM. This should result in a
fair amount of potential instability in the lower sections of the
atmosphere. A few rumbles of thunder remain possible with hints of
snow making it to the valley floor. The precipitation type could
change to hail or even graupel at times at lower elevations.

This flow pattern will allow snow to accumulate, especially over
higher terrain with an addition 6 to 10 inches in the mountains near
Crater Lake and Diamond Lake.  This won't be a huge 24 hour total,
yet it will add to what already falls before Friday afternoon.  The
key point here remains how unusually cold this airmass is for late
March.  This is something more typical of January or December.

Eventually, high pressure will likely build over the region sometime
around Sunday.   This isn't guaranteed as the NBM keeps a 20 to 50
percent chance of precipitation over the forecast area on Sunday.
This is likely due to model uncertainties heading into the extended.

Lastly, we would like to discuss the potential for a stronger storm
system Monday or Monday evening into Tuesday. Both the ECMWF and
GFS are showing a strong cyclone building over the Pacific.
However, the ensembles suggest these two models are more outliers
at this time. There are suggestions that there will be a low out
there somewhere in the Pacific, yet it appears not a strong as
both of these deterministic models. In any case, the NBM shows a
30% chance of 8 inches of snow near Mt. Shasta City. If something
does form, it seems to be one of those southerly flow systems with
most of the impacts in northern California. -Smith
