AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...FIRST PARAGRAPH UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN FRANCISCO CA
345 AM PST SAT DEC 31 2005
.DISCUSSION...RAIN CONTINUES TO POUR IN THE N BAY AND THE RIVERS ARE
REALLY RISING. THE NAPA RIVER AT ST HELENA HAS REACHED A RECORD
STAGE. AT 3 AM IT WAS AT 19.6 FEET AND PREPARING TO CREST. THE
RECORD IS 18.5...SET IN 1986. MANY ROADS AND HIGHWAYS IN THE N BAY
ARE CLOSED. THE RUSSIAN RIVER IS FORECAST TO RISE TO AT LEAST 43 FEET
AT GUERNEVILLE BY THIS EVE.
AT 130 AM MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN WAS STILL FALLING ACROSS THE N BAY.
THE HEAVY RAIN HAS SHIFTED A LITTLE TO THE S...AS FAR AS SAN MATEO
COUNTY...AND THE COLD FRONT IS SLOWLY APPROACHING FROM THE NW BUT
THE N BAY WILL CONTINUE TO GET SOAKED UNTIL AROUND DAWN TDA MAKING A
TOTAL OF ABOUT 20 HOURS OF DRENCHING RAINS OVER THE REGION. 24 HOUR
RAINFALL TOTALS ENDING AT 1 AM IN THE NORTH BAY WERE GENERALLY 3 TO
6 INCHES. HEAVY RAIN IS EXPECTED TO MOVE S THROUGH THE DISTRICT
THIS MRNG AS THE COLD FRONT FINALLY SWEEPS ACROSS THE REGION. WHILE
THE RAIN WILL BE AS INTENSE AS IN THE N BAY...ITS DURATION WILL BE
MUCH SHORTER...ONLY 4-8 HOURS IN MOST PLACES. THIS WILL STILL BE
ENOUGH TIME TO DROP 1-3 INCHES FROM SAN FRANCISCO S WITH HEAVIER
AMOUNTS POSSIBLE IN THE SANTA CRUZ AND SANTA LUCIA MTNS.
ANOTHER ELEMENT OF THIS STORM IS WIND. GUSTS HAVE REACHED 68 MPH
AT ANGEL ISLAND...51 MPH AT THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE...AND 47 MPH AT
SFO AND WITH THE STRONGEST WINDS USUALLY JUST AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT
THE PEAK WINDS IN MOST AREAS WILL PROBABLY OCCUR FROM ABOUT 4-8 AM
TDA.
BY MIDAFTN WE SHOULD FINALLY BE DONE WITH THE RAIN AND WIND...AND
COASTAL FLOODING ISSUES WILL END WITH THE RECEDING OF THE TIDE. WE
SHOULD SEE A BREAK IN THE WX FROM SAT AFTN UNTIL SUN AFTN WHEN THE
NEXT STORM ROLLS IN. THIS ONE IS OUT N OF HAWAII...IT DOESNT LOOK
TOO STRONG AT THE MOMENT BUT ITS SUPPOSED TO DEVELOP GOOD DYNAMICS
WITH STRONG DIFFLUENCE AND COLD ADVECTION...AND RAIN WILL RESUME IN
THE N BAY SUN AFTN. UNLIKE THE CURRENT STORM...THE SUN SYSTEM LOOKS
PROGRESSIVE SO IT SHOULD MOVE STEADILY SEWD THRU THE DISTRICT WITH
ONLY A FEW HOURS OF HEAVY RAIN IN ANY ONE SPOT. STILL...THIS WILL
NOT HELP THE FLOOD SITUATION ON THE RUSSIAN AND NAPA RIVERS AND ITS
CONCEIVABLE THAT THEY COULD STAY ABOVE FLOOD STAGE UNTIL SOMETIME ON
MON. THE SUN STORM LOOKS LESS WINDY THAN THE CURRENT ONE AS THE
PARENT SURFACE LOW WILL TRACK MUCH FARTHER N. THE MODELS HAVE BEEN
DEPICTING A SPLIT RAIN PATTERN FOR THIS SYSTEM FOR SEVERAL DAYS WITH
ONE SHOT OF HEAVY RAIN MOVING THRU OUR REGION SUN PM WHILE ANOTHER
HITS SRN CA.
BY MON AFTN WE SHOULD FINALLY BE OUT FROM UNDER THE GUN AS RIDGING
BEGINS TO DEVELOP AND SHIFT THE STORM TRACK TO THE NW. WE MAY NOT
BE COMPLETELY DRY THE REST OF THE WEEK AS THE MODELS BRING A SERIES
OF SHORTWAVES ONSHORE...BUT NO MORE HEAVY RAIN IS FORECAST THRU SAT.
&&
.MARINE...STORM FORCE WINDS ARE STILL BLOWING AT ANGEL ISLAND SO
WILL KEEP STORM WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL NOON TODAY. GALES WILL
CONTINUE IN THE NORTHERN WATERS UNTIL 9 AM AND IN THE SOUTHERN
WATERS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. LARGE SWELLS CONTINUE OVER THE
COASTAL WATERS AND THE HIGH SURF ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT.
ALTHOUGH THERE A BRIEF LOWERING OF THE SEAS IS FORECAST ON SUNDAY...
THEY WILL RAMP UP SUBSTANTIALLY LATER IN THE WEEK. WILL
EXTEND THE HIGH SURF ADVISORY THROUGH MIDWEEK.
&&
.AVIATION...NASTY MORNING FOR BAY AREA TERMINALS AS THE SLOW MOVING
FRONT MOVES SOUTH ACROSS THE AREA. LOW CEILINGS AND VISIBILITY
RESTRICTIONS IN PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE
MORNING. ALSO...WIND GUSTS AT SFO CONTINUE TO BE GREATER THAN 30
KNOTS AND AN AIRPORT WEATHER WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR SFO
THROUGH 7AM. HOWEVER THAT WILL BE EXTENDED THROUGH NOON AS
THE STRONG WINDS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH.
