Fxus66 kmfr 262159 afdmfr area forecast discussion national weather service medford or 259 pm pdt Mon jun 26 2017 Discussion The thunderstorm potential late today and this evening was the focus of this forecast. Strong thunderstorms have already occurred well north of our area... Mainly north of a line from bend to john day. Across southern oregon and far northern california, the area of thunderstorm development later this afternoon should be across siskiyou county into the siskiyous and cascades, klamath county, and northern lake county. There is sufficient moisture and instability to support thunderstorm initiation at higher elevations in this region and the steering flow will be from the southwest. There is a distinct difference in the cumulus field at 230 pm across the rogue valley (yes, we do look outside too). Not much cumulus development over the rogue valley but much more pronounced building cumulus clouds were over the siskiyous. The southern end of the rogue valley (ashland talent) has a greater chance of seeing a thunderstorm later today than points north and west where the airmass is more stable. Elsewhere, have taken the isolated thunderstorms out of southern and eastern modoc county and far southeast lake county where surface dewpoints have dropped considerably with much drier air above. Also, a thunderstorm has popped up just offshore of the douglas-lane county line. These elevated, not surface-based, convective storms will move north away from our area. Marine low stratus will also remain at the coast and into the coastal valleys. Not a whole lot to discuss beyond today with more typical benign summer weather this week. We added a slight chance of thunderstorms Tuesday late afternoon and evening to the cascades and siskiyous due to instability and the GFS model showing precipitation developing. For the rest of the forecast period the temperatures will be near to slightly above normal and probably dry with a more westerly flow aloft. Sandler Aviation 26 18z TAF cycle... Along the coast and into the umpqua valley, expect MVFR ifr CIGS throughout the TAF period. The challenge is the thunderstorm forecast for inland areas... A trough axis will be located just offshore this afternoon, and scattered thunderstorms over the western siskiyous northeastward into the cascades and east side are expected this afternoon. Confidence is lower in thunderstorm coverage in the rogue valley... As there isn't as strong of a trigger as yesterday. Though thunderstorms can't be ruled out in the umpqua valley, did not have the confidence to put in the taf. -msc Marine Updated 200 pm Monday, 26 june 2017... South to

southwest winds and light seas will persist through tonight. The thermal trough is expected to develop along the coast Tuesday and strengthen into Wednesday. This will result in the return of gusty north winds and steep to very steep wind driven seas. The strongest winds and seas are forecast from CAPE blanco south, where gales and very steep and hazardous seas are possible, but all areas will experience at least small craft advisory level seas. These conditions are likely to persist through the remainder of the week. -bpn cc Fire weather Updated 130 pm Monday, 26 june 2017... Unstable conditions will combine with an upper level disturbance moving in from the west to generate isolated to scattered storms over much of the forecast area this afternoon. Lightning amounts should be less than yesterday as moisture is less and there should be a quick decrease in storms from west to east as even drier air moves in and solar heating is lost. Also of concern is the potential for erratic and gusty winds near storms today. Gusts of 40 to 50 mph are possible near thunderstorms this afternoon and evening, especially for storms that develop east of the cascades. Outside of thunderstorms, gusty general west winds and continued low humidity may fan any new fire starts. A red flag warning continues for much of modoc county due to expected wind gusts of 30 mph and humidity 15 percent or less. Red flag warnings remain in effect for the potential of increased initial attack activity. Tomorrow there is a slight chance for thunderstorms over siskiyou county with some lingering instability and midlevel moisture. The rest of the week should be quieter as cooler and more stable conditions dominate. -cc sk Mfr watches warnings advisories Or... Red flag warning until 11 pm pdt this evening for orz625.

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors.

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
