PZZ300 805 Am Pdt Sun Jun 2 2024
Synopsis for the southern oregon coastal waters - A front will move into the waters this morning with moderate south winds. Stronger gusts are expected within 30 nm of shore north of cape blanco this afternoon. The front will move inland this evening with winds briefly diminishing, then increasing again as another front moves in tonight. This front will move inland Monday morning with winds shifting to the west and gradually diminishing, but a west swell will increase during the day.

DISCUSSION
No changes are needed to the forecast this morning.
Cloud cover ahead of an approaching front will persist through the day. Rainfall chances along the coast and over the Cascades will increase through the day, with more widespread showers starting this evening and into Monday morning.
Please see the previous discussion for more detail about the short- and long-term forecasts. -TAD

02/12Z TAFs...along the coast and just offshore, IFR/LIFR conditions are already occurring. A strong front for June standards will arrive at the coast on Sunday morning, then slowly push inland during the day resulting in ceilings lowering MVFR with terrain obscurations in the afternoon, especially west of the Cascades. Low level wind shear will be an issue for areas north of Cape Blanco, including North Bend, and evidence suggest it could be a concern for Roseburg, thus low level wind shear this has been added to the Roseburg TAF. Gusty winds are expected at the coast, and east of the Cascades, and across the higher terrain west of the Cascades. -Petrucelli

Updated 800 AM Sunday, June 1, 2024...A strong front for this time of the year will move into the waters this morning bringing increasing south winds with Small Craft Conditions likely for most of the waters. The exception will be south of Brookings.
Also areas beyond 5 nm from shore west of Bandon, closer to shore north of Lakeside, and out to 60 nm from shore west of Florence could experience low end Hazardous Seas Warning conditions late this morning into early this evening. Therefore a Hazardous Seas Warning has been issued for the areas mentioned above. The front will also bring a period of moderate to heavy rainfall this afternoon into Monday morning.
The front will move inland late this afternoon and winds will diminish briefly, but will increase again later this evening as another front will approach the waters tonight bringing increasing southwest winds. At the same time west swell will increase some and the combination of both will keep the Small Craft conditions going and will eventually impact all of the waters by early Monday morning.
Another front will bring increasing south winds Tuesday, The general consensus is winds are not expected to be as strong as with the first two fronts. However, hazardous conditions are likely to continue through the week, though due to varying weather patterns. A heavier, longer period swell (9 to 12 ft at 12 to 14 seconds) will move into the waters Tuesday night into Wednesday. Meanwhile, a strong thermal trough will develop along the south Oregon coast, bringing the return of strong north winds and steep to very steep wind driven seas Wednesday and lasting through Friday afternoon.

SHORT TERM...A warm front is approaching the coast this morning.
This front will move inland during the day today, followed by a strong and very, moist cold front tonight and Monday morning.
This frontal system is unusually moist for this time of year and is associated with a strong plume of moisture (atmospheric river)
with precipitable water values of 1.5" or higher and moisture transport values (IVT) of 600-1000 kg/ms.
As the warm front moves inland today, overrunning will produce light precipitation along and west of the Cascades. The main belt of moisture arrives tonight, ahead of the cold front which will pass through the area early Monday. Snow levels will be high (7500 to 11000 feet) ahead of the front so expect rainfall even in the higher mountains. Precipitation amounts will be unusually high for early June, especially for coastal areas, across northern/central Douglas County and into the southern Oregon Cascades. Moderate to heavy rainfall (1 to 2.5 inches but locally up to 3 inches in coastal mountains) is expected along the coast, coast ranges, northern Douglas County and into the southern Oregon Cascades (mainly north of Highway 140), with the rest of the area seeing mostly light to moderate rain. However, its worth noting that some locally heavier amounts up to an inch are possible in southwest Josephine and far western Siskiyou counties.
Along the coast, where rainfall will be heavy at times, models support 1 hr rainfall rates reaching 0.25 to 0.5 inches tonight.
Areas that see the heaviest rain, mainly along the coast, may experience localized ponding of water on roadways, especially in urban areas or areas of poor drainage.
Behind the front, there will be some lingering, light post- frontal showers Monday afternoon across the area, with precipitation tapering off by Monday evening.
Additionally, with this front, gusty west winds are expected ahead of and with the frontal passage. The strongest winds are expected along the immediate coast, over the ridgelines, and east of the Cascades. Our typical windy valley locations (Shasta and Rogue) will not be impacted as much due to the mostly westerly flow, but east of the Cascades, 700mb winds of around 45-55 kt and support wind advisory conditions (with guidance showing gusts around 45 kt) along higher terrain and in the Summer Lake area.
These winds are expected to peak Sunday night through early Monday afternoon.
A weaker front moving inland north of the area Monday night into Tuesday morning, may bring some light rain to northern Coos and portions of Douglas counties. Then, confidence is moderate to high for a significant warm up late in the week as a high pressure ridge builds into the area. A weak disturbance may move over the ridge which combined with mid level moisture moving up from the south- southwest, may bring a chance for thunderstorms, as early as Thursday, to central and eastern portions of the area.
Confidence is low on the details of the thunderstorm forecast and we will continue to monitor this portion of the forecast. For additional details on the warm up and thunderstorm/shower chances, please see the previous discussion below.
LONG TERM...Tuesday through Saturday night.
After the wet start to the work week, temperatures on Tuesday are anticipated to trend 10 degrees warmer with highs slightly warmer than normal for this time of year.
This trend of warming temperatures will continue into Wednesday as high pressure begins to build over the four corners and some light east to northeast flow develops over southern Oregon. Models suggest a trough over the Pacific will be lingering and that could influence our weather by Thursday.
The latest deterministic models hint at convection and thunderstorms developing over southern Oregon and northern California as a weak shortwave begins to ride over the ridge on Thursday. The GFS denotes some modest instability around 1000J/kg of convective available potential energy with some modest shear at 35 knots out of the south. The ECMWF also initiates some convection over northern California Thursday afternoon and evening. The NBM PoP forecast is most confident is shower or storm active east of the Cascades, although we can't rule out storms west of the Cascades as well. In any case, Thursday will be a day to watch with regards to thunderstorms in future model runs.
The summer like temperatures continue towards the end of the week with highs in the upper 90's and some warmer lower temperatures as well. The NWS heat risk algorithm is picking up on some elevated heat risk due to warm daytime temperatures on Friday and Saturday, although it appears the overnight lows cool off enough to dismiss the need for any heat products at this time. Regarding the chance for 100 degrees in a few of the valley locations, it appears the chances have lowered a bit compared to a few days ago. The upper level ridge doesn't appear as built in and temperatures could trend lower if the ridge ends up farther to the east. The inverse could also happen as temperatures could move higher with a more westward position. In any case, the chance of 100 degrees in Medford and Montague is roughly 35% on Friday.
Overall, thunderstorms on Thursday and the moderate heat risk on Friday into Saturday are the big weather features in the extended forecast. Weather risk to the population at large is low, although heat will bring an increased threat to those that are sensitive to heat in valleys west of the Cascades.
