Updated AVIATION discussion

DISCUSSION
Current radar observations show the initial main edge of frontal precipitation starting to push south into northwest Coos and Douglas counties. Larger showers in western Douglas ahead of the main band are moving east into the Toketee Falls area. The main concern for this morning is the area just east of this in northern Klamath County, around the Highway 138/97 junction and Chemult northwards. This region cooled below freezing overnight and sub- freezing temperatures around 30 degrees are still being reported as of writing this. With high snow levels and the potential for precipitation in this area, the showers moving into this region could result in freezing rain this morning. Take care if driving in this area this morning. By afternoon, temperatures should rise sufficiently above freezing to end the threat, but keep an eye out for lingering ice in shadowed areas. For more details on the forecast, see the previous discussion(s) below.

AVIATION
10/18Z TAFs...Light to moderate rain and wind shear at about 2000 feet over North Bend continues this morning. Visibilities and ceilings are expected to bounce between MVFR and IFR as showers move eastward over the Oregon coast, with wind shear decreasing this afternoon. Consistent IFR ceilings should settle in place over the coast this evening into early Sunday morning.

VFR ceilings are in place over west side valleys. Showers are expected over the Umpqua Valley later this morning then over the Rogue Valley by early evening, with conditions generally staying at VFR levels through the day. Ceilings and visibilities should lower to IFR or LIFR levels near or into early Sunday morning.

East side areas may see some scattered snow showers, but are generally expected to stay at VFR levels under high overcast ceilings.

Please be aware that ceilings and visibilities may be locally lower under showery activity, and that terrain may be obscured. -TAD

MARINE
Updated 800 AM Sunday December 10, 2023...Strong south winds ahead of and with a cold front will affect the waters today, gradually lowering in the late afternoon and evening. High and steep to very steep seas will continue today across the waters, with steepest seas north of Bandon. Seas will gradually lower late today, but remain steep through late this evening.

A weak thermal through develops along the coast early Monday with winds becoming northerly. Swell heights will diminish while sea conditions south of Gold Beach may barely cross the threshold into becoming steep Monday into Monday night.

Noticeable improvement is likely Tuesday into Wednesday. Forecast uncertainty increases from Wednesday onward, but a building long period west-northwest swell at 13 to 15 seconds is possible late Wednesday into Thursday morning.

PREV DISCUSSION
/Issued 243 AM PST Sun Dec 10 2023/

DISCUSSION...Satellite imagery this morning is showing lots of high cloudiness spreading across the area in advance of the next frontal system, which is still offshore. The high clouds have been thin enough to allow for some good radiational cooling in the valleys south of the Umpqua Divide (south of Glendale) and also east of the Cascades. Where low-level moisture is fairly deep, this has resulted in the formation of low clouds and fog. These are most prevalent in the Rogue/Illinois valleys as well as the Scott and lower Klamath River valleys.

The front offshore will continue to press southward and eastward today. Precipitation so far has been sparse in our forecast area, with only a few hundredths being reported in portions of Coos and NW Douglas counties. Amounts have been higher from Florence northward. This will change over the next 12 hours or so as precipitation increases in coverage through the remainder of the morning and through this afternoon. When all is said and done tonight or first thing Monday, many areas along the coast and inland across the Umpqua Basin to the Cascades will have 0.50-1.50 inches of rainfall. Precipitation will take some time to reach areas farther south and east and will likely fall apart completely before reaching portions of SE Siskiyou/southern Modoc counties tonight. Here in the Rogue Valley, we'll likely see a period of rain this afternoon/evening, but with much lighter amounts compared to the coast and other areas N&W. Right now, it looks like 0.10-0.25 of an inch for most in the Medford/Grants Pass/Ashland areas. East side areas north of the OR/CA border look to receive a trace to 0.10 of an inch with as much as 0.25 of an inch in the mountains and from Chemult north. It should be noted that areas along Highway 97 this morning from around Chiloquin northward have a slight chance of freezing rain. Right now, temp/dew point spreads are large enough such that most precipitation over there is evaporating before reaching the ground. It will be a race though this morning with temperatures rising to near or above freezing as the air mass moistens and precipitation moves in. Snow levels are pretty high, generally above 4500 feet where precipitation could move in as early as this morning. Impacts are unlikely, but those traveling in that region this morning should be aware of the risk. By afternoon, temperatures should rise sufficiently above freezing to end the threat.

As mentioned earlier, the front will push onshore tonight, but fall apart as it moves inland. Showers could linger into Monday in some areas, but precipitation chances should gradually dwindle through the day. High pressure will build in Monday night through Wednesday morning resulting in mainly dry weather, but also areas of low nighttime/morning low clouds/fog, especially in areas that receive rainfall today/tonight. We'll probably eke out a dry day in most areas Wednesday as the next front approaches the coast.
This front will also meet its demise as it moves onshore late Wednesday night or early Thursday morning. Most areas won't see any precip from this front, but there's a decent chance of rain (50-70%) at the coast. Models are showing the front lifting back to the north as a warm front Thursday night with the ridge rebuilding over the area late in the week.

Ensembles have been showing a closed low developing off the California coast next weekend. Some members bring this low toward the coast next weekend, but others maintain the upper ridge keeping the low offshore longer and resulting in a dry weekend.
Since it's still well out there, we've gone with the NBM in the extended, which brings slight rain chances (25% or less) back to the coast as early as Saturday, with a better probability of rain on Sunday (40-50% chance). The feeling is, however, that in these scenarios, a later arrival of precip is the better bet.

MARINE
Updated 200 AM Sunday December 10, 2023
Strong south winds ahead of an approaching cold front will continue over the coastal waters through the morning. The strongest winds will occur north of Port Orford.

The strong winds combined with a large westerly swell will create hazardous conditions to small craft for all waters through this evening.

A cold front will pass through the waters today into the evening with very slowly improving conditions while winds and high and steep seas remain highest in the northern portion of the waters. Moderate seas are likely by late tonight.

A weak thermal through develops along the coast early Monday with winds becoming northerly. Swell heights will diminish while sea conditions south of Gold Beach may barely cross the threshold into becoming steep Monday into Monday night.

Noticeable improvement is likely Tuesday into Wednesday. Forecast uncertainty increases from Wednesday onward, but a building long period west-northwest swell at 13 to 15 seconds is possible late Wednesday into Thursday morning.
