Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Medford OR 343 AM PST Tue Dec 5 2023

DISCUSSION
The region remains between systems this morning, though the next front is knocking on the door and will linger just offshore for much of the day today. Stable conditions ahead of this front are resulting in areas of valley fog in the Rogue Valley and Klamath Basin. Visibilities are wavering between half a mile to around 4 miles, so dense fog is not a concern at this time. However, there could be pockets of locally dense fog, so allow for some extra space between you and others for the morning commute today.

Dry conditions are expected for most the area today as the next front lingers offshore. This will allow for area rivers and streams to continue to recede from earlier rainfall before the next front passes through the region tonight into Wednesday. The Coquille at Coquille, however, is currently in flood stage and is expected to remain so through at least this evening, then oscillate near flood stage into Wednesday. A flood warning for the river remains in effect through at least Wednesday morning.

Satellite imagery shows low pressure centered in the Gulf of Alaska with a moist frontal system/atmospheric river extending south into British Columbia, Washington and off the coast of central Oregon. As previously mentioned, the bulk of the precipitation is expected to remain just offshore today, gradually move onshore this evening.
This front will be slow to move inland and looks to stall just along the coast tonight before getting a push inland Wednesday morning.
This will result in another round of significant rainfall at the coast and just inland Tue-Wed with most of that area receiving 1-3 inches (local amounts up to 5 inches in the coastal mountains). With the ground already saturated from this past weekend's rainfall, we expect at least some ponding of water on roadways again and minor flooding in areas of poor drainage. This will likely result in a second bump/rise in area creeks, streams and rivers (some of which could reach bankfull again). As such, we are maintaining the areal flood watch for western Douglas, Coos, Curry and western Josephine counties through Wednesday afternoon.

The remainder of the area will remain mostly dry through tonight, then the front will get a push inland with a high likelihood of rain for most areas on Wednesday (70-100% chance). Rain amounts for the Rogue Valley could reach up to half an inch Wednesday and QPF east of the Cascades, in the Shasta Valley and over NE California should be in the 0.25-0.50 inch range, though some of this will be snow by Thursday.

In addition to the rain, winds will also be a concern with this frontal system, especially late Wednesday morning into the afternoon. Winds will be breezy today, but will remain below advisory criteria with the strongest winds felt near and at the ridges east of the Cascades. Stronger winds are expected Wednesday as midlevel winds (700 mb) of 45-55 kts passes through with the front. This is likely to result in some advisory level wind speeds for portions of the East Side and potentially in the Shasta Valley as well. Look for updates regarding wind headlines for Wednesday.

Snow levels will be high to start, around 9000 ft today, then lower to around 6000 ft tonight into Wednesday morning. This will limit any winter impacts to the highest peaks through Wednesday afternoon.
Snow levels lower to around 4000 ft behind the front Wednesday evening though some snow could begin to accumulate up around Crater Lake as early as Wednesday afternoon. The bulk of the accumulating snow, however, will occur Wednesday night through Thursday night as another, colder Pacific disturbance moves onshore. Right now, there is a high probability of 6-12 inches of snow over the Siskiyous and more than 12 inches over the Cascades above 5000 feet from Lake of the Woods northward. Snow levels will continue to drop to around 3500 feet by Thursday morning, so some snow may reach to near Union Creek and/or Toketee Falls as well as the Siskiyou Summit. These locations might see 1-3 inches. But, the highway 97 corridor north of Klamath Falls (mainly Chiloquin northward) could see 3-6 inches of snow. Snow levels continue to drop to around 2500 feet by Friday morning, but precipitation will be ending by then.

As noted, a secondary, colder trough arrives early Thursday bringing another quick shot of precipitation and breezy winds, though weaker than Wednesday's expected winds. Precipitation tapers off by Friday morning as a brief upper ridge builds into the region and we'll see another break in the weather for Friday. The break is short-lived, however, with the next system arriving Saturday morning/afternoon.
Snow levels will quickly rise to around 6000-7000 ft with this warm front Saturday morning and afternoon, so winter impacts should be limited with this front. We could see another round of strong winds as models indicate 700 mb winds around 50 to 60 kt. Once this front passes through, the weather will quiet down as a large scale ridge builds over the eastern Pacific and essentially blocks the storm door. There could be a few weak systems that pass through early next week, but once precipitation tapers off Sunday, generally quiet weather is expected for the first half of next week. /BR-y

AVIATION
05/12Z TAFs...A front will approach the region today, then pass over the area through the day Wednesday. Expect MVFR and occasional IFR ceilings and low level wind shear along the coast and over the coastal waters today, with IFR and moderate to heavy precipitation late tonight into Wednesday morning.

Elsewhere, VFR conditions are expected to persist through today, with the exception of fog and low stratus in many area valleys this morning. However, areas of MVFR, precipitation, and terrain obscuration are expected to spread from west to east tonight into Wednesday morning as the front pushes through. -BPN

MARINE
Updated 200 AM Tuesday December 5, 2023...An active period of weather will continue this week over the waters. Gusty south to southwest winds will be common, along with southerly wind waves and long period west swell.

Gales will continue north of Gold Beach, and seas will remain steep to very steep through this morning. In addition, very large and steep seas of around 15 to 19 ft will continue to build to a peak around 16 to 22 ft this evening into early Wednesday morning. During this same time period, wind speeds are forecast to weaken slightly.
However, since seas are still expected to remain very large, this will result in a Hazardous Seas Warning across all the waters Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Additional disturbances Wednesday and Thursday will not be as strong, with southerly winds likely at advisory strength while high and steep seas slowly diminish. Winds and seas will reach a minimum late Friday, then another strong front is likely Saturday with gales possible. -Schaaf/DW

BEACH HAZARDS
Active weather continues this week. Seas will build throughout the day, and by late Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday morning, very large breaking waves of 25 to 30 ft are expected due to large long period west swell. Beach areas will not be safe places, especially around high tide this evening and Wednesday morning. In addition, another moderate risk for sneaker waves will be present this evening. If venturing to area beaches during this time, use caution when visiting and remember to never turn your back on the ocean! -BPN

HYDROLOGY
An areal flood watch remains in effect for the coast and just inland through Wednesday afternoon as another round of heavy rainfall returns today into Wednesday. A strong frontal system and associated atmospheric river (AR) will approach the coast from the Pacific today, then slowly move onshore. Most rivers falling now due to th ongoing break in the rainfall.
However, the Coquille River at Coquille, is above flood stage and will remain that way through at least this evening, if not into Wednesday morning. So, a river flood warning is out for that.
This evening into Wednesday's rainfall is expected to be 1 to 3 inches in a large portion of the watch area with locally up to 5 inches in the coast ranges of Curry County, where orographic enhancement will be maximized into the terrain. This is almost certain to cause ponding of water on roadways and at least minor flooding in areas of poor drainage. Additional rises are likely on rivers, creeks, streams. The good news is that the front will move inland and weaken, so rainfall rates should diminish with time. We'll continue to monitor the basins and update and flood hazard products. -Spilde
