137 FXUS66 KSEW 291717 AFDSEW Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Seattle WA 1017 AM PDT Fri May 29 2026 .SYNOPSIS... Upper level low well south of the area will make its way into the Plains Saturday while an upper level trough remains offshore. Onshore flow in the lower levels. The trough will move inland Saturday night. Upper level ridge building over Western Washington Sunday will remain over the area through Tuesday. A weakening front will move through Wednesday. && .SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... No major changes to the short/long term sections this morning. -HPR Middle and high level clouds associated with the convection have spread over parts of Western Washington. In the lower levels a marine push in progress with stratus already into the Central Puget Sound at 3 am/10z. Doppler radar has convergence zone showers over Snohomish and King county. Temperatures were in the 50s. Little change in the pattern the next couple of days with an upper level trough offshore and varying degrees of low level onshore flow. Convergence zone moving very little this morning before dissipating this afternoon. Middle level clouds moving out of the area later today but with the onshore flow remaining intact skies will be at least mostly cloudy this afternoon after a cloudy morning. Little change in the temperature today with highs near 60. Another surge of westerlies through the Strait of Juan de Fuca tonight could re-energize the convergence zone over the Central Puget Sound. Mostly cloudy to cloudy skies outside the convergence zone. Lows tonight in the 40s. Marine layer over the area Saturday will retreat back to the coastline in the afternoon as low level onshore flow begins to weaken. Temperatures slightly warmer with highs in the upper 50s to mid 60s. Weak upper level trough offshore moving inland Saturday night will have little in the way of moisture associated with it. Onshore gradients continuing to weaken Saturday night and by Sunday the low level flow goes light. Upper level ridge beginning to build over the area Sunday. This along with the weakening onshore flow will minimize the marine layer Saturday night into Sunday morning resulting in a sunny day Sunday. Highs getting back to near normal, 60s and lower 70s. A little on the cool side Sunday morning with the colder locations getting into the upper 30s. Lows elsewhere in the 40s. Seattle-Tacoma airport has recorded 0.02 inches of rain this morning. This is the 63rd day with measurable rain so far this year. If there is no more rain days this month this will tie for the 5th lowest number of rain days in the first five months of the year since records started at the airport in 1945. Have to go back to 1985 to find a year with a lower number of rain days ( 56 days ) in January through May. The normal number of rain days for January through May in Seattle is 78 days, record low 54 days in 1949, record high 98 days in 1961. Felton && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/... Extended models in good agreement with the upper level ridge remaining over Western Washington through Tuesday. Low level flow turning offshore Monday night into Tuesday making Tuesday possibly the warmest day of the year. The heat is short lived. Surface ridge out ahead of the next weather system moving into the coastal waters Tuesday night. Rapidly increasing onshore flow and the resulting marine push will bring clouds and cooler temperatures back to the area. What is left of the front moving through Wednesday. Zonal flow aloft with low level onshore flow Thursday. Highs Monday in the 70s and lower 80s warming to the 80s and lower 90s Tuesday. Moderate HeatRisk Tuesday. Highs cooling into the 60s and lower 70s Wednesday with mid 60s to mid 70s Thursday. Lows in the 40s Sunday night, mid 40s to mid 50s Monday night through Wednesday night. Not expecting any records to be broken Tuesday. && .AVIATION... Southwest flow aloft will develop today with a broad upper level trough over the Gulf of Alaska. Onshore flow continues in the low levels. Showers continue across the area, with convergence showers across the Sound and a band of showers currently moving east of the Sound. Current conditions at the area terminals are a mix of IFR to MVFR across the interior in shower activity and VFR outside of the shower activity. A gradual lifting of ceilings is expected this afternoon, but areas of MVFR may linger around any remaining convergence zone activity. Most areas should improve to VFR by early evening. KSEA...MVFR ceilings with scattered showers are expected to continue into the terminal through midday. Ceilings are then expected to gradually lift with shower activity diminishing. VFR is expected after around 22Z. Surface winds S/SW 7-12 knots this morning will become NE at 8-12 kt by this afternoon, around 22Z. 27/14 && .MARINE... Strong onshore flow will persist today with gales expected along the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Winds will remain between 15-25 kt across the coastal waters before easing late tonight. Seas will hover between 10-16 ft throughout the day, before subsiding to 7-9 ft late tonight into Saturday. Onshore flow will ease over the weekend allowing for winds and seas to continue to ease and subside. Weak offshore flow will develop early next week with a thermal trough forming near the coast. 27/14 && .HYDROLOGY...

Warmest day will be Tuesday with Moderate HeatRisk in the lowlands north of Salem. Dry weather persists through Tuesday. Cooler temperatures return Wednesday with a slight chance of rain. && .SHORT TERM...Friday afternoon through Sunday night...Radar imagery Friday afternoon shows the band of showers that moved east through NW OR and SW WA this morning has moved east of the Cascades. A trough over the northeastern Pacific has lowered upper heights over the PacNW, bringing fairly zonal and onshore flow to the region through Saturday. This general pattern has brought cooler temperatures to the region with interior lowland high temperatures today and Saturday expected to peak below normal for late May in the mid to upper 60s with 50s along the coast. Normal high temperatures for interior lowland locations are around 70-71 degrees this time of year. A weak shortwave along the flow this morning interacting with lingering moisture from last night`s storms initiated this morning`s showers and is producing locally breezy westerly winds along the coast, terrain, and for inland locations along and north of the Columbia River. Another shortwave on Saturday will keep similar conditions, though winds will be slightly less breezy. Sunday however will be a day of transition as upper level high pressure begins building over the northeast Pacific. This will bring a gradual increase in temperatures, and the overall weather will dry through all layers of the atmosphere as northeasterly flow aloft ushers in warmer and drier air. Even with the warmer air filtering in, we are still expecting seasonable temperatures with interior lowland temperatures in the low to mid 70s. Due to clear skies, overnight temperatures will be favorable for cooling with lows on Sunday night into Monday morning being in the upper 40s. -03/27 .LONG TERM...Monday through Thursday...Monday starts the first of two days of drastically increasing temperatures. Ensemble models are in good agreement of the ridge of high pressure intensifying, and the ridge axis shifting closer to the shore. In fact, the differences between 500 mb ensemble clusters is minimal. This ridging is combined with widespread east flow aloft will bring significantly warmer temperatures in the midlevels. 850 mb temperatures will rise to around 12-14 deg C. This pattern will cause temperatures to spike once again by about 10-15 deg F with highs forecast to be in the low to mid 80s for the interior lowlands, in the upper 60s to low 70s along the coast, and the Cascades in the 60s. There is currently around a 25-45% chance of the greater Portland-Vancouver Metro area seeing highs of 90 deg F or more on Monday, with the central Willamette Valley sitting closer to 15-25%. Elsewhere, chances are less than 5%. The big component to consider on Monday is the urban heat island effect and thus why Portland will be warmer. Overnight temperatures will still cool, but there`s a 25-35% chance they remain above 60 degrees in the greater Portland metro area. This is due to the easterly flow aloft causing a weak downslope feature which will cause warming from compression within the lower elevations. Tuesday is marked to be the hottest day of the week. There is a 60-75% chance that the Portland-Vancouver area will see highs of 90 deg F or higher, around 40-50% in Salem, 45-55% in Longview, and 15-20% in Eugene. If we were to bump up that temperature to 95 deg F or greater, the Portland area remains the highest around 20-35% chance while other urban areas and along the I-5 corridor have less than a 10% chance. There`s a 25-35% chance low temperatures remain above 60 degrees in the Portland-Vancouver metro area, increasing to 40-60% chance in the Columbia River Gorge. Elsewhere, lows of 50-55 deg F are expected. There is currently Moderate HeatRisk for the greater Portland-Vancouver metro area, lower Cowlitz and Columbia Valley, and Columbia River Gorge. However, the chance of Major HeatRisk in the greater Portland- Vancouver Metro has lowered to less than 10% due to a combination of high temperature probabilities lowering slightly and low temperatures remaining below 60 degrees. Moderate HeatRisk means that those without access to sufficient cooling and hydration may be impacted by the heat. Therefore, take precautions on Tuesday if participating in outdoor activities - especially in the afternoons during peak heating. Luckily this heat will be short lived as a low pressure system from the Gulf of Alaska deepens in the northeastern Pacific and pushes the high pressure east. Guidance indicates a weak upper shortwave and surface front will push through the region late Tuesday into early Wednesday, which will usher in cooler temperatures for Wednesday and Thursday. There`s 70-90% that interior lowland temperatures will fall below 80 degrees into the low to mid 70s. Some uncertainty in the exact pattern leaves that 10-20% chance of temperatures remaining in the 80s. There are slight chances of light precipitation late Tuesday into Wednesday morning, mainly limited to the coast and Coast Range as the dry airmass in place will likely cause the front to weaken as it approaches land. On Thursday, the shortwave moves east and 500 mb clusters are in pretty good agreement that zonal flow takes over briefly with dry weather and similar temperatures to Wednesday. -03/27 && .AVIATION...Satellite imagery and surface observations continue to show marine stratus, resulting in generally VFR conditions with pockets of MVFR conditions across the airspace. Persistent onshore flow will likely result in coastal locations returning to a VFR/MVFR mixture around 04Z Saturday, with inland locations maintaining VFR conditions above FL040 through the remainder of the TAF period. However, some clearing is expected overnight and could result in pockets of MVFR to LIFR conditions. As to the timing, duration and location of these lowered flight conditions, confidence remains low at this time. Gusty, north/northwesterly winds up to 25 kt expected along the coast through around 04Z Saturday. Also, expect gusts up to 20 kt for inland locations through 03Z Saturday. KPDX AND APPROACHES...VFR conditions above FL040 expected through the TAF period. North/northwest gusts up to 20 kt expected after 00Z Friday through 06Z Friday. /42 && .MARINE...High pressure remains over the area with a persistent northwesterly swell and north/northwest winds. North/northwest winds 10-13 kt with gusts up to 20 kt through Sunday morning. Winds expected to increase on Sunday with gusts up to 25 kt across all waters as high pressure strengthens and results in a more summer like pattern. Cannot rule out gusts as high as 30 kt in the waters south of Lincoln City, OR on Sunday. As Monday approaches, winds are expected to fall below Small Craft Advisory Criteria. Seas 9 to 11 ft will gradually subside to 6 to 8 feet by late this afternoon/tonight and look to hold through at least the start of next week. A series of strong ebbs will take place on the Columbia River Bar each evening through at least Sunday. /42 && .PQR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OR...None. WA...None.

Southern waters will have these conditions first before expanding to all waters Sunday. South waters could have very steep seas Sunday as well, and a Hazardous Seas Watch has been issued. Conditions will remain hazardous to small craft during this time. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 208 PM PDT Fri May 29 2026/ SYNOPSIS... Conditions trend drier and cooler into tonight. Freezing temperatures are probable east of the Cascades tonight and Saturday night. There is a low chance of showers or a few thunderstorms in northern California Saturday afternoon. A warming trend will begin Sunday and continue into Tuesday as high temperatures will be well above normal. DISCUSSION... Still some showers on radar this afternoon as this upper level low moves out of the forecast area. Some drier air is starting to filter in, although plenty of cumulus clouds remain in the area this afternoon. With the passing of a cold front according to WPC surface analysis, we`ll see temperatures remain below normal and cool tonight. Temperatures trend about 6 to 12 degrees lower with the biggest drop east of the Cascades. This will lead to freezing temperatures in some sections of Lake and Klamath counties. The probability of low temperatures <32 F in Klamath Falls and Lakeview is 45% and 40% tonight and 65% and 50% Saturday night. Even with the passing of this cold front, temperatures should move a little higher on Saturday with cloud cover in the morning. That cloud cover will clear out during the afternoon as drier air mixes into the boundary layer and mid levels. Models still have a low chance of showers or perhaps a few thunderstorms in northern California Saturday afternoon. The thunderstorm probabilities/PoPs are between 10-15% in sections of northern California. The thermodynamics look pretty poor on the forecast soundings, so virga showers seem most likely. By Sunday, conditions will continue to dry and a short wave will combine with some other upper level energy over the northern Rockies. Eventually, a cut off low will develop over Idaho and Montana late Monday into Tuesday. Main impact for our area will be light easterly breezes over the Cascades and some notably drier and warmer air. Highs will push towards 90 here in Medford on Tuesday and upper 60`s along the coast. One could analyze a thermal trough here as well with the 1000-500 mb thickness contours. A 500 mb ridge briefly builds, so that will also contribute to our notable warm up by Tuesday. Eventually, temperatures cool a bit after Tuesday, although remain a few degrees above the normal high for this time of year. Overall, low impacts from the weather for the next few days with respect to temperatures. The extreme forecast index(EFI) has some values around 0.8 here on Tuesday, although that just hints at unually warm temperatures, nothing extreme for this time of year. Lows are well into the 50`s, so heat risk is still very low. AVIATION...18Z TAFS... IFR/LIFR will persist along the coast through late this morning impacting KOTH, gradually lifting and improving to MVFR late this morning/early this afternoon before reaching MFR. Umpqua Basin will remain in MVFR through this morning before improving to VFR through the remainder of this cycle. KMFR will improve to VFR as it is toggling between MVFR and VFR. KLMT should remain in mostly VFR throughout this cycle with rainfall through early this afternoon. Otherwise, typical diurnal breezes expected today. && .MFR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

Saturday is expected to be mainly dry with gradual clearing skies although temperatures remain slightly below seasonal normals. A warming and drying trended is expected to start Sunday and increase into next week. && .KEY MESSAGES... -Slightly cooler than normal conditions with marine influence remaining strong through Saturday. -Breezy winds at the coast this weekend. -Warmer and drier conditions build Sunday into early next week. .DISCUSSION...The upper level low that was impacting the area has moved off to the east and a brief period of high pressure is building in. A few showers or even a thunderstorm over the mountains are still possible this afternoon. There were quite a few clouds this morning and much of the area is seeing them linger into the afternoon. Tonight a weak shortwave shortwave moves by to the north of the area bringing some additional clouds and possibly some drizzle to the coastal areas. By Saturday afternoon this is expected to be past the area and will likely keep any showers or thunderstorms to the east of the area. As high pressure builds into the area Saturday afternoon gusty north winds are expected at the coast. Winds of 15 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph are possible. Saturday night into Sunday morning the winds are the coast and in the valleys will diminish, but a few thousand feet above ground the northeast winds are expected to remain elevated or increase to 15 to 20 mph with higher gusts. Sunday afternoon breezy northwest winds are expected along the coast again. Inland temperatures are expected to warm into the 80s and the marine influence is expected to be fairly limited. Offshore flow is expected again Sunday night, but may be weaker than Saturday night. Inland highs are expected to continue to warm and the upper 80s to low 90s are expected. The marine influence is expected to be fairly shallow and remain limited to the more immediate coastal areas. Monday afternoon or overnight it appears that the upper level ridge moves past the area. This looks like it will allow the marine layer to return bringing fog and low clouds back to the coast. This will keep the immediate coast and near coastal areas cooler and more moist on Tuesday. Tuesday eastern Trinity and eastern Lake counties will see one more day of warming with highs around 90. Wednesday and Thursday the upper level trough slowly pushes closer to the area. This will bring a more concerted marine push as well as some cooler air aloft will lower temperatures across the area. This trough could bring a few light showers over the weekend, but confidence is low on this. Only two of the four ensemble clusters bring some light rain on Saturday. MKK && .AVIATION...Satellite imagery depicts low clouds already clear out over KCEC, while low clouds persist around the HUmboldt Bay and vicinity. This is promoting prevailing LIFR with low ceilings and visibility in mist. Otherwise, conditions are still expected to continue improving across the coastal terminals this afternoon. Short-term guidances suggest low clouds redeveloping around the Humboldt Bay and vicinity this evening and tonight. This will bring back IFR to LIFR conditions at KACV later this evening. Nearshore gentle southerly breezes may push northward toward KCEC late tonight into Saturday, promoting IFR/LIFR conditions. Surface winds from NW at 10-15 kts with higher gusts for the coastal terminals, while WNW winds at around 10 kts, with occasional higher gusts at KUKI. For UKI, mainly VFR conditions with cumulus clouds in the vicinity higher terrain. Winds from N at around 10 kts, with occasional higher gusts, becoming very light and variable after 30/03Z. With calm winds, low clouds and vicinity fog are expected to develop. NBM probability show there is a 10-20 for low clouds lower than 3000 feet for UKI this evening and into Saturday, while a nonzero (<5%) for low clouds lower than 1000 feet. Saturday, breezy conditions with clear skies are expected for all terminals. /ZVS && .MARINE...Moderate to strong winds are already observed across the waters this afternoon, with the strongest winds across the outer waters. Winds will be steadily strengthening through this weekend, with gale-force gusts developing over the outer waters. Gale Warning is now in effect for zones 470 and 475 from Saturday/Saturday night through Sunday night. Localize gale-force gust winds are likely around Pt St George and downwind of Cape Mendocino as well. For the inner waters, advisory conditions are likely with mostly moderate to strong breezes expected for much (>50%) of the area. The existing northwest swell will decay out of the waters late tonight, allowing for short period seas to dominate the sea state. Steep to very steep, hazardous short period seas will likely builds in response of the increasing winds to around 9-15 feet this weekend. Winds will weaken slightly but most likely remain moderate early next week. /ZVS && .EKA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CA... None. NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA COASTAL WATERS...

Updated at 1210 PM PDT Fri May 29 2026 - Temperatures return closer to normal by Sunday, and remain near or slightly above normal for much of the upcoming work week - Cooler than normal temperatures may return by end of next week && .SHORT TERM... Issued at 1210 PM PDT Fri May 29 2026 (This evening through Saturday) The mid/upper level low that provided recent rainfall across the region has shifted over Nevada with a short-wave ridge building in from the Pacific. A mix of sun and clouds are expected throughout the afternoon as PWAT values remain ~1.00" and lingering surface moisture is abundant. Thus, cloud cover may limit how warm temperatures get today. We are forecasting maximum high temperatures to be in the upper 50s to middle 60s near the coast with middle 60s to lower 70s across the interior. Expecting low clouds once again tonight with the potential for fog in the North Bay (mainly around Santa Rosa, Petaluma, and Navato) and coastal drizzle around the Monterey Peninsula. Any low clouds and/or fog that does develop is expected to clear out by midmorning (Saturday). As the ridge aloft shifts further to the east over the region, expecting the warming trend to continue on Saturday with high temperatures ranging from the upper 50s along the immediate coastline, low to middle 60s just inland, and lower to upper 70s in the interior. && .LONG TERM... Issued at 1210 PM PDT Fri May 29 2026 (Saturday night through next Thursday) Zonal flow will return to the region through the middle of the upcoming week while 500mb heights warm slightly. This will result in a warming and drying trend across the interior. By Monday and moreso into Tuesday, the marine layer is forecast to return resulting in cooler temperatures in coastal locations versus inland as low clouds will be slower to dissipate each morning. Conditions look to cool by late in the work week as troughing approaches the West Coast. && .AVIATION...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are through the evening from the Cascades into the Okanogan Highlands and the Idaho Panhandle. Drier and cooler conditions are expected over the weekend with occasionally breezy conditions. Temperatures warm through the week with a return of thunderstorms on Wednesday. && .DISCUSSION... Friday night: A weak upper-level trough remains offshore west Friday afternoon with a shortwave currently located over eastern Oregon. Eastern Washington and north Idaho remains moist under a south to southwest flow aloft with moist south to southwest flow aloft into eastern Washington and north Idaho PWAT values 0.60 to 0.90 inches. With dewpoints in the 50s across central Washington, the latest RAP Meso Analysis shows surface-based CAPE of 1000-2000 J/kg with 0-6km shear less than 20 knots in central Washington into the Okanogan Highlands. Single cell storms are developed across the Waterville Plateau and Okanogan County. Given the weak shear associated with these storms, the primary storm mode will be short-lived single cells with lightning, heavy downpours, small hail, and gusty outflow winds up to 40 mph as the primary hazards. High resolution models show this activity shifting east into northeast Washington and north Idaho through the later afternoon and early evening as the offshore trough moves inland. 0-6 km shear increases to 20-30 knots across northeast Washington and north Idaho as this activity shifts east, which may support a few stronger storms. Farther east into southeast Washington and the southern Idaho Panhandle will be another area to watch for thunderstorm development as the eastern Oregon shortwave moves northeast later this afternoon and evening. Despite stronger 0-6 km shear above 40 knots, drier mid levels and a temperature inversion around 700 mb is limiting the amount of surface-based CAPE with high resolution models showing values below 1000 J/kg through the afternoon and early evening. As a result, thunderstorms will be more isolated in nature. Brief heavy downpours will also be a risk primarily across the Camas Prairie. Storm motions are quick, so flash flooding risk is low, but 1 hour rainfall rates up to 0.50 inches could result in isolated instances in steep terrain. Additionally, as the offshore trough moves onshore drier air and cooler temperatures across western Washington has resulted in quite a strong cross-Cascade pressure gradient-- +9.8 mb from SEA-EAT. This is bringing gusty winds through the Cascade valleys and into the western Columbia Basin with sustained west to southwest winds 15 to 30 mph with gusts of 25 to 40 mph through the evening. Saturday through Tuesday: Models are in general agreement for an upper-level low to shift into western Montana this weekend and become stationary into early next week as an omega block develops. Moisture wrapping around this low will bring a 30-50 percent for showers over north Idaho Sunday and Monday with the best potential along the Idaho/Montana border. There is also a 15-25% chance on Sunday and a 30-40% chance on Monday for showers across far northeast Washington. Subtle ridging into central and eastern Washington will allow temperatures to warm into the 70s. The influence of the trough over the Idaho Panhandle will keep temperatures in the 60s. Wednesday and Thursday: Models begin to hint at the stationary upper- level low over western Montana to begin to shift eastward late Tuesday into Wednesday as a shortwave approaches the Pacific Northwest coast. Ensembles are in general agreement of the presence of this shortwave, but differ on the strength and timing. The main message at this point is that Wednesday afternoon and evening will be the next period to monitor for thunderstorms across the region. /vmt && .AVIATION... 18Z TAFs: MVFR ceilings at KMWH will improve to VFR over the next couple of hours as day time heating strengthens. Otherwise VFR conditions will prevail with increasing westerly winds today through tonight. Most gusts will be around 20-25 kt. There are chances for more chances for thunderstorms today in the northern mountains and northeast Washington and KLWS around 19-03z. There are some shower chances prior to 0z at KEAT-KMWH under a more stable airmass. FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND/OR ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: Low confidence in thunderstorms at LWS and showers at EAT.

Current satellite is showing some convection beginning in southern Grant County with a cell that is putting out a few strokes of lightning. Satellite and radar both show a solid line of showers that expands much of OR and WA moving into the Cascades with ground observations showing 0.01-0.03 inches of rain along the crests of the Cascades and portions of the eastern slopes. Also, ground observations are also showing winds beginning to pick up in the Kittitas Valley and across the Simcoe Highlands and the lower Columbia Basin. Winds today are expected to reach advisory levels through the Kittitas Valley, Simcoe Highlands, foothills of the southern Blues and the Gorge of WA and OR. Highest confidence in seeing 25-35 mph sustained winds and 50 mph gusts is 80-90% through the Kittitas Valley. Moderate to high confidence in the remaining areas seeing winds of 20-30 mph sustained and 45-50 mph gusts. A wind advisory is in effect through 11 PM Friday night. Mountain showers are already beginning to occur across the Cascades and are expected to occur over the eastern mountains this afternoon with 70-90% probabilities of 0.01-0.05 inches of rain for the next 24 hours. Not only will there be rain showers, models also show there to be increased chances of thunderstorms along the eastern mountains this afternoon with radar already picking up a cell in Grant County. As for the rest of the eastern mountains, there is a 15-30% probability of thunderstorms. CAMs models show there to be a deep layer of instability between 300-500 J/kg, lapse rates in the 8- 9 C/km and lifted indices of -3 to -5 and effective bulk shear around 25 kts. This is a prime environment for a few isolated thunderstorms to pop off over the eastern mountains later this afternoon. After today, models show the upper level low to traverse across the region to the north while westerly flow aloft moves in. The westerly flow aloft will bring dry and cooler temperatures across the area through the weekend with many places seeing temperatures in the low to mid 60s Saturday with isolated 70s in the Basin (70-90% probabilities). Sunday will see slightly warmer temperatures in the mid to upper 60s with the foothills of the Blues, the Gorge and the Basin seeing low to mid 70s (70-90% probabilities). In house calculations show these temperatures to be between 5 to 10 degrees below seasonal average for this time of year. Lastly, models show an upper level ridge pushing into the region bringing back dry and warming conditions. By Tuesday, in house comparisons show temperatures to be heading towards 5 to 10 degrees above normal again. NBM shows temperatures to be in the mid to upper 70s with isolated 80s in the Basin and the Gorge Monday increasing to low to mid widespread 80s Tuesday. By Tuesday night models show the upper level low to retrograde back towards the region bringing with it chances of precipitation and eastern mountain thunderstorms midweek onwards. && .AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY/... VFR conditions will generally prevail through the period. The only exception is at RDM, where there has been some MVFR CIGS this morning. These CIGS may linger for another hour or two before returning to VFR. Otherwise, expect expect gusty winds to around 30 kts this afternoon at DLS, YKM and PDT and 20 to 25 kts at most other sites.

Showers will linger along the Sierra today, with snow levels between 8000-9000 ft. Those showers are expected to dissipate through today, with precip chances decreasing to 10% or less by this evening. Until then, there are also chances (<10%) for isolated thunderstorms, mainly in northern NV along the OR border. Thunderstorm chances renew tomorrow (10-20%), mainly for NE CA and central Washoe county. There`s a slight negative tilt to the upper level heights tomorrow, providing additional forcing for the aforementioned region though model sounding CAPE values show 250 J/kg or less. Isolated thunderstorms will be capable of brief heavy rainfall and small hail/pellet showers. A warming and drying trend will persist through early next week, with afternoon highs back up to the upper 80s and 70s (lower elevations and Sierra communities, respectively) by mid next week. Additional disturbances in the upper level pattern may bring shower chances next week, though confidence remains low. -Giralte && .AVIATION... VFR conditions will prevail for most terminals through the majority of the period. Sierra terminals (KTRK/KTVL) may see periods of MVFR conditions due to isolated showers and subsequent reductions in CIGS/VIS.

Current GOES-West visible satellite imagery illustrates widespread cloud cover across much of interior northern California on this late Spring Friday morning as the system that has impacted the area over the past few days begins to taper off and exit the region. Some lingering showers will be possible over the mountains today but drier conditions are forecast elsewhere. High temperatures will still be below normal today, in the 70s in the Valley, 60s to 70s in the foothills, and 40s to 60s in the mountains. Temperatures will gradually warm over the weekend and into next week. Saturday`s forecast highs will trend around 5 to 10 degrees warmer than today, in the 80s in the Valley, 70s in the foothills and 50s to 60s in the mountains. Another wave will bring a slight chance for showers and thunderstorms on Saturday, to the mountainous areas north of Interstate 80, including portions of the Coast Range, Shasta County and southern Cascades. Dry conditions are expected elsewhere. ...Sunday and onward... Locally breezy northerly flow will develop behind this wave on Sunday, bringing gusts of 15 to 20 mph in the Valley and Delta. This will bring along some drying with lower humidity and warmer temperatures. As we head into the first week of June, weak ridging will bring a gradual warming trend to the area. Areas of Moderate HeatRisk return to the Valley next week. The Delta vicinity will see some late day and overnight relief/cooling as an increased onshore flow gradient will bring periods of breezy west to southwest flow, keeping those areas mainly in Minor HeatRisk. Drier conditions and lower daytime humidity are also forecast, down to the mid teens to mid 20s in the Valley especially early to mid week. Towards the end of the week, ensembles are showing an upper level trough dropping down and moving across the Pacific Northwest into next weekend. While there is still some uncertainty with this, it does look like a cooling trend is then favored for the latter half of next week into the following weekend.

KEY MESSAGES: - Today: Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms with localized flash flooding possible, especially in north-central Idaho and northwest Montana. - Saturday through Monday: A slow moving weather system will bring prolonged, heavy rainfall. Expect significant river rises, potential minor flooding, and a return to winter-like conditions in the high backcountry. A similar pattern to the past few days will develop again today. Southerly flow will bring in instability and produce showers and thunderstorms, some storms could be strong with isolated severe. Cloud cover and cooler afternoon temperatures may limit activity south of I-90 and east of US-93. North-central ID and northwest MT, the main threat will be gusty outflow winds, hail up to 0.50" with a storm or two potentially attaining severe status and producing 1" hail. Additionally, heavy showers could produce isolated flash flooding, this threat is quite low as storm motion will keep storms moving off to the north at 35 to 40 mph. A slow moving low pressure system, will transit south of our area before moving north along the Continental Divide. This will allow for a prolonged period of precipitation over western MT, moderate to heavy at times. The US-93 corridor and east to the Divide have a 80 to 100% probability of receiving at least 0.50" by 6pm Monday. Along the ID/ MT border the probability lowers 50 to 60%. Receiving at least 1", is 60 to 70% probable in the Missoula Valley, 70 to 80% in the Flathead Valley, and east of the these locations is 80 to 100% chance. Two inches or more, there is a 60 to 70% chance in the highest peaks of the Mission, Flathead, and Whitefish Mountains, along with Glacier National Park. Due to these precipitation amounts, we continue to have hydrologic concerns and will extend all our Hydrologic Outlooks an additional 24 hours, except Flathead and Lake Counties which we have upgraded to flood watches. Additionally, the following point locations are being closely watched for river flooding; the Flathead River at Columbia Falls which is forecast to reach minor flood stage Saturday morning, the Clark Fork above Missoula which is forecast to enter minor flood stage after midnight Monday, and the Swan River near Bigfork which is forecast to reach minor flood stage around noon Monday. Just 18" of fast running water across a road can push a SUV or truck off the road, Turn Around Don`t Drown. There has been an eastward trend in the center or coldest part of the low pressure. We have increased snow levels approximately 1000` this forecast issuance to between 6500 and 7000`. That said, anyone with plans for back country adventure should plan accordingly for cold and wet conditions, to avoid hypothermia. A few to 6 inches of wet snow accumulation is possible above 6500`, on Sunday morning. Continue to monitor future forecasts as closed lows are notorious for altering their tracks, snow levels could decrease and snow amounts increase. && .AVIATION...Widespread VFR conditions is giving way to expanding convective activity early this afternoon, with thunderstorms just beginning to initiate. Initial development will track south- to- north across north-central Idaho and west- central Montana, spreading into northwest Montana through the afternoon. Terminals, most notably KGPI and KMSO, will face potential periods of MVFR/IFR conditions due to torrential downpours, sudden visibility reductions, and low ceilings. The primary hazard to aviation will be strong, erratic convective outflow winds exceeding 45 knots and localized hail, with the highest probability for severe criteria centered over northwest Montana (KGPI). Additionally, heavy rain from training storms along the Idaho corridors could produce prolonged localized flight restrictions and mountain obscurations. Widespread rain is expected to increase on Saturday as an upper low moves into the Yellowstone region. Ceiling and visibility reductions will be common in areas experiencing persist rainfall. && .MSO WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

(This afternoon through next Friday) WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW: The enclosed low pressure system that has been situated over western Nevada has begun weakening this morning and started to move northeast. This will cause periods of precipitation, mountain snow, and some isolated thunderstorms to shift towards eastern Nevada this afternoon and through the evening. With the system weakening, snow levels have increased as a result of warmer temperatures, keeping snow in the mountains above 9000 feet. Precipitation wise, total accumulation values will be light with a 25-30% probability of eastern cities/towns seeing greater than 0.1 inches of rain. Thunderstorm chances with the front moving will see up to 20-25% across much of the region with strongest probabilities in central Nevada along US-50 corridor and northeastern Nevada near Jarbidge Wilderness Area. Winds will also be light with wind gusts remaining below 20 mph. Highs expected to be in the upper 60s to 70s. Overnight into Saturday morning, lingering chances of precipitation across the region with probabilities of up to 20% of seeing additional rain showers. By the afternoon, the chances dissipate below 20% for weather activity as the low pressure system has weakened and moved further north, leaving calmer weather conditions overhead. High temperatures will by slightly warmer in the upper 60s to low 70s. Some breezy winds across northeastern Nevada with gusts up to 20-25 mph. Sunday through next Friday, quiet weather conditions and warming temperatures will be the dominant factor for Nevada as upper ridging dominates across the CONUS. A low pressure system over the Alaskan Gulf will help keep the pattern as a zonal flow over Nevada but will not hinder the increasing temperatures each day, with highs starting in the 70s, warming into the 80s throughout much of the week, and by the end of the week, some areas could see 90 degrees return, as summer finally takes hold. Winds will be generally light each day. FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS: High confidence of ongoing periods of precipitation and mountain snow over central and northern Nevada this afternoon through Saturday morning. Moderate confidence of isolated thunderstorms over central and northern Nevada this afternoon. High confidence of calmer weather conditions and warming temperatures Sunday through next Friday. && .AVIATION... Periods of VCSH, and -RA over all terminals today as the low pressure system weakens and shift northeast. VFR conditions will be the dominant category, however MVFR or lower conditions possible from passing storms. Chances for isolated thunderstorms this afternoon may affect all terminals except for KTPH. Breezy wester/northwesterly winds up to 10-15 kts gusts up to 20-22 kts across all terminals, however downdrafts from passing thunderstorms may bring gusty erratic winds up to 40-45 kts over the terminals. Periods of VCSH and -RA is expected to last overnight and into early next morning. && .FIRE WEATHER... Periods of valley rain and mountain snow over all fire zones this afternoon as the low pressure system weakens and shifts to the northeast. A few isolated thunderstorm possible across all zones this afternoon with greatest chances in central zones along US-50 corridor and northeastern zones dissipating into showers by the evening. Elevated fire weather conditions over the eastern edge of zones 425 and 470, however increasing min RH values over 20% will help minimize any fire potential danger. Dry and warming weather conditions return Sunday, lasting through next Friday. && .LKN Watches/Warnings/Advisories... None. && $$ DISCUSSION...97 AVIATION...97 FIRE WEATHER...97 |
