Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Mon Dec 26 2022 08:03:51 FOUS30 KWBC 260803 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 302 AM EST Mon Dec 26 2022 Day 1 Valid 12Z Mon Dec 26 2022 - 12Z Tue Dec 27 2022 ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FOR COASTAL PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN OREGON AND NORTHERN CALIFORNIA... A shortwave trough will weaken as it drifts into British Columbia today. A potent upper-level low will move into the Pacific Northwest region tonight, kicking off a relatively brief but impactful atmospheric river event. A dying cold front with weak onshore flow will spread rain showers across the coastal ranges of the Pacific Northwest this morning before mostly diminishing this afternoon. A stronger low pressure system will move into the region early this evening, bringing with it a deeper plume of subtropical moisture. PWATs of around 1.25 inches are likely with this moisture regime. Rain rates as high as 0.75in/hr and a 50kt low level jet will contribute to the slight risk of excessive rainfall over the coastal ranges of southern Oregon and northern California. Relatively moist/susceptible soils will provide favorable conditions for flash flooding of burn scars and urban areas. High snow levels will certainly allow for heavy rainfall/flash flooding potential along the windward side of the Cascades. Kebede Day 2 The Day 2 outlook will be updated by 0830Z.
