Taylor Day 2 Valid 12Z Fri Dec 29 2023 - 12Z Sat Dec 30 2023 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA AND SOUTHWEST OREGON... ....20Z Update... No changes to the previous forecast issuance as guidance maintains continuity through the time frame with regards to precip timing, placement, and forecast QPF. NBM has remained consistent with the axis of highest probabilities for at least 2" along the coast from Eureka down into San Francisco, as well as around the hills of Mount Shasta and areas northwest of Reading. Rates will be generally maxed at 0.5-0.75"/hr, but wet antecedent conditions along with prolonged moderate to heavy rainfall over a 6-10 hr time frame will lead to some localized flooding concerns on the lower end of the MRGL risk category. There is merit to the positioning based on both the probabilistic sense, as well as the UFVS First Guess Fields. Kleebauer ....Previous Discussion.... An atmospheric river will ensue Friday afternoon through Saturday morning across portions of southwest Oregon and northern California before waning in intensity and shifting focus southward. The latest guidance has areal averages of 1 to 3 inches and the NBM neighborhood probability of at least 2" is fairly robust across the northern CA coast (70+%), with the highest totals generally between Eureka and San Francisco. The risk for local flooding concerns will remain elevated for this part of the country so the Marginal Risk area remains in effect for this period.
