National Weather Service San Joaquin Valley - Hanford California
255 am PDT Thursday Apr 30 2009
Discussion...west to southwest flow continues this morning over
the region and water vapor imagery shows several moisture feeds
taking aim on central California. Well out near 28/140w the next
system to bring the threat of precipitation to the forecast is
moving eastward at a steady clip. Forecast models are in very good
agreement that this potentially wet system will move into and
across the central California interior Friday afternoon through
Saturday. The GFS model is a little faster in bringing the
precipitation band ashore than the NAM and in southwest flow
events the earlier timing is often more accurate. Model forecast
quantitative precipitation forecast is rather impressive with both the GFS and NAM models
indicating the potential for 1.5 to 2.0" of rain in the Sierra
with amounts exceeding 0.5" in the lower elevations. I have upped
the probability of precipitation to the likely category for the Friday night through
Saturday morning and a categorical forecast will likely be needed
later. By Saturday night this system is prognosticated to move east of
the area with ridging building in on Sunday. Over the higher
elevations of the Sierra a rather impressive early may snow event
is likely and accumulations of over one foot are certainly not out
of the question above 8000 feet. All in all this should be
very beneficial for the run off.
