.AVIATION...11/06Z TAFs...Along the coast, IFR/MVFR will continue
through Wednesday morning. Conditions will gradually clear to VFR in
the early afternoon Wednesday. However, some lingering areas of MVFR
is possible along the coast near and north of North Bend (KOTH).
Then marine stratus and IFR will return Wednesday evening.
Inland, conditions are mainly VFR. Thunderstorms have diminished but
expect additional isolated to scattered thunderstorms east of the
Cascades tonight and early Wednesday morning. Erratic and strong,
gusty outflow winds are possible near thunderstorms.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 915 PM PDT Tue Jun 10 2025/
DISCUSSION...It was a warm afternoon with Medford tying their
record high of 99 degrees from 1940. Low 90s were spotted in other
west valley locations including Roseburg. The daytime heating
allowed plenty of storms to build from Siskiyou and Modoc counties
through Klamath and Lake counties. There were multiple strong
thunderstorms in the area due to strong winds and hail, and a few
even became severe in Klamath and Siskiyou counties!
Other than a few leftover showers and storms we`re watching this
evening, there will be some down time before another area of
scattered showers form into eastern Klamath County and Lake County.
A couple of these could turn into thunderstorms, with gusty winds
and hail possible. After, dry conditions return and temperatures
will get back to near normal. -Hermansen
PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 153 PM PDT Tue Jun 10 2025/
DISCUSSION (Today through Monday)...
Overview:
Main item of interest for this forecast is today`s severe
thunderstorm possibility. The main threats today are lightning and
strong wind gusts (50-65mph), but a couple isolated storms could
produce hail around 1.00". Otherwise, the forecast is seasonable
with warm temperatures and dry conditions forecast beyond today.
Will need to monitor fuels this dry stretch. We have seen some
increased drying lately in the fuels across the forecast area, and
this next stretch of dry weather will only further dry fuels
making them more receptive to fire starts.
Further Details:
The H5 disturbance we are tracking for today`s severe weather threat
is well off the coast over the Pacific around 130W and 40N as of
writing this. The PVA associated with this small embedded shortwave
within the westerly flow is not going to phase well with other
variables, but the timing will be conducive for thunderstorms. Some
of these thunderstorms could be severe. If this shortwave was about
6 hours earlier, we would likely be looking at a higher risk of
severe weather today/tonight. DCAPE values are very high today given
the inverted-v forecast soundings, and in some cases approaching
2000 J/kg. This amount of DCAPE can easily produce a severe wind
gusts if a updraft can maintain long enough. The fact the shortwave
will not phase well today, and shear values are on the lower end of
the spectrum, updrafts may struggle to maintain today. However,
there is no reason to believe we wont see at least a couple strong
to severe thunderstorms this afternoon and early evening. MUCAPE
values are around 500 to upwards near 1000 J/kg with bulk shear (0-
6km) around 25-30 knots. This is plenty to work with today as we hit
convective temperatures. This means timing of severe thunderstorms
will likely be associated with peak heating. That said, we are
seeing returns on radar as of writing this, so convective initiation
has occured for some eastside areas where convective temperatures
are lower than other areas. Lastly, since the shortwave is late to
arrive over the forecast area, this does open the door for overnight
convective, mainly on the eastside where upper level divergence will
be associated with this wave. Convective allowing models are showing
some consistency with convection around 10Z-14Z for areas mainly in
Klamath and Lake counties. Its tough to say how much the atmosphere
will be "worked over" from this afternoon/early evening convection.
In other words, there is at least a chance (30%-40%) for a couple
thunderstorms to develop, and these could be strong to perhaps
severe overnight into early morning on Wednesday.
Beyond today, weather impacts are very limited as we experience dry
and seasonable temperatures. Some of the warmer days may be in the
mid to upper 80s for our "warmer" areas, but really temperatures are
very close to normal for this time of year. There are a couple
breezy afternoons in the forecast, but not seeing any need for wind
hazard headlines at this time. The bigger impact through this
stretch of dry weather will be the fact energy release component
values (fuels) are only going to further dry and become more
receptive to fire starts.

MARINE...Updated 130 PM Tuesday, June 10, 2025...High pressure
offshore and low pressure inland are expected to persist into the
weekend. Breezy north winds will persist this week, hovering at or
just below advisory criteria. The strongest winds and steepest
seas are expected south of Port Orford to around Pistol River and
out 30 nm from shore, with the highest seas expected today into
tonight. Seas will remain dominated by a mix of northerly wind
wave and fresh swell, with steep seas across all areas through
Wednesday evening, then south of Port Orford at least through
Thursday evening.
