A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR HAZARDOUS SEAS REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL
3 AM PST SATURDAY. 

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR HAZARDOUS SEAS MEANS THAT WAVES ARE
EXPECTED TO BE HAZARDOUS TO SMALL CRAFT. MARINERS SHOULD AVOID
SHOALING AREAS. LONG PERIOD SWELL CAN SHARPEN INTO LARGE BREAKING

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
216 PM PST SAT NOV 14 2009

.SYNOPSIS...AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL BRING A WARMING TREND AND
DRY PATTERN TO THE NORTH COAST THROUGH MONDAY. THE NEXT CHANCE OF
SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL ENTERS THE PICTURE ON TUESDAY...AND WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK AS A SERIES OF LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEMS MOVE THROUGH THE REGION.

&&

.DISCUSSION...QUIET WX FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEKEND WITH NO
REAL FORECAST ISSUES. THE TIMING AND STRENGTH OF A SERIES OF
FRONTS BEGINNING TO AFFECT NORCAL ON TUE IS THE BIGGEST FORECAST
CHALLENGE AND MAIN FOCUS.

HIGH PRESSURE BOTH AT THE SFC AND ALOFT HAS TAKEN HOLD OF NW
CALIFORNIA. MOISTURE FROM YESTERDAYS RAIN COUPLED WITH LIGHT WINDS
PROMOTED PLENTY OF VALLEY FOG...WHICH WAS SLOW TO BURN OFF TODAY.
THE HIGHER MOISTURE CONTENT KEPT TEMPS A LITTLE WARMER THIS
MORNING THAN EXPECTED...BUT PATCHY FROST WAS STILL OBSERVED IN
MANY LOCATIONS. WARMING THROUGH THE ENTIRE COLUMN ALONG WITH
INCREASING HIGH CLOUDS FROM THE NORTH WILL HELP KEEP TEMPS WARMER
THAN LAST NIGHT.

A DIGGING TROUGH CENTERED AROUND 140W WILL BEGIN TO SWING TOWARD THE
WEST COAST ON TUE. THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF FRONTS IS EXPECTED TO
REACH THE COAST ON TUE BRINGING STRONG SOUTH WINDS AND RAIN.
ANOTHER PIECE OF THE TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED SFC FRONT MOVES THROUGH
ON THU. THIS SYSTEM LOOKS TO HAVE MORE MOISTURE AND BETTER
DYNAMICS AS A 120KT JET FOCUSES ON NW CALIFORNIA. CONFIDENCE IS
GROWING...ESPECIALLY IN THURSDAYS SYSTEM AS MODELS HAVE COME INTO
BETTER AGREEMENT IN REGARDS TO TIMING AND STRENGTH. IF CURRENT
MODEL RUNS VERIFY...SEVERAL INCHES OF RAIN APPEAR LIKELY ACROSS
MUCH OF NRN CALIFORNIA THU-FRI TIME FRAME. JCA

&&

.AVIATION...MAINLY CLEAR SKIES WITH ONLY SOME HIGH CLOUDS AND
LIGHT MOUNTAIN CU SHOWING UP ON VIS IMAGERY THIS AFTERNOON. THE
NEXT TAF CYCLE SHOULD CONTINUE TO SEE WIDESPREAD VFR CONDITIONS
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF PATCHY LOW CLOUDS AND RADIATIONAL FOG FORMING
IN THE COASTAL PLAIN AND INTERIOR VALLEYS EARLY SUNDAY MORNING.

&&

.MARINE...INTERESTING WEEK SHAPING UP FOR THE COASTAL WATERS AS
A COUPLE OF STRONG WINTER STORMS ARE PROJECTED TO IMPACT ALL WATERS.
THE FIRST IS SET TO ARRIVE LATE MONDAY NIGHT ACCOMPANIED BY GALE
FORCE WINDS AND BUILDING WIND WAVES ON TOP OF AN ALREADY MODERATE
WESTERLY SWELL.  THE SWELL REMAINS HIGH THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK
AND THEN IS COMPOUNDED BY YET A STRONGER COLD FRONT ARRIVING LATE
WED AND EARLY THU. THE WESTERLY SWELL HEIGHTS INCREASE LATE FRI INTO
SAT ADDED BY WIND WAVES FROM THE FRONT. ANOTHER GALE WARNING AND HAZ
SEAS WARNING WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED TO ADDRESS THIS PERIOD AS WELL.
