AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
225 PM PDT FRI MAR 26 2010

.SYNOPSIS...A RIDGE BUILDING OVER THE AREA WILL ALLOW FOR GENERALLY
DRY CONDITIONS THROUGH SAT. WET WEATHER WILL BEGIN AGAIN ON SUN.

&&

.SHORT TERM...MODELS REMAIN ON TRACK IN THE SHORT TERMS WITH A RIDGE
BUILDING ACROSS THE AREA THIS EVENING INTO SAT. A WEAK SHORT WAVE IS
PASSING OVER THE TOP OF THE BUILDING RIDGE THIS AFTERNOON CAUSING
SOME SHOWERS NORTH OF TRINIDAD HEAD. AS THE RIDGE TAKES OVER THESE
SHOWERS WILL DIMINISH. SAT WILL BE GENERALLY FAIR THROUGHOUT THE
REGION WITH CLOUDS BEGINNING TO INCREASE OVERNIGHT AS THE NEXT
SYSTEM APPROACHES. BFG

.LONG TERM...THE FORECASTED PATTERN REMAINS VERY PROGRESSIVE FOR THE
WEEK. THE FIRST FRONT SLATED FOR SUN WILL BRING WIDE SPREAD PRECIP
AND OPEN THE GATES FOR THE JET TO TAKE AIM AT NORTHERN CAL FOR THE
FOLLOWING COUPLE OF DAYS. AN UPPER LOW ANCHORING IN THE NORTHERN
GULF OF AK WILL DROP TO THE SW AND INTO CAL IN THE TUE TIME FRAME.
THIS WILL CONTINUE THE WET PATTERN SETTING UP AS WELL AS BRING IN A
COOLER UNSTABLE AIR MASS BEHIND IT. WITH THIS INSTABILITY...THERE
WILL BE THE POSSIBILITY OF THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE REGION. CONFIDENCE
IS LOW WITH THIS RIGHT NOW AND IS NOT SHOWN IN THE FORECAST. THIS
WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS AS THE MODELS COME
INTO BETTER AGREEMENT WITH THE PATH OF THE UPPER LOW. A WEAK RIDGE
OF HIGH PRES WILL CROSS THE REGION THU INTO FRI ALLOWING FOR A BRIEF
REPRIEVE FROM THE PRECIP...BUT THE GENERAL PATTERN OF PROGRESSIVE
FLOW WILL CONTINUE BEHIND THIS AS WELL. THE GFS 5-WAVE PATTERN
INDICATES THE SAME IDEA WITH AN AVERAGE TROUGH SET UP OVER THE WEST
COAST. ALL THAT TO SAY...THE MAIN CHANGES IN THE FORECAST WERE TO
UP THE POPS THROUGH THE WEEK. BFG

&&

.AVIATION.../00Z TAF ISSUANCE/
VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD AS HIGH PRESSURE
CONTINUES TO BUILD INTO THE REGION. THE EXCEPTION WILL BE
RADIATIONAL FOG...SOME DENSE...THAT IS LIKELY TO DEVELOP
OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY IN VALLEY AREAS. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN
LIGHT. HENRY

&&

.MARINE...SEAS WILL CONTINUE TO SUBSIDE AND WINDS WILL DIMINISH
TONIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION. THE WEATHER PATTERN
WILL CHANGE FOR THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEKEND AS A LARGE UPPER
TROUGH APPROACHES THE REGION. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE
SATURDAY NIGHT...REACHING GALE FORCE LIKELY ON MONDAY...ESPECIALLY
ACROSS THE NORTHERN WATERS. ASSOCIATED WNW SWELL WILL BUILD INTO THE
REGION SUNDAY...REACHING A PEAK OF AROUND 22 FT FOR TUESDAY. A HIGH
SURF ADVISORY LOOKS LIKE IT MAY BE NEEDED FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE
WEEK...STARTING THE LATTER HALF OF MONDAY. HENRY

&&

.EKA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
CA...NONE.
NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA COASTAL WATERS...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY UNTIL 4 PM PDT THIS AFTERNOON PZZ470-475.
