AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
330 AM PDT TUE JUL 12 2011

.SYNOPSIS...AN UPPER LEVEL LOW MOVING TOWARDS THE AREA WILL BRING
INCREASING CLOUDS AND A THREAT OF LIGHT RAIN OR DRIZZLE TO THE
NORTH COAST TONIGHT. THE LOW WILL ALSO BRING A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF EASTERN
TRINITY COUNTY TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM JUST SOUTH OF THE QUEEN
CHARLOTTE ISLANDS WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST CROSSING THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST LATER TODAY. THIS FEATURE WILL DRIVE A SHORTWAVE
ACROSS NORCAL LATER TODAY/TONIGHT.  THIS WILL RESULT IN A CONTINUING
INCREASE IN MARINE LAYER DEPTH ALONG THE NORTH COAST AS WELL
AS SUSTAIN SOME WEAK STABILITY ACROSS THE EASTERN INTERIOR
MOUNTAINS.

ALTHOUGH THE COASTAL MARINE LAYER IS FAIRLY DEEP IT IS STILL NOT
CAPPED BY A STRONG INVERSION AND REMAINS A BIT MIXED. THUS SOME
BREAKS IN THE SKY WERE OBSERVED YESTERDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
THIS MORNING 11-3.9 IMAGERY SHOWING EXTENSIVE CLOUDS ALONG THE
ENTIRE COAST BUT A GAP OF DRIER AIR OVER THE COASTAL WATERS. BOTH
WRF AND NAM SHOW A SIMILAR PATTERN SHAPING UP AS YESTERDAY WITH
PLENTY OF LOW CLOUDS BUT SOME BREAKS POSSIBLE DURING THE EARLY
AFTERNOON HOURS.  THEN LATE IN THE AFTERNOON THE UPPER SHORT WAVE
WILL APPROACH THE COAST AND BOTH MODELS BRING A MORE ENHANCED MARINE
PUSH INTO THE COASTAL INTERIOR.  GFS AND NAM SHOW SOME LIGHT PRECIP
ACCOMPANYING THIS PUSH ALONG THE COAST WHICH WILL LIKELY BE DRIZZLE.
HAVE UPPED POPS ALONG ZONE 1 AND ADDED SOME VERY LIGHT RAIN AMOUNTS
THROUGH LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY WED MAINLY NORTH OF THE CAPE.

ACROSS THE INLAND AREAS SOME CU IS EXPECTED AGAIN ACROSS THE ALPS
AND PERHAPS AS FAR SOUTH AS THE YOLLA BOLLYS BUT STANDARD CONVECTIVE
PARAMETERS REMAIN MARGINAL AT BEST.  THUS HAVE REMOVED TSTORM CHANCES
FOR LATER TODAY BUT KEPT A CHANCE OF MOUNTAIN SHOWERS IN.  GFS AND
NAM IN AGREEMENT ON SOME CONVECTIVE PRECIP ASSOCIATED WITH THE
WAVE MENTIONED ABOVE.  WEDNESDAY LOOKS BETTER IN TERMS OF BUOYANCY
FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF TSTORMS BUT STILL ISOLATED AT BEST.  THURSDAY
AND FRIDAY SOME INSTABILITY REMAINS AND PLACE SO LEFT SLIGHT CHANCE
OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN IN TRINITY
COUNTY.

&&

.AVIATION...CEILINGS HAVE BEEN FALLING ALONG THE NORTH COAST THROUGH
THE NIGHT AS AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE SLOWLY PUSHES SE TOWARD THE
WA/OR COAST. ONSHORE FLOW AND INCREASING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE SHOULD
MAINTAIN A MIX OF IFR AND MVFR CIGS AT THE COAST WITH PERHAPS A FEW
PATCHES OF FOG AND MIST MOVING IN FROM THE OCEAN THROUGH AFTERNOON.
INLAND AREAS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO SEE VFR AND A FEW TCU OVER THE
MOUNTAINS. MARINE DEPTH SHOULD INCREASE TONIGHT WITH LOW CLOUDS
SPREADING FARTHER INLAND EARLY WED.

&&

.MARINE...SHORT PERIOD NW SEAS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THIS WEEK. A
FEW WEAK LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS PASSING BY TO THE NORTH WILL RESULT IN
MINOR FLUCTUATIONS IN THE WINDS. OVERALL THE WINDS WILL BE LIGHT
FROM THE NW...BUT INCREASE EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING MAINLY AROUND
CAPE MENDOCINO. AN UPPER TROUGH WILL REMAIN ALONG THE WEST COAST
THROUGH THIS WEEK WHICH WILL KEEP WINDS ON THE LIGHT SIDE AND SEAS
LOW. MODELS INDICATE ANOTHER LONG PERIOD SOUTHERLY SWELL ARRIVING ON
WED AND WILL PROBABLY BE 2 TO 3 FT AT 17-18 SECONDS.
