AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
323 PM PDT SAT OCT 8 2011

.SYNOPSIS...EXPECT ANOTHER FAIR EVENING AND NIGHT ACROSS NW
CALIFORNIA. CLOUDS WILL INCREASE IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS ON SUN
THEN DISSIPATE BY SUN EVENING AS A FRONT CLIPS THE REGION. A MORE
POTENT FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA ON MON.

&&

.SHORT TERM...AFTER A WEAK RIDGE THIS EVENING AND GENERALLY CLEAR
SKIES, CLOUDS WILL INCREASE ON SUN AS A WEAKENING FRONT
APPROACHES. APART FROM INCREASING CLOUDS OVER THE AREA DUE TO
THE FRONT, ONLY DEL NORTE COUNTY WILL HAVE A THREAT OF
PRECIPITATION. MODELS ARE SHOWING THE FRONT FALLING APART AS THE
IT MOVES INLAND AND THE PARENT LOW LIFTS INTO SE ALASKA. AFTER A
CLOUDY SUN MORNING, CLOUDS WILL BREAK UP IN THE LATE AFTERNOON
ALLOWING FOR A FAIR EVENING. MON WILL BRING A THE FULL CHANGE IN
WEATHER AS A STRONG FRONT MOVES INTO THE REGION. THIS WILL BRING
OVER A QUARTER INCH OF RAIN TO MUCH OF HUMBOLDT AND DEL NORTE
COUNTIES AS IT MOVES THROUGH. RAIN WILL BEGIN MON MORNING AND WILL
TAPER OFF MON NIGHT. A RIDGE WILL BEGIN TO BUILD EARLY TUE
MORNING. BFG

.LONG TERM...MODELS HAVE COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT TODAY WITH A
BUILDING RIDGE OVER THE WEST COAST TUESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY. A
FEW LINGERING SHOWERS WILL PERSIST EARLY TUESDAY AS A DEPARTING
TROUGH PULLS EAST...BUT OTHERWISE DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
ACROSS THE CWA THROUGH FRIDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR OR ABOVE
NORMAL WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY UNDER MOSTLY CLEAR TO PARTLY
CLOUDY SKIES. BY FRIDAY AN ADVANCING TROUGH WILL BEGIN TO BREAK
DOWN THE RIDGE. THE ECMWF WAS THE MORE PROGRESSIVE MODEL WITH THIS
ADVANCING TROUGH AS OF THE 00Z RUN...AND HAD BEEN THE MOST
CONSISTENT. HOWEVER THE MOST RECENT 12Z RUN HAS CHANGED
SIGNIFICANTLY NOW WITH A TROUGH SPLIT OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC
RESULTING IN A MUCH WEAKER SYSTEM INFLUENCING THE COAST. THE 12Z
GFS STILL HOLDS THE TROUGH TOGETHER AND BRINGS IT INLAND SATURDAY.
HAVE OPTED TO IGNORE THE MOST RECENT ECMWF MODEL RUN...CONSIDERING
IT AN OUTLIER AT THIS TIME...AND INCREASE POPS ON THE FRIDAY NIGHT
AND SATURDAY TIME FRAME INTO CHANCE.

SURF...A LARGE NW SWELL WILL ARRIVE IN THE WATERS TUESDAY
AFTERNOON AND CONTINUE THROUGH WEDNESDAY REACHING HEIGHTS OF 18-19
FT AT 16 SECONDS...ORIGINATING FROM A CURRENTLY HURRICANE FORCE
964 MB LOW SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS. SWELL THIS LARGE COULD PRODUCE
BREAKERS AS HIGH AS 21-23 FT AND MAY REQUIRE A HIGH SURF ADVISORY.
HOWEVER IF THE SWELL IS ANY SMALLER THAN MODELS INDICATE THE
BREAKERS WOULD FALL BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA. ADDITIONALLY ENP
GUIDANCE INDICATES 3-7 FT SWELL AT 18-20 SECONDS TUE AFTERNOON FOR
A FEW HOURS...WHICH WOULD PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SNEAKER
WAVES. THE EXACT TIMING AND MAGNITUDE OF THE SWELL IS STILL IN
QUESTION...SO STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
RPA

&&

.AVIATION...PATCHY AREAS OF STRATUS CONTINUE TO HOLD ALONG COASTAL
LOCATIONS AND UP THE EEL RIVER VALLEY. THIS STRATUS WILL BE
DIFFICULT TO DISSIPATE THIS AFTERNOON AND AREAS OF STRATUS MAY
HOLD ON THROUGH THE EVENING ALLOWING IT TO EASILY EXPAND AFTER
DARK. THE GFS MODEL CURRENTLY INDICATES VFR SKIES AT ACV TONIGHT
WHILE THE NAM LOWERS CIGS AND VSBYS DOWN TO LIFR QUICKLY THIS
EVENING. CONSIDERING THE LINGERING STRATUS AND ONSHORE FLOW THAT
IS NOW DEVELOPING ALONG THE COAST...IT SEEMS LIKELY THAT STRATUS
WILL EXPAND THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS AND CONTINUE OVERNIGHT
PRIMARILY NORTH OF THE CAPE AND SOUTH OF SHELTER COVE. FURTHER
INLAND LIGHT WINDS AND CLEAR SKIES SHOULD ALLOW FOG TO DEVELOP
ONCE AGAIN TONIGHT IN THE VALLEYS WITH IFR OR LOWER CONDITIONS
EXPECTED. FOG AND STRATUS WILL DISSIPATE THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS
WITH VFR BY THE AFTERNOON AT MOST LOCATIONS. RPA

&&

.MARINE...A FRONT TO THE NW AND HIGH PRESSURE TO THE SW IS CAUSING
LIGHT TO MODERATE WINDS ACROSS THE NORTHERN WATERS AND MODERATE TO
FRESH WINDS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN WATERS. THIS PATTERN WILL HOLD
TRUE THRU MUCH OF SUN. A 4 TO 5 FT NW WAVE AT 11 SECONDS WILL
ACCOMPANY THESE WINDS. POST FRONTAL WAVES BUILD INTO THE AREA SUN
AFTERNOON, BUT ONLY LAST ABOUT 24 HOURS BEFORE SUBSIDING AGAIN.
WINDS ON SUN WILL BECOMING SOUTHERLY AHEAD OF THE FRONT, THEN
BECOME NW TO N BEHIND THE FRONT. WIND SPEEDS ARE EXPECTED TO
REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY LEVEL THROUGH MUCH OF THE WATERS. OPC SFC
ANALYSIS TODAY HAS BEEN SHOWING A HURRICANE FORCE LOW OVER THE N
PACIFIC. THIS LOW IS SWEEPING TO THE E, HEADING TOWARD THE GULF OF
ALASKA AND EVENTUALLY INTO SE ALASKA. WINDS ALONG THE S SIDE OF
THE LOW ARE GENERATING LARGE WAVES THAT WILL PROPAGATE TOWARD THE
NW CALIFORNIA WATERS. FORERUNNERS WILL BEGIN TO ARRIVE AS LONG
PERIOD LOW AMPLITUDE WAVES TUE THEN BUILD RAPIDLY TUE EVENING. TUE
NIGHT INTO MON MORNING MAY BRING WAVE HEIGHTS AS HIGH AS 19 FT.
THIS WAVE TRAIN WILL SUBSIDE ON THU. FOR INFORMATION REGARDING
COASTAL IMPACTS PLEASE READ THE LONG TERM DISCUSSION ABOVE. BFG
