Area forecast discussion, Dec 15, 3:50 PM PST, 11 hours 25 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
350 PM PST SAT DEC 15 2012
.SYNOPSIS...A BRIEF BREAK IN THE WEATHER ON SUNDAY MORNING WILL THEN
GIVE WAY TO ANOTHER COLD FRONT ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON YIELDING
WIDESPREAD RAIN WITH GUSTY WINDS ALONG THE NORTH COAST. A COLD FRONT
WILL FOLLOW ON MONDAY MORNING...BRINGING A SHARP COOL DOWN BY MONDAY
NIGHT.
.SHORT TERM...TODAY'S WAVE CAME THROUGH A LITTLE FASTER THAN GUIDANCE
AND WARRANTED FASTER START TIME TO THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY AS WELL
AS LARGER COVERAGE. REPORTS FROM SPOTTERS AND WEB CAMS CONFIRMS ADVISORY
TYPE SNOW AMOUNTS AROUND INTERIOR AREAS OF HUMBOLDT...TRINITY AND MENDO
COUNTIES FOR ELEVATIONS ABOVE 2500 FEET. SNOW FELL AS LOW AS 1500 FEET
IN SOME AREAS BUT ONLY 1 TO 2 INCHES OF ACCUMULATION. AS OF 330PM RADAR
RETURNS CONTINUE TO DROP IN INTENSITY AND COVERAGE THUS ENDED THE WINTER
WEATHER ADVISORY. A BRIEF BREAK IN THE WEATHER OCCURS TONIGHT AND
EARLY TOMORROW. THE NEXT FRONT ARRIVES BEGINS TO IMPACT THE AREA LATE
TOMORROW MORNING WITH SOUTHERLIES INCREASING OVER THE COASTAL
WATERS. AS THE FRONT APPROACHES THE NEAR COAST SOUTHERLIES WILL RAMP
UP NECESSITATING THE ISSUANCE OF A WIND ADVISORY FOR ZONE 1. CRAFTED
THE WORDING TO MAINLY AFFECT THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE ZONE (TRINIDAD
NORTH) AS THE BULK OF WIND WILL OCCUR THERE. HUMBOLDT BAY REGION WILL
GET GUSTY TOO BUT LIKELY A GOOD 10 TO 15 MPH LOWER THAN ITS NORTHERLY
NEIGHBORS. THE SOUTHERLY ADVECTION AND DIURNAL HEATING DURING THE DAY
SHOULD BRING SNOW LEVELS UP TOMORROW ABOVE PASS LEVEL AND SHOULD PREVENT
AND LOW ELEVATION SNOW FROM REACHING THE VALLEYS...BUT WILL HAVE TO WATCH
THOSE TEMPS CLOSELY DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY TOMORROW. A
COLD FRONT WILL SINK THROUGH THE AREA ON MONDAY BRINGING A SHARP
COOL DOWN WITH 1000-500MB THICKNESS FALLING TO NEAR 522DAM BY
TUESDAY MORNING. THESE TYPES OF THICKNESS PATTERNS COULD SIGNAL A
FREEZE FOR THE REDWOOD COAST EARLY TUE OR WED MORNING. BY TUESDAY
AFTERNOON A RIDGE WILL BEGIN TO CROSS THE AREA ALLOWING FOR A BRIEF
DRYING PERIOD. BFG/JT
.LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY. WEAK RIDGING
PASSING OVER THE REGION WILL KEEP POPS SLIGHTLY BELOW CLIMO LATE
TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. THE EXCEPTION IS NEAR THE CA/OR BORDER WHERE
WE HAD TO BLEND WITH OUR NEIGHBOR WHO HAD MUCH HIGHER POPS. MODELS
STILL SHOW THINGS GOING DOWNHILL LATE WEDNESDAY THROUGH THE END OF
NEXT WEEK AS A LONG WAVE TROUGH DEVELOPS OVER THE WEST COAST. RAISED
POPS TO DOUBLE CLIMO DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. COLD AIR WITH THIS
TROUGH SHOULD ALLOW SNOW LEVELS AND TEMPERATURES TO DROP
SIGNIFICANTLY. THE QUESTION IS MOISTURE. IF ANY STORMS SET UP WITH
GOOD MOISTURE THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR DECENT SNOWFALL AT LOWER
ELEVATIONS ALONG WITH EMBEDDED CONVECTION. THIS WILL BE WATCHED
CLOSELY. MS
&&
.AVIATION...CIGS WILL DECREASE INTO MVFR ALONG THE COAST AS ONSHORE
FLOW CONTINUES OVERNIGHT AND BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE INCREASES AHEAD
OF AND JUST BEHIND A FRONTAL PASSAGE. LOW CLOUDS WILL BECOME TRAPPED
INTO INTERIOR VALLEYS OVERNIGHT AS THE NIGHTTIME INVERSION DEVELOPS.
EXPECT MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS AT UKI. A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
TOWARD THE COAST ON SUNDAY BRINGING INCREASING SOUTHERLY WINDS ALONG
THE COAST AND ANOTHER BURST OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL TO CEC AND
ACV. RPA
&&
.MARINE...WIND AND SEAS WILL DECREASE TONIGHT AS A COLD FRONT MOVES
INLAND ALLOWING MOST ZONES TO FALL BELOW SMALL CRAFT. SEAS MAY
REMAIN ELEVATED OVER THE NORTHERN OUTER WATERS WHERE THE WINDS WERE
STRONGEST TODAY AND A LARGE NORTHWESTERLY SWELL BEGINS TO ARRIVE IN
THE WATERS LATER TONIGHT. ANOTHER STRONG COLD FRONT WILL MOVE TOWARD
THE WATERS ON SUNDAY RESULTING IN INCREASING SOUTHERLY WINDS INTO
GALE ACROSS THE NORTHERN WATERS. THE NORTHWESTERLY SWELL WILL ALSO
BUILD THROUGH THE DAY INTO MONDAY PEAKING COMBINED SEAS ACROSS THE
NORTHERN WATERS BETWEEN 18 AND 20 FT...HIGHEST OFFSHORE. WITH WINDS
COMING DOWN SUNDAY NIGHT...THE GALE WARNING WILL LIKELY FALL...BUT
MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED WITH A HAZARDOUS SEAS WARNING FOR ALL WATERS
MONDAY. SEAS LOOK TO REMAIN JUST BELOW CRITERIA FOR A HIGH SURF
ADVISORY. NORTHWESTERLY WINDS WILL DEVELOP BEHIND THE COLD FRONTAL
PASSAGE ON MONDAY WITH A PERIOD OF SMALL CRAFT WINDS POSSIBLE BEFORE
SUBSIDING. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL MOVE TOWARD THE COAST MID NEXT
WEEK BRINGING ANOTHER SHOT OF STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS WITH GALES
POSSIBLE AND INCREASING SEAS. RPA
