.MARINE...SOUTHERLY WINDS HAVE BEEN SLOWLY DECREASING THIS
AFTERNOON...WITH GUSTS TO 35 KT AT THE BUOYS. BUOYS REPORTED
GUSTS OF 40-45 THIS MORNING. WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO DROP OFF MORE
DRAMATICALLY AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT...BUT THEN RAMP UP AGAIN ON FRI
AS ANOTHER FRONT APPROACHES. ONCE AGAIN THE HIGHEST WINDS...GUSTS OF
40-45 KT WILL BE FROM CAPE MENDO NORTHWARD...WITH MARGINAL GALES
SOUTHWARD. TIMING THE END OF THE GALE IS STILL UNCERTAIN...SO KEPT
THE WARNING GOING A FEW HOURS LONGER THAN THE GFS AND NAM12
INDICATES. WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH TO 10-25 KT ON SAT AND BECOME
WESTERLY. BY FAR THE MAIN CONCERN IS THE THREAT FOR STORM FORCE
WINDS ON SUNDAY AS A POTENT FRONT APPROACHES THE COAST. BOTH THE
NAM12 AND GFS HAS BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS OF 50-60 KT. THE STRONGEST
WINDS WILL BE OUTSIDE 10NM...HOWEVER THERE IS A CHANCE OF 50 KT
GUSTS TO CREEP INSIDE 10NM. THERE IS STILL UNCERTAINTY ON THE EXACT
TIMING AND MAGNITUDE...SO I BROAD-BRUSHED ON THE TIMING.
SW SWELL OF 10-12 FT WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT THE WATERS TONIGHT AND
THEN DECREASE ON FRI. SWAN CONTINUES TO PAINT A COMPLICATED WAVE
SPECTRUM WITH WAVE ENERGY BOTTLED UP IN HIGH FREQ BANDS THROUGH FRI.
ENP AND SWAN CONTINUES TO SHOW 20 FOOT WEST SWELL AT 14 SECONDS
BUILDING OVER THE WEEKEND. I AM NOT TOO CONFIDENT IN THIS SCENARIO
ATTM DUE TO THE SHORT PERIODS...SO WENT WITH 14-18 FT INSIDE 10NM ON
SAT INTO SAT NIGHT. APPEARS THERE WILL BE A SECONDARY SURGE ON
SUNDAY BEHIND THE FRONT WITH WAVES BUILDING TO 20 FT AGAIN. I AM NOT
TOO CONFIDENT IN THIS SCENARIO EITHER WITH PERIODS UNDER 14 SECONDS.
THUS UNDERCUT SWAN BY ABOUT 2 FT.
&&
HYDROLOGY...THE SMITH RIVER HAS RISEN TO NEAR FLOOD STAGE THIS
AFTERNOON. CANCELLED THE FLOOD WARNING THIS MORNING. THE MAJORITY
OF THE RAIN HAS COME TO AN END IN THE NORTH SO FEEL RIVERS WILL
CREST SHORTLY NEAR FLOOD STAGE.
COASTAL FLOODING...TIDES IS RUNNING NEAR 0.7 FT ABOVE ASTRO TIDES.
THIS IS FORECAST TO DIMINISH SLIGHTLY BUT MAY BE ENOUGH TO CAUSE
MINOR FLOODING IN KING WITH HIGH TIDE ON FRIDAY MORNING. SO ISSUED
A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY FRIDAY MORNING.
