What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS San Francisco Bay Area, CA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Jun 12, 2:34 AM PDT, 43 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 12, 2:34 AM PDT, 43 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
234 AM PDT TUE JUN 12 2012
.DISCUSSION...AS OF 2:33 AM PDT TUESDAY...CURRENTLY THE IR
SATELLITE FOG PRODUCT IS SHOWING STRATUS FILLING IN OVER THE
COASTAL WATERS. THE DENSEST STRATUS SEEMS TO BE CONCENTRATED IN
MONTEREY BAY AND SOUTHWARD. CURRENTLY MONTEREY IS REPORTING
OVERCAST SKIES WITH CIGS AT 800 FEET. HALFMOON BAY IS ALSO
REPORTING REDUCED VISIBILITY AND OVERCAST SKIES AT THIS HOUR.
ACCORDING TO THE FORT ORD PROFILER THE MARINE LAYER HAS REFORMED
TO APPROXIMATELY 800 FEET. FORECAST SOUNDINGS DO SHOW THE MORNING
STRATUS BURNING OFF IN MONTEREY BUT THE COOL MARINE AIR WILL STICK
AROUND ALONG THE COAST WITH AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPERATURES ONLY
EXPECTED TO REACH 66 DEGREES AT MONTEREY. TEMPERATURES INLAND WILL
REMAIN SEASONABLE WITH IN THE UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S IN THE
VALLEYS AND MID 70S LOW 80S ALONG THE COASTAL HILLS. COOLER
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED WEDNESDAY AS A SHALLOW UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES OVER THE FORECAST AREA AND ONSHORE FLOW
STRENGTHENS AT THE SURFACE.
FOR THE SIX TO TEN DAY PERIOD THE CLIMATE PREDICTION CENTER IS
FORECASTING A HIGH PROBABILITY OF BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES FOR
MUCH OF THE WESTERN CONUS. THIS IS MOST LIKELY DUE TO A PERSISTENT
TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE POSITIONED OVER THE WESTERN CONUS RESULTING IN
LOWER THAN TYPICAL 500MB HEIGHTS AND PERIODS OF ENHANCED ONSHORE
FLOW ALONG THE COAST. THIS PATTERN RESEMBLES A REX BLOCK THAT
EVOLVES INTO A CUT OFF LOW PATTERN BY SATURDAY. AT THE MOMENT THE
PATTERN SEEMS TO DYNAMIC TO REALLY CLASSIFY IT AS A REX BLOCKING
PATTERN...BUT IT APPEARS SIMILAR IN APPEARANCE.
&&
.AVIATION...AS OF 10:35 PM PDT MONDAY...A STRONG ACV-SFO GRADIENT
CONTINUES AT ABOUT 7-8 MB. MODERATE ONSHORE GRADIENTS SFO-SAC AT
2-3 MB WILL HELP NUDGE STRATUS TO THE COASTLINE. MARINE INVERSIONS
ARE CLOSE TO 1 THOUSAND FEET DEEP.
BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING A 6 MB ACV-SFO GRADIENT...A MORE
ROBUST SFO-SAC GRADIENT AND THE ARRIVAL OF WEAK AND DRY TROUGH
GREATLY INCREASES THE CHANCES OF AN INLAND MARINE LAYER PUSH.
VICINITY OF KSFO...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE VFR TONIGHT AND
TUESDAY. COMBINATION OF STRONG ACV-SFO GRADIENT AND MARINE INVERSION
AT 1 THOUSAND FEET WILL PREVENT STRATUS INTRUSION. GUSTY WEST WINDS
TO 25 KNOTS EXPECTED TUESDAY AFTERNOON. STRATUS LIKELY TUESDAY NIGHT.
KSFO BRIDGE APPROACH...VFR. STRATUS LIKELY VERY LATE TUESDAY NIGHT.
MONTEREY BAY AREA TERMINALS...LIFR/VLIFR FORECAST LATER TONIGHT. CLEARING
EXPECTED BY LATE TUESDAY MORNING. STRATUS VERY LIKELY RETURNS TUE
EVENING.
