AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
738 AM PST SUN MAR 3 2013

.SYNOPSIS...A COLD FRONT DEPARTING THE AREA WILL RESULT IN
DECREASING CLOUDS THROUGH THE DAY. A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BRIEFLY BRING DRY WEATHER TO THE AREA TONIGHT INTO MONDAY BEFORE
ANOTHER COLD FRONT BRINGS RAIN AND MOUNTAIN SNOW LATE MONDAY NIGHT
THROUGH THURSDAY. FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE
LOOKS TO BRING A RETURN TO DRY WEATHER.

&&

.SHORT TERM...SATTELITE CONTINUES TO SHOW A WEAK FRONT SLOWLY
PUSHING SOUTH ACROSS THE AREA. SURFACE OBS ARE SHOWING CLEARING
BEHIND THIS FRONT IN SOUTHERN OR. RAINFALL HAS BEEN MAINLY LIMITED
TO A FEW SPRINKLES. MODELS SHOW THIS FRONT SLOWLY PUSHING SOUTH
THROUGH THE DAY. CLOUDS MAY LINGER IN THE AREA TODAY...ESPECIALLY
OVER MENDOCINO COUNTY. HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY WILL BE LARGELY
DEPENDENT ON CLOUD COVER. AREAS IN THE NORTH SHOULD CLEAR SOONER
AND WARM MORE. TONIGHT SKIES SHOULD BE MAINLY CLEAR ALLOWING
TEMPERATURES TO FALL TO NEAR TO SLIGHTLY BELOW FREEZING. HAVE
ISSUED A FROST ADVISORY FOR THE COAST AND INTERIOR MENDOCINO
COUNTY WHERE THE GROWING SEASON HAS BEGUN.

MONDAY WILL HAVE A CHILLY START...BUT SHOULD WARM UP FAIRLY
QUICKLY AS SOUTHERLY WINDS START TO PICK UP AHEAD OF THE NEXT
SYSTEM. MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA ONCE THE
VALLEY FOG BURNS OFF IN THE INTERIOR VALLEYS.

MONDAY NIGHT CLOUDS WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE AS THE NEXT COLD FRONT
APPROACHES THE AREA. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE OVERNIGHT AND
KEEP TEMPERATURES ELEVATED ALL NIGHT IN THE UPPER 40S TO AROUND
50. THE ECMWF IS NOW SLIGHTLY SLOWER ON STARTING THE PRECIP THAN
THE GFS...BUT THEY ARE FAIRLY CLOSE ON THE IDEA OF PRECIP STARTING
SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT IN CRESCENT CITY AND BEFORE SUNRISE IN
EUREKA. THE RAIN WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD SOUTH AND EAST THROUGH
THE MORNING. INITIALLY SNOW LEVELS WILL BE HIGH...AROUND 7000
FEET. RAINFALL AMOUNTS WITH THE FRONT LOOK TO RANGE FROM AN INCH
TO OVER 2 INCHES IN FAVORED AREAS.

BEHIND THE FRONT A COLD UPPER LEVEL TROUGH LOOKS TO MOVE ACROSS
THE AREA TUESDAY EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING. SEVERAL WAVES
ARE MOVING AROUND THE BOTTOM ON THIS TROUGH...ONE ON WEDNESDAY
MORNING AND ANOTHER ONE WEDNESDAY EVENING BRINGING HEAVIER
SHOWERS. 500 MB TEMPERATURES LOOK TO BE AROUND -33C AND
INSTABILITY LOOKS STRONG ENOUGH TO WARRANT A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE COAST AND OVER THE WATERS TUESDAY NIGHT
AND WEDNESDAY. SMALL HAIL IS ALSO LIKELY IN THESE SHOWERS. SNOW
LEVELS WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY FALL BEHIND THE FRONT TO AROUND
2500 TO 3000 FEET WEDNESDAY MORNING. SHOWERS LOOK TO SLOWLY TAPER
OFF ON THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT AS THE RIDGE STARTS TO BUILD IN.
SNOW AMOUNTS LOOK TO RANGE FROM 4 TO 9 INCHES ABOVE 3000 FEET WITH
SOME SNOW FALLING AS LOW AS 2000 FEET. AT THIS POINT IT LOOKS LIKE
A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED...BUT CONFIDENCE IS TOO
LOW AND IT IS STILL TOO FAR OUT TO ISSUE ANYTHING AT THIS POINT.
MKK

.LONG TERM...THURSDAY NIGHT SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO END AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION. MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON
THE HIGH PRESSURE KEEPING THE AREA DRY ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.
SUNDAY THE ECMWF STARTS TO LOWER HEIGHTS AGAIN AS IT TRIES TO PUSH
ANOTHER SYSTEM THROUGH THE RIDGE SUNDAY NIGHT. LEFT SOME SLIGHT
CHANCE TO CHANCE POPS IN TO ACCOUNT FOR THAT. THE GFS HOLDS ON TO
THE RIDGE WHICH SEEMS LIKE THE MORE LIKELY SOLUTION. THIS WILL
NEED TO BE MONITORED ON FUTURE MODEL RUNS. MKK

&&

.AVIATION...AS DRY AIR CONTINUES TO SURGE DOWN THE COAST THIS
MORNING BEHIND A SECONDARY FRONT...THE LOW CLOUDS SHOULD QUICKLY BE
SCOURED OUT AT ACV AND CEC. THUS IFR CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE TO
VFR BY MID TO LATE MORNING. ADDITIONALLY NORTHERLY WINDS WILL
INCREASE AT COASTAL LOCATIONS TODAY WITH GUSTS TO AROUND 20 KT. SOME
RADIATIONAL FOG MAY DEVELOP OVERNIGHT TONIGHT...BUT GENERALLY
CONDITIONS SHOULD REMAIN VFR.

INTERIOR VALLEY FOG COVERAGE SHOULD BE LIMITED THIS MORNING WITH
PRIMARILY VFR CONDITIONS PREVAILING ACROSS THE INTERIOR. CONDITIONS
WILL BE MUCH BETTER FOR RADIATIONAL COOLING TONIGHT WHILE RIDGING
ALOFT BUILDS OVER NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA. THUS MORE WIDESPREAD VALLEY
FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE BRINGING IFR TO LIFT CONDITIONS EXCEPT IN THE
UKI AREA. RPA

&&

.MARINE...AS A SECONDARY FRONT MOVES DOWN THE COAST THIS MORNING
BEHIND A DEPARTING SYSTEM WINDS HAVE INCREASED ACROSS ALL THE WATERS
INTO BORDERLINE SCA CRITERIA. SEAS AHEAD OF THIS SURGE SUBSIDED A
FEW FEET...BUT SHOULD QUICKLY REBUILD THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS TO
ABOVE 10 FT. THUS THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES CONTINUE FOR ALL WATERS
TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT. WINDS AND SEAS WILL DECREASE MONDAY AHEAD OF
THE NEXT MUCH MORE POTENT SYSTEM. SATELLITE INDICATES THE NEXT
SYSTEM IS GAINING STRENGTH AS IT DIVES SOUTH FROM THE ALEUTIANS NOW
WITH ROBUST CONVECTION ON ITS EAST SIDE. THANKFULLY THE SYSTEM WILL
WEAKEN SLIGHTLY AS IT BECOMES CUT OFF FROM THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL FLOW
TONIGHT INTO MONDAY...BUT SHOULD STILL BRING A QUICK SHOT OF STRONG
SOUTHERLY WINDS ACROSS NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE WATERS AS A COASTAL JET
DEVELOPS LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING. WITH GUSTS
EXPECTED TO BE NEAR 35 KT AND SHORT PERIOD SEAS EXPECTED TO EXCEED
10 FT...HAVE ISSUED A GALE WATCH BEGINNING 3 PM MONDAY AFTERNOON
THROUGH 9 AM TUESDAY MORNING. GALE CONDITIONS ARE INDEED
QUESTIONABLE...BUT FEEL THAT THERE IS A HIGH ENOUGH CHANCE THAT THEY
COULD DEVELOP TO REQUIRE THE WATCH. CONFIDENCE IS MUCH HIGHER ON THE
SEA STATE AND A HAZARDOUS SEAS WARNING IS VERY LIKELY IF A GALE IS
NOT REQUIRED.

WINDS WILL DECREASE DURING THE DAY TUESDAY AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES
INLAND WITH SEAS REMAINING ELEVATED AS A LONG PERIOD WAVE GROUP
BUILDS INTO THE WATERS BEHIND THE FRONT. A SECONDARY UPPER LEVEL
SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE TOWARD THE COAST TUESDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY
WEDNESDAY ALONG WITH A SURFACE LOW. THIS WILL BRING ANOTHER PERIOD
OF ELEVATED SOUTHERLY WINDS AND THE POSSIBILITY OF STRONG
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS TO THE WATERS.

THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH ASSOCIATED WITH THE ENTIRE STORM SYSTEM WILL
MOVE INLAND WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING BACK
OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC. THIS WILL ALLOW SCA STRENGTH NORTHERLY
WINDS TO REDEVELOP ACROSS THE WATERS FOR LATE NEXT WEEK. RPA
