AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
302 PM PDT THU MAY 29 2014

.SYNOPSIS...HIGH PRESSURE OFFSHORE WILL MAINTAIN MOSTLY DRY
WEATHER WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A
TROUGH ALOFT WILL DROP DOWN FROM THE NORTH ON FRIDAY BRINGING
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS TO THE TRINITY MOUNTAINS THROUGH THE
WEEKEND AND INCREASING CLOUDS ALONG THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT) VISIBLE
SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES THIS AFTERNOON AFTER THE
CLOUDS IN THE LOWER PORTION OF THE EEL RIVER AND KLAMATH RIVERS
DISSIPATED. IN THE WATER VAPOR IMAGERY, THERE IS A SHARP TROUGH OVER
THE AREA WITH A REINFORCING SHOT OF ENERGY UPSTREAM. THIS ENERGY
WILL DROP INTO THE TR OF ON FRIDAY WHICH WILL PRODUCE A SMALL CLOSED
LOW SOMEWHERE OFF THE MENDO COAST. THIS LOW IS WEAKER AND THE
LOCATION NOT AS FAVORABLE THAN PREVIOUS RUNS BUT STILL HAVE MOST
UNSTABLE CAPE ON THE GFS AT ABOUT 500 J/KG AND CONTINUED WITH
ISOLATED TSTMS FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. STORM MOVEMENT LOOKS
FAIRLY SLOW SO EXPECT LIGHT TO MODERATE RAINFALL WITH THESE
SYSTEMS. FLAT RIDGE THEN DEVELOPS ON SATURDAY AND AIRMASS NOT AS
UNSTABLE BUT STILL LOOKING FOR SLT CHC OF TSTMS OVER TRINITIES AND
YOLLO BOLLYS. BY SUNDAY ANOTHER PIECE OF ENERGY COMES DOWN IN THE
NORTHWEST FLOW AND AIRMASS BECOMES UNSTABLE AGAIN,THOUGH NOT TO
THE EXTENT AS FRIDAY SO CONTINUED WITH SLT CHC TSTMS. AT THE
COAST, THE OFFSHORE FLOW WEAKENS AND THE LOWER LEVEL AIRMASS RH
INCREASES SO EXPECT TO SEE MORE CLOUDS STARTING TONIGHT AND INTO
THE WEEKEND. DEAN

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY) THE MODELS CONTINUE TO
INDICATE TROUGHINESS LINGERING OVER THE REGION THROUGH THE MIDDLE
OF NEXT WEEK WITH SUBTLE INDICATIONS OF INSTABILITY. CONFIDENCE IN
THIS IS LOW, BUT LEFT THE FORECAST AS IS FOR CONSISTENCY.
TEMPERATURES SHOULD GRADUALLY WARM UP TOWARDS THE SECOND HALF OF
NEXT WEEK, BUT NOTHING TOO DRAMATIC.

&&

.AVIATION...GUSTY WINDS THIS AFTERNOON WILL DECREASE AFTER ABOUT 7PM
THOUGH THE WINDS WILL STILL BE STRONG AROUND KCEC UNTIL ABOUT
MIDNIGHT. MODELS SHOW BOUNDARY LAYER RH INCREASING STARTING LATE
TONIGHT WITH INCREASING IFR CLOUDS AROUND HUMBOLDT BAY INTO KACV
AND ALSO IN THE MENDO COAST ABOUT MIDNIGHT. STILL A WEAK OFFSHORE
PRESSURE GRADIENT NEAR KCEC SO THAT WILL REMAIN MOSTLY CLEAR
TONIGHT THOUGH THERE MAY BE SOME PATCHY MVFR FOG. VFR INLAND
EXCEPT FOR LOCALIZED IFR CEILINGS IN LOWER EEL AND KLAMATH RIVERS
AFTER MIDNIGHT. WITH STRONG AFTERNOON WINDS, EXPECT MIXING IN THE
AFTERNOON AND VFR CONDITIONS BY LATE MORNING. UNSTABLE AIRMASS
INCREASES FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND WILL SEE INCREASE TOWERING CU
CLOUDS WITH ISOLATED CBS AND TSTMS. THESE WILL BRIEFLY OBSCURE THE
MTN TOPS. DEAN

&&

.MARINE...THIS AFTERNOON THE NEARSHORE BUOYS HAVE BEEN REPORTING A
STRONG NORTHERLY BREEZE WITH SEAS AROUND 7-9 FT NORTH OF CAPE
MENDOCINO AND A MODERATE NORTHERLY BREEZE WITH SEAS AROUND 9 FT
SOUTH OF CAPE MENDOCINO. THE 1840Z ASCAT PASS SHOWED WINDS OF 20-30
KT, WITH THE STRONGEST WINDS ACROSS THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE OUTER
WATERS. THESE WINDS WERE ABOUT 5 KT HIGHER THAN FORECAST, SO
ADJUSTED THE SHORT TERM WIND FORECAST UP TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS.
OTHERWISE, MODELS SHOW A CONSISTENT SYNOPTIC PATTERN. THE PACIFIC
HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO INTERACT WITH A THERMAL LOW ACROSS
INTERIOR CALIFORNIA, GENERATING NORTHERLY WINDS AND SHORT PERIOD
SEAS. EXPECT LOW END GALE WARNINGS ACROSS THE OUTER WATERS
TONIGHT, THEN GRADUALLY EXPIRING ON FRIDAY AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
WEAKENS SLIGHTLY. HOWEVER, AS THE GALE WARNINGS EXPIRE HAZARDOUS
SEAS MIGHT CONTINUE IN THEIR PLACE, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THE SEAS
PROPAGATING SOUTHWARD FROM OUR NORTH. ISSUED A HAZARDOUS SEAS WATCH
FOR THE OUTER WATERS TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS. THE SC.Y'S FOR THE INNER
WATERS REMAIN ON TRACK, BUT THEY MAY NEED TO HAVE THEIR END TIMES
PUSHED FURTHER BACK. GALE CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP ACROSS THE OUTER
WATERS AGAIN THIS WEEKEND AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT STRENGTHENS. BUT
THIS IS STILL BORDERLINE AS MODELS KEEP SHOWING MINOR
FLUCTUATIONS UPWARD AND DOWNWARD WITH THE WINDS FROM RUN TO RUN.
REGARDLESS, THE NORTHERLY WINDS AND ELEVATED SEAS WILL CONTINUE INTO
THE WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK.
