...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS CANCELLED...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN EUREKA HAS CANCELLED THE SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY. 

SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS HAVE ONLY WEAKLY DEVELOPED AND IN A VERY
LIMITED AREA OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS. CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
TO BE A TOUCH LESS TODAY AS AN UPPER TROUGH BREAKS UP THE SURFACE
PRESSURE GRADIENT AND CAUSES WEAKENING WINDS AND SEAS. CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED TO BUILD AGAIN SUNDAY INTO MONDAY.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
303 PM PDT WED AUG 13 2014

.SYNOPSIS...AN UPPER LEVEL LOW CURRENTLY MOVING ONSHORE WILL BRING
ISOLATED RAIN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY OVER THE
MOUNTAINS OF DEL NORTE COUNTY AND THE TRINITY ALPS...THROUGH EARLY
THIS EVENING. A RETURN TO MORE SEASONAL TEMPERATURES AND DRIER
CONDITIONS IS EXPECTED THURSDAY INTO THE WEEKEND AS WEAK HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE REGION. COASTAL LOCATIONS CAN EXPECT LOW
CLOUDS EACH NIGHT AND MORNING.

&&

.DISCUSSION...22Z SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS A BROAD UPPER LEVEL LOW
STRETCHING FROM NORTHERN CALIFORNIA INTO OREGON. MOISTURE
AND INSTABILITY ASSOCIATED WITH IT IS BRINGING ISOLATED/SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS TO OUR AREA. THE GREATEST
THREAT WILL BE ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS OF EASTERN DEL NORTE COUNTY
AND THE TRINITY ALPS THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING. RAINFALL AMOUNTS
WITHIN THE SHOWERS SHOULD BE MINIMAL, BUT HIGHER AMOUNTS ARE
POSSIBLE IN THE STORMS. THOUGH, THEY MAY ONLY ADD UP TO 0.10 INCH IN
A FEW SPOTS. ANYTHING THAT FORMS INTO THIS EVENING IS FORECAST TO
MOVE TO THE NORTHEAST, OUT OF OUR CWA. THE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DECREASE THIS EVENING AS THE BEST CONDITIONS
(MOISTURE, JET STEAK POSITIONING, INSTABILITY, ETC.) SHIFT TO THE
NORTHEAST WITH THE LOW. THE LOW WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE TO THE
NORTHEAST ON THURSDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN BEHIND IT. THIS
WILL ALLOW SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES TO RETURN AND FOR DRY WEATHER
TO PREVAIL. COASTAL LOCATIONS CAN EXPECT TEMPERATURES NEAR NORMAL
WITH CLOUDS EACH NIGHT AND MORNING. MODELS SHOW BROAD TROUGHING
OVER THE WEST COAST EARLY NEXT WEEK, BUT THE EXACT LOCATION AND
STRENGTH OF THE TROUGH AXIS IS VERY UNCERTAIN. AS A RESULT,
DIDN'T REALLY CHANGE MUCH OF THE LONG TERM FORECAST.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR TO MVFR CONDITIONS AND LIGHT TO MODERATE WINDS
WILL OCCUR AT KCEC AND KACV THIS AFTERNOON. LOWER CONDITIONS ARE
DUE TO REDUCED CEILINGS. STRATUS WILL MOVE INTO COASTAL AREAS THIS
EVENING AND OVERNIGHT REDUCING CEILINGS TO IFR CONDITIONS AT KCEC
AND KACV. PATCHY FOG WILL ALSO REDUCE VISIBILITIES AT KCEC AND
KACV OVERNIGHT. LIGHT WINDS TO CALM CONDITIONS WILL OCCUR
OVERNIGHT AT KCEC AND KACV. VFR CONDITIONS AND LIGHT WINDS TO CALM
CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE AT KUKI THROUGH THURSDAY.

&&

.MARINE...A WESTERLY SWELL WILL CONTINUE TO PROPAGATE ACROSS THE
WATERS THROUGH THURSDAY. A HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL STRENGTHEN
ACROSS THE NORTHEASTERN PACIFIC THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AND A HIGH
PRESSURE RIDGE WILL BUILD INTO THE AREA. THE STRENGTHENING HIGH
PRESSURE RIDGE WILL INCREASE THE PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS THE
WATERS. THEREFORE THE WINDS AND SEAS WILL INCREASE THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY AND INTO THIS WEEKEND. WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE HIGHER ACROSS
THE OUTER WATERS.

&&

.EKA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

CA...NONE.

NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA COASTAL WATERS...NONE.
