AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
1053 PM PST WED JAN 29 2014

.SYNOPSIS...SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE END OF THE
WORK WEEK WITH HIGH PRESSURE AND DRIER WEATHER RETURNING FOR THE
WEEKEND.

&&

.UPDATE...EARLY OVERNIGHT MODEL RUNS ARE SHOWING PRECIPITATION
COMING TO AN END EARLY TONIGHT. SATELLITE CONTINUES TO SHOW A
STEADY MOISTURE PLUME MOISTURE APPROACHING NWCA, BUT APPEARS TO BE
MAINLY LOCKED INTO THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. MODELS ARE SHOWING A
DRYING AIRMASS IN THE LOW LEVELS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
NIGHT. WHILE A FEW SHOWERS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE, IT DOES LOOK LIKE
PRECIPITATION WILL BECOME SCATTERED VERY QUICKLY TONIGHT AND
MAINLY REMAIN OVER MOUNTAINOUS AREAS DUE TO UPSLOPE EFFECTS. AS
SUCH, HAVE LOWERED POPS ACROSS HUMBOLDT, TRINITY, AND DEL NORTE
COUNTIES. MENDOCINO COUNTY REMAINS AT THE END OF THIS WEAK HOSE OF
PRECIPITATION, SO HAVE LEFT THE POPS FOR MENDO NEARLY THE SAME.
ALSO, FOR COASTAL DEL NORTE AND HUMBOLDT COUNTIES THE THREAT OF
HAIL IS BECOMING MORE DIMINISHED OVERNIGHT INTO TOMORROW DUE TO
DRY AIR INTRUSION. KEPT HAIL OUT OF THE GRIDS FOR THIS UPDATE. BFG

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION......ISSUED AT 311 PM PST...

DISCUSSION...THE DEEP PLUME OF MOISTURE FROM THE PACIFIC CONTINUES
TO STREAM ACROSS THE E PAC INTO THE PAC NW COAST. PRECIP ACROSS THE
AREA HAS BECOME LIGHTER DURING THE AFTERNOON WITH THE HEAVIEST
PRECIP SHIFTING SE OF THE AREA. THIS TREND WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT
WITH PRECIP BECOMING MORE SHOWERY. ADDITIONAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL
AVERAGE ABOUT 1/4" ACROSS THE AREA WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS ALONG
WINDWARD FACING TERRAIN.

AS THE ATMOSPHERE CONTINUES TO COOL...SNOW LEVELS WILL DROP TONIGHT
AND THU WITH 1 TO 3 INCH SNOWFALL POSSIBLE AT ELEVATIONS GENERALLY
ABOVE 4000 FT THRU THU NIGHT. HEAVIER SHOWERS WILL BE MARGINALLY
CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SMALL HAIL LATER TONIGHT AND EARLY
THU...PARTICULARLY OVER DEL NORTE COUNTY.

THE UPPER RIDGE OVER THE DESERT SW WILL CONTINUE TO FLATTEN
AS THE UPPER FLOW IMPACTING THE W COAST BECOMES MORE W...THEN NW BY
FRI AS A WEAK UPPER RIDGE DEVELOPS ALONG THE CA COAST. THERE
CONTINUES TO BE GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT THAT AN UPPER LOW AND ATTENDANT
SURFACE LOW WILL DIVE SE ACROSS THE E PAC SAT NIGHT AND SUN. MOST OF
THE PRECIP WITH THIS FEATURE IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN OFFSHORE. MOSTLY
DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED OVER LAND EARLY NEXT WEEK. /SEC

AVIATION...A COLD FRONT CONTINUES TO SETTLE SOUTH OF THE REGION
LEAVING BROAD ONSHORE FLOW OVER NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA AND ONLY A FEW
LINGERING SHOWERS. THIS MOIST FLOW HAS KEPT MANY AREAS IN MVFR/IFR
THOUGH...DEPENDING ON THE VALLEY LOCATION...SOME AREAS HAVE LIFTED
INTO VFR. OVERNIGHT TONIGHT MOISTURE SHOULD POOL IN VALLEY LOCATIONS
RESULTING IN LOW CLOUD FORMATION. ANOTHER WEAK LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
WILL MOVE TOWARD THE COAST ON THURSDAY BRINGING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS
TO THE REGION. SHOULD ANY STRONG SHOWERS FORM...VERY COLD AIR ALOFT
MAY ALLOW THE SHOWERS TO PRODUCE SMALL HAIL. THE UNSTABLE AIRMASS
WITH THIS SYSTEM MAY ALLOW THE LOW CLOUDS TO CLEAR BRINGING
IMPROVING CONDITIONS AWAY FROM ANY SHOWER ACTIVITY. RPA

MARINE...A PERSISTENT WESTERLY SWELL CONTINUES TO MOVE THROUGH THE
WATERS AT AROUND 8 TO 10 FT AT 13 SECONDS. A SECONDARY PUSH OF
LONGER PERIOD WAVES WILL MOVE INTO THE WATERS THIS EVENING PUSHING
THE SEA STATE BACK OVER 10 FEET PRIMARILY NORTH OF CAPE MENDOCINO
..THUS THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES FOR THE NORTHERN WATERS HAVE BEEN
EXTENDED THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. ON THURSDAY A LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM WILL DIVE DOWN THE COAST AND MOVE INLAND. THIS WILL TIGHTEN
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT LATE TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY ALLOWING NEAR
SMALL CRAFT NORTHERLIES TO DEVELOP IN THE SOUTHERN OUTER WATERS.
HELD OFF ON ISSUING ANY NEW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES FOR THE SOUTHERN
WATERS AT THIS TIME DUE TO MARGINAL FORECAST CONDITIONS AND TO REDUCE
CONFUSION BETWEEN THE LONG PERIOD SWELL ADVISORY CURRENTLY OUT IN
THE NORTHERN WATERS AND THE NORTHERLY WIND/SHORT PERIOD SEAS
ADVISORY POSSIBILITY LATE THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY.

ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE SOUTH OFF THE CALIFORNIA COAST
OVER THE WEEKEND BRINGING SOME LIGHT TO MODERATE SOUTHERLIES IN THE
COASTAL WATERS. MODELS HAVE BEEN AMAZINGLY CONSISTENT THE LAST
COUPLE OF DAYS KEEPING THIS LOW FAR ENOUGH WEST TO KEEP WINDS BELOW
SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA...BUT MODEL TRENDS WILL HAVE TO BE MONITORED
CLOSELY OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. NORTHERLY WINDS WILL RETURN
EARLY NEXT WEEK AS THIS LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM SLIDES SOUTH. RPA
