AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
359 AM PDT MON JUL 13 2015
.SYNOPSIS...THE STUBBORN TROUGH OVER THE REGION WILL PROMOTE SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR ONE MORE DAY ACROSS THE NW CA INTERIOR.
ACTIVITY WILL BEGIN TO SUBSIDE TONIGHT AND END TUESDAY AS HIGH
PRESSURE BEGINS TO BUILD BACK OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC.
&&
.DISCUSSION...AT LEAST ONE MORE DAY OF CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY IS
EXPECTED ACROSS THE INTERIOR THIS AFTERNOON AS THE TROUGH AXIS
PERSISTS ALOFT. COASTAL AREAS APPEAR TO BE IMMUNE TO THE LOWER
CLOUDS THIS MORNING AND MAY SEE ANOTHER NICE DAY WITH BALMY AND A
BIT MUGGY CONDITIONS. DEW PT VALUES ARE DOWN ABOUT 7 DEGREES FROM
YESTERDAY AT THIS TIME BUT EVEN DEW PTS IN THE LOW 50S WILL
LIKELY BRING ANOTHER HIGH RH AFTERNOON ALONG THE COAST. GENERALLY
CLEARING SKIES AND WARMING TEMPERATURES WILL BE THE RULE BY
TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...AN UPPER
LEVEL RIDGE WILL BE IN PLACE OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC WHILE A
TROUGH REMAINS IN PLACE OVER THE INTERIOR PACIFIC NORTHWEST
THROUGH THE LONG TERM. MODELS HAVE BEEN TRENDING TOWARD A PIECE OF
THIS UPPER TROUGH BECOMING A CUT OFF LOW NEAR THE CENTRAL
CALIFORNIA COAST ON THURSDAY AND THEN DRIFTING WEST THROUGH THE
WEEKEND. THIS WILL RESULT IN LIGHT EASTERLY FLOW OVER NORTHWEST
CALIFORNIA AND PERSISTENT NORTHERLY WINDS OVER THE COAST WATERS.
THUS BETTER CLEARING AT THE COAST AND WARMER TEMPERATURES ACROSS
ALL OF NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA ARE EXPECTED THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. OVER
THE WEEKEND...RETURN FLOW MAY DEVELOP NEAR THE COAST ALLOWING
STRATUS TO POSSIBLY PUSH BACK NORTH. ADDITIONALLY...DEPENDING ON
THE POSITION OF THE UPPER LOW...CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL MAY RETURN
OVER THE INTERIOR. FOR NOW THE FORECAST HAS BEEN KEPT DRY BUT
CLOUDS HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED FOR SUNDAY OVER THE COASTAL
WATERS/PORTIONS OF THE IMMEDIATE COASTLINE AND TEMPERATURES HAVE
BEEN REDUCED A FEW DEGREES FOR THE WEEKEND. RPA/MKN/JT
&&
.AVIATION...SOME ISOLATED LOW CEILINGS DEVELOPED EARLY THIS MORNING
ALONG PARTS OF THE COAST AS WELL SOME INTERIOR VALLEYS. THESE AREAS
SHOULD SEE IMPROVEMENT AS DAY TIME HEATING HELPS MIX OUT THE LOWER
CLOUDS. A SHORTWAVE TROUGH POSITIONED OVERHEAD SHOULD CONTINUE TO
STREAM SOME MID TO UPPER CLOUDS OVER NORTHERN CALIFORNIA YET VFR
SHOULD PREVAIL. ANOTHER VORTICITY MAX WILL SLIDE OVER THE AREA
TONIGHT HELPING KEEP LOW LEVELS WELL MIXED. DESPITE, MODELS CONTINUE
TO SHOW SOME HIGHER RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES ALONG THE COAST. EXPECT
SOME LOW CLOUDS TO DEVELOP AGAIN TONIGHT ALONG PARTS OF THE COAST
AND SOME INTERIOR VALLEYS. /KML
&&
.MARINE...MODERATE NORTHERLY WINDS WILL DEVELOP TODAY AS BUILDING
HIGH PRESSURE TIGHTENS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS THE COASTAL
WATERS. CONDITIONS WILL FURTHER DETERIORATE ON TUESDAY WITH GALE
FORCE WINDS POSSIBLE ON WEDNESDAY. STEEP SEAS WILL BUILD IN RESPONSE
TO THE INCREASING WINDS THROUGH THE WORK WEEK. SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR OUTER WATERS STARTING TONIGHT AND
TOMORROW MORNING FOLLOWED BY THE INNER WATERS TOMORROW AFTERNOON.
GALE WARNINGS WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED FOR THE OUTER WATERS STARTING
WEDNESDAY AND PERSISTING THROUGH THE WORK WEEK. HOWEVER, IT IS TOO
EARLY TO ISSUE THE WARNING AT THIS TIME. /KML
