AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
305 PM PST MON MAR 2 2015

.SYNOPSIS..AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGING WILL BEGIN TO DEVELOP OVER THE
WEST COAST TONIGHT ACCOMPANIED BY DRY COOL NORTHERLY FLOW. COLD
NIGHTS AND AREAS OF MORNING FROST ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH THURSDAY.
TEMPERATURES WILL WARM TOWARD THE END OF THE WEEK FOR VERY
PLEASANT WEATHER.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A DRYING TREND WILL RAPIDLY DEVELOP THIS EVENING
AS SLIGHTLY DRIER AND COLDER AIR BEGINS TO MOVE OVER NORTHWEST
CALIFORNIA BEHIND THE DEPARTING UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE. BASED
ON MODELED RH FIELDS HAVE REMOVED CLOUD COVER FOR TONIGHT THUS
ALLOWING TEMPERATURES TO EVENTUALLY FALL FROST CRITERIA ACROSS
THE MENDOCINO VALLEYS (A FROST ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT FOR THESE
AREAS). ALTHOUGH THE COAST WILL ALSO BE CLOUD FREE TONIGHT NOT
ENTIRELY CONFIDENT LOW TEMPS WILL REACH FROST CONDITIONS ACROSS
COASTAL GROWING AREAS BUT SOME ISOLATED AREAS OF FROST ARE
CERTAINLY POSSIBLE TOWARD SUNRISE. COLD AIR WILL REMAIN IN PLACE
TUESDAY NIGHT WHILE THE ATMOSPHERE CONTINUES TO DRY. THUS THERE IS
A HIGHER POSSIBILITY OF FROSTY/FREEZING TEMPERATURES TUESDAY NIGHT
INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING. TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN TRENDED DOWN CLOSER
TO THE GFSBC GUIDANCE WITH LOWS IN THE 20S TO LOWER 30S ACROSS THE
INTERIOR VALLEYS AND THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 30S NEAR THE COAST. UPPER
LEVEL RIDGING WILL BUILD OVER THE WEST COAST MIDWEEK INTO NEXT
WEEKEND BRINGING A GRADUALLY WARMING TREND AND DRY CONDITIONS TO
NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA. DEPENDING ON WHERE EXACTLY THE UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE SETTLES THERE MAY BE PERIODS OF MARINE LAYER CLOUDINESS BUT
CONFIDENCE IN ANY STRATUS OVER THE WATERS IMPACTING THE COAST IS
CURRENTLY LOW. RPA/JT

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED AT AT ALL TERMINALS THROUGH THIS EVENING.
AT ACV...GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT A SLIGHT ONSHORE FLOW MAY PERSIST
THROUGH THE NIGHT...PERHAPS ALLOWING FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOW
STRATUS AND LOCALIZED FOG IN THE VICINITY OF HUMBOLDT BAY. SOME
VALLEY FOG MAY ALSO DEVELOP IN THE INTERIOR AS RIDGING DEVELOPS
ALOFT...INCLUDING AT UKI.  AT CEC...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE 24 HOUR PERIOD.

&&

.MARINE...WHILE STEEP SHORT PERIOD SEAS CONTINUE ACROSS THE WATERS THIS
AFTERNOON...A SLIGHT LULL IN WIND SPEEDS HAS ALLOWED SEAS IN THE
NEAR SHORE WATERS TO SETTLE BY A FOOT OR TWO FROM EARLY THIS
MORNING.  WHILE WINDS/SEAS MAY NOT QUITE MEET THE TECHNICAL
GALE/HAZARDOUS SEAS CRITIERIA IN THE CURRENT HEADLINES DUE TO THIS
SLIGHT LULL...THEY REMAIN WELL INTO SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
LEVELS...WITH OFFSHORE BUOYS REGISTERING SEAS OF 8 TO 10 FEET AT 8
SECONDS AS OF EARLY THIS AFTERNOON.  THIS SLIGHT RELATIVE LULL WILL
BE SHORT LIVED...HOWEVER...AS ANOTHER SURGE OF WIND SPEEDS IS
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE WATERS DURING THE EVENING HOURS.  AS
THIS OCCURS...SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO BUILD ACROSS THE WATERS YET
AGAIN...AND AS SUCH THE CURRENT GALE/HAZARDOUS SEAS WARNINGS HAVE
BEEN EXTENDED 6 HOURS UNTIL 11Z.  AT THAT POINT...WINDS BEGIN TO
DIMINISH AND PEEL AWAY FROM THE INNER WATERS ALLOWING SEAS IN THIS
REGION TO SETTLE...ALTHOUGH THERE REMAINS A BIT OF UNCERTAINTY AS TO
EXACTLY WHEN THEY WILL FALL BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS.  IN
THE OUTER WATERS...WINDS WILL DIMINISH FROM GALE STRENGTH BUT WILL
REMAIN IN THE FRESH TO STRONG BREEZE RANGE THROUGH MID DAY
WEDNESDAY.  AS SUCH...STEEP SHORT PERIOD SEAS WILL CONTINUE AND
LIKELY REQUIRE THE ISSUANCE OF A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WHEN THE
CURRENT HEADLINES EXPIRE.

IN ADDITION TO THE STEEP SHORT PERIOD SEAS...A SMALL SOUTHERLY SWELL
WILL ENTER THE WATERS BEGINNING EARLY TOMORROW...BUT ITS IMPACT WILL
LIKELY BE MASKED BY THE PERSISTENT SHORT PERIOD SEAS UNTIL AT LEAST
WEDNESDAY...AND EVEN THEN IT MAY ONLY BE NOTICED ON SOUTH FACING
BEACHES IF AT ALL.  A SOMEWHAT LARGER WESTERLY SWELL WILL LIKELY
BECOME THE DOMINANT WAVE GROUP LATE IN THE WEEK...AS WINDS AND STEEP
SHORT PERIOD SEAS WILL HAVE DIMINISHED BY THEN.
