AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
418 AM PST THU MAR 10 2016

.SYNOPSIS...MULTIPLE STORM SYSTEMS WILL BRING PERIODS OF HEAVY
RAIN TO NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA THROUGH THE WEEKEND. FLOODING WILL BE
POSSIBLE IN LOW LYING AREAS.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A COLD FRONT CONTINUES TO BRING RAIN TO NORTHWEST
CALIFORNIA THIS MORNING. PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN HAVE BEEN REPORTED AT
MANY WEATHER STATIONS ACROSS THE AREA WITH THE HEAVIEST RATES UP TO
0.50 INCHES/HR IN THE KING RANGE AND CENTRAL MENDOCINO COUNTY.
THIS FRONT WILL GRADUALLY SLIDE SOUTH AND STALL OVER SONOMA AND
MARIN COUNTIES TODAY. RAIN WILL COME TO AN END AS THE FRONT SLIDES
SOUTH THOUGH MAY LINGER OVER SOUTHERN MENDOCINO COUNTY WELL INTO
THE AFTERNOON. BY THIS EVENING ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL
APPROACH THE COAST. THIS LOW WILL CAUSE THE FRONT TO RETREAT BACK
NORTH AS A WARM FRONT AND EXPAND THE RAIN BACK OVER NORTHWEST
CALIFORNIA. MODELS HAVE TRENDED TOWARD THE APPROACHING LOW CUTTING
OFF FROM ITS PARENT UPPER TROUGH JUST OFF THE MENDOCINO COAST AND
THEN DRIFTING SOUTHEAST. THIS HAS RESULTED IN LESS OF A NORTH
PUSH OF THE HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION IN THE MODEL GUIDANCE AND TOTAL
RAINFALL ACROSS NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA...PARTICULARLY NORTH OF
MENDOCINO COUNTY...THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING IS NOW LOOKING TO BE
LESS THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT. HOWEVER MENDOCINO COUNTY WILL STILL
RECEIVE THE BRUNT OF THE RAINFALL ALLOWING FOR STREAMS AND RIVERS
TO RISE SHARPLY. AN UPDATED RIVER FORECAST WILL BE OUT THIS
MORNING WITH THE NEW MODEL GUIDANCE FROM THE RIVER FORECAST
CENTER. DEPENDING ON HOW THE MODELS TREND AN AREAL FLOOD WATCH FOR
TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY MORNING COULD BE REQUIRED FOR MENDOCINO COUNTY
CONSIDERING THE SATURATED SOILS FROM THE CURRENT RAIN.

RAIN WILL DECREASE THROUGH THE DAY FRIDAY BUT ANY DRY PERIOD WILL BE
BRIEF AS ADDITIONAL SYSTEMS APPROACH THE COAST SATURDAY AND THEN
AGAIN SUNDAY. MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO TARGET THE HEAVIEST RAIN
WITH THESE TWO SYSTEMS ACROSS AREAS FROM CENTRAL MENDOCINO COUNTY
NORTH...WITH THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL OCCURRING WITH THE SUNDAY COLD
FRONT. THE PERSISTENT RAIN WILL RESULT IN THE POTENTIAL FOR SMALL
STREAM AND LOWLAND FLOODING AND HIGH FLOWS ON MAIN STEM RIVERS.
SEE MORE ABOUT MAIN STEM RIVER FLOODING POTENTIAL IN THE HYDROLOGY
SECTION BELOW.

ANOTHER ROUND OF GUSTY SOUTH WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE IN ADVANCE OF
THE SATURDAY SYSTEM AS A MODERATELY STRONG COASTAL JET DEVELOPS. THE
BEST CHANCE FOR GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 45 MPH WILL BE ON THE EXPOSED
RIDGES OF HUMBOLDT AND DEL NORTE COUNTIES.

RAIN WILL DECREASE TO SHOWERS MONDAY AND THEN END TUESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY AS AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE WEST COAST.
OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPERATURES COULD BECOME QUITE COOL EARLY NEXT WEEK
BEHIND THE SUNDAY FRONT WITH SNOW LEVELS FALLING INTO THE 2500-3500
RANGE ON MONDAY. FROST WILL BE A CONCERN IN INTERIOR MENDOCINO
COUNTY VALLEYS MONDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHTS IF CLOUDS DISSIPATE. A
WARMING TREND IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON WEDNESDAY WITH POSSIBLE
OFFSHORE FLOW DEVELOPING. RPA

&&

.AVIATION...VFR TO MVFR CONDITIONS AND LIGHT TO MODERATE WINDS
WILL CONTINUE AT KCEC AND KACV THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING. SHOWERS
WILL CONTINUE DIMINISHING THIS MORNING IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD
FRONT WHICH MOVED THROUGH THE AREA LAST NIGHT. THE WINDS WILL
CONTINUE GRADUALLY DIMINISHING THIS MORNING. CEILINGS AND
VISIBILITIES WILL IMPROVE LATER THIS MORNING AND VFR CONDITIONS
AND LIGHT WINDS WILL PREVAIL AT KCEC AND KACV LATE THIS MORNING
THROUGH THIS EVENING. MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS WILL OCCUR AT KUKI
TODAY AS SHOWERS MOVE THROUGH THE AREA REDUCING CEILINGS AND/OR
VISIBILITIES. LIGHT TO MODERATE WINDS WILL CONTINUE AT KUKI
THROUGH THIS EVENING.

&&

.MARINE...A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVED THROUGH THE AREA WEDNESDAY
EVENING. THE WINDS AND SEAS INCREASED AS THE COLD FRONT
APPROACHED AND MOVED ACROSS THE WATERS. WIND GUSTS TO GALE FORCE
OCCURRED. A FEW GUSTS TO STORM FORCE OCCURRED ALONG THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY IN A FEW LOCATIONS AS THE FRONT AND ASSOCIATED SHOWERS
MOVED ACROSS THE WATERS. THE WINDS AND SEAS ARE DIMINISHING THIS
MORNING IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT. LIGHT TO MODERATE WINDS WILL
PREVAIL ACROSS THE WATERS THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY. THE SEAS
WILL GRADUALLY SUBSIDE THROUGH FRIDAY. A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE THROUGH THE REGION FRIDAY NIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY MORNING.
THE WINDS AND SEAS WILL INCREASE AS THE FRONT APPROACHES AND MOVES
ACROSS THE WATERS. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT
ACROSS THE NORTHERN NEAR SHORE WATERS THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING AND
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN NEAR SHORE WATERS THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES ARE CURRENTLY IN EFFECT ACROSS THE OUTER
WATERS THROUGH THIS WEEKEND. HOWEVER AS THE STRONG COLD FRONT
APPROACHES AND MOVES ACROSS THE WATERS FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY
THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY BE UPGRADED TO A GALE
WARNING ACROSS THE NORTHERN OUTER WATERS BEGINNING FRIDAY NIGHT
AND ACROSS THE SOUTHERN OUTER WATERS BEGINNING SATURDAY MORNING
REMAINING IN EFFECT THROUGH SUNDAY. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL BE
NECESSARY ACROSS THE NEAR SHORE WATERS SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY DUE
TO INCREASING WINDS AND/OR SEAS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...RAIN THIS WEEK WILL RESULT IN HIGH FLOWS ON MAIN STEM
RIVERS ACROSS NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA. THE GREATEST CHANCE FOR RIVER
FLOODING WILL OCCUR ON FRIDAY IN MENDOCINO COUNTY AS RAIN FALLS
ON ALREADY SATURATED SOILS. BOTH THE NAVARRO AND RUSSIAN RIVERS
WILL RISE SHARPLY WITH THE NAVARRO LIKELY REACHING FLOOD STAGE AND
THE RUSSIAN LIKELY REACHING MONITOR STAGE. ADDITIONAL RAINFALL
OVER THE WEEKEND FURTHER NORTH MAY ALSO RESULT IN THE EEL RIVER AT
FERNBRIDGE...THE MAD RIVER AT ARCATA...AND POSSIBLY THE VAN DUZEN
RIVER AT BRIDGEVILLE REACHING MONITOR STAGES. STAY TUNED FOR
FORECAST UPDATES.

&&
