What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this hazardous seas warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Eureka, CA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this hazardous seas warning went out at Aug 2, 3:22 PM PDT, 11 hours 56 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 2, 3:22 PM PDT, 11 hours 56 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
322 PM PDT TUE AUG 2 2016
.SYNOPSIS...Little change is expected over the next several days,
with a mix of sun and low clouds and cool temperatures along the
coast. Near to slightly above normal temperatures inland along
with a chance of a few showers or thunderstorms across the
northeast interior mountains on Friday and Saturday.
&&
.DISCUSSION...A general weak troughiness aloft will return to the
region over the few days with perhaps a gradual deepening of the
marine layer and a chance of light showers and tstorms across the
far eastern interior Friday and Saturday. The best chance for
thunderstorms still appears to be on Saturday. Moisture will be
the main limiting factor with coverage and rainfall amounts. Long
range models don't have a tap into tropical moisture from the
Pacific and monsoonal moisture should be shunted more N over NV
and perhaps the Sierra ahead of the approaching trough. The GFS
develops 2 modest vorticity maxima late in the week. The 1st is
forecast to move over the S portion of the area Thursday night and
the 2nd is now progged to move well S of the area Saturday night.
This forcing doesn't currently match well with the times of best
low-level instability, but changes in timing or location could
provide additional lift for potential convection. Will continue to
hone the forecast as more model consistency is established.
Interestingly the GFS 6 and 12z runs from last night and this
morning are bringing in an open wave from the west which then
evolves into a cut off low off the coast of the bay area by late
next week. Confidence in this solution verifying is very low at
this time as this same depiction has not shown up (yet) in the
Euro model. However it bears watching and if it did materialize
could possibly bring a much better convective potential for nw CA
as well as other portions of the north state. SEC/JT
&&
.AVIATION...Skies were clear at the coastal airports this afternoon
after IFR conditions this morning. Gusty northwest winds...primarily
at KCEC...will continue through mid evening before laying down by
midnight. With winds decoupling, expect stratus and perhaps misty
air conditions to develop overnight at both KACV and KCEC again,
from about midnight to daybreak. IFR conditions Wednesday morning
will give way to VFR conditions and breezy northwest winds by
afternoon at the coastal terminals. Southerly flow around KUKI
overnight will probably be too weak to advect low clouds into the
KUKI area and VFR is expected there.
&&
.MARINE...Strong northerly winds and steep seas will persist through
the week primarily over the outer waters with Gale Warnings
remaining in effect through Thursday evening. Come Saturday, the
northerly winds will ease up a bit resulting in a decrease in wave
heights, however, they will remain steep with the southern most
outer waters likely seeing wave heights near 10 to 12ft. The inner
most waters, within 10nmi, will continue to see borderline Small
Craft Advisory criteria through Thursday evening with the strongest
northerly winds being found around Point St. George and Cape
Mendocino. Steep seas, however, will continue through the weekend.
