AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
644 PM PDT MON OCT 10 2016

.SYNOPSIS...Dry through Wednesday, with coastal marine stratus
during the overnight hours. A series of strong pacific fronts
will bring periods of gusty winds and heavy rain to the region
from Thursday through Sunday...a brief break in the weather on
Friday.

&&

.UPDATE...
Adjusted sky cover along the Mendocino coast and brought clouds
into the Anderson Valley for the overnight hours. Other than that,
the forecast is on track.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 416 PM PDT MON OCT 10 2016/

SYNOPSIS...Dry through Wednesday, with coastal marine stratus
during the overnight hours. A series of strong pacific fronts
will bring periods of gusty winds and heavy rain to the region
from Thursday through Sunday...a brief break in the weather on
Friday.

DISCUSSION...This season's first significant storm system will be
impacting NW California on Thursday, bringing in periods of heavy
rain and strong winds. Another storm system will bring in a second
round of heavy rain and strong winds on Saturday. Prior to these
two storm systems, the fair weather will continue through first
part of Wednesday, with daily occurrence of coastal marine
stratus. The initial heaviest bands of rain wont likely reach the
coast until late Thursday afternoon. Looks like most of the area
will see about 2 to 5 inches of rainfall, with the highest amounts
in Del Norte County. Besides heavy rain, do expect strong wind
gusts in the area on Thursday. For exposed ridge top locations, do
expect southerly wind gusts to 70 mph. The strong wind should
subside Thursday night. A brief break between fronts should occur
on Friday. By Saturday, another strong weather front will make
landfall along NW California coast, thus bringing in another round
of strong winds and heavy rain. This second weather front looks to
be pushing through the area at a faster speed than the first
front. Concerned that the strong winds associated with this second
front will be stronger than the first front. The faster forward
motion of the front will lead to more momentum transfer, and that
may lead to stronger wind gusts. Weather Prediction Center
anticipates up to 18 inches of rain for these two weather fronts
combined for part of Del Norte County through Sunday night...which
is likely a bit high this far out. Expect those numbers to drop
over the next few days. Nonetheless there will be a good dosing of
rain for the near coast and coastal interior areas this weekend.

AVIATION...A shallow layer of fog and low clouds will continue to
produce LIFR conditions at the coastal terminals tonight. Both KCEC
and KACV have dropped below minimums for the last couple of nights.
See no reason why conditions will be any different tonight. The
timing of LIFR has been based largely on persistence. The layer has
been too shallow to affect KUKI where VFR will persist through the
period. Fog and low clouds will continue to cover the Mendocino
coastline, however.

MARINE......STRONG WINDS AND LARGE SEAS EXPECTED THU THROUGH SAT...

Weak high pressure offshore will maintain light winds across the
area into Wednesday. Winds will become south and increase on Thu
with strong gales expected as a low pressure system deepens north
of the area. Models continue to indicate a low-level jet
developing along our coast with boundary layer winds near 60 kts.
GALES ARE HIGHLY PROBABLE FROM CAPE MENDOCINO NORTHWARD ON THU.
STORM FORCE GUSTS ARE POSSIBLE ON THU TOO. GALES are not as
certain for Mendocino waters. Headlines have been added to the
forecast to highlight the change-over to stormy weather that will
likely last into the weekend.

Large westerly-northwesterly swell will build late in the week.
Breakers could reach 25 feet by Thu evening. It will be marginal for
an advisory, but since it is the first large swell of the season our
criteria will not be as stringent. Another burst of westerly winds
will generate another push of water over the weekend. Mariners and
beach enthusiast should ALWAYS monitor weather and ocean conditions.
HIGH SURF ADVISORIES or BEACH HAZARD STATEMENTS will be forthcoming
later in the week.
