PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Heat Advisory means that a period of hot temperatures is
expected. The combination of hot temperatures and high humidity
will combine to create a situation in which heat illnesses are
possible. Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned
room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and
neighbors.

Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When
possible, reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or
evening.  Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat
stroke.  Wear light weight and loose fitting clothing when
possible and drink plenty of water. 

To reduce risk during outdoor work the occupational safety and
health administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks
in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by
heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location.
Heat stroke is an emergency - call 911.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Heat Advisory means that a period of hot temperatures is
expected. The combination of hot temperatures and high humidity
will combine to create a situation in which heat illnesses are
possible. Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned
room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and
neighbors.

Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When
possible, reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or
evening.  Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat
stroke.  Wear light weight and loose fitting clothing when
possible and drink plenty of water. 

To reduce risk during outdoor work the occupational safety and
health administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks
in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by
heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location.
Heat stroke is an emergency - call 911.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this heat advisory 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 heat advisory went out at Jul 15, 2:44 PM PDT, 13 hours 12 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 15, 2:44 PM PDT, 13 hours 12 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
244 PM PDT Sun Jul 15 2018

.SYNOPSIS...Scattered thunderstorms will continue to develop over
portions of Trinity County this afternoon. Otherwise hot and dry
conditions will be the rule for the next week across northwest
California. The exception will be at the coast, where cooler
temperatures will accompany nighttime and morning clouds and fog.

&&

.DISCUSSION...The forecast remains on track this afternoon with
persistent hot weather expected for the upcoming week in addition
to thunderstorms and fire weather concerns for this afternoon.

An upper-level trough continues to track eastward and into
northern California and southern Oregon this afternoon and has
already kick started thunderstorm development over Siskiyou and
northern Trinity counties. These conditions are expected to
continue into the early evening hours as instability and mid-
level moisture remain present. After that, favorable thunderstorm
conditions will start to wane but the main upper- level trough
will be passing by late tonight into early Monday morning. This
will need to be watched, as mid- level lapse rates will remain
quite steep. The GFS has a few signals that a stray shower or
thunderstorm may develop over northern Trinity County between
midnight and 3am, but overall drier air will be filtering in from
the west- southwest.

Aside from these afternoon storms, dry weather is expected across
our region through the upcoming week. A strong ridge of upper-
level high pressure will dominate the weather across much of the
western United States. This will be the main driver behind our hot
and dry weather, which will continue for inland northwest
California. Monday will likely see readings begin to rise, with a
Heat Advisory hoisted for that period. Tuesday and Wednesday are
projected to see the hottest temperatures, with model guidance
indicating values as high as 105 to 110 across the hottest valleys
of Trinity County. Will maintain the Excessive Heat Watch for
that period. Coastal areas will remain cool, under the influence
of marine air. As the interior heats up, and offshore high
pressure remains, northerly winds over the coastal waters will
start to pick up, but remain largely offshore. Expect a shallow
marine layer under the subsidence inversion, with clouds not
extending too far inland, and retreating from coastal areas most
afternoons through the week ahead. If anything, the trend may be
toward clear skies persisting along portions of the coast south of
Cape Mendocino and around Pt St George this week. KR/AAD

&&

.AVIATION...Coastal stratus has been very slow to clear today with
CEC still reporting IFR ceilings as of 2 pm. CEC should eventually
clear up for a short period of time this afternoon before the low
clouds and reduced visibilities moves back in this evening. Stratus
is also lingering just offshore at ACV therefore, IFR to LIFR
ceilings and visibilities will surge back into ACV this evening.
Across the interior, convective clouds are increasing in coverage
primarily in Trinity County with a few isolated thunderstorms
ongoing. VFR conditions will continue at UKI. /WCI

&&

.MARINE...Light southerly winds continue to impact the
nearshore waters this afternoon becoming more northerly tonight.
These northerly winds will begin to increase across the outer waters
tomorrow afternoon and a small craft advisory has been issued.
Currently, seas are being primarily dominated by a fresh north-
northwest swell of 5-7 feet at around 8 seconds. Northerly winds
will continue to increase as we go through the week which will also
allow the sea state to increase. Near gale force winds will be
possible by Wednesday across the outer waters. These strong winds
and steep seas will persist through the weekend. /WCI

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...The forecast remains on track this afternoon as
cumulus clouds and thunderstorms have developed over Trinity
County. Most of the storms have been confined to the Trinity Horn
(between Carrville and Callahan) with a few cells also popping up
between Junction City, Douglas City, and Hayfork. These conditions
will likely continue into the early evening hours with storms
tracking northeastward after they develop. The good news is that
storm chances will trend downward as we get closer to midnight
with maybe a few isolated showers or storms lingering until 2 or 3
AM.

Once the threat for thunderstorms comes to an end, our attention then
turns to the hot and dry weather conditions for the upcoming work
week. Temperatures of 100 to 110 and afternoon RH in the teens
can be expected for much of the interior Monday through Wednesday.
Winds will remain generally light and heavily terrain influenced,
with onshore flow in the afternoons and offshore flow at night.
