are expected to produce hazardous wave conditions to small craft.
Inexperienced mariners, especially those operating smaller
vessels should avoid navigating in these conditions.

A GALE WARNING MEANS WINDS OF 34 TO 47 KNOTS ARE IMMINENT OR
OCCURRING. OPERATING A VESSEL IN GALE CONDITIONS REQUIRES
EXPERIENCE AND PROPERLY EQUIPPED VESSELS. IT IS HIGHLY
RECOMMENDED THAT MARINERS WITHOUT THE PROPER EXPERIENCE SEEK SAFE
HARBOR PRIOR TO THE ONSET OF GALE CONDITIONS.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft 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 small craft advisory went out at Jan 24, 4:28 AM PST, 4 hours 35 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 24, 4:28 AM PST, 4 hours 35 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
428 AM PST Wed Jan 24 2018

.SYNOPSIS...Wet weather is forecast for the next couple of days.
Heavy rain is forecast for today and will transition to showery
precipitation for tomorrow. Near the coast, expect rain showers
and isolated thunderstorms with small hail while interior areas
see snow down to 2,500 feet.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A frontal system will continue to pass over the
region bringing widespread rainfall to northwest California. As of
this morning, Del Norte County has seen 0.5 to 1.14 inches of
rain while Humboldt and Trinity County has seen anywhere between
traceable amounts to roughly 0.25 inches of rain. Mendocino County
remains dry at this time; however, the rain is forecast to arrive
mid to late morning. Total rainfall accumulations for today will
be 0.5 to 3 inches for Mendocino County, 0.5 to 2 inches for
Trinity County, 1 to 2 inches for Humboldt, and a whooping 2 to 3
inches for Del Norte. Snow levels will remain fairly high for this
first round of rain, around 4,000 feet, but will fall as we head
into Thursday as colder air filters in behind this system.
Precipitation will become more showery in nature with snow
accumulating down to 2,500 feet for Trinity County and interior
Del Norte, Humboldt, and northeastern Mendocino Counties. From
Wednesday night through Friday morning, 2 to 7 inches of snow is
looking likely for the following locations: Collier Tunnel, Berry
Summit, Buckhorn Summit, and Oregon Mountain. Travel conditions
for these passes will likely be dreary as roads will become
slippery and visibilities will deterioate. Near the coast, look
for rain showers, isolated thunderstorms, and occasionally some
small hail in stronger showers and storms. Showers will continue
into Friday. Models continue to indicate that an atmospheric river
will impact northern NW California on Saturday, before shifting
to the north towards Oregon on Sunday. This may mean a wet
Saturday for NW CA, then drying on Sunday.

&&

.AVIATION...Conditions will deteriorate as the cold front continues
to track across the region bringing moderate rainfall to northwest
California airfields. South winds will be generally gusty through
the morning hours and diminish into the the afternoon. Ceilings are
generally VFR but may periodically deteriorate to MVFR and IFR with
periods of heavy rain. The frontal boundary should pass overhead
much of the north state by the evening with lingering showers
possible later tonight. /KML

&&

.MARINE...Southerly gales early this morning will gradually diminish
into the afternoon. Generally moderate, southwest winds will persist
through the rest of the work week with some near gales possible for
Saturday. Steep, wind driven waves will slowly settle through the
day with large westerly swell systems impacting the waters through
the weekend. Gale warnings are still set to expire with the 9 AM
marine update, although winds will continue to be gusty into the
afternoon. Small craft advisories for large seas will be needed once
the the gale warning expires. /KML
