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 Feb 24, 3:39 AM PST, 11 hours 10 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 24, 3:39 AM PST, 11 hours 10 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Eureka CA 339 AM PST Sat Feb 24 2018 .SYNOPSIS...Light precipitation will spread south across the region during Saturday. Heavier showers are forecast to occur Sunday night into Monday, with several inches of snow possible for elevations above 2000 feet. Additional showers and mountain snow are expected Wednesday through Friday. && .DISCUSSION...Regional radar imagery showed light precipitation spreading inland across Humboldt and Del Norte counties at 11Z. This activity will continue to progress south and east into portions of Trinity and Mendocino counties during the morning...but, precip totals will become progressively light by midday as forcing aloft exits east. By tonight, skies are forecast to clear across much of the interior, which will favor subfreezing temperatures and patchy freezing fog and/or frost. Clouds will spread south once again during Sunday ahead of an upper wave digging over the NERN PAC. This wave will enter NWRN CA late Sunday night into Monday morning. Model guidance continues to show very cold midlevel temperatures occurring within the core of the upper trough. However, the heaviest precipitation is forecast to occur ahead of the cold midlevel airmass. Thus, significant snowfall occurring across mountain highway corridors appears to be less probable at this time. In addition, the potential for widespread coastal hail showers is more marginal based on current model trends. A stronger upper-level storm system is forecast to materialize during the Wednesday through Friday time frame. Model output indicates this system will impact the region in two phases. The frontal phase will occur late Wednesday afternoon into the evening, with strong southerly winds veering to westerly with the frontal passage, potentially yielding strong gusts for exposed coastal and ridgetop locations. In addition, heavy precipitation appears probable along/ahead of the front. The second phase will occur Thursday afternoon into Friday as very cold temperatures aloft spread across the region with an occluded upper low. This environment will result in a steep lapse rate/convective regime accompanied by low freezing levels. Heavy mountain snow and coastal hail will be possible as a result. && .AVIATION...MVFR conditions and periodic light rain will persist at north coast air terminals through the morning hours as a weak trough passes across the PAC NW. Conditions should improve for the afternoon and evening hours as high pressure rebuilds behind the trough. Conditions may start to deteriorate again as early as late tonight as a new front moves toward the Oregon coast. VFR conditions will likely prevail at KUKI through the period, however brief MVFR cigs will be possible through the morning hours. && .MARINE...For the most part winds will remain sub-advisory today through Sun. North winds are forecast to increase again on Mon with gales possible over the southern waters by Mon night.
