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 Mar 4, 2:30 PM PST, 11 hours 56 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 4, 2:30 PM PST, 11 hours 56 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
230 PM PST Sun Mar 4 2018
.SYNOPSIS...Clearing skies will lead to cold Monday morning lows.
This will be followed by mild conditions Monday afternoon into
Tuesday. The next chance of precipitation will arrive Wednesday
afternoon, with showers persisting into next weekend.
&&
.DISCUSSION...Upper-level ridging is yielding weak surface high
pressure over the coast of northwest California Sunday afternoon.
This quiescent pattern is favoring terrain dominated thermal
circulations, characterized by a weak sea breeze near the coast,
and upslope mountain flows accompanied by widespread cumulus
development over the high terrain. Going into tonight, the flow
regime will reverse as clouds clear and a cold/dense inland
airmass yields light easterlies flowing out across the coast.
Temperatures in the low to mid 30s will subsequently develop
towards waters edge, which has prompted the issuance of a frost
advisory from coastal Del Norte south to the Eel River, as well as
portions of coastal and interior Mendocino County. Elsewhere,
lows generally in the 20s will be probable.
After Monday morning, plentiful sunshine is forecast to prevail
across much of the region, which will support mild afternoon highs
in the 50s. Despite an increase in upper-level cloudiness, highs
during Tuesday are forecast to warm several more degrees, with
coastal locations approaching 60.
Model guidance continues to show a large upper low developing
west of California by mid week. This feature is forecast to
transport sub-tropical moisture northeastward, which will aid in
widespread precipitation Wednesday afternoon and night as strong
warm air advection/isentropic upglide spreads across the region.
After the Wednesday rain event, showers will continue to impact
northwest California into the weekend due to the presence of an
unsettled and active west-southwest upper flow regime.
&&
.AVIATION...Developing easterly winds will reduce the potential
for MVFR conditions at the coastal terminals tonight through
Monday morning. There is a slight chance for reduced vsbys from
mist and brief low clouds this evening before drying easterlies
develop overnight. For the interior valleys, moist grounds along
with clearer skies will be ideal for the development of fog or low
clouds. For KUKI in particular, confidence is not high IFR
conditions will redevelop tonight. There is an outside chance for
IFR conditions at KUKI due to moist ground conditions and shallow
moist air that the models do not account for very well.
&&
.MARINE...Broad high pressure will build tonight and promote
light to locally moderate winds through Tue. Strong southerly
winds will be possible on Wed as a storm winds up over the NE
Pacific. Short period southerly wind waves will build on Wed as
well, primarily in the outer waters. The southerly wind waves
combined with a short period SW swell and a long period NW swell
will likely result in elevated seas for the latter portion of the
week (mainly on Thu). Guidance indicates the potential for another
frontal passage for the weekend.
BEACH HAZARDS...There is a potential for sneaker waves for
northwest and west facing beaches on Monday. Wave model guidance
continues to indicate NW swell around 5 ft with periods near 17
seconds arriving on Monday. With nice weather conditions and light
easterly winds in the morning, beach conditions may be ripe for
surprise sets and enhanced wave run-up. Based on our sneaker wave
algorithm, the greatest threat will be during the morning for Del
Norte county and Humboldt county shores, and in the afternoon for
the Mendocino coast.
&&
