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 May 24, 4:01 AM PDT, 10 hours 33 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 24, 4:01 AM PDT, 10 hours 33 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
401 AM PDT Thu May 24 2018

.SYNOPSIS...Showers will increase in coverage late this afternoon
into tonight as an upper disturbance approaches the region. In
addition, isolated thunderstorms will be possible over interior
areas this afternoon, and some of this activity may spread
westward across the coast tonight. Showers will continue during
Friday, followed by drier conditions Saturday afternoon into
Sunday. Thereafter, warm weather is expected across much of the
interior during early to middle portions of next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...An upper-level trough was positioned offshore from
the West Coast early Thursday morning. Ahead of the trough, radar
imagery showed very light shower activity beginning to spread
northward across the EKA coastal waters. Short term model guidance
indicates these showers will generally remain offshore through
early afternoon. However, surface heating over Trinity and
northeastern Mendocino Counties will aid in destabilization
sufficient for isolated shower and thunderstorm development during
the late afternoon.

Meanwhile, a stable marine boundary layer and associated stratus
will generally persist across the ocean and adjacent coast. Atop
the stable boundary layer, model guidance indicates lapse rates
will steepen above the 800 mb level tonight resulting in MUCAPE
values increasing to 400 J/kg (based on NAM forecast soundings).
This destabilization combined with a plume of strong ascent
rotating WNW around a closed upper low will aid in the development
of numerous showers and isolated thunderstorms in the vicinity of
the Humboldt, Del Norte, and possibly Mendocino Coasts.

The previously mentioned upper low is forecast to move inland
across the Bay Area during Friday afternoon. Showers will continue
to occur to its north through Friday night, and then
dissipate/exit east by Saturday afternoon. A dry subsident airmass
will subsequently spread south across the region Saturday night
and Sunday, which will favor increasing sunshine across the
interior and much warmer temperatures. Elsewhere, marine stratus
is likely over the coastal waters, with local penetration inland
yielding cooler temperatures across the Del Norte, Humboldt, and
Mendocino coast.

&&

.AVIATION...A deep marine layer will persist through the day,
with drizzle expected at ACV and CEC during the morning hours.
Periods of IFR and even periodically LIFR conditions will be
possible at both ACV and CEC during the early morning hours, but
should lift to MVFR late in the morning. While some dissipation of
low ceilings is possible at coastal terminals by the afternoon,
it is unlikely that clouds will clear completely. Low clouds will
also penetrate far inland to smaller terminals like Kneeland and
Weaverville...with gradual clearing during the afternoon. Ceilings
will fluctuate between MVFR and VFR both along the coast and at
UKI through the afternoon.

Showers and potentially a few thunderstorms will start to develop
inland by mid to late afternoon...but are expected to spread west
to the coast overnight. A few strikes of lightning and heavy
downbursts will be possible at both CEC and ACV through the night.
/BRC

&&

.MARINE...Generally light northerly winds will persist through
the day Thursday, aside from some nearshore areas where flow
reversals will turn winds to the south. As a result, seas will
remain generally dominated by lingering northwest and southerly
swells, and mostly below 7 feet in height. A few strikes of
lightning will be possible overnight Thursday through Friday.

Friday and Saturday northerly winds will increase to between 15
to 25 kt...and will generate slightly larger and steeper seas
perhaps reaching 7 to 9 feet and within range of Small Craft
Advisory conditions. However, a much more substantial increase in
northerly winds will begin Sunday and continue through at least
the end of the work week, with periods of Gale force winds
expected Monday and beyond. This will undoubtedly result in
building steep seas, and much more hazardous conditions throughout
the waters for much of next week. /BRC
