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 Aug 22, 2:27 PM PDT, 12 hours 29 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 22, 2:27 PM PDT, 12 hours 29 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
227 PM PDT Wed Aug 22 2018

.SYNOPSIS...A storm track emanating out of Alaska will aid in
slightly below normal temperatures during the next seven days.
Otherwise, smoke will persist across the region through the work
week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Widespread stratus was observed along the coast and
points offshore Wednesday afternoon. In addition, a sufficiently
deep marine layer combined with a weak southerly pressure gradient
over southern Mendocino County has recently aided in nightly
bouts of stratus in the vicinity of Ukiah. Current observations
and short term model guidance indicate stratus will redevelop
over the Russian River valley tonight, and then dissipate once
again during Thursday afternoon.

Otherwise, model guidance indicates a series of upper troughs
will dig from Alaska southeastward across the NWRN CONUS during
the next seven days. This flow regime will favor slightly below
normal temperatures across the interior...with highs generally in
the 70s and 80s. Elsewhere, onshore flow will maintain a cool
marine airmass across the coast with highs in the 50s and 60s.

Large-scale subsidence is expected to preclude rainfall
throughout the forecast period...with the exception of non-
accumulating drizzle associated with marine stratus.

&&

.AVIATION...Coastal stratus has remained along the entire coast
again today. As of 2 pm there was a bit of clearing occurring
along and just north of Cape Mendocino. It is possible that this
isolated slot of clearing will move across Humboldt Bay/ACV and
potentially lead to a short period of clearing later this
afternoon. Elsewhere, stratus will continue through this evening
along the coast with smoky conditions inland. For this evening,
ceilings and visibilities will drop back down to IFR to LIFR
conditions yet again by late this evening. Marine depth is still a
bit deeper to our south as depicted from the Bodega Bay profiler.
With southerly winds also ongoing expect stratus to make it back
into UKI by early tomorrow morning.

&&

.MARINE...Light to moderate southerly to southwesterly winds will
persist through this evening across the waters. By early Thursday
morning winds will switch around from the north yet again and
begin to increase in intensity as the day goes on. Small craft
advisories for at least the outer waters will be necessary by late
Thursday night or early Friday morning. There is the potential
for some gale force gusts across the outer waters on Friday and
Saturday however due to the marginal gale force wind speeds at
this time will hold off and allow the night shift to look at the
new model data before deciding if gale products are needed. /WCI

&&

.EKA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
CA...None.
NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA COASTAL WATERS...None.
