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 Sep 21, 2:40 PM PDT, 6 hours 12 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Sep 21, 2:40 PM PDT, 6 hours 12 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Eureka CA 240 PM PDT Fri Sep 21 2018 .SYNOPSIS...Dry weather with a cooling trend is expected for this weekend. Temperatures will warm up again early next week. && .DISCUSSION...An upper level trough and a very weak frontal boundary is approaching the area this afternoon. Currently skies are mainly clear, although there is some cirrus associated with this system. A southerly surge of stratus is making it's way north, but is still south of Pt Arena. This stratus will likely push north onto the Mendocino coast tonight. Farther north stratus is expected to develop along the Humboldt and Del Norte coasts overnight. Confidence is low on the timing of this. There may be some drizzle towards morning along the coast. Saturday a mainly dry frontal boundary will move across the area, but it will likely bring some mid level clouds. Temperatures are expected to be cooler than today across the interior as this front moves through. Saturday night into early Sunday the trough axis moves through. North to northeast winds will increase behind this. Sunday is expected to see cooler temperatures, but skies should clear out fairly quickly. Monday high pressure starts to build into the area as the trough pushes off to the east. Protected interior valleys will likely see their coldest morning of the week and a few local areas may see frost. Offshore flow is expected to keep skies mostly clear Sunday night into Monday. Northeast winds with gusts to 20 mph are possible over the ridges, especially in northern Humboldt and Del Norte counties. Tuesday the high pressure centers itself over the area and winds will diminish. Very weak offshore flow aloft should keep skies mainly clear, although some lingering stratus is possible on the Mendocino coast overnight. This will likely bring warm temperatures to the coastal areas. The Humboldt and Del Norte coastal areas could see temperatures around 70. Wednesday will likely see similar conditions, although stratus starts to become more likely as the ridge slowly moves east. Late in the week an upper level low starts to dig under the ridge and bring some cooler air to the area. This may bring a return of the coastal stratus depending on the location of the low. Models are struggling with the details of the location of this low. Temperatures will likely be cooler across the interior on Friday. MKK && .AVIATION...Overnight conditions along the North Coast was mostly VFR, except for a very brief mid-morning IFR Cig/Vis report at CEC. Otherwise, an influx of high clouds continued to trek across NW California today ahead of an approaching (mostly dry)front. A surge of stratus, located near the mouth of the Russian River in Sonoma about 12:30 PM, was moving up the Coast > 10-12 mph, but northerlies will most likely prevent rounding of Cape Mendocino. The stratus will impact Mendocino coastal airstrips overnight. By Saturday morning, model guidance is suggesting areas of local stratus development north of the Cape. The approaching front could enhance stratus and impact coastal airports with lower Cigs/Vis and some drizzle reports. UKI and other inland valleys will remain VFR through Saturday afternoon. /TA && .MARINE....Winds and seas will continue to gradually diminish tonight into Saturday as an upper level trough and very weak frontal boundary. Southerly winds are possible later tonight along the Mendocino coast as a surge of stratus moves to the north. Northerly winds will persist in the southern outer waters this evening and diminish late tonight. Northerlies will ramp up once again during the day Saturday and Sunday once the trough moves through and high pressure builds into the area. Gale force gusts possible across the outer waters. Winds and seas will then weaken around the middle of next week. A southwesterly swell with a period around 16 seconds will continue through early Sunday morning with another southwesterly swell forecast to arrive around midweek. && .FIRE WEATHER...Conditions should improve on Saturday as an upper level trough digs down from the Pacific Northwest. RH's will increase as temperatures decrease and marine air pushes into the interior valleys. Gusty west to northwest winds will be possible on Saturday behind a dry cold front. Offshore flow is expected to develop Saturday night into Sunday morning, but RH's will remain fairly high. Another warm up is expected for early next week. Offshore flow will increase and peak Sunday night. Low RH is expected over the ridges. Have added a headline to the fire weather forecast, this will need to be monitored as it gets closer. Offshore flow will weaken on Tuesday, although RH will remain fairly low. Winds will become light on Wednesday. MKK && .EKA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CA...None.
