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 Oct 27, 4:29 AM PDT, 4 hours 32 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Oct 27, 4:29 AM PDT, 4 hours 32 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
429 AM PDT Sun Oct 27 2019

.SYNOPSIS...Strong east-northeast ridgetop winds will persist
through Sunday night resulting in critical fire weather conditions
across portions of southeast Humboldt, southern Trinity, and
interior Mendocino counties. Otherwise, an upper ridge centered
offshore will favor mild and dry weather during the next seven
days.

&&

.DISCUSSION...The inherited forecast remains on track. A potent
shortwave trough is moving south across NRN CA early Sunday
morning, and surface high pressure is building over the Great
Basin. Strong east-northeast winds have subsequently developed
across area ridgetops resulting in high wind potential that will
persist through part of the day. In addition, critical fire
weather conditions will occur today and tonight. Reference the
fire weather discussion below for more information.

Otherwise, no rain is expected during the next seven days due to
persistent upper-level ridging occurring in the vicinity of the
West Coast. In addition, mild afternoon conditions are expected
through next week, though morning temperatures near freezing may
occur across interior valleys as cold dry continental air drains
south and west across the area. At this time, the coldest
temperatures ranging from the mid 20s to low 30s are forecast to
occur Wednesday morning across interior valleys.

Another trough digging across the Great Basin during mid week will
aid in a second round of gusty offshore winds. Possible impacts
associated with that wind event will continue to be assessed.

CB/JMG/SEC

&&

.AVIATION...Gusty northerlies continue early this morning both
along the coast and interior. These winds are expected to persist
through late morning before diminishing. This afternoon northerly
winds will range from 10 to 20 kts which is a reduction of about
10 kts from yesterday. Speed and directional shear is still
likely through the daytime hours along the coast as winds at the
surface are out of the north while winds around 2500 ft are out of
the east at 25 kts. This shear should also diminish late this
afternoon. This brisk flow is dry and with the offshore component
conditions will remain VFR across the interior and coast for the
next TAF period.

&&

.MARINE...A tight northerly pressure gradient will continue to
support gale force winds today accompanied by steep hazardous
seas. Lighter winds and lower seas can be expected over much of
the coastal waters early next week.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...East-northeast flow at or above 50 kt is
occurring across area ridges early Sunday morning. In addition,
model forecast soundings continue to depict a stable layer located
in the 3000-5000 foot layer. The combination of intense cross
barrier flow, a ridge top inversion, and a critical level
associated with flow reversal aloft will favor the development of
highly amplified mountain wave structures supportive of peak wind
gusts from 60 to 80 mph downwind from higher ridges during Sunday
morning. In addition, northeast winds will usher in a critically
dry boundary layer airmass.

The combination of strong winds and low humidity values will
favor the potential for fast moving wildfires across areas of dry
fuels through tonight. The inherited Red Flag Warning remains in
effect for elevations above 1500 feet in southeast Humboldt,
southern Trinity, interior Mendocino, and northern Lake counties.
