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 20, 2:48 PM PDT, 12 hours 2 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 20, 2:48 PM PDT, 12 hours 2 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
248 PM PDT Tue Aug 20 2019

.SYNOPSIS...Seasonable temperatures will persist through Wednesday.
In addition, there is a chance for light rain Wednesday afternoon
and evening over Del Norte County. Warmer temperatures are
expected across the interior for the end of the week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Coastal stratus has mostly dissipated as of early
this afternoon, revealing mostly sunny skies across NW California.
A few mid/high level clouds are beginning to spread into the
region ahead of an upper trough which is poised to move inland
over the Pacific Northwest on Wednesday. Forecast thinking
regarding this feature is largely unchanged from the past few
days as a weak front approaches the far northern portion of the
area and brings a chance for light rain to Del Norte and possibly
northern Humboldt County. This will be supported by impressive
mid August precipitable water values around 1.75 inches, which
combined with the synoptic forcing could be enough to generate a
few hundredths of an inch of precipitation near the Oregon border
and perhaps a few sprinkles as far south as the Humboldt Bay
region.

The trough will quickly depart Wednesday night, leaving the area
beneath quasi-zonal flow on the northern periphery of a
subtropical Pacific ridge during the end of the week. Expect
interior temperatures to gradually trend upward during this time
as heights slowly rise and 850 mb temps increase from the mid to
upper teens into the low 20s C. No additional precipitation is
expected from Thursday into early next week. /CB

&&

.AVIATION...The near complete erosion of coastal stratus has
allowed VFR conditions to prevail across the area this afternoon,
with this trend expected to continue well into the evening. The
primary forecast challenge will be timing the return of the
stratus to coastal terminals tonight. Thinking this could be
delayed a bit longer than in recent days given the extent to which
low clouds have cleared over the coastal waters today, but the
marine layer is still sufficiently deep that stratus should reform
at some point, possibly after 06z. Low clouds and patchy fog are
then expected to bring IFR/LIFR conditions to ACV and CEC through
Wednesday morning, with some improvement expected around 15z. UKI
and other inland airfields should remain VFR for the duration of
the TAF period. /CB

&&

.MARINE...Relatively tranquil marine conditions will persist for
the next 24 hrs or so as a relaxed pressure gradient supports
mainly light winds and low seas across the coastal waters.
Developing moderate to fresh southerly breezes may clip the far
northern outer waters later tonight ahead of the system moving
through on Wednesday, but these conditions are mostly expected to
remain north of the area. A mid period swell around 7 feet at 12
seconds will enter the waters later on Wednesday, resulting in a
more elevated sea state than has been observed in recent days.
Strong northerlies will then quickly return Wednesday night behind
the departing system, with short period seas rapidly building in
response through Thursday. This will likely necessitate the next
round of headlines by Thursday morning. The northerly wind regime
then looks to persist into at least the early part of next week.
