What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this gale warning 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 gale warning went out at Sep 26, 5:02 AM PDT, 5 hours 1 minute earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Sep 26, 5:02 AM PDT, 5 hours 1 minute before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
502 AM PDT Sat Sep 26 2020

.SYNOPSIS...Residual moisture with a weak front will scour out today
as breezy northwesterly winds develop. Warming and drying along
with robust northeast and east winds will result in elevated fire
weather conditions late tonight through Monday. Dry weather with
above normal temperatures are expected all next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Patches of fog and very light drizzle will be possible
early this morning for mostly coastal areas. Otherwise, drying
and clearing are expected later today as high pressure offshore
builds toward the coast and breezy northwesterlies develop. Fire
weather concerns will increase across Lake County as early as this
evening as a robust 925mb northerly speed max develops over the
Sacramento Valley and spreads out across the northern SFO Bay area
by Sunday morning. Strong north-northeasterly winds will clip,
mostly the higher elevations of Lake County, with perhaps gusts to
40-45 mph. RH's will start to tank into the single digits and
teens on Sunday as strong warming and large scale subsidence
develops across the area. The very low RH's coupled with sustained
blustery northeast-east winds will result in elevated to critical
fire weather conditions for most all interior areas on Sunday.
The robust northeast-east winds will persist through Sunday night
before slowly easing up through the day on Monday.

Strong warming is expected Sunday and Monday as a massive ridge
aloft builds over the area. Ensemble and deterministic guidance
continue to support near record heat for coastal areas as well as
the interior valleys. There is definitely a good chance we could
reach 80F or more along the coast on Monday. Even though the
interior valleys are forecast to warm into the low 100's, the
longer nights will likely mitigate the heat risk in the interior.
This is still 15 to 20 degrees F above late September normals.

The largest unknown factor is the smoke from the wildfires,
particularly the August Complex which has received very little
or no rain. Fire activity om the Slater and Red-Salmon complex
may also increase again under the dry offshore flow. The one
upshot is that temperatures have been fairly cool with high
humidities leading up to this offshore wind event. Previous
offshore events were proceeded by oppressive heat. The smoke
situation will need to be watched today and Sunday. If fire
activity increases, plumes of thick smoke will travel westward
right over the coast and across much of the interior. The thick
smoke could knock high temperatures down by 10 to 20F and block
out the sun all day. The little bit of rain we've received over
the last 2 to 3 days is not sufficient to completely extinguish
the fires and suspect we will see at least some smoke. How much is
highly uncertain and will depend on fire behavior and how active
the fires become in response to the very dry offshore winds.

Unfortunately, more rain will not be possible for the next 7 days
as a blocking ridge aloft maintains extremely dry conditions and
generally above normal temperatures through next week. Offshore
winds will likely begin to weaken by mid week, with gradually
lowering temperatures, especially near the coast.

&&

.AVIATION...Rain has generally come to end across Northwest
California, though there may be some lingering showers out there
through around mid-morning. Coastal terminals will likely continue
to experience anywhere from LIFR to MVFR conditions this morning,
with periods of mist and lower ceilings. Guidance then suggests that
conditions will improve to VFR for the remainder of the TAF period.
Though, do suspect there will be some occasional dips to MVFR (or
lower) at both coastal terminals, with some areas of shallow mist or
ground fog possibly developing in the vicinity of the terminals. VFR
conditions are expected to prevail at KUKI through the TAF period.
In addition, winds will be breezy this afternoon at all three
terminals, with some gusts likely exceeding 20 knots.

&&

.MARINE...Northerlies will continue to redevelop over all zones this
morning and increase as we head into this afternoon. Gales to near
gales are expected to develop around mid-morning on Sunday over the
outer waters. The inner waters will remain generally less, mostly in
the moderate breeze range, but stronger winds are expected around
Point Saint George and Cape Mendocino. A Gale Watch remains in
effect starting mid-morning on Sunday for the outer waters and we'll
need Small Craft Advisories ahead of the watch and for the inner
waters when the current advisories expire this morning. Winds will
begin to weaken Sunday evening from south to north and become light
to gentle southerly breezes by Tuesday morning. Northerlies are
forecast to redevelop Wednesday morning and increase slightly.
Otherwise, the large, northwest swell will slowly diminish through
the weekend, with a smaller northwest swell set to move through the
waters beginning early next week.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...Still on track for another fire weather event this
weekend into Monday. If anything, models have trended a bit stronger
with offshore winds on Sunday and Sunday night, and thus raised
winds and gust values somewhat in the Red Flag Warning. While the
first dose of wind clips Lake County as early as Saturday evening,
the most critical period is going to be Sunday afternoon through
Monday, as drier air comes in. Recoveries look exceptionally poor
on Sunday night, perhaps struggling to get over 20 percent over
some of the interior ridgetops in the Warning area. Winds will
subside gradually into Monday morning, but in talking with our
neighboring offices, felt it was prudent to continue the warning
until Noon on Monday. Min RH Monday might be in the single digits
in some interior valleys. Meanwhile, WFO MFR has issued a Fire
Weather Watch for adjacent counties Siskiyou and Curry, as it
sounds like the latest intel from fuel experts and the IMETs is
that critical conditions can still be reached with the stronger
ridgetop winds and drier humidity coming in Sunday night into
Monday. We will likely have to issue a watch for adjacent portions
of the interior ridges in interior Del Norte and northeast
Humboldt as a result. The rest of next week will be hot and dry,
but at least temperatures and RH should begin to improve toward
the 2nd half of the week, especially near the coast. /AAD
