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 Jan 6, 4:30 AM PST, 9 hours 55 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 6, 4:30 AM PST, 9 hours 55 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
430 AM PST Mon Jan 6 2020

.SYNOPSIS...Mainly clear skies and patchy valley fog will give way
to pleasant and mild afternoon conditions later today. This will
be followed by rain Tuesday afternoon through mid week. Cool and
showery weather will continue during the weekend.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Broad upper ridging is aiding in mainly clear skies
across the region, with the exception of interior valleys, where
antecedent ground moisture was supporting patchy fog. Abundant
sunshine later this afternoon will favor relatively mild
conditions. Clouds will then increase tonight ahead of an
approaching upper trough. That trough will lead to widespread
frontal rains by Tuesday afternoon, which is forecast to
transition to post-frontal showers during Tuesday evening. Weak
instability will be present behind the front as well. However, EL
temperatures are forecast to be too warm for thunderstorms.

Cool northwesterly flow aloft will aid in continued shower
development going into Wednesday, with a slightly more organized
precipitation threat occurring Wednesday night as an embedded
upper impulse moves southeast across the region. Heights then
rise over the west coast Thursday afternoon, which may aid in
clearing precipitation out of the region temporarily. The lull
will be short-lived as a cold upper trough digs south across the
Pacific Northwest during Friday. Model guidance shows frontal
precipitation entering NWRN CA Friday afternoon and evening, with
widespread showers occurring thereafter during the weekend.

&&

.AVIATION...Weak offshore flow at the surface and drier mid
levels are combining to provide vfr conditions to the TAF sites
early this morning. Weak onshore nw flow will resume later this
morning but forecast models maintain the vfr conditions through
the day with a similar pattern expected tonight. The upshot of all
this is that the next taf cycle should remain generally vfr for
all areas. The only chance of reduced vsbys would be due to
localized early morning fog across the interior valleys. UKI has
flirted with this already this morning...but any fog that does
form will burn off by mid morning.

&&

.MARINE...A short period W swell will persist resulting in
hazardous seas most of today. Seas will begin to subside late
today and into tonight before a new frontal system brings
increasing southerly winds and building seas later on Tue. For the
remainder of the week, short period W-NW swell will continue to
be the prime hazard. Uncertainty, grows large mid to late week as
another transient front swoops down from the NW. During the Wed
night and Thu morning time frame is where the models diverge
drastically. The ECMWF is most aggressive with blasting W-NW winds
while the GFS has lower SW-W winds. Thus, the sea state forecast
may be dramatically higher if the ECMWF turns out to be correct.
Both models appear to come into slightly better agreement on
Friday as another frontal system approaches from the NW. Due to
forecast office and OPC consistency will go with the higher wave
set and keep seas quite elevated during next weekend.
