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 San Francisco Bay Area, CA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Jan 4, 2:08 PM PST, 30 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 4, 2:08 PM PST, 30 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Francisco Bay Area
208 PM PST Sat Jan 4 2020
.SYNOPSIS...A weak cold front swept through this morning and
another weak disturbance arrives tonight. Generally dry
conditions and seasonable afternoon temperatures and chilly
overnight lows into early next week. A weak system arrives later
Tuesday.
&&
.DISCUSSION...as of 02:00 PM PST Saturday... A weak cold frontal
arrived from the northwest overnight and advanced across the San
Francisco Bay Area through this morning before fizzling out and
dissolving as it attempted to move over the Santa Cruz mountains.
Precipitation amounts were generally up to around a quarter of an
inch for the coastal North Bay and 0.05 - 0.15" for inland North
Bay. A few select locations in the immediate San Francisco Bay
Area and Santa Cruz Mountains picked up from a trace to a few
hundredths of an inch before the front fell apart. KMUX radar has
been returned to clear air mode with no more precipitation
expected from this front.
Latest visible imagery shows partly to mostly cloudy skies, though
with clouds on the downtrend. Temperatures are running similar to
yesterdays readings at this time though most locations are slightly
cooler in the wake of the cold front. Another disturbance will
arrive overnight tonight and advect in cooler air to the region
while bringing a slight chance of an isolated shower or two the
coastal North Bay. The main impact from this second disturbance
moving through tonight will be to further cool the atmosphere and
set the stage for chilly overnight to early morning temperatures
beginning tonight and persisting through at least Tuesday morning.
Overnight low for most inland areas away from the shore/coastlines
could drop into the mid to upper 30s, while areas closer to
moderating influences of the bays/ocean will drop to the low to
mid 40s through the coming nights. This temperatures may be low
enough to stress or harm vulnerable populations without access to
adequate warmth or shelter, livestock, and pets.
A low amplitude ridge will develop early next work week and result
in dry, seasonal conditions into Tuesday morning. Models then
depict another weak low pressure sweeping through the region from
midday Tuesday into Tuesday night. Consequently, a slight chance
of rain showers will exist by Tuesday afternoon/evening for the
North Bay and possibly farther southward, while more cold air will
advect in and contribute to more chilly nights later in the work
week under a weak building ridge late in the week. Models have
continued to show another low pressure system impacting California
late Friday night into early next weekend. While this system looks
stronger than today and the mid week system, it still looks to
fall on the weaker end of the spectrum. That said, we are carrying
a chance of rain regionwide for this system and may be indicative
of the return of more potent storm system for the area moving
later into the winter. The 384 hour gfs suggests a pair of
somewhat more potent systems arriving around mid January (15th
and 20th).
&&
.AVIATION...as of 9:31 AM PST Saturday...For 18z tafs. MVFR cigs
continue around the SF Bay Area this morning as a frontal system
moves through. SE winds will continue ahead of the front, but are
expected to remain generally less than 10 kt. Once the front
passes, expect cigs to lift to VFR and winds to shift out of the W
to NW this afternoon at around 10-15 kt. VFR conditions to then
prevail for most sites through the period. The exceptions will be
possible fog in the North Bay early tomorrow morning and the
return of low cigs around the Monterey Bay terminals this evening.
Vicinity of KSFO...MVFR cigs to continue until around 20z-21z with
occasional SCT cigs possible in the mean time. Cigs then expected
to lift to VFR with FEW to SCT low cigs remaining. Winds this
morning have been variable, and this will likely continue until
shifting out of the W to NW this afternoon. Winds to increase to
around 10-15 kt after 20z with gusts in the early evening around
20 kt possible.
SFO Bridge Approach...Similar to KSFO, but MVFR cigs may take
longer to clear along the approach.
Monterey Bay Terminals...VFR conditions into this evening with SCT
to BKN cigs around 3,000 to 5,000 feet through the afternoon
around the Peninsula. Expect MVFR cigs to return by the early
evening. Light SE winds this morning will become W to NW this
afternoon.
&&
.MARINE...as of 08:57 AM PST Saturday...In the wake of the front
that passed over the coastal waters this morning expect near gale
conditions out of the north to develop. Winds are forecast to
decrease on Sunday as a second weak front passes north of the area
but increases again Monday as high pressure off the California
coast builds into southern Oregon.
