AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
445 AM PST Fri Nov 25 2022
.SYNOPSIS...Sunny weather will continue today will slightly cooler
temperatures. A cold front this evening will bring broken clouds
along the North Coast along with some possible drizzle. Cooler
weather will persist this weekend with light rain expected Monday.
&&
.DISCUSSION...Offshore wind has continued overnight albeit weaker
than Thursday morning. Gusts have peaked on ridges in Lake County
above 25 mph. These winds have continued to keep skies clear
overnight allowing for near freezing low temperatures for inland
valleys.
As high pressure continues to push east, slightly cooler
temperates are expected today with inland valleys struggling to
reach the upper 60s. A weak cold front will approach and pass over
the area this evening. With little tropical air to tap into, this
front be mostly dry with only light drizzle possible along the
Humboldt and Del Norte coasts. Any amount of rain over 0.1 inches is
highly unlikely. Still associated onshore flow will kick off a
definite cooling and moistening trend with temperatures set to the
low 60s to mid 50s by Sunday with increased fog and frost in near
coastal valleys.
Cluster ensembles now generally agree that a deep but narrow upper
level trough will sweep across the coast late Sunday into Monday.
Rain estimates have stayed consistent over the past 24 hours. Most
wetting rain will stay concentrated the coastal Mountains of
Humboldt and Del Norte Counties with best rain estimates of 0.1 to
0.4 inches. Amounts elsewhere are unlikely to be above 0.1 inches,
especially in southern Mendocino and Lake counties where nothing
more than a trace is expected. The upper level trough will welcome
in further cooling throughout the area with interior valleys
returning to upper 40s to low 50s by Monday. Cooler weather will
drop snow levels as low as 2500 feet though actual snow accumulation
will remain below 1 inch except on the highest peaks of the
Southwest Klamath Mountains where amounts of 2 to 5 inches are
possible.
After a brief lull, 80% of cluster ensembles show another trough
next Wednesday and Thursday. About 20% still show a particularly
deep trough with the rest showing a weak one similar to earlier in
the week. With fewer members showing a strong trough, best rainfall
estimates along the North Coast have narrowed a bit now 0.2 to 1.0
inches with 0.1 to 0.6 further south. Low snow levels could support
1 to 3 inches of snow as low as 2000 feet. About 30% of cluster
ensemble members (as well as the deterministic NBM) currently show
cold air lingering late next week before moving east. This scenario
would bring freezing conditions to much of the coast next Friday and
drop snow levels as low as 500 feet. At this elevation, even a small
amount of snow fall would be impactful. This scenario will bear
close observation. /JHW

.AVIATION...Offshore flow is continuing to bring mainly clear skies
to the coast this morning. High clouds have started to move over the
area in advance of a weak frontal boundary. VFR conditions are
expected through much of the day as the clouds gradually lower. Some
haze is possible at the coast and that may bring MVFR conditions. It
looks like the front will bring a short period of low clouds and
light rain bringing a brief period of IFR conditions this evening
north of Cape Mendocino. Late tonight the north winds will quickly
become northerly and increase to 6 to 8 kt. This should help clear
out any lingering clouds by sunrise. Areas farther inland are
expected to remain VFR. MKK

.MARINE...A weak frontal boundary is approaching the area this
morning and bringing some light southerly winds. This evening the
winds are expected to switch to the north and rapidly increase to 20
to 25 kt. These winds are expected to peak Saturday afternoon around
20 to 30 kt. A few gusts to 35 kt are expected, but the strongest
winds are expected to be fairly shortlived so will hold off on
issuing a gale warning. This will bring large wind driven seas which
may peak around 12 feet.
The westerly swell has built to around 10 to 12 at 15 seconds this
morning and continues to move across the waters. It will be start to
diminish late this afternoon and tonight. Have generally gone 1 or 2
feet above the wave model guidance based on the current buoy
observations. Some set behavior likely remains, but the buoys are
showing it has diminished from earlier. So have allowed the Beach
Hazard statement to expire. This swell will generally persist
through the weekend and slowly diminish. Early next week it is
reinforced and increases to around 10 feet at 14 seconds. Another
long period swell builds in late on Tuesday.
Tuesday the models are showing the winds diminish, but aren't
showing much of a shift. Wednesday the models are showing the
potential for a frontal boundary bringing southerly winds, but this
looks brief. MKK
