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 Sep 3, 3:03 PM PDT, 11 hours 25 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Sep 3, 3:03 PM PDT, 11 hours 25 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
303 PM PDT Sat Sep 3 2022

.SYNOPSIS...Temperatures will begin a warming trend starting on
Sunday, with hot temperatures across much of the interior. Late
night and morning low clouds and patchy fog will still be found
along the coast, but more sun is expected by late morning and into
the afternoon through much of the period.

&&

.DISCUSSION...The marine layer continued to deepen overnight in
response to the passing shortwave trough. In addition, the low-
level inversion has weakened significantly. As a result, stratus
cleared quickly this morning. However, clouds have re-developed
over the coastal waters N of Cape Mendocino, and these clouds will
likely spread inland late this afternoon and this evening. Clouds
are expected to clear rapidly again Sunday morning. The inversion
is forecast to strengthen again early next week, but low-level
moisture is expected to decrease.

The Great Basin high pressure ridge will build back over the area
into early next week, with soaring high temperatures over the
interior. Have continued the existing suite of heat products for
the interior. Models are hinting that the upper ridge may be a bit
more persistent, with heat lasting into mid to even late week. If
this trend continues, heat products may need to be extended.
Models also indicate modest increases in mid-level moisture and
instability during the latter half of the week. For now, have
kept silent PoPs in the forecast during this period, but this
will need to be monitored. /SEC

&&

.AVIATION...The stratus cleared out this morning as VFR took over
with the passing of a shortwave trough that obliterated the low-
level inversion. Surface winds will generally be from the northwest
with some gustiness into the evening. Stratus is already beginning
to regain a strong presence along the coastal waters and coastline
this afternoon. Increasing heights aloft trended ceilings lower
today. Patches of stratus managed to crash into ACV later in the
morning, and was quite shallow, down to 100 ft AGL with isolated
fog. CEC is getting expanding shallow stratus already this afternoon
with LIFR CIGS. Given what is already being observed, and the
McKinleyville profiler continuing to show the developing marine
layer quickly compressing, confidence is increasing for mostly LIFR
ceilings to settle in this evening, with more periods of fog as
well. Light downsloping winds may delay a full stratus onslaught for
ACV for a few hours. Farther south in UKI, northwesterly winds will
turn calm overnight with continued VFR conditions. /JJW

&&

.MARINE...Northerly winds and steep seas are on the increase and
expanding in coverage in the southern waters this afternoon. Near
gale to gale force gusts will occur in the lee of Cape Mendocino
into the evening and again Sunday afternoon. Northerlies will
increase in the northern waters Sunday afternoon through Monday.
Northerly winds and steep wind-driven seas will be highest on Monday
when areas of gale to near gale will exist lee of the cape, and
especially in the north half of the northern waters. An area of
steep and hazardous seas up to 11 ft will develop in response to the
stronger winds in the northern outer zone 470 later Monday, but
coverage does not meet criteria at this time to exceed the current
Small Craft Advisory out now. The zone will be monitored. /JJW
