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 28, 2:48 AM PDT, 6 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Sep 28, 2:48 AM PDT, 6 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
248 AM PDT Wed Sep 28 2022

.SYNOPSIS...A weak frontal boundary moving onshore this morning
will aid in light shower activity and relatively cool
temperatures through the afternoon hours. Warmer and drier
conditions will then develop across the region during the second
half of the week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...An occluded surface cyclone is forecast to progress
east across the NERN PAC today. An associated southward trailing
frontal boundary will subsequently move onshore over NWRN CA.
Model forecast soundings indicate moisture profiles will be
fairly shallow (at or below 5000 feet MSL) along the front.
However, weak shower development is supported by multi-model
guidance, which yields POP values ranging from 20 percent over
eastern Humboldt County to around 60 percent in the vicinity of
Crescent City. Several hundredths to around a tenth of an inch of
rain are subsequently expected across Humboldt and Del Norte
Counties as a result. Upper heights are then forecast to build
across the region tonight into Thursday. Deep-layer drying will
develop with the subsident large-scale regime and eliminate
additional precipitation development. In addition, ridging over
the NERN PAC, falling upper heights across the NRN Rockies and
NRN Great Basin, combined with building surface high pressure over
Oregon and northern Nevada, will support conditions favorable for
easterly offshore-directed winds gusting to around 20 mph across
exposed ridges in Trinity, Humboldt, and Del Norte Counties during
Friday night, which will aid in further drying the atmosphere.
High temperatures will also moderate beneath a West Coast ridge,
with values across interior valleys expected to reside in the 80s
to low 90s Friday through Tuesday.

Garner

&&

.AVIATION...Approaching low pressure has effectively mixed out
the marine layer this morning, allowing for widespread VFR
conditions along the coast. A weak front along with decaying bands
of showers are expected to come ashore around sunrise. Drizzle
and sporadic light showers will continue near shore for Humboldt
and Del Norte counties through mid morning. Increased midlevel
moisture will likely bring highly variable MVFR conditions with
periods of IFR and LIFR ceilings and visibilities through early
afternoon. Calmer conditions are expected late afternoon into the
evening with HREF and model soundings showing a very ragged and
elevated marine layer settling in with generally MVFR to VFR
ceilings. Aside from some gustier NW winds associated with the
frontal passage this morning, generally calm VFR conditions are
expected for interior with little sign of inland marine influence.
/JHW

&&

.MARINE...A weak front will cross the coastal waters by mid
morning, shifting mostly gentle southerly winds to the north.
Gusts along the front could briefly crest 20 knots. Northerly
winds will begin to rapidly increase Thursday morning, becoming
strong breezes by that evening. Near gale force gusts are expected
with localized areas of gale force gusts over 34 knots downwind
of Pt. St. George and Cape Mendocino. Small craft advisories have
been hoisted in the outer waters for Thursday morning to cover
these conditions.

Currently tranquil seas will be disrupted by northwest swells
building in this evening. These swells will briefly peak around 10
feet at 12 seconds before falling through late week. Currently
NWPS shows these heights being too short lived to justify an
earlier small craft advisory. Just as the swell declines, short
period wind waves are expected to climb above 8 feet by Thursday
night. Short period seas above 6 feet will likely creep into the
inner waters by early Friday morning, making a future expansion of
small craft advisories likely. Conditions will gradually calm
into the weekend as warmer temperatures help shunt winds back
offshore. /JHW
