AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
500 PM PST Wed Jan 4 2023

.SYNOPSIS...A very strong 955 mb Pacific cyclone is nearing closer
to the coast today. The storm is creating heavy rain and flooding,
strong to damaging winds, very large surf and heavy high elevation
snow.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Strong to damaging winds are underway over the region.
There are many reports coming in of downed trees and power lines,
and this is creating hazardous conditions and power outages. There
have also been reports of structural damage to buildings due to
winds and tree falls. Winds have gusted over 60mph to the coast,
and higher elevations have been gusting to 80 mph, and in one case
up 94 mph on Upper Bear River Road. Winds are temporarily easing
slightly, but will quickly ramp back up overnight as the strong
cyclone nears the coast. Winds will finally weaken into Thursday.
Rainfall totals with the associated atmospheric river have been
on the lower side thus far, and the forecast river crests have
backed down somewhat. The flood threat remains with such
saturated grounds and more of a convective transition occurring.
Flood stage is still expected to just be reached tonight on the
Russian River.- Hopland. See the hydrology section below.

Instability will increase this evening through Thursday, with up
to 500 J/kg of CAPE. Well defined areas of PVA will arrive
overnight, and this will enhance thunderstorm activity, especially
along and south of Cape Mendocino. Some thunderstorms will be on
the stronger side in the described area, especially Thursday
afternoon and evening when an apparent waterspout threat will
develop south of Cape Mendocino. Snow levels are rising above
60000 feet, but will come back down to as low as 3500 feet
Thursday night. Expect more disruptive snowfall at Scott Mountain
Pass.

The rain and winds will further ease Thursday night and into
Friday. Rain and southerly winds will begin increasing Friday
night through Saturday night from a weaker cyclone forming
downstream of highly invigorated jet stream winds over the
Pacific. The cyclone will move into a region once again of broad
upper diffluence fanning out over the West Coast, and will tap
into another atmospheric river. The additional rainfall expected
over the saturated ground with existing elevated river levels will
bring more of a flooding threat. This next storm will not be
nearly as windy as the current storm, with ridgetop winds gusting
from 30 to 40 mph. Rainfall totals through the weekend are
currently forecast at 2-3 inches for the northern half of the area
and 3-5 inches south, with up to 6 inches in the higher
elevations. This pattern looks to hold beyond that in the extended
forecast, with more potential rain events and flooding concerns
continuing. /JJW

&&

.AVIATION...An atmospheric river will impact NWRN CA through
tonight. Periods of heavy rain, south-southeast winds occasionally
gusting from 30-60 kt, and extreme low-level wind shear will impact
all TAF sites through early to mid Thursday morning. In addition, a
roughly 10 percent probability of thunderstorms will exist at
KUKI late this evening into the night. After Thursday morning,
showers will persist across the region, but rainfall rates and
low-level winds are forecast to weaken significantly.

&&

.MARINE...ASCAT confirmed storm force southerly winds continue
across all zones this afternoon then weaken to Gale Force this
evening after a frontal boundary pushes onshore. Southerlies are
expected to pulse again to storm force Thursday morning across the
outers and northern inners as the associated strong low tracks
northward offshore. Winds significantly weaken Thursday afternoon,
although another round of gales are possible Friday as another front
approaches. Periods of strong southerly winds are expected to
continue for the foreseeable future as fronts continually move
onshore.

Large, steep seas have developed this afternoon in response to these
southerly winds. Locally generated southerly seas are expected to
peak around 25 ft early Thursday, then filter out through the day.
Meanwhile, a large W swell fills in early Thursday morning, with
wave heights reaching 25 to 30 ft during the day Thurs. This will
lead to very large and chaotic seas through the day Thurs. The W
swell is expected to quickly decay Friday, then be reinforced by a
few W swells through the weekend, holding around 10 ft. Southerly
seas will pulse once again Friday with the next front as well,
particularly in the northern waters.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...Soils remain mostly saturated, and conditions are
primed for more flooding. Heavy precipitation through Thursday
will continue the threat of flooding, especially in Mendocino
County. An areal Flood Watch is out for the most of the area
except for rain shadowed areas north. A flood warning remains for
the Russian River - Hopland, but current guidance only briefly
takes it above the flood stage of 15 feet late tonight. The
warning has been canceled on the Navarro due to a lower expected
crest. The Eel River at Fernbridge and Mad River - Arcata will
reach Monitor stage through Friday.

Flash Flood Watches remain for the far S and SW portions of the
Six Rivers Lightning Complex burn scar, the Southern August
Complex burn scar and the Coffee Creek portion of the River
Complex burn scar. A combination of terrain enhanced rainfall
rates from the strong southerly winds, and some coastal convective
activity will continue the threat for an opportunity for debris
flow in these mostly remote, isolated areas. The Eel, Russian and Navarro
rivers are forecast to crest into Flood Stage through the weekend
with another atmospheric river. /JJW

&&

.BEACH HAZARDS...A high surf warning continues for all coastal
areas starting early Thursday morning and lasting through early
Friday morning. The largest breakers are forecast to build to around
30 feet by midday on Thursday. These breaking waves will lead to
increased wave run-up on beaches with waves topping and washing over
large rocks and jetties. These large breakers can be erratic and
unpredictable, and will be capable of lifting up large logs and
sweeping people into frigid and turbulent ocean waters. Even
experienced and strong swimmers will succumb to cold water in a
matter of minutes. People getting swept into the ocean and drowning
is one our leading causes of weather related deaths. Stay away from
the beaches on Thursday. Mariners traversing the bar and harbor
entrances will need to stay in port until the threat subsides on.

Additionally, a coastal flood warning has been issued for high tides
Thursday morning. The strong low offshore has brought a local 1.0 to
1.5 ft storm surge to portions of the coast today, and this is
expected to continue through the high tide Thursday. This high tide,
along with the large surf, are expected to inundate low-lying
coastal areas, particularly those susceptible to wave action like
Highway 101 near South Beach in Del Norte and New Navy Base Rd on
the north spit of Humboldt Bay. Portions of the Mendocino coastline
will likely see coastal flooding as well with this combination of
large surf and high tides.
