Area forecast discussion, Dec 6, 4:34 AM PST, 10 hours 39 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Eureka CA 434 AM PST Fri Dec 6 2024 .SYNOPSIS...Dry weather and seasonable temperatures are expected again today. Saturday a weak front is expected to bring some light rain mainly to Humboldt and Del Norte counties with counties farther south and east mainly just seeing clouds and few sprinkles. Dry weather is expected to return Sunday and continue through much of the week with the next chance for rain as early as Thursday. && .DISCUSSION...High pressure is over the area this morning with the very weak front having moved to the east of the area. Some of the interior valleys are seeing fog and low clouds this morning. These areas will likely struggle to warm up even when the clouds dissipate with the continuing inversion. So have lowered some of the high temperatures in these areas closer to yesterday when they stayed in the 50s. The narrow protected valleys are expected to remain the coolest. At the coast skies remain clear at this point, however the satellite shows stratus is rapidly approaching. Coastal clouds will likely come and go today, however the approaching trough will enhance their coverage by mid to late afternoon. Increasing clouds are expected across the area Friday night and saturday as a weak cold front approaches the area. At the Del Norte coast rain is expected to start by mid morning with some light rain spreading south into Humboldt county by the afternoon. Very little rain is expected to make it much farther south or east with Trinity, Mendocino and Lake counties only expected to see a trace to a few hundredths of an inch. Probabilities for rainfall remain similar. For over a tenth for an inch there is a 65 to 85% for areas north of a line from Trinidad to Orleans. For this area this a 20 to 50 percent chance of are 0.3 inches. There is only a 30 chance for over 0.3 inches through Del Norte County Saturday. It now looks like lingering showers will likely remain in Oregon on Sunday. In southern Humboldt there is a 10 to 40 percent chance of a tenth of an inch with the highest probabilities in the King Range. Sunday clearing skies are expected as the front moves out of the area. This may allow fog to form in the valleys with the lingering moisture. Afternoon high temperatures will be cooler than earlier this week and this may be especially true in any valleys that remain foggy. Sunday night chilly temperatures expected across the area with upper 20s in the northern interior areas and low to mid 30s farther south and along the coast. This pattern of chilly nights and sunny afternoons is expected to continue Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday through late in the week the ensembles are showing the potential for a return to a wetter pattern. Currently it looks like a few weak systems will arrive first, possibly just bringing some clouds to the area. Friday night the NBM is showing 40 to 60 percent chance of over a half inch of rain. This will need to continue to be monitored, but at this point it is starting to look like a wetter pattern. MKK && .AVIATION...As of 4AM, most terminals remain in VFR. Some interior valleys continue to have foggy/misty conditions. A stratus deck could be seen moving toward the North Coast very early this morning on satellite. Spotty areas of coastal stratus could affect the coastal terminals of Humboldt and Del Norte counties into mid to late morning, but between the sun rising and high clouds moving in, conditions will most likely remain VFR/MVFR. By this evening ceilings and visibilities could lower with the approach of a another weak cold front. && .MARINE...Slightly elevated winds will continue in the southern waters as high pressure builds into the region, enhancing northerly winds downwind of Cape Mendocino. A series of long period westerly swells will be enhanced by localized wind waves generated from 15 to 20 knot gusts, producing significant wave heights 7 to 8 feet. This pattern will continue through today before an additional frontal boundary approaches the region early Saturday morning. A brief wind shift along the front will quickly turn northerly and increase again in the southern waters. Near gale force gusts are possible Saturday night into Sunday morning. A long period westerly swell 10 to 12 feet will fill into the waters Sunday afternoon, further enhancing seas in the outer waters. Significant wave heights have the potential to approach 14 to 15 feet as advisory level winds continue through early Monday. && .EKA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CA... None.
