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 Jun 29, 3:00 PM PDT, 11 hours 15 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 29, 3:00 PM PDT, 11 hours 15 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
300 PM PDT Sat Jun 29 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Dry and seasonable conditions will continue through
weekend along with gusty northwest wind in the afternoon. A strong
heatwave will build early through at least mid week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Seasonable weather will continue through the weekend
with interior highs around 90. The coastal pressure gradient will
peak this afternoon and Sunday afternoon as an upper trough moves
east and high pressure quickly builds on its heels. This will
bring gusty northwest wind this afternoon gusting between 20 and
30 mph on exposed ridges and in channeled terrain.

There is high confidence that very strong high pressure will build
early this week, generating significantly warmer than normal
temperatures by Tuesday. By Wednesday, NBM shows a 90 to 100% chance
of highs in excess of 100 throughout inland valleys of Lake,
Mendocino, and Trinity Counties. Focused on the Russian River
Valley, there is even a 60 to 80% chance of highs above 110 just in
time for the 4th of July. Such values will rival the daily high
record for Ukiah. Overnight lows will bring little relief,
especially along midslope areas and ridges of Mendocino and Lake
counties where lows are likely to stay above 70.

Such high temperatures are expected to bring Major to isolated
Extreme HeatRisk around Clear Lake and in the Russian River Valley.
where and excessive heat watch has been issued. Widespread Moderate
HeatRisk is expected throughout the rest of the interior. Despite
similar high temperatures, much cooler overnight lows in the 50s for
Trinity and northern Mendocino County will help lower the overall
HeatRisk. Though there are flagged areas of Major or even Extreme
HeatRisk beyond Lake and southern Mendocino, the vast majority of
the populated areas show only Moderate HeatRisk. These areas will
need to be watched closely in the coming days as the need for
further heat products may increase.

Above average temperatures are most likely to persist late into the
week. That said, the presence of a surface low pressure off the
coast late in the week may disrupt the heat depending on how
efficiently it can break up larger scale high pressure and pull in
marine influence. It is possible its impact will be negligible, with
about 50% of model ensemble members showing Major to Extreme
HeatRisk continuing even late into the week. /JHW

.AVIATION...Pics from the sky shows high altitude cirrus sweeping
across our area today ahead of a weak frontal passage. As of right
now, VFR conditions are stable at all terminals. This is forecasted
to change this afternoon/evening as a marine stratus push should
lower ceiling heights between 1000-500ft (probabilities at these
heights at 90% & 50% respectively). Model guidance even suggests
possible ceiling heights of only a couple hundred feet AGL late
tonight into early tomorrow morning for coastal terminals. Fog
coverage and lowered visibilities will possibly be allowing LIFR
conditions to reform. AT KUKI, when the winds eventually pick up,
they are forecasted to stay from the north with no low cloud
coverage expected. Thus, KUKI should remain in VFR conditions for
the next 24 hours.

&&

.MARINE...Northerly winds will continue to ease across the
waters today into tomorrow, especially north of Cape Mendocino as a
weak frontal system moves through. Strong breezes will continue
across the southern waters today, with locally near-gale to gale
force gusts downwind of Cape Mendocino. NDBC buoys observations are
reporting WNW seas around 4-6 feet @ 5-7 seconds. A WNW swell should
enter our waters tonight bringing an additional wave group of 5ft @
12s to the sea state. Tomorrow morning will show Steep seas around 7-
9 feet will remain across the southern water zones over the weekend.

Monday, winds are forecast to strengthen again as a high pressure
offshore begin to builds in quickly in the wake of the trough. A
thermal trough is then expected to develop near the coast Monday
night/early Tuesday and favor moderate to strong pressure gradient.
Widespread strong to near gale force winds and very steep, hazardous
seas (12-16 ft @ 10 s) are forecasted for early to mid next week.
Confidence is high for high for gale force gusts up to 40 kt over
the outer waters, with locally gales downwind of Cape Mendocino.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...Seasonable warm and dry conditions will persist
through the weekend. A tightening pressure gradient will continue to
enhance northwest winds today with gusts of 20 to 30 mph most likely
on exposed ridges and in channeled terrain. This is especially true
in southern Mendocino and Lake Counties. Onshore flow will slightly
increase humidity, but interior valleys will still be dry with
minimum RH down to 20%. In combination, wind and RH will create
locally critical fire weather conditions in the afternoon,
especially in fine fuels below 2000 feet in elevation. Thankfully,
such conditions will be short lived during the late afternoon and
evening. /JHW
