AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Eureka CA
1223 AM PDT Fri Aug 21 2026

.KEY MESSAGES...
* Smoke remains stuck around the Hoopa Valley with weak mixing
  keeping smoke stuck in terrain into the weekend.

* Very slight chance for isolated dry storms in the interior during
  the day Friday.

* A deep marine layer and cooler temperatures aloft will combine
  to bring near to slightly below normal temperatures Friday and
  Saturday.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...A deep marine layer and cooler temperatures aloft
will combine to bring near to slightly below normal temperatures
Friday and Saturday. The coast may finally see more clearing over
the weekend. Some warming is expected Sunday and Monday before
another trough brings cooler temperatures next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...An upper level low is approaching the coast and then
moves north along the coast. This is pulling sub-tropical
moisture north over the area. This is showing up in the sounding
at Oakland with a PWAT of 1.08 inches. No CAPE was recorded with
this sounding. The upstream satellite imagery doesn't look
convective and doesn't have lightning reported with it. So there
is still the potential for some lightning, but it is not looking
very likely. Temperatures are expected to diminish this afternoon
as the marine layer continues to deepen and get pushed further
inland. Many of the inland areas are expected only warm to the
upper 80s or around 90. The marine layer looks like it will keep
the marine clouds in place the immediate coast. With the deeper
marine layer this should keep ceilings a bit higher and limited
fog in the lower elevations.

Saturday the upper level low starts to move out of the area with
high pressure filling in behind it. This will bring cooler
temperatures aloft which will keep the inland areas mainly in the
80s with 70s closer to the coast. The may finally see some better
clear and breezy afternoons winds. The cooler temperatures aloft
will weaken the marine inversion. Saturday night into Sunday
morning there is some offshore flow and this may help clear skies
out more quickly during the day. It doesn't look strong enough to
keep skies clear overnight.

Monday through the middle of the week a trough starts to approach
the area bringing a cooler temperatures and deeper marine layer
again. This is come more from the west and thunderstorms look
unlikely, but it will be something to watch as it gets closer. MKK

&&

.AVIATION (06Z TAFS)...The approaching upper level low is
deepening the marine layer. This is keeping CIGS higher at the
coastal airports. Farther south the marine layer has deepened in
Mendocino as well and has the potential to make it into Ukiah.
However the winds are out of the north currently in Ukiah. There
are southerly winds in Sonoma county so it looks like it will be
a battle between the winds. This will likely keep stratus out of
Ukiah, but possibly up into Hopland. This afternoon the marine
clouds are expected to lift some and CIGs are expected to become
MVFR by the afternoon. Tonight the probability of CIGS dropping
below 1,000 feet again is 50 to 70 percent while below 2,000 feet
has a more than 90 percent probability so CIGS tonight may remain
MVFR. MKK

&&

.MARINE...The winds and seas continue to diminish and are expected
remain fairly light through much of the day. The winds are
expected to be southerly in most areas, but only around 4 to 8 kt.
Low clouds are expected, but generally fog is not expected.
Currently there is a westerly swell around 3 feet at 11 seconds
and the wind driven waves have diminished along with the winds.

Saturday northerly winds are expected to start increasing again
in the southern waters to around 15 to 20 kt, strongest just
south of Cape Mendocino. Saturday night into Sunday winds are
expected to continue to increase, peaking around 15 to 25 kt in
the afternoon. The northerly winds are expected to start to
diminish once again Monday and Tuesday. There is the potential
for them to start increasing once again on Wednesday. MKK

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...Hot and dry weather conditions to ease Friday,
especially with the help of upper level clouds. Highs will pull
back closer to the 90s with RH over 20 percent.

There is still a small chance for lighting through the day Friday,
but none of the models are predicting lighting. One or two models
still show a little instability and there is still a jet streak
that could help with the dynamics. But overall it still looks
unlikely and if anything forms it would like only be a strike or
two. MKK

&&

.EKA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
CA...
None.
NORTHWEST CALIFORNIA COASTAL WATERS...
None.
