Synopsis for the central california coast and bays including the Monterey bay..Greater farallones...and cordell bank national marine sanctuaries... Locally gusty southerly winds will continue as a cold front inches closer to the coast early tonight. The cold front will then move through the coastal waters tonight and early Saturday resulting in gusty winds and periods of rain. A longer period moderate northwest swell will also continue to result in hazardous conditions for small craft through Saturday before subsiding on Sunday. Another low pressure system approaching from the northwest will bring more rain and larger swell early to mid next week.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Eureka CA 243 PM PST Fri Mar 5 2021
SYNOPSIS. A period of moderate to locally heavy rainfall will occur across the lowlands this evening, while accumulating snowfall takes place across interior ridges and mountains. Light scattered shower activity is then expected Saturday and Sunday before a more impactful storm system enters the region Monday and Tuesday.
DISCUSSION. A frontal band of precipitation was nearly stationary over the Redwood Coast this afternoon, leaving Mendocino, Trinity, and Lake Counties dry thus far. Generally steady precipitation rates in Humboldt and Del Norte Counties have yielded rainfall totals from a quarter to one half inch, with another inch or so of rain expected through late evening. Otherwise, an upper-level shortwave trough located offshore from NRN CA is forecast to progress eastward this evening. As that happens, the frontal rainband will begin to progress inland. Model guidance indicates frontogenesis in the 925-700 mb layer will be strong over Del Norte, Humboldt, and Mendocino Counties between 4 and 10 PM. Precipitation rates will be enhanced, and that will aid in dynamically lowering freezing levels to around 2000 feet. Accumulating snowfall from 2 to 6 inches is expected to occur as a result, and travel may be impacted along portions of highway 199, 299, 36, and 3 later this evening. In addition, an inch or two of snow can't be ruled out along the highway 101 corridor in the vicinity of Laytonville. Reference the latest winter weather advisory for more information.
Precipitation is generally expected to clear the region by Saturday morning. Another front will then weaken as it reaches NWRN CA Saturday night into Sunday morning. Thereafter, a large upper-level low is forecast to deepen over the NERN PAC Sunday night into Monday. An expansive area of cold midlevel temperatures (-30 to -35 C at 500 mb) will be associated with the trough. The cold airmass will aid in sufficient instability for isolated thunderstorms in the vicinity of the EKA coast Monday afternoon through Tuesday. In addition, small hail will be possible with stronger showers and storms. Hail may accumulate on roadways and impact travel. Freezing levels will also lower, which would favor periods of mountain snow occurring with bands of showers embedded with upper impulses rotating around the upper low.
Garner
AVIATION. A potent cold front approached the Del Norte coastline after daybreak; then slowly started progressing east- southeastward. Flight hazards continued as CIG/VIS deteriorated mainly due to moderate to heavy rain intensities. By mid- afternoon, surface winds had generally tapered over much of the Coast except along portions of the Del Norte coast and along the immediate frontal boundary. LLWS concerns significantly diminished in the wake of the front. Rain will be much slower to push into the southern half of the area (Mendocino & Lake Counties). Rain and MVFR conditions not expected to reach UKI before 00z (4PM). Across the region, precipitation is expected to taper by late night through early Saturday morning. VFR conditions should then return to the terminals around sunrise except for some areas of Mendocino. /TA
MARINE. Winds continue to rapidly diminish across the area this afternoon. Seas will be slower to subside, but only a Small Craft Advisory will remain after 3 PM today. A brief increase in southerlies is expected Saturday evening ahead of a weak front, and the advisory will continue there through midnight Saturday night. Elsewhere, advisories will end at 3 PM Saturday. The break in advisory-level conditions will be short-lived, as a fresh WNW swell is expected to arrive late Sunday with 18 ft heights and 17-18 second periods. Surf heights may briefly reach advisory- level criteria Sunday night, but this appears to be a marginal event, so will defer the decision to oncoming shifts. The sea state is then forecast to gradually improve by the middle of the coming week. /SEC
