AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Eureka CA 238 PM PDT Tue Apr 13 2021
SYNOPSIS. Strong breezy winds continue through tonight but will ease by tomorrow afternoon. Frost advisories are in place for portions of Humboldt and Mendocino as temperatures overnight reduce with moisture lingering at low points.
DISCUSSION. As an upper level low continues to develop over the Great Basin, increases in Northerlies winds with low RH values are a concern. Strong breezy winds continue tonight with low RH values which could increase fire danger. Tonight there is the potential for frost in the interior valleys and so a frost advisory has been issued for portions of Humboldt and Mendocino. Areas of Trinity county may also get frost, especially near Weaverville and Douglas city where growing season has yet to commence.
Wednesday through Thursday the upper level low remains over the great basin but starts to weaken. This will allow the winds to diminish, but temperatures will remain mainly in the 60s to the low 70s, warmest in the inland valleys. Wednesday night with lighter winds frost looks more likely and additional advisories may be needed. The coast may see a return of stratus which would prevent frost, but confidence is low on this and have not added it to the forecast yet. Thursday inland temperatures may warm a few degrees, but with the low nearby they are not expected to warm much.
Friday and into the weekend the ensembles are in good agreement on a strong ridge building over the west. Most inland valleys will see temperatures in the upper 70s Friday. Temperatures will continue to climb into the weekend withs highs around 80 on Saturday and mid 80s possible on Sunday. The ensembles are in good agreement on the ridge of high pressure and the warm temperatures and confidence is higher than normal on this. There is still some uncertainty in the local effects and in this case that is mainly the cloud cover at the coast. This could keep temperatures cooler than currently forecast.
Early next week the ensembles are showing the ridge starting to break down. The challenge will be how quickly this occurs and the ensembles are showing low confidence in the timing of it breaking down. Some of the ensemble clusters keep the ridge on Tuesday and others break it down more quickly. One of the clusters even brings some rain on Tuesday. /MKK /EYS
AVIATION. Some lingering overnight patchy fog and stratus quickly dissipated this morning as widespread VFR conditions took over. Gusty northerly surface winds will be maintained overnight along the coast. Winds at near 2000 ft AGL will turn northeasterly up to 30 kts overnight, warranting the addition of LLWS for the TAFs. The dry offshore flow should finally quell stratus formation tonight. The periphery of an upper-low looks to create some harmless elevated inland afternoon cumulus/mid-level cloud formation tomorrow, including at KUKI. Northerly winds will begin a weakening trend tomorrow.
MARINE. The tight coastal pressure gradient responsible for the strong northerlies from the combination of high pressure offshore and persistent deep troughing over the Great Basin will become enervated as both systems slowly breakdown. Gale Warnings remain in effect through late tonight for the outer waters. The strongest winds will generally remain farther offshore, but steep wind generated seas will continue to propagate into the nearshore waters and create hazardous conditions through tonight. A Hazardous Seas Warning therefore remains in effect through late tonight for the inner zones. Small Craft advisory conditions will likely remain this week and into Thursday as the gradient slowly unwinds. Seas will continue to be primarily locally generated for this week, responding to fluctuations in nearshore northerly winds. A clipping shortwave may quickly invigorate the winds over northern portions of the Northern Outer waters beginning tomorrow evening before quickly backing off by the early Thursday morning.
