| 229 PM PDT Sat Oct 23 2021 Synopsis for the Central California Coast and Bays Including the Monterey Bay, Greater Farallones and Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuaries - PZZ500 A strong storm system will transit southward through the waters from late tonight through tomorrow night. Winds will back towards the south, increase, and become gusty ahead of and with the front. Peak gusts will push into upper gale force range and could occasionally gusty into lower storm force range, ie 40 to 50 kts. These winds will generate very steep fresh southerly swell that is hazardous for smaller craft vessels. In addition, this storm system will generate a large WNW swell train that will arrive shortly after the storm passes from Sunday night into early Tuesday. Swell of 16 to 24 feet at 16 to 18 seconds will then wash ashore, peaking Monday, and bring hazardous conditions in the surf zone and near harbor entrances with breaking waves of 20 to 30 feet. |
| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Francisco Bay Area 239pm PDT Sat Oct 23 2021 Synopsis Light rain will continue.nues over the North Bay and along the coastal ranges this afternoon ahead of the upcoming atmospheric river. Rainfall will increase in coverage Sunday and be accompanied by gusty winds before shifting southward across the entire region Sunday night through early Monday morning. A slight chance of North Bay light rain Tuesday otherwise warming and drying trend as high pressure rebuilds. As of 02:37pm PDT Saturday...Saturday afternoon continues the calm before the storm. A few light showers have been passing through the North Bay but the remaining rain amounts from this aren't adding up to much compared to Sunday's forecasted amounts. Expect conditions to remain calm until the late night, when the front begins to interact with the North Bay. After considering the updated model and ensemble outputs as well as the inclusion of short-term, higher resolution models, the timing of the AR event has been shifted slightly later. The afternoon forecast update consisted mostly of tweaks in timing and some fine-tuning in rainfall amounts as well as adjustments in peak winds, but the bulk of the forecast remains on track. Winds will quickly increase into the night for Sonoma Co and these stronger winds will continue.nue south ahead of the front. Expect the strongest winds ahead of the band of rain some strong gusts lingering well into the rain band itself. Max wind gust will range from 60 to 70 mph at the highest peaks, 40 to 50 mph around the Bay Area, and 35 to 45 mph around Monterey Bay and the Central Coast. The heaviest rains will be focused over higher elevations along the coast as well as higher elevations in western Sonoma Co. The official forecast timing and rain amounts will roughly go as follows: North Bay: Early Sunday morning through Sunday evening Highest peaks 8-11" Foothills 6-8 Valleys 4-6" East Bay and SF Peninsula: Late Sunday morning through Sunday night Higher elevations: 4-6" Lower elevations: 2-4" South Bay and the Santa Cruz Mtns: Mid Sunday afternoon though late Sunday night. Highest Peaks 5-7" Foothills and Santa Cruz coast 2-4" Santa Clara Valley 1-2.50" Monterey and San Benito Counties: Sunday evening through early Monday morning Highest Peaks along the Big Sur Coast 4-6" Coastal Monterey Co 2-4" Interior Monterey and San Benito counties 1-2.50" These times and totals are subject to change but the forecast confidence is increasing as models update. Ahead of the event, we recommend taking today as a day of preparation. Today is a perfect day to make sure you are ready for the strong winds, moderate to heavy rain, and the possibility of power outages. Charge your phone and battery back ups, tie down outdoor furniture and trash cans, check your emergency kit supplies, know where and how to get updates from your local emergency management, and clear storm drains and gutters. Marine as of 02:37pm PDT Saturday...A strong storm system will transit southward through the waters from late tonight through tomorrow night. Winds will back towards the south, increase, and become gusty ahead of and with the front. Peak gusts will push into upper gale force range and could occasionally gusty into lower storm force range, ie 40 to 50 kts. These winds will generate very steep fresh southerly swell that is hazardous for smaller craft vessels. In addition, this storm system will generate a large WNW swell train that will arrive shortly after the storm passes from Sunday night into early Tuesday. Swell of 16 to 24 feet at 16 to 18 seconds will then wash ashore, peaking Monday, and bring hazardous conditions in the surf zone and near harbor entrances with breaking waves of 20 to 30 feet. Beaches as of 12:30pm PDT Saturday...A strong, early season storm system arrives tomorrow and will result in significantly increased wave energy from late Sunday into early Tuesday as it arrives and after it passes. This wave energy will transition through the coastal waters from late Sunday into Tuesday, and peak on Monday. Swell of 16 to 24 feet at 16 to 18 seconds is forecast to arrive with the swell train as it peaks on Monday and result in a number of coastal hazards. These hazards include large breaking waves of 20 to 30 feet (higher at favored break points), increased risk of strong longshore and rip currents, increased risk of coastal erosion and minor coastal flooding, and enhanced coastal run up concerns due to the summer beach profiles in place. Due to the early arrival of these large waves, many beaches are still transitioning from their summer beach profiles and lack the features and steepness to resist larger wave run up on coasts. This means that more of this wave energy will have a chance to move onto the beach and overtake individuals, potentially injuring them, or pulling them into the cold ocean. Each year, people die at the coast due to these or similar ocean conditions. A high surf warning for the entire coast has been issued for this threat and is in effect from 11PM Sunday to 11AM Tuesday, with the highest risks once again at west to northwest facing beaches.
