.SHORT TERM... (Today and tonight) Issued at 200am PDT Monday Oct 14 2024

Seasonal temperatures and sky cover are expected across the region as a weak short-wave ridge builds inland. Coastal drizzle this morning will be possible as moist conditions prevail giving way to mostly sunny conditions this afternoon, especially inland away from the coast. Temperatures will warm into the upper 70's to low 80's across the interior, the 70's inland away from the coast/bays, and mid to upper 60's to low 70's near the coast.

Tonight, low temperatures are forecast to range from the upper 40's to low 50's for the interior and low-to-mid 50's elsewhere. Once again, coastal and favored upslope spots are likely to experience drizzle.

Long Term
(Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 200am PDT Monday Oct 14 2024

Heading into Tuesday, conditions will remain near seasonal averages. A stronger upper level low will push inland over the Pacific Northwest brining with it a weak frontal boundary down into our region. This will bring light precipitation to the North Bay with little to no precipitation south of the Golden Gate on Wednesday. However, probabilities remain low for "wetting rain" across even the North Bay which will have negligible effect on increasing fuel moisture across the region. This is a large shift from previous days when most of the region was expecting at least some rainfall.

From previous forecaster: "The decrease in accumulating precipitation also brings us to our second concern: elevated fire weather concerns across the Bay Area and Central Coast beginning late Thursday through the weekend. Both the European and GFS (Global Forecast System) models now show the upper level low continuing to strengthen and deepen as it moves eastward through California/Nevada before eventually becoming a cut-off low over the four corners region. Confidence is increasing that a classic fire weather pattern, an "inside slider", will develop and take place next weekend bringing widespread, gusty offshore winds across the Bay Area and Central Coast. At 850 mb late Thursday/early Friday, the GFS and Euro models are both showing gusts between at least 40 to 45 mph with the GFS model showing some potential for gusts close to 50 mph to develop. What does this translate to at the surface? At the surface gusts will generally be strongest across elevated terrain and mountain gaps/passes where peak gusts look to be between 35-40 mph currently. There is potential for stronger gusts to develop in the gaps and passes of the East Bay Hills where we may see 40+ mph gusts during this event. Forecasted sustained winds and wind gusts will continue to be refined as we continue to move closer to the Thursday/Friday timeframe. We will continue to monitor and provide updates on these fire weather concerns as they evolve over the course of this week. Residents of the Bay Area and the Central Coast should take precautions to avoid all activities that may result in wildfire spread/development next weekend. Remember: "One less spark, One less wildfire."

Marine
(Today through Saturday) Issued at 1050am PDT Monday Oct 14 2024

Wave heigheights will continue to build throughout the day today with significant wave heigheights reaching up to 10 feet over the outer waters. Long period northwesterly swell of 13-17 seconds will result in elevated surf conditions through Wednesday. Winds will be moderate to fresh out of the northwest through the middle part of the week. Towards Thursday, a low pressure system will bring widespread near-gale to gale force gusts.

Beaches
Issued at 850pm PDT Sunday Oct 13 2024

Long period northwesterly swell of 13-17 seconds with wave heigheights approaching 10 feet will result in a moderate risk of sneaker waves across all Pacific Coast beaches through at least Wednesday. Large waves can sweep across the beach without warning, pulling people into the sea from rocks, jetties, and beaches. Beachgoers should always remember to observe the ocean for 20 minutes before relaxing near the water, keep your pets on a leash and away from the water, and never turn your back on the ocean.
