Weather Alerts

Small Craft Advisory issued December 11 at 8:17PM PST until December 13 at 3:00AM PST by NWS San Francisco CA

* WHAT...West winds 10 to 20 kt and seas 7 to 12 ft expected.

* WHERE...Coastal Waters from Point Reyes to Pigeon Point
California out to 10 nm.

* WHEN...Until 3 AM PST Friday.

* IMPACTS...Conditions will be hazardous to small craft.

Hydrologic Outlook issued December 11 at 3:43PM PST by NWS San Francisco CA

ESFMTR

* WHAT...A series of storms over the next week will bring periods
of light to moderate rainfall to the region. The first in the
series of storms is a shortwave trough that will move into the
North Bay this evening and slide south across the region tonight
into Thursday. Confidence has increased significantly with this
system and it is expected to bring light rain across the North
Bay and the San Francisco Bay Area. The higher elevations of the
North Bay will likely see around a half an inch of
precipitation while North Bay valleys see around a quarter of an
inch. Bay Area locations south of the Golden Gate, including
the Santa Cruz Mountains, will see a tenth to a quarter of an
inch. Less than a tenth of an inch of rain is forecast across
the Central Coast.

A stronger, more significant rainfall event is anticipated
to impact the region Friday and Saturday. The Weather
Prediction Center Day 3 and Day 4 Excessive Rainfall Outlook
has the North Bay and a portion of the Bay Area in a Marginal
(at least 5%) chance of exceeding flash flood guidance for
this time period. This second system is significantly stronger
low pressure system accompanied by a moderately strong cold
front. The latest model guidance depicts rainfall beginning
Friday evening in the North Bay and progressing southward
across the Bay Area and Central Coast overnight into Saturday.
While we expect these totals to change a bit, current
solutions bring 3 to 5 inches of precipitation to the North
Bay coastal range and 1 to 2.5 inches to the North Bay
Valleys, 0.5 to 1 inch in the Bay Area, and Monterey Bay
region, 1 to 2 inches across the Santa Cruz and Santa Lucia
mountain range, and a trace to 0.25 inch over the interior
portions of Monterey and San Benito counties. Unsettled wet
weather will continue Sunday and into next week.

Area streams and creeks will only see a slight to moderate
rise with the first storm, and while streams are expected to
stay below action/monitor stage with this storm it will
prime the soils for quicker and more noteworthy rises with
subsequent storms. The second stronger and wetter storm will
result in greater and more rapid rises on small creeks,
streams and rivers.

Main stem rivers forecasts continue to stay below flood stage,
however the exceedance probabilities (of rising above flood
stage) have increased over the last 24 hours across Sonoma
County with the Russian River at Guerneville - GUEC1
increasing to 20% (up from 10%). Napa County has seen minor
fluctuations and the probability of exceedance remains low.
SHEC1- Napa near Saint Helena (9%), and APCC1- Napa near Napa
(5%) for Saturday. A few other rivers to keep an eye on that
show higher probability of reaching Action/Monitor or
Minor flood stage according to the latest CNRFC forecast are
MWEC1 - Mark West Creek at Mirabel Heights now has a 77%
probability of reaching Action/Monitor Stage (up from 70%) and
a 57% probability of reaching Minor flood stage (up from 45%)
on Saturday. CTIC1 - Laguna De Santa Rosa at Stony Pt Rd near
Cotati has a 86% probability of reaching Action/Monitor Stage
(up from 64%) and a 55% probability of reaching Minor flood
stage (up from 41%) on Saturday. GEYC1 - Russian River at
Geyserville has a 41% probability of reaching Action/Monitor
Stage (up from 27%) and a 25% probability of reaching Minor
flood stage (up from 14%) on Saturday.

* WHERE...Sonoma and Napa Counties. Latest model guidance
suggests the North Bay will receive the greatest accumulation of
precipitation with the heaviest rainfall expected over the
North Bay coastal range and mountains.

* WHEN...Friday through Sunday. Light to Moderate rainfall
expected over the North Bay Friday and Saturday. The heaviest
rainfall accumulation is expected Friday and Saturday. Unsettled
wet weather will continue Sunday into next week.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...In addition to the moderate rainfall and
localized ponding of water in low-lying or poorly drained areas,
such as freeway offramps. Locally strong and gusty winds may
result in downed trees, and potential power outages.

Confidence is high that we will receive rainfall from this system
however, confidence is moderate with respect to the exact location
and timing of the most intense rainfall. Details regarding this
storm will likely change as the system nears. Therefore, stay
tuned to the latest forecast for the most up to date weather
information.

High Surf Advisory issued December 11 at 1:54PM PST until December 13 at 4:00AM PST by NWS San Francisco CA

* WHAT...Large breaking waves of 18 to 22 feet expected.

* WHERE...Northwest and west facing beaches.

* WHEN...From 1 PM Thursday to 4 AM PST Friday.

* IMPACTS...Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and
localized beach erosion.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Long period northwesterly swell will result
in an increasing risk of sneaker waves, rip currents, and
longshore currents with breaking waves between 18 and 22 feet
expected.
