...New AVIATION, MARINE...

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 252 AM PDT Thu Jun 12 2025

The daily pattern of the return of marine layer clouds overnight
through the morning hours, some coastal drizzle, and breezy
afternoon onshore winds continues. Temperatures remain in the
upper 50s and into the 60s at the coast, the 70 to 80s for areas
more inland, and into the 90s for the far interior. Areas away
from the marine layer continue to experience dry conditions,
leading to some fire concerns as grasses and smaller plants
continue to cure.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 252 AM PDT Thu Jun 12 2025

For the 3rd night in a row there is a reduction in cloud cover
across much of the area. The marine layer is around 2000ft and there
is still a fair push of moisture inland from it, but the increased
expansion of the marine layer has decreased the concentration of the
moisture and made it slightly harder for cloud cover to form
overland. This is coupled with the fact that low cloud transport
over the marine environment is moving mostly north to south, and not
much is turning towards the coast itself, also reducing our cloud
cover.

Pockets of fog and some areas of drizzle will still be possible
along the San Mateo Coast and around the Monterey-Carmel-Pacific
Grove area with slight chances around the SF Bay into the early
morning.

The reduced cloud cover will result in the warming trend for the
slightly more inland areas to continue today, while the cloudier
immediate coast stays cool and the far interior stays roughly the
same(warm). Breezy to gusty winds are expected in the afternoon and
into the evening, especially right along the dividing line between
the cloudier to clearer environments.

Cloud cover builds earlier this evening than Thursday night, with a
better feed of cloud cover building in from the ocean than what
we`re seeing this morning.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 252 AM PDT Thu Jun 12 2025

I`m struggling to find much remarkable about the next few days as
the pattern remains fairly solid:

-Cloudy on the coast
-Breezy and some clearing for the afternoons
-Warm days for the cloudless
-Cool days for the cloudy

The only true variations in temperatures and wind are going to be
for the areas that are going to be on the edges of the cloud cover.
So, we`re having fun with microclimates and how short drives can
mean the difference between putting the heater on or the
air conditioning in the car!

The pattern does look to change into the next work week! Models have
been hinting at a trough pattern arriving sometime over the weekend
for some time, but the passage has been delayed more and more with
each update. This has been from a combo of momentum changes and a
some different angling on the jet stream. For now, it looks like the
trough will arrive on Monday, but there is still some potential for
an even more delayed arrival. The tough itself will increase onshore
flow and lead to widespread cooling, but only up to 5 degrees or so
for daily highs, and even less so for overnight temps.

Model agreement has improved on the post-trough passage
environment, offering some reductions in onshore flow, but not so
much going into ridging nor offshore flow. It will offer some slight
warming, but as of the current forecast, nothing drastic.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1032 AM PDT Thu Jun 12 2025

MVFR conditions prevail at some terminals this morning but are
quickly returning to VFR as low clouds clear and retreat to the
coast. Winds increase this afternoon with gusts up to 30 kt at SFO
before easing late Thursday night and into Friday morning. IFR/MVFR
conditions forecast to return late this evening for the Monterey Bay
terminals and early Friday morning for the Bay Area terminals,
generally moderate confidence.  Low level winds shear continues to
be in the TAFs for the North Bay tonight/Friday morning as winds at
the surface go light and northwest winds up to 30 kt will prevail
aloft.

Vicinity of SFO...VFR conditions expected this afternoon with an
increase in onshore winds with gusts up to 30kt. Winds will ease
slightly overnight and into Friday morning, yet generally remain
west-northwesterly. Moderate confidence for low clouds to return
early Friday morning across the Bay Area terminals (generally MVFR
but may drop to IFR). MVFR ceilings will return by late Friday
morning or early afternoon with an increase of onshore flow once
again.

SFO Bridge Approach...Similar to SFO.

Monterey Bay Terminals...VFR conditions expected this afternoon with
an increase in onshore winds. Winds ease late this evening with
moderate to high confidence of IFR/MVFR ceilings returning.

&&

.MARINE...
(Today through Tuesday)
Issued at 1032 AM PDT Thu Jun 12 2025

Fresh to strong northwesterly breezes, near gale force gusts, and
moderate to rough seas will prevail through Monday. Expect gale
force gusts to develop near the coastal jet regions of Point Reyes
and Point Sur during the afternoon and evening hours of today and
again Friday.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 252 AM PDT Wed Jun 12 2025

Areas not being reached by the marine layer continue to see dry
conditions. Higher elevations, particularly in the Santa Lucias
and in the Gabilan range, continue to see poor humidity retentions
and recoveries. In fact, some locations are hitting single digit
and lower teens for RH values. A few locations in the interior
North Bay are seeing breezy north to northeast winds and these
winds look to last into the morning which will increase drying in
these areas. Winds will remain breezy each afternoon/evening
through the Delta, and any inland gap or pass. The combination of
dry fine fuels (grasses), lower RH, breezy winds with gusts in the
20-40 mph will elevate fire weather concerns.

&&
