.SHORT TERM...
Issued at 1052 PM PST Wed Dec 24 2025
(Tonight through Friday)
Don`t let your guard down, the line of showers and thunderstorms
with strong winds that swept through our area earlier this
(Wednesday) evening was only a precursor to what is expected to
be the most impactful line of storms yet, that is currently about
to enter our outer marine zones about 100mi offshore. Impacts for
the next line are expected to be felt by Midnight PST, with
another round of strong wind, periods of heavy rain with the
potential of low top supercells producing waterspouts that could
move onshore as short-lived tornadoes or straight line winds up
to 80 MPH or higher. The High Wind Warning remains in place until
10 AM PST Thursday (Christmas) morning and may be extended. Our
Flood Watch remains in place until Friday night at 10 PM PST. The
SPC continues to have our entire Pacific Coast line in a Marginal
Risk for Severe Thunderstorms through early Friday morning at 4
AM. That means, the line off showers and thunderstorms progged to
move onshore as early as late afternoon Thursday into the evening
hours may be just as impactful as the one currently on our door
step. That means all hazards mentioned above are in play through
at least tomorrow night, along with the dangerous beach hazards
and gale to near storm force winds over both our coastal and outer
waters. If traveling Christmas day or night, expect extensive
travel delays, along with power outages and urban/nuisance
flooding.

.LONG TERM...
Issued at 1052 PM PST Wed Dec 24 2025
(Friday night through next Wednesday)
*Long term discussion remains unchanged from Wednesday afternoon
update*
Starting in the early morning Friday, winds and shower activity
will gradually decrease as the low pressure system offshore opens
up into a trough and moves into northern Oregon. The associated
surface trough axis will move across the Bay Area Friday evening.
This will finally flip the winds back to northerly, bringing
drier, cooler weather for the weekend. The 1000-500 mb thickness
actually increases this weekend, with the cooling coming mainly from
enhanced radiation during in the cloudless nights. Sunday through
Tuesday look particularly calm, clear and cool as a 500 mb ridge
sets in. The next troughing pattern looks probable on the 1st or
2nd, just in time for King Tides. There`s no strong signal for
major impacts yet, but the CW3E ECCC AR Activity tool shows higher
than normal chances for atmospheric rivers through the first half
of January.

.MARINE...
(Tonight through next Tuesday)
Issued at 1052 PM PST Wed Dec 24 2025
...HAZARDOUS MARINE CONDITIONS CONTINUE INTO EARLY FRIDAY...
Southeast breezes across the coastal waters will re-intensify to
sustained gales from the south by midnight. These dangerous winds
will be accompanied by a chance for thunderstorms and possible
waterspouts through the early morning hours Thursday. Seas will
rebuild to very rough from the choppy wind waves. These hazardous
seas will linger through Friday, reinforced by a moderate westerly
swell. If your vessel is not able to handle these conditions
return to port or seek protected waters as soon as possible.

Issued at 325 PM PST Wed Dec 24 2025
A Beach Hazards Statement has been issued for the coast through
4AM Friday. The main concerns include:blowing and drifting sand
and wind waves up to 20 ft. The drifting sand and increased sea
