Plaincast
What the forecast actually says — NWS Area Forecast Discussions, decoded into plain English.
Plaincast decodes the National Weather Service's Area Forecast Discussion — the real forecast, written 3 to 4 times a day by the meteorologist on shift — into plain English. The discussion is where a forecaster explains their reasoning: which models disagree, what they are watching, and how confident they are. Below is the current edition for Eureka, with its shorthand expanded. The full experience — an AI plain-English summary beside the annotated original — loads with JavaScript, and every one of the 68 forecast offices has its own edition.
Valleys and coastal areas are expected to see a chilly Saturday morning with near freezing or freezing temperatures.
Light rain is expected Sunday evening through Monday, mainly in Humboldt and Del Norte counties.
Coastal flooding is expected Sunday into next week at high tide, mainly around Humboldt Bay.
Dry weather will continue through the weekend. Breezy conditions will continue to subside today with chilly conditions with near to below freezing temperatures possible early this morning and potentially into early next week. Warm and dry conditions are expected Saturday during the day. There is a chance for rain in Humboldt and Del Norte by Sunday and into early next week.
