692 FXUS66 KMTR 011206 AFDMTR Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Francisco CA 406 AM PST Sun Feb 1 2026 ...New AVIATION, MARINE... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 158 AM PST Sun Feb 1 2026 - Above normal temperatures and dry conditions through the week - Minor coastal flooding today during high astronomical tide for bayshore locations along the San Francisco Bay, San Pablo Bay, and Monterey Bay - Hazardous beach conditions through Monday at Pacific Coast beaches && .SHORT TERM... Issued at 158 AM PST Sun Feb 1 2026 (Today and tonight) Fog has been observed overnight in the North Bay and East Bay Interior Valleys. High clouds streaming in from a dying cold front are adding complexity to the fog forecast both in terms of viewing it from space via satellite as well as seemingly not letting it get widespread like initially thought. Still, if you are driving this morning, slow down, use your low-beam headlights, and leave plenty of distance ahead of you. The aforementioned cold front will be the main feature today. Rain can be seen to the north on our neighbor Eureka`s radar, but this is not expected to hold together down here. Instead, what we can expect is a pause in the warming trend, a return of onshore flow, and an extra colorful sunrise/sunset from the cloud shield. One more round of minor coastal flooding is expected during high astronomical tide this morning for bayshore locations along the San Francisco Bay, San Pablo Bay, and Monterey Bay. Hazardous beach conditions continue at Pacific Coast beaches, read more in the BEACHES section. && .LONG TERM... Issued at 158 AM PST Sun Feb 1 2026 (Monday through Saturday) A warming trend commences Monday and peaks Wednesday as longwave upper-level ridging builds into place and sets up its axis over the region. Sensible weather wise, this will result in temperatures of 10 degrees above normal. Global ensemble clusters are in agreement that the aforementioned ridge will begin to get shoved east on Thursday by upper-level shortwave troughing that will skirt the region Friday into Saturday. This will relatively cool temperatures with no rain in the official forecast. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 345 AM PST Sun Feb 1 2026 Patchy fog will continue in the North and East Bay valleys this morning, improving by early afternoon. Moderate confidence in IFR/MVFR stratus developing with locally reduced visibilities this morning around San Francisco Bay. Light winds this morning, becoming generally onshore 5-10 kts this afternoon. Areas of stratus and fog may redevelop late tonight as skies aloft become mostly clear. Vicinity of SFO...Moderate confidence in tempo IFR ceilings this morning. Winds becoming northwest around 10 kts this afternoon. Low confidence in stratus returning late tonight into Monday morning. SFO Bridge Approach...Similar to SFO. Monterey Bay Terminals...VFR expected today. Light SE winds this morning, becoming onshore 5-10 kts this afternoon. Low potential for stratus/fog to develop late tonight/Monday morning with a light offshore breeze expected. && .MARINE... (Today through Friday) Issued at 345 AM PST Sun Feb 1 2026 Hazardous marine conditions return late this morning and persist through Monday, with seas building to become rough across the outer waters and northerly breezes increasing to become fresh to strong. Conditions improve Tuesday with moderate seas and a gentle northerly breeze prevailing through Thursday. && .BEACHES... Issued at 333 AM PST Fri Jan 30 2026 Hazardous beach conditions will continue through Monday at all Pacific Coast beaches. Long period westerly swell will bring an increased risk for sneaker waves and strong rip currents with breaking waves of 14 to 19 feet. Remember: stay off of jetties, piers, rocks, and other waterside infrastructure, remain out of the water, and never turn your back on the ocean! && .MTR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
