FZUS56 KEKA 151506 CWFEKA Coastal Waters Forecast for Northwest California National Weather Service Eureka CA 806 AM PDT Thu Oct 15 2026 WATERS FROM PT ST GEORGE TO PT ARENA AND OUT 60 NM PZZ400-160415- 806 AM PDT Thu Oct 15 2026 .SYNOPSIS...North winds will be light to gentle in all waters through Friday morning. Low short period seas will allow for the sea state to be mostly controlled by a mid period northwest swell around 5 feet and another mid period southwest swell around 3 feet. Though not too steep, these opposing swells will still make for a chaotic sea state. Moderate to strong north winds will gradually rebuild first in the southern waters Friday night before moving northward over the weekend. $$ PZZ450-160415- Coastal waters from Pt.
