California – Thick fog and damp air cling to Eureka’s coastline, where visibility drops and steady rain begins to take control.
Clouds dominate early, and rain quickly becomes the main story through the day. Highs struggle to reach the low 60s, keeping conditions cool and damp across Humboldt County.
According to the National Weather Service, rain chances surge to 80% today, with periods of showers and patchy fog reducing visibility, especially along U.S. 101 and coastal routes. Rainfall may come in bursts, briefly intensifying before easing again.
By Friday, conditions worsen. Rain becomes more persistent, with a 90% chance and steady showers spreading across Eureka, Arcata, and nearby communities. Expect wet pavement and slower travel through the day.
Friday night into Saturday marks the peak impact. Rain reaches a 100% likelihood, with continuous showers and possible heavier pockets. Roads stay slick, and drainage areas may begin to fill.
Plan extra time for travel, especially during early morning and evening hours. Fog combined with rain will reduce visibility quickly.
Saturday remains soaked, followed by continued rain into Sunday. Highs stay in the 50s, reinforcing a chilly, wet pattern across the North Coast.
Keep rain gear handy and avoid unnecessary travel during heavier bursts. Conditions may gradually improve early next week.
