Eureka, California – Morning fog and stiff north winds could challenge drivers in Eureka by sunrise Wednesday, especially near U.S. 101, as Humboldt County enters a stretch of breezy, sunny days.
According to the National Weather Service in Eureka, patchy fog is expected before 8 a.m. Wednesday, with winds from the north at 16 to 18 mph and gusts reaching 29 mph. While skies will clear by late morning, these gusts may create difficult driving conditions for high-profile vehicles along coastal routes like U.S. 101 and State Route 255. Motorists should reduce speed and stay alert in fog-prone areas during early commutes.
Wednesday’s high will reach 63°F under mostly sunny skies. The wind pattern continues into the evening with gusts up to 22 mph. Thursday and Friday bring similar conditions—mild, breezy, and clear—with highs near 63°F to 65°F and patchy fog possible each morning.
Eureka’s late-week weather will favor outdoor plans after fog lifts, but coastal gusts remain a concern through Saturday. Locals should secure lightweight items outdoors and use caution when biking or walking near open roadways.
