Strong and gusty
northwest winds impacted much of the Bay Area resulting in downed trees,
downed power lines, rough seas and even broken windows. A weak cold front
moved through the Bay Area during the overnight hours of April 8th. As
the cold front exited quickly to the south and east of the Bay Area high
pressure began to build over the Pacific Northwest and Northern California.
As a result, the northerly pressure gradient increased rapidly during the
early morning hours of April 8th. ||The rather strong northerly pressure
gradient helped to produce widespread wind gusts in excess of 35 mph with a
few locations over 60 mph. Numerous reports of downed trees and power lines
were received as a result of the strong winds. The strong winds also
impacted KSFO airport and a Airport Weather Warning (AWW) was issued for
gusts up to 40 kts. The last major wind event to impact the Bay Area was
January 4th, 2008 where 100 mph gusts were reported.||Over the coastal
waters the strong winds helped to produce hazardous conditions with steep
wind waves and confused seas. Gale Warnings were in effect for much of the
coastal waters including San Francisco Bay. Buoy observations indicated many
locations were near storm force conditions with several gusts up to 47 kts.
Buoy 26, east of the Farallon Islands, reported one hour of storm force

A strong ridge of high pressure building into
the Great Basin lead to gusty northerly to northeasterly winds across a
portion of our CWA. Existing low relative humidity values and dry
fuels were also observed. As a result, the several fires that developed grew
and spread rapidly to become one of the deadliest wildfire outbreaks in
state history. Many of the individual fires merged into what became known as
the Central LNU Complex and Southern LNU Complex
Fires. When all was done over 100,000 acres of land was
destroyed, thousands of structures and homes were lost, and 44 people died
across Northern California. In addition to the loss of human life, countless
pets and livestock were lost in the fires. |
