Hi Gang,

We are used to big NW clearing winds in the spring. But such events are rare in late October. Rarer yet is a counter-clockwise spinning eddy and southerly coast winds evolving into a powerful NW wind event.

These images show how this event evolved as the west coast went from southerly eddy wind so strong NW winds from Bodega Bay to Punta San Carlos:
