Eureka Weekend Weather: Morning Showers and Fog Taper Off Before Sunshine Returns
EUREKA, CA — Humboldt County residents should brace for damp conditions Saturday morning, as a blend of light rain showers and dense fog settles over the coastal region before giving way to brighter skies later in the weekend.
Morning Showers and Fog Could Disrupt Travel Plans
The National Weather Service in Eureka forecasts a 50% chance of rain and persistent patchy fog through late Saturday morning, making for potentially slick roadways and poor visibility — particularly for drivers along U.S. Highway 101 and other coastal routes. Visibility may be limited throughout the morning, especially near Eureka’s coastal neighborhoods.
While the rainfall isn’t expected to be heavy — with less than a tenth of an inch projected — locals should remain cautious during early-day errands and commutes. Temperatures will hover in the low 60s, with calm winds gradually turning northwest in the afternoon.
Clearing Conditions by Saturday Night
By Saturday night, only a slight chance of isolated showers remains, setting the stage for a clearer Sunday. Skies will stay mostly cloudy, but conditions are expected to remain dry, with highs again near 63 degrees.
Come Monday, patchy fog may still appear in the early morning, but sunshine will dominate much of the day, signaling the start of a dry and stable weather pattern heading into midweek.
What to Expect in the Five-Day Forecast
- Saturday: Showers and patchy fog likely before noon; high of 63°F

- Sunday: Mostly cloudy and dry; high of 63°F
