AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
415 AM PDT MON AUG 15 2005

.SYNOPSIS...A WEAK UPPER LOW OVER THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BIGHT AND
RESIDUAL MONSOONAL MOISTURE WILL BRING SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGH THIS EVENING...MAINLY IN THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS. DRIER
SOUTWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL REDUCE THE CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS
WEDNESDAY INTO THE WEEKEND. OVERNIGHT LOW CLOUDS WILL EXTEND INLAND
INTO THE VALLEYS FOR MUCH OF THE WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES...

THUNDERSTORMS HAVE CONTINUED TO DEVELOP MUCH OF THE NIGHT ACROSS
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA IN THE MOIST...UNSTABLE...DIFLUENT AREA TO THE
NORTHEAST OF A WEAK UPPER LOW CENTERED OVER THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
BIGHT. GREATEST ACTIVIY THE PAST COUPLE OF HOURS HAS BEEN ACROSS LOS
ANGELES AND WESTERN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES. NEW CELLS CONTINUE TO
DEVELOP AND SPREAD NORTHWARD WITH CELLS EXTENDING AS FAR SOUTH AS
THE SANTA ANA MOUNTAINS. FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED UNTIL 8
PM FOR THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS OF SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY. WHILE
RELATIVELY FAST CELL MOVEMENT AND MODERATE PWS WOULD TEND TO REDUCE
THE POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING...CELLS HAVE TRAINED OVERNIGHT AND
MAY CONTINUE TO DO SO TODAY GIVEN THE UPPER FORCING. WHILE MOST GAGE
REPORTS HAVE BEEN LESS THAN ONE HALF INCH OVERNIGHT...AN AUTOMATED
SENSOR IN THE SUMMIT VALLEY...EAST OF CAJON PASS...RECORDED 1.73
INCHES. CROSS SECTIONS SHOW DRYING FOR TUESDAY...BUT PERHAPS WITH
STILL ENOUGH RESIDUAL MOISTURE FOR AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS.
ALSO...ENOUGH VERTICAL SHEARING FOR AT LEAST AN ISOLATED THREAT FOR
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...WIND AND HAIL. VERTICAL SHEAR PROFILE COULD
SUPPORT ISOLATED TORNADO FORMATION IN UPPER DESERT AREAS LATER TODAY.

MODERATELY DEEP MARINE LAYER WILL CONTINUE WEST OF THE MOUNTAINS FOR
MUCH OF THE WEEK WITH OVERNIGHT LOW CLOUDS EXTENDING INLAND INTO THE
VALLEYS. THIS WILL CONTINUE TO MODERATE TEMPERATURES WEST OF THE
MOUNTAINS. BY THE WEEKEND INTO NEXT WEEK...HIGH PRESSURE MAY BEGIN
TO BUILD AND EXPAND WESTWARD ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. THIS SHOULD
BRING WARMING AND A DECREASE IN THE MARINE LAYER. IT MIGHT ALSO
BRING A RETURN OF THE MONSOON.

&&

.AVIATION...UPPER LOW MOVING IN FROM WEST ATOP THE MONSOON AIR MASS
COMING IN FROM THE EAST. AND BELOW ALL THAT IS A 3000 FT MARINE
LAYER TRYING TO MOVE INLAND. LOW CLOUDS ARE ALREADY STARTING TO BE
ERODED BY THE MONSOON. BIGGEST LIGHTNING SHOW THIS SIDE OF TEXAS
CONTINUES IN THE INLAND EMPIRE...THE MOUNTAINS...AND THE UPPER
DESERTS. EXPECT NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS AND TURBULENT FLYING
CONDITIONS AS THE UPPER LOW CONTINUES TO MOVE INTO SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA...INCREASING THE INSTABILITY. STRATUS BASE AT THE COAST
IS ABOUT 2000 FEET MSL WITH TOPS TO 3000 FEET. DESPITE THE DEPTH OF
THE MARINE LAYER...EXPECT IT TO CLEAR BY 17Z.

&&

.SGX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
FLASH FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 8 PM MONDAY FOR CAZ055-CAZ060.
