SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
135 PM PST MON JAN 2 2006

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT)...COLD FRONT MOVED THROUGH THE AREA TODAY,
ALBEIT A FEW HOURS DELAYED, BUT CONDITIONS WERE VERY MUCH AS
EXPECTED. A LITTLE SURPRISED AT THE LACK OF AFTERNOON CONVECTION,
BUT IT APPEARS THAT AIRMASS IS JUST NOT UNSTABLE ENOUGH. MAY STILL
GET AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM OR TWO THIS AFTERNOON OR EVENING AS THE
COLD CORE MOVES INTO SAN LUIS OBISPO AND MONTEREY COUNTIES. IN
ADDITION, MOIST SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE AT LEAST THROUGH
THE EVENING SO THE POTENTIAL STILL EXISTS FOR SOME POCKETS OF HEAVY
RAIN. THUS, THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH (FOR THE BURN AREAS ONLY) HAS BEEN
EXTENDED UNTIL 7 PM TONIGHT.

WINDS STILL CRANKING PRETTY GOOD THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL LEAVE UP
THE WIND WARNINGS AND ADVISORIES AT LEAST UNTIL 4 PM. WILL
REEVALUATE THINGS THEN BUT WOULDNT BE SURPRISED IF WE HAVE TO KEEP
THAT GOING ANOTHER COUPLE HOURS.

SNOW LEVELS HAVE BEEN RUNNING AT OR ABOVE 7000 FEET MOST OF THE DAY
BUT THEY ARE NOW STARTING TO FALL AS COLDER AIR MOVES IN. WITH
CONVECTION WE COULD SEE SOME SNOW DOWN AS LOW AS 5000 FEET BUT ANY
ACCUMULATIONS SHOULD STAY AT LEAST ABOVE 6000.

SHOWERS WILL TAPER OFF OVERNIGHT WITH MOST OF THE PRECIP DONE PRIOR
TO SUNRISE ON TUE.

.LONG TERM (TUE-SAT)...DRY WEATHER EXPECTED THE REST OF THE WEEK AS
HIGH PRESSURE DEVELOPS. TEMPS A LITTLE WARMER TUES MAINLY DUE TO THE
INCREASED SUNSHINE. GRADIENTS TURN MODERATELY OFFSHORE WED AND THURS
THOUGH UPPER SUPPORT IS MARGINAL AT BEST. THUS, I DONT THINK WIND
ADVISORIES WILL BE NEEDED, BUT THE USUAL FAVORED LOCATIONS WILL GET
SOME NORTHEAST WIND GUSTS INTO THE 30S. DAYTIME TEMPS WILL BE
WARMING UP NICELY, PEAKING IN THE 70S AND EVEN LOW 80S THURS AND FRI
BEFORE COOLING OFF OVER THE WEEKEND AS THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE
BREAKS DOWN AND A WEAK TROF MOVES INTO THE PAC NW. NO RAIN EXPECTED
DOWN HERE, JUST SOME COOLER TEMPS. LONGER RANGE GFS REALLY SHOWS NO
BIG CHANGES ON THE HORIZON AND KEEPS IT DRY WITH NEAR NORMAL TEMPS
OVER SO CAL AT LEAST THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...COLD FRONT MOVED SE OF THE DISTRICT THIS AFTERNOON...BUT
THE UPPER TROF IS STILL GOING TO AFFECT THE REGION THIS EVENING WITH
ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM. GUSTY S TO
SW WINDS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH EARLY EVENING WITH SOME LLWS POSSIBLE
MAINLY OVER THE L.A. BASIN. TAF SITES WILL BE GENERALLY MVFR
OVERNIGHT BECAUSE OF CIGS BUT SOME VSBYS...ALTHO VFR CONDITIONS AT
TIMES CANNOT BE RULED OUT. SOME DENSE FOG IS EXPECTED TO AFFECT
KPRB AND KSMX LATER TONIGHT AS WELL WITH LIFR CONDITIONS. BY LATE
TUE MORNING AND THRU THE AFTERNOON VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED AT
ALL TAF SITES.

&&

.MARINE...STILL ON TRACK FOR MAJOR SWELL/SURF EVENT ACROSS THE AREA
TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY. MODELS STILL INDICATE LONG-PERIOD WESTERLY
SWELLS BUILDING TO AROUND 20 FEET ACROSS THE OUTER WATERS...AND TO
AROUND 10 TO 13 FEET ACROSS THE INNER WATERS. GIVEN THE SWELL
HEIGHTS... WILL KEEP THE HIGH SURF ADVISORIES IN EFFECT FOR COASTAL
AREAS THROUGH TUESDAY. EXPECTING BREAKERS OF 12 TO 16 FEET N OF
POINT CONCEPTION...AND 8 TO 12 FT ALONG W FACING BEACHES S OF POINT
CONCEPTION. WITH THE HIGH TIDE LATE TUE MORNING EXPECTED TO REACH
6.0 TO 6.5 FEET...MINOR COASTAL FLOODING WILL BE A CONTINUED THREAT.
AS A RESULT...A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT THROUGH TUE FOR
N OF POINT CONCEPTION...AND A COASTAL FLOOD WATCH FOR S OF POINT
CONCEPTION.

IN THE SHORTER TERM...GUSTY SW WINDS WILL PRODUCE SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CONDITIONS THROUGH MID EVENING. CONDITIONS ARE ALSO
FAVORABLE FOR ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS AND WATERSPOUTS THROUGH EARLY
THIS EVENING. ANY THUNDERSTORMS COULD PRODUCE LIGHTNING...HEAVY
RAIN...AND GUSTY WINDS.
