AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
930 AM PDT WED JUN 28 2006

.SYNOPSIS...
A MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL BRING SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS IN
THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS TODAY. A THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS THURSDAY...WITH A DECREASING
TREND THROUGH FRIDAY. HOT WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INLAND TODAY WITH
TEMPERATURES ABOVE AVERAGE. A STRENGTHENING ONSHORE FLOW WILL BRING
GRADUAL COOLING WEST OF THE MOUNTAINS THROUGH FRIDAY.

&&

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

A WEAK UPPER LOW THAT WAS HELPING TO PRODUCE AN EASTERLY COMPONENT
TO THE WINDS ALOFT HAS NOW LIFTED OUT OF THE AREA. AS A RESULT THE
UPPER LEVEL WINDS HAVE SHIFTED TO THE SOUTH AND ARE WEAKENING. THIS
CHANGE WILL DIMINISH THE THREAT OF SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT
TODAY IN THE COASTAL SECTIONS AND VALLEYS AND SHIFT THE FOCUS BACK
TO THE MORE MONSOON-PRONE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS.

CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR CONVECTION TODAY...ESPECIALLY WITH NO
SIGNIFICANT MORNING CLOUD COVER TO INTERFERE WITH THE HEATING. THE
12Z NKX SOUNDING SHOWED A MOIST LAYER NEAR 700-500 MB WITH GOOD
AVAILABLE POTENTIAL ENERGY AND A LARGE DRIER LAYER BELOW. NOT QUITE
INVERTED-V TYPE BUT CERTAINLY ENOUGH TO HELP SUSTAIN LOCALLY STRONG
WIND GUSTS OR MODERATE POTENTIAL FOR MICROBURSTS NEAR STRONGER
T-STORMS. PRECIPITABLE WATER NEAR 1.5 INCHES AND SLOWER WINDS ALOFT
WILL BRING SLOWER STORM MOVEMENTS SO THERE/S ALSO A POSSIBILITY OF
SOME LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AS WELL. BASED ON THESE CONCERNS...ISSUED A
STATEMENT TO HIGHLIGHT THE THUNDERSTORM THREAT FOR TODAY.

FOR THURSDAY STILL DECENT MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY TO WORK WITH FOR
MORE AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS IN THE MOUNTAINS/DESERTS. HOWEVER THE
MONSOONAL MOISTURE WILL BE GRADUALLY DECREASING THROUGH FRI AND THIS
WILL LOWER THE COVERAGE/CHANCES FOR STORMS.

AS FOR THE TEMPERATURES...THE HOT AIRMASS WILL CONTINUE TODAY AND
WITH ALMOST NO CLOUD COVER ALLOWING FULL HEATING...MOST INLAND
LOCATIONS WILL BE AT LEAST SEVERAL DEGREES HOTTER THAN TUESDAY.
THE INLAND TEMPERATURES DROP SLIGHTLY THROUGH FRIDAY AS THE DOMINANT
RIDGE ALOFT SHIFTS E AND THICKNESSES DROP A BIT.

MEANWHILE FOR OUR COASTAL SECTIONS THE GOOD NEWS IS SOME SIGNIFICANT
HEAT RELIEF DEVELOPING THROUGH FRI. YESTERDAYS MORNING THUNDERSTORMS
AND ASSOCIATED DOWNDRAFTS SWEPT THE SHALLOW MARINE LAYER WELL OUT TO
SEA AND BROUGHT AN UNUSUAL HEAT SURGE FOR JUNE. NO SUCH MECHANISMS
ARE IN PLACE TODAY TO ALLOW ANY REPEAT. AS THE MARINE LAYER IS
STARTING TO SHOW SIGNS OF RECOVERY EXPECT A MORE EFFECTIVE SEA
BREEZE TODAY TO START MODERATING THE NEAR-COAST AIRMASS ONCE AGAIN.
THE MARINE LAYER WILL GAIN STRENGTH BOTH THU AND FRI WITH INCREASING
COASTAL EFFECTS...EXTENDING INTO THE ADJACENT VALLEYS.

LONGER RANGE OUTLOOK...THE UPPER HIGH IS FORECAST TO BEGIN BUILDING
SLOWLY BACK LATER IN THE WEEKEND OR EARLY NEXT WEEK FOR MORE HOT DAYS
INLAND AND A CHANCE FOR SOME ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS AGAIN OVER THE
MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS.

&&

.AVIATION...
MARINE LAYER AROUND 500 FT DEEP THIS MORNING BUT THE STRATUS
REMAINS WELL OFFSHORE. A FEW THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPED OVER THE LOWER
DESERTS EARLY THIS MORNING BUT HAVE SINCE DISSIPATED. UNSTABLE
AIRMASS SHOULD RESULT IN ISOLATED T-STORMS TODAY...MAINLY OVER THE
MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS AS FLOW ALOFT BECOMES MORE SOUTHWESTERLY. SOME
T-STORMS COULD PRODUCE DOWNBURSTS AS LOW LEVELS REMAIN FAIRLY DRY.
VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL TODAY WITH STRATUS RETURNING TO THE
COAST BY TOMORROW MORNING.
