SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
240 PM PDT MON JUN 4 2007

.SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT-THURSDAY)
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER SO CAL BEGINNING TO FLATTEN OUT WITH
UNUSUALLY LARGE BROAD-SCALE TROF APPROACHING SRN CAL THIS TIME OF
YEAR. TEMPS SHOULD BE VERY SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY WITH MAYBE A DEGREE
OR TWO OF WARMING ACROSS THE INLAND AREAS INCLUDING THE ANTELOPE
VALLEY AND SOME MOUNTAIN SITES WHERE TEMPS COULD REACH TO 103
DEGREES. VALLEYS WERE ALSO TRENDING SLIGHTLY WARMER THEN YESTERDAY
AS WELL. WOODLAND HILLS COULD REACH NEAR 90 DEGREES TODAY. LATEST
SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATED STRATUS BURNOFF TO THE IMMEDIATE COAST
IN MOST AREAS OF THE FORECAST AREA. ONSHORE SFC PRESSURE GRADIENTS
ARE ONLY SLIGHTLY WEAKER THEN YESTERDAY AT THIS TIME.

TEMPS WILL BEGIN TO PLUMMET ACROSS THE INLAND AREAS AS H5 MEAN
HEIGHTS GO FROM 589DM TO 573DM OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. TEMPERATURES
WILL DROP NEARLY 15 DEGREES IN SOME LOCATIONS ON TUE AND MARINE
LAYER WILL DEEPEN TO NEAR 2500 FT BY TUE MORNING. WITH EVEN FURTHER
COOLING ON WED. TUESDAYS HIGH TEMPS SHOULD CONTINUE TO REMAIN COOL
AT THE COASTAL AREAS UNDER THE MARINE INFLUENCE...BUT MOST VALLEYS
WILL REMAIN IN THE 70S TO NEAR 80 AND THE ANTELOPE VALLEY SHOULD
ONLY GET UP TO THE MID 80S. AS COLD AIR PUSHES ACROSS THE LOCAL
COASTAL WATERS...THE MARINE LAYER WILL LIKELY BE SCOURED OUT TO THE
SANTA BARBARA CHANNEL AS 850 MB TEMPS DROP TO NEAR 7 DEGREES CELSIUS
ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE SANTA BARBARA CHANNEL. WITH STRONG GALES
EXPECTED ACROSS THE OUTER COASTAL WATERS TOMORROW...A CATALINA EDDY
WILL REDEVELOP...KEEPING LA/VTU COUNTIES IN THE LOW CLOUD AND FOG
REGIME. HOWEVER...MODERATE NORTHWEST TO NORTHERLY GRADIENTS WILL SET
UP ACROSS SBA COUNTY. THIS WILL TRANSLATE INTO LOCAL AREAS OF STRONG
GUSTY WINDS ACROSS THE SBA COUNTY MOUNTAINS AND SOUTH COAST
OVERNIGHT. A WIND ADVISORY WILL BE ISSUED FOR THESE AREAS VALID AT 3
PM THROUGH MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. LOW CLOUDS SHOULD CREEP TO THE SBA
COUNTY LINE...BUT SHOULD STAY SOUTH OF SANTA BARBARA. STRONG
SOUTHWEST TO WEST WINDS WILL ALSO AFFECT THE ANTELOPE VALLEY ON
TUESDAY...WHERE A WIND ADVISORY MAY ALSO BE NEEDED.

THICKNESS LVLS AND HEIGHTS WILL CONTINUE TO FALL TUESDAY NIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY DROPPING TEMPS AN ADDITIONAL 7 TO 10 DEGREES ACROSS THE
INLAND AREAS. WITH COLD AIR ADVECTION AND GOOD SUBSIDENCE...WINDS
WILL BE A PRIME CONCERN ACROSS THE LA/VTU COUNTY
MOUNTAINS...ESPECIALLY THE INTERSTATE 5 CORRIDOR AS STRONG NORTHERLY
WINDS 25 TO 35 MPH WITH LOCAL GUSTS TO 55 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE. WIND
ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED AS WELL FOR THE ANTELOPE VALLEY
ONCE AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY. A RATHER STRONG SUNDOWNER LOOKS TO BE
POSSIBLE TUE EVENING INTO WED MORNING AFFECTING SANTA BARBARA. TEMPS
COULD INCREASE LOCALLY 15 DEGREES WITHIN A COUPLE OF HOURS TUE
EVENING. WRF MODEL ADVERTISES SBA-SMX PRESSURE GRADIENT TO -4.4. A
HIGH WIND WATCH MIGHT BE NEEDED AS WELL. WILL LET THE SWING SHIFT
TAKE A LOOK AT THE LATEST MODELS TO GET A BETTER IDEA.

TEMPS SHOULD REMAIN SIMILAR ON THURSDAY AS BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW
CONTINUES OVER THE FORECAST AREA. WIND SHOULD NOT BE AS STRONG AS
COLDER AIR SHIFTS EASTWARD.

.LONG TERM...(FRI-MON)
BOTH GFS AND ECMWF ARE IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH MONDAY.
THICKNESS LVLS BEGIN TO RISE A BIT ON FRI AND SAT WHILE AN
ELONGATED UPPER LVL HIGH BEGINS TO PUSH WESTWARD INTO CENTRAL CA
WITH A VERY WEAK UPR LOW SITUATED NEAR THE AZ/CA BORDER. TEMPS WILL
REBOUND ON FRI AND SAT TO NEAR NORMAL. STRONG ONSHORE FLOW WILL
CONTINUE TO PERSIST WHICH MEANS THAT NIGHT THROUGH MORNING LOW
CLOUDS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD. TEMPS SHOULD REACH THE MID
90S ACROSS THE ANTELOPE VALLEY AND WARMER MOUNTAIN AREA SATURDAY AND
SUNDAY...WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER TEMPS FOR MON.
