SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
230 PM PST SUN DEC 30 2007

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-WEDNESDAY)...
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES OVER MOST OF THE AREA...WITH A FEW EXCEPTIONS.
MOIST NORTHERLY FLOW HAS ALSO ALLOWED A FAIR AMOUNT OF MOISTURE TO
BANK AGAINST THE NRN MOUNTAIN SLOPES AND THE INTERIOR PORTIONS OF
SLO AND SBA COUNTIES. NO RAIN OR SNOW OBSERVATIONS HAVE COME...BUT
SATELLITE IMAGES SUGGEST THAT SOME LIGHT SHOWERS PROBABLY OCCURRED
IN ISOLATED AREAS...JUST NOT IN AMOUNTS HIGH ENOUGH TO MEASURE. A
LITTLE BIT OF STRATUS STILL LINGERS NEAR THE LA COAST...AND SHOULD
LOITER AROUND THROUGH MUCH OF THE NIGHT BEFORE CLEARING OUT EARLY
MON MORNING. TEMPS ARE UP FROM YESTERDAY OVER MOST OF THE
AREA...SAVE THOSE VALLEY AREAS STILL UNDER THOSE PESKY CLOUDS
SPILLING IN FROM THE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY.

OFFSHORE EVENT STILL LOOKS ON TRACK TO BEGIN TONIGHT IN THE
MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS OF LA AND VTU COUNTIES. A WINTER WEATHER
SYSTEM OVER THE NORTHWEST UNITED STATES WILL ALLOW COLD AIR ALOFT TO
STREAM OVER THE GREAT BASIN. A RESULTING 1040 MB HIGH WILL BUILD
OVER NRN NEVADA LATER TONIGHT...THEN CONTINUE TO BUILD TO A 1056 MB
HIGH AS IT MOVES INTO WRN COLORADO BY TUESDAY MORNING. THIS HIGH
DOES MOVE MORE QUICKLY TO THE EAST THAN TYPICAL EVENTS...BUT THE
OVERALL STRENGTH OF THE HIGH AND THE RELATIVE CONSISTENCY OF THE
LAST NUMBER OF MODEL RUNS LOOKS TO MAKE THIS A SLAM DUNK WIND
ADVISORY FOR MOST OF LA AND VTU COUNTY BY MONDAY. WINDS WILL START
OFF IN THE MOUNTAINS AND SANTA CLARITA VALLEY TONIGHT...THEN SPREAD
INTO THE LA AND VTU VALLEYS MONDAY MORNING. THE COASTAL AREAS WILL
LIKELY ALSO NEED TO BE ADDED TO THE LIST OF ADVISORIES...FOR THE
AREAS FROM THE HOLLYWOOD HILLS THROUGH VENTURA. STILL NOT SOLD ON
THIS EVENT REACHING HIGH WIND WARNING CRITERIA WITH GUSTS OVER 58
MPH...AS THE UPPER SUPPORT IS ANYTHING BUT STELLAR. WITH THAT
SAID...DUE TO THE STRENGTH OF THE SURFACE HIGH AND THE SOLID RIDGE
ALOFT...WENT AHEAD AND ISSUED A HIGH WIND WATCH OVER THE MOUNTAINS
OF LA AND VTU COUNTIES AS WELL AS THE SANTA CLARITA VALLEY FOR THE
PEAK OF THE EVENT MONDAY NIGHT.

MONDAY THROUGH AT LEAST TUESDAY LOOKS TO BE A CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER
DAY...AS TEMPS SHOULD GO ABOVE NORMAL AND THE AIRMASS WILL DRY
SIGNIFICANTLY. DUE TO THE EXCESS MOISTURE ON THE WINDWARD SIDE OF
THE MOUNTAINS...IT SHOULD TAKE A BIT LONGER THAN USUAL TO DRY THINGS
OUT...SO THE START OF THE FIRE WEATHER WATCH HAS BEEN DELAYED A BIT.
OFFSHORE FLOW WILL WEAK ON WEDNESDAY AS A WEAK UPPER LEVEL LOW
PASSES OVER HEAD...AND THE MID LEVEL FLOW SWINGS MORE SOUTH TO SOUTH
EASTERLY. TEMPS SHOULD COOL AS A RESULT ON WED.

.LONG TERM (THURSDAY-SUNDAY)...
A 530 DM LOW IS STILL FORECASTED TO SWING AROUND A DEEP LOW OVER THE
GULF OF ALASKA AND MOVE CLOSE TO THE NRN CA COAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
THIS WILL ALLOW A DEEP LAYER OF SOUTHERLY FLOW TO FORM OVER CENTRAL
AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WED NIGHT AND THU. BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF
CONTINUE TO SHOW SOLID AGREEMENT WITH THE OVERALL TRACK AND MOISTURE
WITH THIS SYSTEM...WITH THE ONLY MAJOR DISAGREEMENT INVOLVED IN
ABOUT 12 HRS OF TIMING. EITHER WAY...LOOKS LIKELY FOR RAIN OVER THE
ENTIRE AREA EITHER ON THURSDAY...EITHER DURING THE DAY OR THE NIGHT.
BUMPED POPS UP TO LIKELY CAT AS A RESULT. THIS RAIN EVENT LOOKS TO
BE FAIRLY WARM IN NATURE WITH HIGH SNOW LEVELS AS MUCH OF THE
MOISTURE IS TAGGED TO COME FROM THE SOUTH. THIS BIT OF MOISTURE IS
THE WILDCARD AS TO HOW MUCH RAIN WE WILL GET. IF THE GFS IS RIGHT
WITH A DEEP LAYER STREAMING UP FROM THE SOUTH...WIDESPREAD RAINFALL
IN EXCESS OF ONE INCH SEEMS LIKELY...BUT MODELS OFTEN STRUGGLE WITH
THIS AND WILL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE IF IT MATERIALIZES. A COLD FRONT
BEHIND THIS SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL MOVE IN ON FRI...WITH ANOTHER YET
MUCH COLDER SYSTEM RIGHT BEHIND IT LATE SAT INTO SUN. AS A
RESULT...THE FORECAST HAS CHANCE OF PRECIP THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

&&

.AVIATION...30/1850Z
A BIT OF RESIDUAL MOISTURE HAS RESULTED IN LOW CLOUD AND FOG
FORMATION ACROSS SEVERAL OF THE COASTAL TAF SITES. KLAX...KLGB AND
KOXR MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN AVOIDING THE OCCASIONAL BKN SKY COVER
FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. THE SOUTHERN COAST WILL PROBABLY STRUGGLE A
BIT WITH A LINGERING MARINE LAYER TONIGHT BEFORE THE BUILDING
OFFSHORE FLOW KICKS ALL THE LOW CLOUDS WELL OFFSHORE SOMETIME IN THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS. SUFFICE IT TO SAY THAT THIS WILL BE A
RELATIVELY LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST. OTHER TAF SITES SHOULD REMAIN
CLOUD FREE THROUGH MONDAY...EXCEPT FOR KPRB WHICH COULD HAVE ANOTHER
BOUT OF LOW CLOUDS AND FOG IN THE MORNING.

KLAX...LOW CLOUDS AND FOG WILL LINGER NEAR THE COAST THROUGH THE
DAY...WITH A LOW CONFIDENCE POSSIBILITY OF OCCASIONAL BKN SKIES THIS
AFTERNOON. THE LOW CLOUDS AND FOG WILL MOVE IN EARLY THIS EVENING
AND CONTINUE UNTIL EARLY MONDAY MORNING WHEN THE OFFSHORE FLOW
PUSHES THE LOW CLOUDS BACK OUT TO SEA. VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
FOR THE REST OF THE DAY.

KBUR...VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH MONDAY. POSSIBLE GUSTY NORTH TO
NORTHEAST WINDS MONDAY MORNING.
