AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
125 PM PDT FRI AUG 31 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL BRING HOT WEATHER THROUGH THE LABOR
DAY WEEKEND. MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY WILL BRING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS. HEAVY RAINFALL AND LOCAL FLOODING WILL BE
POSSIBLE FROM SOME OF THE STORMS. COOLER AND LESS HUMID WEATHER IS
EXPECTED BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

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

&&

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPED RAPIDLY TODAY AND
CONTINUE AT 20Z THIS AFTERNOON. THEY HAVE MAINLY BEEN OVER THE
MOUNTAINS...BUT EASTERLY WINDS ALOFT ARE EXPECTED TO PUSH A FEW OFF
INTO THE VALLEYS LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. THE 12Z
MIRAMAR SOUNDING SHOWS A VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE WITH
WEAK WINDS ALOFT...SO LOCAL FLASH FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE FROM THE
HEAVIER CELLS THAT DEVELOP. IN ADDITION...A FEW WILL CONTAIN HAIL.
SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENTS REMAIN QUITE WEAK AND EVEN OFFSHORE TO
THE NORTH WHICH IS CONTRIBUTING TO THE VERY WARM CONDITIONS JUST
INLAND FROM THE COAST. DEWPOINTS IN THE 50S AND 60S WILL KEEP
RELATIVE HUMIDITY RATHER HIGH AND OVERNIGHT MINIMUMS ELEVATED.

EXPECT MORE UNCOMFORTABLY HOT AND HUMID DAYS...ESPECIALLY JUST
INLAND FROM THE COAST THROUGH LABOR DAY. WEAK OFFSHORE GRADIENTS
WILL LIKELY DELAY SEA BREEZE ONSET IN THE MORNINGS...ALLOWING
TEMPERATURES OVER THE COAST AND COASTAL VALLEYS TO RISE RAPIDLY
AFTER SUN UP. EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING IS IN EFFECT FOR THE
VALLEYS...BUT ALL AREAS EXCEPT THE IMMEDIATE COAST WILL BE QUITE
WARM AND THE WARNING MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED INTO THE MOUNTAINS AND
DESERTS OVER THE WEEKEND IF TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY RISE MUCH
FURTHER. AT THIS POINT THE GFS SHOWS A SLIGHT WEAKENING OF THE UPPER
HIGH OVER THE AREA SO WILL HAVE TO MONITOR.

A FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR ALL AREAS EXCEPT THE COAST
THROUGH 8 PM THIS EVENING AND MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED IF CONVECTION
PERSISTS PAST SUN DOWN. THE ATMOSPHERE IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN VERY
MOIST AND UNSTABLE WITH A SLOW EAST DRIFT OF THE WINDS ALOFT. ANY
THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP OVER THE MTNS COULD MOVE OVER THE
FOOTHILLS AND VALLEYS...AND HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF AFFECTING THE
COASTAL AREAS AFTER DARK.

MODELS INDICATE A GRADUAL DRYING THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK...BUT A THREAT OF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE AT
TIMES. CONTINUED HOT THROUGH AT LEAST MON...THEN COOLING AS THE
UPPER HIGH BREAKS DOWN AND STRONG ONSHORE FLOW DEVELOPS IN
ASSOCIATION WITH A THROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE PACIFIC NW.

&&

.AVIATION...
311930Z...MAIN ISSUE REMAINS THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY OVER THE
MOUNTAINS AND ADJACENT DESERT AND VALLEY AREAS THROUGH THIS
AFTERNOON. THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BE ISOLATED WITH BASES AT OR ABOVE
FL080 WITH TOPS TO FL400 AT TIMES. EXPECT MOST ACTIVITY TO SUBSIDE
BY SUNSET. THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO FLARE UP AGAIN BY
AFTERNOON ON SATURDAY.

MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY SHOULD BE SIMILAR TO TODAY EXCEPT
FOR SOME DECREASE NEAR THE COAST. TEMPERATURES SATURDAY AFTERNOON
SHOULD BE BETWEEN 25 AND 30 DEGREES C AT KSAN AND KSNA...40 TO 43
DEGREES C AT KONT...AND 45 TO 48 DEGREES C AT KPSP.

THE MARINE LAYER IS QUITE SHALLOW AND SHOULD NOT POSE A PROBLEM TO
ANY OF THE COASTAL AIRPORTS TODAY. A WEAK COASTAL EDDY IS EXPECTED
TO DEVELOP TONIGHT WHICH SHOULD DEEPEN THE MARINE LAYER SOMEWHAT BY
MORNING. STRATUS IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE A PROBLEM AT ANY OF THE
COASTAL AIRPORTS OVERNIGHT ALTHOUGH SOME COULD DEVELOP ALONG THE
IMMEDIATE COAST OF SAN DIEGO COUNTY BY SUNRISE.  HORTON
