AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY - HANFORD CA
240 PM PDT SUN JUL 13 2008

.DISCUSSION...INVERTED TROF CONTINUES AS THE MAIN WEATHER PROBLEM
FOR THIS AFTERNOON AS THUNDERSTORMS WERE NOW STARTING ACROSS THE
MOUNTAINS FROM YOSEMITE TO THE TEHACHAPI RANGE. WHILE CLOUDS THAT
MOVED OVER THE SOUTHERN END OF THE DISTRICT HELPED TO INHIBIT
CONVECTION EARLIER...ENOUGH CLEARING SHOULD ALLOW FOR BETTER
DEVELOPMENT DURING THE LATTER PARTS OF THIS AFTERNOON. AGAIN...THE
MAIN CONCERN WITH THESE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THE POSSIBLE HEAVY
PRECIP ASSOCIATED WITH THE MONSOONAL SURGE PUSHING NORTHWARD. GOES
TOTAL PRECIPITABLE WATER IMAGERY CONTINUES TO SHOW MONSOONAL
MOISTURE SURGING WELL INTO THE DISTRICT WITH VALUES OF ALMOST 2
INCHES REACHING INTO THE AREA. FURTHERMORE...FLOODING COULD BE
ENHANCED TODAY AS OROGRAPHIC SUPPORT WILL PROVIDE ADDITIONAL
SUPPORT FOR HIGHER PRECIP RATES OVER THE MOUNTAINS. WITH
THIS...WILL ALLOW THE FLOOD WATCH TO REMAIN EFFECT THIS AFTERNOON.

MODELS SHOW LITTLE CHANGE IN THE WEATHER PATTERN WITH ADDITIONAL
THUNDERSTORMS OCCURRING ON MONDAY. MODELS CONTINUE TO PROG MOST OF
THE DEVELOPMENT OVER THE MOUNTAINS AS THE GENERAL FLOW REMAINS
MORE EASTERLY. WILL NOT MENTION THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE VALLEY ON
MONDAY AS MONSOONAL MOISTURE HAS NOT PENETRATED INTO THE VALLEY
FOR ANY REAL DEVELOPMENT. TUESDAY WILL BE A TRANSITIONAL DAY AS
MONSOONAL MOISTURE LINGERS OVER THE AREA...BUT CONFINED TO THE
CREST OF THE MOUNTAINS AS CONVECTION BECOMES MORE ISOLATED.

BY WEDNESDAY...MODELS ARE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT WITH INTRODUCING A
MORE WESTERLY FLOW PATTERN AS A TROF PUSHES THROUGH THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST. WHILE THE DEPTH OF THIS TROF MAY BE TOO WEAK OVER
CENTRAL CALIFORNIA...THE WESTERLY FLOW MAY HELP IN SHIFTING DRIER
AIR INTO THE REGION AS NOTED ON 700MB MOISTURE PROGS.
THEREFORE...WILL MAKE MINIMAL CHANGES TO THE EXTENDED PERIOD AS
MAINTAIN THE DRYING TREND FOR LATER IN THE WEEK. YET...WITH THE
DRIER AIR WILL COME WARMER TEMPERATURES OVER THE CENTRAL
CALIFORNIA VALLEY. MODELS ARE BEGINNING TO PROG 850MB TEMP/S OF 26
TO 28 DEG-C BY WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...RESPECTIVELY. THIS SHOULD
TRANSLATE IN SURFACE TEMPERATURES REACHING THE 100 DEG-F BY MID
WEEK BEFORE COOLING OCCURS LATER IN THE WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR EXCEPT LOCAL MVFR SFC AND ALOFT IN HZ/FU ACROSS
THE CENTRAL CALIFORNIA INTERIOR THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY. ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE MTNS AND DESERTS

THUNDERSTORMS ALSO POSSIBLE IN THE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY DURING THESE
