SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
1045 PM PDT TUE OCT 7 2008

.UPDATE...LOCALLY BREEZY NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS HAVE PICKED UP
OVER THE MOUNTAINS OF LOS ANGELES...VENTURA...AND SANTA BARBARA
COUNTIES. SURFACE GRADIENTS ARE STILL WEAK TO SLIGHTLY MODERATE
OFFSHORE THIS EVENING...WITH SOME 950 MB THERMAL PACKING PRESENT
IN THE LATEST NAM-WRF SOLUTION. WITH LITTLE UPPER-LEVEL SUPPORT
IN THE MODELS...WINDS SHOULD BE SHORT-LIVED AND/OR ISOLATED THIS
EVENING. NAM-WRF INDICATES MARGINAL 950 MB THERMAL GRADIENTS
AROUND 6 DEGREES CELSIUS BETWEEN THE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY AND THE
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BIGHT. FORECAST PACKAGE HAS BEEN UPDATED TO
INCREASE WINDS SLIGHTLY IN THE MORE FAVORABLE AREAS.

UPPER-LEVEL RIDGE IS SHOWING SOME SIGNS OF FLATTENING OUT
ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY THIS EVENING. KNKX SOUNDING INDICATED
CONTINUED WARMING AT 950 MB WITH TEMPERATURES AROUND 29 DEGREES
CELSIUS THIS EVENING. WITH OFFSHORE FLOW REGIME FIRMLY IN
PLACE...MARINE LAYER SHOULD REMAIN ABSENT AGAIN TONIGHT...CREATING
ANOTHER WARM DAY FOR WEDNESDAY. HOWEVER...WITH THE RIDGE
FLATTENING AND HEIGHTS WEAKENING OVER THE AREA...WEDNESDAY SHOULD
NOT BE AS WARM AS TODAY. CURRENTLY THE THERMAL TROUGH SITS OVER
THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY AND ORANGE COUNTY COASTAL AREAS...EAST OF
WHERE THE GFS SURFACE PATTERN SUGGESTS THE TROUGH CENTER SHOULD BE
AT THIS TIME. IN ADDITION...NAM-WRF AND GFS SOLUTIONS INDICATE
1000-500 MB THICKNESSES DECREASING AND 950 MB TEMPERATURES COOLING
OVER THE COASTAL AND VALLEY AREAS. HOWEVER...A LOT WILL DEPEND ON
THE OFFSHORE GRADIENTS THROUGHOUT TONIGHT AND THE DURATION OF THE
OFFSHORE WINDS CURRENTLY DEVELOPING OVER THE AREA. THIS COULD PUSH
THE THERMAL TROUGH BACK FURTHER OFFSHORE MAKING FOR A WARMER DAY
ON WEDNESDAY. WITH GRADIENTS TRENDING OFFSHORE STILL AND BOTH
MODEL INDICATING A SIMILAR TREND OCCURRING...WEDNESDAY SHOULD BE
SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN THE CURRENT PACKAGE AND WILL BE CLOSE TO
TODAYS TEMPERATURES. MAJOR CONCERN WILL BE THE MOUNTAINS AND
ANTELOPE VALLEY WHERE TEMPERATURES APPEAR TO BE ON THE COOL SIDE.

FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT EXISTS NOW BETWEEN THE MODELS FOR LATE WEEK
IN A STRONG EARLY SEASON TROUGH DIGGING SOUTH INTO THE GREAT
BASIN BY SATURDAY. THE EFFECTS WILL BE FELT AS EARLY AS THURSDAY
NIGHT WHEN THE DRY COLD FRONT PUSHES SOUTH AND SLAMS UP AGAINST
THE NORTHERN SLOPES OF THE MOUNTAINS. NAM-WRF INDICATES MARGINAL
950 MB THERMAL GRADIENTS AROUND 6 DEGREES CELSIUS IN THE
EVENING...BUT THESE GRADIENTS TIGHTEN OVERNIGHT TO NEAR 10
DEGREES CELSIUS. IN ADDITION...950 MB AND BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS ALL
INCREASE THROUGH TO THE NIGHT WITH 950 MB WINDS NEARING 40 KNOTS
OVER SOUTHERN SANTA BARBARA COUNTY BY 15Z FRIDAY. KLAX-KBFL AND
KSBA-KSMX SURFACE ALL INCREASE OUT OF THE NORTH TO TO NEAR -5.7 MB
AND -3.5 MB RESPECTIVELY. WIND ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED AT LEAST
FOR THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY BY LATER SHIFTS.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 300 PM PDT TUE OCT 7 2008/

SHORT TERM...(TODAY-THURSDAY)
THE FORECAST IS IN GOOD SHAPE WITH CLEAR SKIES THROUGH WEDNESDAY
AND COOLER HIGHS EXPECTED ON WEDNESDAY...MAINLY NEAR THE
COAST...AS ONSHORE FLOW RETURNS IN THE AFTERNOON.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY...THE MARINE CLOUDS MAY RETURN TO
PORTIONS OF THE COAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY MORNING. IN
ADDITION...A LARGE TROUGH WILL BE DROPPING INTO THE WESTERN STATES
ON THURSDAY...LEADING TO WIDESPREAD COOLING ACROSS THE ENTIRE
FORECAST AREA. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL INTENSIFY ON THURSDAY AND
CAUSE STRONG AND GUSTY WINDS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS.

THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...THE TROUGH GETS CLOSE ENOUGH TO SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA TO GENERATE STRONG WINDS DURING THIS PERIOD WITH GUSTY
WINDS BEGINNING THURSDAY AFTERNOON IN THE ANTELOPE VALLEY AND
MOUNTAINS AND ACROSS ALL THE MOUNTAINS THURSDAY NIGHT...INCLUDING
THE I-5 CORRIDOR.

LONG TERM...FROM PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...(SAT-TUE)
THERE IS NOT TOO MUCH CONFIDENCE IN THE EXTENDED FORECAST...EVEN
THOUGH ALL THE MODELS HAVE SIMILAR SOLUTIONS. A DEEP TROUGH ALOFT
WILL DROP INTO THE OWENS VALLEY OR DEATH VALLEY REGION OF CALIFORNIA
BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON. THE NET RESULT FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE
WEEKEND WILL BE MUCH COOLER TEMPERATURES AND GUSTY WINDS. OFFSHORE
WINDS WILL BEGIN ON SUNDAY AND AS THE TROUGH STARTS TO RETREAT BACK
TO THE NORTH THE COMBINATION OF HIGHER HEIGHTS AND OFFSHORE WINDS
WILL INITIATE A RAPID WARMING FROM SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY ALONG WITH
CLEAR SKIES.

&&

.AVIATION...08/0530Z.
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH WED AFTERNOON. MODERATE
NORTHERLY GRADIENTS WILL CAUSE SOME MDT TURBULENCE AND LLWS ACROSS
THE LA/VTU/SBA COUNTY MTNS AND ADJACENT VALLEY PASSES THROUGH 10Z.

KLAX...VFR CONDS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THU AFTERNOON. EASTERLY WINDS
LESS THAN 6 KTS WILL PREVAIL BETWEEN 10Z-16Z...THEN SEABREEZE KICKS
IN BY 19Z.

KBUR...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD WITH MDT
LLWS POSSIBLE ACROSS THE ADJACENT MTNS TO THE NORTH THROUGH 10Z.
