SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
145 PM PDT TUE MAR 11 2008

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-FRI)...ANOTHER WARM DAY TODAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE
ALOFT AND GRADIENTS WEAKLY OFFSHORE. THIS WILL BE CHANGING OVER THE
NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS HIGH PRESSURE BREAKS DOWN AND THE STORM TRACK
STARTS TO SAG A LITTLE SOUTH. THE MAIN IMPACT WELL BE SEEING THIS
FAR SOUTH WILL BE AN INCREASE IN NORTHERLY WINDS AND COOLER
TEMPERATURES. WINDS WILL BE INCREASING WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON TO NEAR
ADVISORY LEVELS IN THE ANTELOPE VALLEY WHILE GUSTY WINDS ALSO
DEVELOP ALONG THE CENTRAL COAST, SOUTHERN SBA COUNTY, AND IN THE
MOUNTAINS. NORTHWEST GRADIENT REALLY STRENGTHENS WEDNESDAY NIGHT
INTO THURSDAY AND A HIGH WIND WATCH WILL BE POSTED FOR THE
SBA/VTU/LA MOUNTAINS AND ANTELOPE VALLEY. A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS ARE
POSSIBLE NEAR THE GRAPEVINE THURSDAY MORNING AS MOISTURE OVER THE
SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY BANKS UP AGAINST THE MOUNTAINS. OTHERWISE DRY
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED.

MARINE LYR SITUATION IS TRICKY THE NEXT FEW DAYS. SAT IMAGERY SHOWS
SOME LOW CLOUDS OFF THE CENTRAL COAST THIS AFTERNOON WITH CLEAR
SKIES TO THE SOUTH. LATER TONIGHT WE SHOULD SEE AT LEAST SOME PATCHY
LOW CLOUDS DEVELOPING OVER LA COUNTY AND ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS AS
GRADIENTS START TO TURN ONSHORE. CLOUDS SHOULD BE A LITTLE MORE
WIDESPREAD WED NIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING AS WELL AS THURSDAY NIGHT
INTO FRIDAY MORNING, THOUGH THE 12Z AND 18Z NAM WERE NOT THAT
IMPRESSIVE WITH LOW LVL MOISTURE EXCEPT ALONG THE CENTRAL COAST. LOW
LVL TEMPS REALLY DONT START COOLING DRAMATICALLY UNTIL FRIDAY SO
THE MARINE INVERSION SHOULD BE STRONG ENOUGH TO SUPPORT AT LEAST
SOME CLOUDS. THE EXCEPTION WILL LIKELY BE THE SOUTH COAST OF SBA
COUNTY WHERE STRONG NORTHERLY FLOW OVER THE SANTA YNEZ RANGE SHOULD
KEEP SKIES CLEAR THERE.

AS GRADIENTS TURN ONSHORE WEDNESDAY HIGH TEMPS ALONG THE COAST
SHOULD FALL A FEW DEGREES FROM TODAY. STILL WARM INLAND THOUGH AND
WARMER VALLEY LOCATIONS SHOULD STILL REACH THE LOWER 80S. COOLING
SHOULD MAKE IT FARTHER INLAND THURSDAY AND AGAIN FRIDAY WITH TEMPS
BACK TO NEAR OR SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

.LONG TERM (SAT-TUE)...STILL WATCHING A COLD UPPER LOW DROPPING
SOUTH ALONG THE WEST COAST SATURDAY. NOT A LOT OF MOISTURE WITH THIS
AS THE TRAJECTORY IS NOT FAVORABLE FOR IT, BUT WITH 500 MB TEMPS
DROPPING TO -30C THE AIRMASS WILL LIKELY BE RATHER UNSTABLE. THIS IS
LOOKING LIKE A SCATTERED SHOWER TYPE OF PATTERN WITH HIGHLY
VARIABLE PRECIP AMOUNTS AND VERY LOW SNOW LEVELS. WE MAY AT SOME
POINT NEED TO ADD THUNDER TO THE FORECAST BUT WILL JUST MENTION A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS FOR NOW AND SEE HOW THE SYSTEM EVOLVES OVER THE
NEXT COUPLE DAYS.

SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO MOVE OUT OF THE AREA SUNDAY AFTERNOON WITH
TEMPS REBOUNDING TO NORMAL LEVELS MONDAY AND TUESDAY UNDER CLEAR
SKIES.

&&

.AVIATION...11/1815Z

CLEAR SKIES AND UNRESTRICTED VISIBILITIES WILL CONTINUE FOR THE MOST
PART THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THERE IS ONLY A FAIR AMOUNT OF CONFIDENCE IN
THE FORECAST DUE TO A POTENTIAL THREAT OF SOME LOW CLOUDS AND FOG
MOVING INTO A FEW COASTAL LOCATIONS LATE TONIGHT.

KLAX...A FAIR CONFIDENCE FORECAST DUE TO THE POTENTIAL THREAT OF LOW
CLOUDS AND FOG LATE TONIGHT. FOR NOW...THE TAF IS WRITTEN WITH CLEAR
SKIES AND UNRESTRICTED VISIBILITIES IN MIND...HOWEVER LATER TAF
ISSUANCES MAY NEED TO ADD LOW CLOUDS AND FOG AS NEEDED.

KBUR...GOOD CONFIDENCE IN CLEAR SKIES AND UNRESTRICTED VISIBILITIES
THROUGH THURSDAY.
