AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
915 AM PST THU NOV 13 2008

.SYNOPSIS...HIGH PRESSURE AND OFFSHORE FLOW WILL BRING MOSTLY CLEAR
SKIES AND WARM DAYS THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. OFFSHORE FLOW WILL
STRENGTHEN FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WHICH WILL PRODUCE STRONG GUSTY WINDS
THROUGH AND BELOW MOUNTAIN CANYONS AND PASSES. THE HIGH PRESSURE
WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN FOR A MODEST COOLING TREND NEXT WEEK.

&&

.DISCUSSION...FOR SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA INCLUDING SAN DIEGO...
ORANGE...SOUTHWEST SAN BERNARDINO AND WEST RIVERSIDE COUNTIES.

MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES WILL CONTINUE FOR A WHILE WITH ONLY A FEW HIGH
CLOUDS TO MAKE THE SKY LOOK INTERESTING. HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL
BUILD TODAY AND THE TEMPERATURES WILL RISE ACCORDINGLY. THE OFFSHORE
FLOW STARTS TODAY...BUT WINDS OF ANY CONSEQUENCE WILL ARRIVE TONIGHT
AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS ACROSS OUR REGION FROM THE NORTH.
MODELS ARE STILL TRYING TO GAIN FOCUS ON THE WIND SPEEDS...BUT TOP
GUSTS OF 60 MPH IN THE FAVORABLE LOCATIONS CAN BE EXPECTED LATE
FRIDAY MORNING INTO FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND AGAIN SATURDAY MORNING.
THAT WILL NEED AT LEAST A WIND ADVISORY. TEMPERATURES WILL EXCEED 90
IN SOME OF THE INLAND COASTAL AREAS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AND THAT
WILL APPROACH IF NOT EXCEED RECORD VALUES. AS THE OFFSHORE FLOW
RELAXES...SUNDAY WILL BE THE START OF THE COOLING TREND AT THE
COAST. BUT THE UPPER RIDGE CONTINUES AS STRONG...SO INLAND AREAS
WILL CONTINUE VERY WARM. THE UPPER RIDGE SLOWLY BENDS BUT WILL NOT
BREAK DOWN UNDER THE WEIGHT OF AN EASTERN PACIFIC TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE TUESDAY AND BEYOND. BY THEN THE COOLING TREND WILL BE
UNDERWAY EVERYWHERE. WEAK OFFSHORE FLOW WILL ALSO HOLD SUNDAY
THROUGH TUESDAY. WHEN GRADIENTS FINALLY GO WEAKLY ONSHORE ON
WEDNESDAY FOG COULD SHOW UP AT THE COAST.

&&

.AVIATION...
131415Z...OFFSHORE FLOW WILL BRING A MOSTLY CLEAR SKY WITH
UNRESTRICTED VISIBILITIES THROUGH FRIDAY. LOCAL GUSTY NORTHEAST
WINDS THROUGH THE PASSES AND CANYONS WITH ASSOCIATED UP AND DOWN
DRAFTS AND LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. HORTON

&&

.MARINE...FULL MOON THIS MORNING AND MOON AT PERIGEE...OR CLOSEST TO
THE EARTH...ON FRIDAY IS RESULTING IN MORNING ASTRONOMICAL HIGH
TIDES OF 7.5 FEET THIS MORNING AND AGAIN FRIDAY MORNING AT THE SAN
DIEGO BROADWAY PIER. MORNING HIGH TIDES ABOVE 7 FEET WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH SATURDAY.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
FORECAST MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A MODERATE
SANTA ANA WIND EVENT ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. A FIRE WEATHER WATCH IS
IN EFFECT FOR INLAND EMPIRE AND SANTA ANA MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS
INCLUDING TRABUCO RANGER DISTRICT OF CLEVELAND NATIONAL FOREST
BEGINNING 0800 PST FRIDAY AND LASTING THROUGH 1600 PST SATURDAY FOR
RELATIVE HUMIDITY BELOW 15 PERCENT AND WINDS GUSTING OVER 35 MPH.
THE WATCH WILL LIKELY BE SUPERCEDED BY THE ISSUANCE OF A RED FLAG
WARNING THIS AFTERNOON.

ON FRIDAY...AS HUMIDITY DECREASES...THE WINDS INCREASE OUT OF THE
NORTH WITH GUSTS BETWEEN 30 AND 40 MPH IN MOST AREAS OF THE INLAND
EMPIRE AND SANTA ANA MTNS. THE MORE WIND PRONE AREAS OF THE
FOOTHILLS BELOW CANYONS AND PASSES WILL LIKELY SEE WIND GUSTS
BETWEEN 40 AND 55 MPH WITH ISOLATED HIGHER GUSTS POSSIBLE. IN SAN
DIEGO COUNTY...THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS WILL SEE WINDS GUSTING IN THE
35 TO 45 MPH RANGE BUT THE RH WILL NOT YET REACH CRITICAL
THRESHOLDS. WIND SPEEDS WILL PEAK FRI NIGHT INTO SAT MORNING THEN
BEGIN DECREASING IN THE EARLY AFTERNOON ON SAT.

ON SATURDAY...THE RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL DECREASE TO CRITICAL
THRESHOLDS DURING THE DAY AND THE WINDS WILL TURN EASTERLY AND BEGIN
TO WEAKEN. IN THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY MTNS AND VALLEYS...THE LOW RH AND
WINDS GUSTING OVER 35 MPH WILL APPROACH CRITICAL THRESHOLDS FOR A
TIME DURING THE DAY.

OTHER ZONES DURING THIS TIME PERIOD AS WELL AS BEFORE THE FIRE
WEATHER WATCH BEGINS AND AFTER IT ENDS...ARE LIKELY TO HAVE SOME
FIRE WEATHER ELEMENTS APPROACH CRITICAL THRESHOLDS BUT EITHER
DURATIONS FOR LOW RH WILL NOT BE MET...AND/OR FUEL MOISTURE LEVELS
WILL BE HIGH ENOUGH TO OFFSET THE WEATHER CONDITIONS. FOR SUNDAY
INTO MONDAY...RELATIVE HUMIDITY WILL LIKELY DROP BELOW 10 PERCENT
FOR MOST IF NOT ALL OF FIRE WEATHER ZONES AND DAYTIME TEMPERATURES
WILL STILL BE ABOVE NORMAL...BUT GIVEN THE LESSENING HOURS OF
DAYLIGHT...ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO MEET THE TEN HOUR CRITERIA THIS
FAR INTO AUTUMN. SUMMING IT ALL UP...A PROLONGED PERIOD OF CRITICAL
OR NEAR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS BEGINNING WEDNESDAY AND
CONTINUING INTO THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.SGX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK AT THE BEACHES TODAY.

COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 AM PST SATURDAY.

FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR THE INLAND EMPIRE AND SANTA ANA MOUNTAINS AND
FOOTHILLS FRI MORNING THROUGH SAT AFTERNOON FOR RELATIVE HUMIDITY
