AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
1000 AM PST THU JAN 24 2008
.SYNOPSIS...MOIST SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL CONTINUE SCATTERED SHOWERS
OVER AND WEST OF THE MOUNTAINS THROUGH FRIDAY. AN UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE WILL ENHANCE THE PRECIPITATION TONIGHT AND COULD BRING
HEAVY SNOW TO THE SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY MOUNTAINS AGAIN. AS THE MAIN
UPPER LOW MOVES THROUGH IT WILL BRING PERIODS OF HEAVY SHOWERS AND
LOCAL STRONG GUSTY WINDS SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. A FEW SHOWERS
COULD LINGER THROUGH MONDAY...THEN DRIER WEATHER WILL DEVELOP.
TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO BE BELOW NORMAL THROUGH AT LEAST EARLY
NEXT WEEK.
&&
.DISCUSSION...FOR SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA INCLUDING SAN DIEGO...
ORANGE...SOUTHWEST SAN BERNARDINO AND WEST RIVERSIDE COUNTIES.
AIR MASS MOIST AND CONDITIONALLY UNSTABLE IN THE LOWER 10000 FEET
TODAY BUT WEAK CAPPING INVERSION AROUND 12000 FEET WILL OFFSET THIS
AND SHOULD KEEP CONVECTIVE GROWTH THOUGH COLD AIR FUNNEL CLOUDS AND
WEAK WATERSPOUTS WILL BE POSSIBLE. OROGRAPHIC LIFTING AND FREEZING
LEVEL AROUND 3800 FEET WILL BRING SOME ICE PELLETS DOWN TO THE
FOOTHILLS AND HIGHER INLAND VALLEYS...OTHERWISE LIGHT TO OCCASIONAL
MODERATE RAINSHOWERS WITH SNOW ABOVE 4000 FEET. THE CAPPING
INVERSION IS WEAKENED/ERODED THIS EVENING FROM COLD AIR
ADVECTION ALOFT AS TROUGH ROTATES INLAND ACROSS CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
DUE TO NEW LOW/TROUGH DEVELOPING FURTHER OFFSHORE FROM SYSTEM
DROPPING SOUTH ALONG 130W. MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW/WARM AIR ADVECTION
IN THE LOW LEVELS DESTABILIZES THE AIR MASS AND INCREASES OROGRAPHIC
LIFTING OVER SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA...SO EXPECT AN INCREASE IN SHOWER
ACTIVITY THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. THE SNOW LEVEL SHOULD
LIFT TO 5000 FEET OVERNIGHT BUT A FORECAST OF HEAVY SNOW FOR THE SAN
BERNARDINO MOUNTAINS IS STILL SUPPORTED BY THE 12Z MODEL RUNS
SHOWING MODERATE TO HEAVY PRECIPITATION PRIMARILY CONCENTRATED NEAR
THE LA/ORANGE/SW SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY LINE AND POINTS WEST AND
NORTH. CURRENTLY HAVE A WINTER STORM WATCH OUT FOR THE SAN
BERNARDINO COUNTY MOUNTAINS THAT I PLAN TO UPGRADE TO A HEAVY SNOW
WARNING THIS AFTERNOON. SNOW AMOUNTS USING A 10 TO 1 RATIO
INDICATE UP TO 12 INCHES POSSIBLE IN THE WRIGHTWOOD AREA TAPERING
OFF TO 4 INCHES IN THE BIG BEAR AREA BETWEEN 7 PM THIS AFTERNOON AND
7 AM FRIDAY MORNING. FOR THE OTHER AREAS WILL MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENTS
TO POPS/FORECAST WORDING TO INDICATE INCREASE IN SHOWERS THIS
EVENING AND TAPERING OFF FRIDAY MORNING. FOR FRIDAY AFTERNOON
THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING...ASIDE FROM OROGRAPHIC LIFTING ALONG
SOUTH FACING SLOPES...NOT MUCH PRECIPITATION EXPECTED OVER SOUTHWEST
CALIFORNIA AS REGION WILL BE UNDER SUBSIDENCE ALOFT AS NEW LOW SPINS
UP.
THEN FROM SATURDAY AFTERNOON ON THIS SUBSIDENCE ALOFT IS REPLACED BY
STRONG LIFTING AS JET STREAM NOSES UP FROM THE SOUTHWEST AND THE LOW
MOVES TOWARDS THE COAST. THE GFS MODEL IS SLOWER IN MOVING THIS
SECOND LOW/TROUGH INLAND BUT SINCE ITS BEEN FLIP FLOPPING ALL OVER
THE PLACE THIS WEEK LITTLE STOCK IS PLACED IN ITS TIMING AND WILL
LEAN FORECAST HEAVILY TOWARDS THE ECMWF SOLUTION. THIS MODEL
CONTINUES TO SHOW TROPICAL MOISTURE BEING ENTRAINED PRIOR TO THE
CORE OF THE SYSTEM MOVING ONSHORE AND HENCE QPF AMOUNTS ARE QUITE
IMPRESSIVE. SEE NO REASON TO LOWER WHAT WAS PUT OUT IN THE MORNING
QPSSGX. FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST DISCUSSION...RAINFALL AMOUNTS COULD
BE QUITE HIGH FOR SAT NIGHT INTO SUN...POTENTIALLY 2 INCHES AT THE
COAST AND 4-6 INCHES IN OROGRAPHICALLY FAVORED S/SW MTN SLOPES.
FLASH FLOOD WATCHES WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED THEN...ESPECIALLY FOR THE
BURN AREAS. DUE TO WARM AIR BEING PULLED UP FROM THE SOUTH...SNOW
LEVELS WILL INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY SAT AND SAT NIGHT... THE 1000-500
MB THICKNESS VALUES INCREASE 140 METERS BETWEEN TODAY AND SATURDAY
NIGHT AND EXPECT SNOW LEVELS TO LIFT TO 9000 FEET BEFORE THE HEAVY
RAIN STARTS...AND NOT LOWER BELOW 7000 FEET UNTIL SUNDAY
MORNING...WHICH IMPLIES THAT MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE SNOW THAT FELL
LAST NIGHT AND FORECAST FOR TONIGHT WILL BE WASHED OFF IN THE WARM
RAINS...AND ADD TO THE FLOOD THREAT. THE HEAVY RAIN THREAT SHOULD
END BY MID MORNING SUNDAY AS THE JET AXIS MOVES EAST BUT A BROAD
TROUGH/CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT AND MOIST AIR MASS INDICATE SHOWERS
LIKELY ...POSSIBLE THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY WITH
SNOW LEVEL LOWERING TO 5000 FEET. SHOWERS TAPERING OFF SUNDAY NIGHT
AND ENDING MONDAY WITH WEAK RIDGE/COOL NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE
REGION. AGAIN LEANING TOWARD ECMWF TIMING AND POSITION FOR NEXT
WEEKS WEATHER PATTERN DUE TO RECENT INCONSISTENT GFS MODEL.

.AVIATION...
241630Z...SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TODAY AND TONIGHT...WITH
