AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
120 PM PST SUN FEB 8 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
CLOUDS WILL BE GATHERING AGAIN LATE TONIGHT AND MONDAY AS ANOTHER
STRONG COLD FRONT BRINGS MORE WIND...RAIN...AND MOUNTAIN SNOW TO
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. COOL AND PARTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS SHOULD
PREVAIL TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY UNDER WEAK HIGH PRESSURE. THE ACTIVE
WEATHER PATTERN CONTINUES WITH ANOTHER COLD STORM EXPECTED TO PUSH
THROUGH CALIFORNIA ON THURSDAY WITH MORE LIGHT RAIN AND SNOW...
FOLLOWED. A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE IS SLATED TO BRING ANOTHER
BREAK ON FRIDAY...THEN A STRONGER STORM APPEARS HEADED OUR WAY FOR
NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.DISCUSSION...

SCATTERED...MOSTLY LIGHT SHOWERS CONTINUED TO DEVELOP OVER THE AREA
IN RESPONSE TO DAYTIME HEATING. THE SHOWERS WERE LIGHT AND SHOULD
BECOME LESS NUMEROUS AROUND SUNSET...EXCEPT IN THE MOUNTAINS WHERE
MOIST UPSLOPE IS LIKELY TO STILL SQUEEZE OUT LIGHT AMOUNTS.
SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES W OF THE MTNS AT 21Z.
FREEZING TEMPS WERE OBSERVED ABOVE 5.5K FT IN THE MTNS WHERE SOME
SCATTERED LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS ARE LIKELY OCCURRING. FARTHER UPSTREAM
THE WATER VAPOR LOOP SHOWS ANOTHER TROUGH OFF THE NOCAL COAST
APPROACHING 130W. THIS HAS BEEN MOVING STEADILY SE.

LOOKS LIKE NO CLEAR BREAK NOW DEVELOPING BETWEEN SYSTEMS. LINGERING
MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY STILL ENOUGH TO GENERATE SCATTERED LIGHT
PRECIPITATION THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT. WITHOUT MUCH CHANCE TO
DRY OUT THE ATMOSPHERE...STEADY PRECIP SHOULD BEGIN ON THE COASTAL
SLOPES WELL IN ADVANCE OF THE APPROACHING UPSTREAM SYSTEM...WITH
LIGHT PRECIPITATION COVERING THE COAST AND VALLEY AREAS BY MORNING.
WINDS WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE OVERNIGHT AS WELL...ESPECIALLY IN THE
MOUNTAINS. BY MORNING...EXPECT WIND GUSTS OF ADVISORY STRENGTH OVER
THE MOUNTAINS AND THE ADJACENT DESERT SLOPES. STRONGEST WINDS SHOULD
MATERIALIZE OVER THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY MOUNTAINS AND ADJACENT DESERT
SLOPES WHERE ISOLATED WIND GUSTS COULD REACH 60 MPH BY AFTERNOON.

SINCE THE CORE INSTABILITY AND ENERGY WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL PASS TO
THE N...PRECIPITATION WILL BE LIGHT...EXCEPT ON THE COASTAL SLOPES
WHERE IT WILL BE ENHANCED BY UPSLOPE FLOW. THE MAIN COLD FRONT WITH
THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO PUSH FROM N TO S OVER THE CWA BETWEEN 15Z
AND 21Z ON MON. THIS SHOULD BE ACCOMPANIED BY STEADY LIGHT
PRECIPITATION AT THE LOWER ELEVATIONS...WITH MODERATE RATES RAIN/
SNOW IN THE MTNS. EXPECT BETWEEN ONE-QUARTER AND ONE-HALF INCH
TOTALS AT THE LOWER ELEVATIONS W OF THE MTNS ON MON...BETWEEN ONE
AND TWO INCHES POSSIBLE ON THE COASTAL SLOPES THROUGH TUE AM...AND
THE DESERTS SHOULD COME UP SHORT...WITH ONE-QUARTER INCH OR LESS.
PRECIPITATION WILL FALL MOSTLY AS SNOW IN THE MOUNTAINS ABOVE 5K FT.
FOR THE ENTIRE PERIOD THROUGH TUE AM...BETWEEN 6 AND 12 INCHES IS
POSSIBLE AT THE RESORTS. SNOW LEVELS WILL BE AROUND 4K FT N TO 4.8K
FEET S...LOWERING MON NIGHT TO AROUND 3-3.5K. A WINTER WEATHER
ADVISORY WILL BE NEEDED IN THE MOUNTAINS FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT.

A TRANSIENT...WEAK HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BRINGS DRY WEATHER WITH SOME
WARMING TUE INTO WED...BUT BY WED NIGHT THE NEXT STORM IN OUR PARADE
DIVES DOWN THE CA COAST WITH MORE RAIN AND SNOW FOR OUR AREA ON THU.
SIMILAR TO THE STORM MON...THIS STORM APPEARS TO BE HEADED ON AN
INLAND TRAJECTORY...SO AT THIS TIME PRECIP AMOUNTS LOOK TO BE LIGHT.

ANOTHER BREAK IS SLATED FOR FRI...BUT SINCE WE ARE SQUARELY IN THE
STORM TRACK...ANOTHER...AND EVEN STRONGER STORM IS POSSIBLE NEXT
WEEKEND WITH GREATER RAINFALL AND SNOWFALL FOR THE ENTIRE STATE.

&&

.AVIATION...
081930Z...AREA IS BETWEEN WEATHER SYSTEMS THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE
NEXT TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH ON MONDAY.
CONTINUED UNSETTLED TODAY WITH SCATTERED TO BROKEN STRATOCU WITH
BASES RANGING BETWEEN 2500 AND 5000 FEET MSL. VISIBILITIES MOSTLY
UNRESTRICTED. SOME MOUNTAIN AND HIGHER TERRAIN OBSCUREMENT. BECOMING
BROKEN TO OVERCAST LAYERS BETWEEN 2000 AND 4000 FEET MSL WITH
SCATTERED 3 TO 5 MILES IN SHOWERS LATE TONIGHT AND MONDAY.  HORTON

&&

.MARINE...
THE SWELL AT ABOUT 4 TO 5 FT INNER WATERS TO 6 TO 8 FEET OUTER
WATERS WILL SLOWLY DECREASE THROUGH MONDAY...THEN INCREASE MONDAY
NIGHT. ANOTHER SYSTEM WILL MOVE IN LATE TONIGHT WITH INCREASES
CHANCES FOR RAIN AND INCREASING WINDS. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY MAY BE
NEEDED FOR MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING.
