SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
330 PM PST SAT JAN 22 2011

...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE GREAT BASIN LATE
TONIGHT...BRINGING CLEAR SKIES AND OFFSHORE FLOW TO THE REGION. AS A
RESULT...STRONG AND GUSTY WINDS WILL AFFECT THE AREA AT TIMES
THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK...AND TEMPERATURES WILL CLIMB TO WELL
ABOVE SEASONAL NORMALS.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-TUESDAY)...
COOLER DAY TODAY THANKS TO THE WEAKENING OFFSHORE GRADIENTS AND
COOLER AIRMASS. AN AREA OF FOG IS HEADING FOR THE CENTRAL
COAST...AND LOOKS LIKE IT WILL IMPACT THE IMMEDIATE COASTAL AREAS
FOR AT LEAST PART OF TONIGHT. WISPS OF FOG ARE FORMING OVER THE
COASTAL WATERS OF LA COUNTY...AND KEPT MENTION OF SOME DENSE FOG
NEAR THE COASTS IN THE GOOD CHANCE THAT IT EXPANDS AND COMES ASHORE.
FOG CONCERNS SHOULD GO AWAY SUNDAY MORNING THANKS TO THE WEAK
INVERSION AND STRENGTHENING OFFSHORE FLOW.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO FORM OVER THE GREAT BASIN BEHIND AN
INSIDE TRACKING SYSTEM...AND THE ADVERTISED MODERATE TO LOCALLY
STRONG SANTA ANA EVENT STILL LOOKS ON TRACK. WENT AHEAD AND
CONVERTED THE WATCHES TO WARNINGS OVER THE LA/VTU MTNS...AND ADDED
THE SANTA MONICA MOUNTAINS TO THE MIX. THE REST OF THE USUAL COASTAL
AND VALLEY SPOTS HAVE BEEN THROWN INTO THE WIND ADVISORY
SOUP...WHICH STARTS LATER TONIGHT AND PUSHES THROUGH SUNDAY
AFTERNOON IN A FAIRLY TYPICAL WAY. TEMPERATURES SHOULD WARM UP ON
THE COASTAL SIDE OF THE MOUNTAINS...WITH SOME COOLING OVER THE
INTERIOR AREAS. SKIES WILL REMAIN CLEAR...EXCEPT FOR AN OCCASIONAL
BATCH OF HIGH CLOUDS.

THE OFFSHORE FLOW SHOULD WEAKEN SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...BUT REMAIN
LOCALLY BREEZY IN THE MTNS. GRADIENTS REMAIN MODERATELY OFFSHORE MON
AND TUE...AND WITH LITTLE CHANGE IN THE UPPER PATTERN...THE ONLY
CHANGES EXPECTED ARE A LITTLE WARMING AWAY FROM THE COASTS.

DRY CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST AND THERE WILL BE SOME FIRE WEATHER
CONCERNS WITH THE STRONGEST WINDS...BUT DUE TO ONGOING FUEL
CONDITIONS...THE NEED FOR EXTRA FIRE WEATHER PRODUCTS IS NOT
EXPECTED.

.LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY-SATURDAY)...
STILL MORE OF THE SAME TO CLOSE OUT NEXT WEEK. EXTENDED MODELS SHOW
CONTINUED MODERATE OFFSHORE FLOW...WITH ANOTHER BOOST ON WEDNESDAY
AND THURSDAY...WHERE ADDITIONAL WIND ADVISORIES LOOK FAVORABLE. THE
UPPER PATTERN CHANGES TO A REX BLOCK-LIKE PATTERN...WHICH MAY END UP
MAKING TEMPERATURES A LITTLE COOLER THAN CURRENTLY ADVERTISED...BUT
HARD TO IGNORE THE CONSTANT OFFSHORE FLOW...AT LEAST NEAR THE
COASTS. THE ONLY HOPE OF RAIN FOR JANUARY RESTS IN THE POSITION OF
THE WEAK RELATIVE LOW...ASSOCIATED WITH THE REX BLOCK...PULLING UP
ENOUGH SUB-TROPICAL MOISTURE. AT THIS POINT...THOSE HOPES ARE
SLIMMER THAN A SLIM JIM.

&&

.AVIATION...22/2330Z.

LATEST SATELLITE SHOWS SOME STRATUS/FOG OFF THE CENTRAL COAST AND A
COUPLE PATCHES OVER THE BIGHT. THIS STRATUS/FOG WILL BE THE MAIN
ISSUE THRU THIS EVENING AS IFR CONDS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AT KSMX AND
SOME MVFR VSBYS AT KLAX/KLGB. HOWEVER OVERNIGHT...THE OFFSHORE FLOW
SHOULD KICK IN...RESULTING IN VFR CONDS FOR THE AREA ON SUNDAY. AS
THE WINDS DEVELOP...THERE WILL BE LLWS AND TURBULENCE ISSUES ACROSS
VENTURA AND LOS ANGELES COUNTIES ON SUNDAY.

KLAX...MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN 00Z TAF. THERE IS A CHANCE THE MVFR
VSBYS AT 08Z MAY NOT MATERIALIZE...WHILE THERE IS A SLIGHT CHANCE
OF IFR CONDS DEVELOPING OVERNIGHT.

KBUR...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN 00Z TAF.
