SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
255 PM PDT MON JUL 4 2011

.SYNOPSIS...

HIGH PRESSURE WILL PERSIST INTO MIDWEEK AND WILL DRAW MOISTURE INTO
THE REGION FOR POSSIBLE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY IN THE
MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS...AND ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES. A SLIGHT
COOLING TREND BY MIDWEEK AS THE HIGH WEAKENS. ONSHORE FLOW IS
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AND THE MARINE LAYER WILL BEGIN TO LOWER THE
TEMPERATURES TO AT OR BELOW SEASONAL NORMALS OVER THE WEEKEND.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-THU)...HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR
VENTURA AND LOS ANGELES MOUNTAINS AS WELL AS THE DESERT THROUGH
MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. A THUNDERSTORM IN THE VICINITY OF THE YUAIPA RIDGE
GAUGE EAST OF THE AREA HAD INDICATED OVER THREE QUARTERS OF AN INCH
IN 20 MINUTES EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE SLOWLY
SOUTHWEST THIS EVENING THEN MOVE NORTH LATE TONIGHT AND TUESDAY.
CONTINENTAL TOPICAL AIR MASS WITH PWATS AROUND 1.8 INCH WILL
CONTINUE OVER THE AREA AS WELL AS SURGE NORTH THROUGH THE PERIOD.
HAVE INCLUDED LOW POPS AS WELL AS THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE EAST HALF
OF THE CWA WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS WELL AS THURSDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO INDICATE A WEAK UPPER
CIRCULATION PROPAGATING NORTHWEST ACROSS MEXICO AND THE UPPER DESERT
THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

.LONG TERM (FRI-MON)...WILL CONTINUE DRY FRI AND THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD. MARITIME TROPICAL AIR MASS BEGINS TO PUSH
EAST AND EXPECT THE THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS AND SHOWERS WILL
DIMINISH. ONSHORE PUSH WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE PERIOD AND THE
MARINE LAYER WILL LIKELY RETURN. COASTAL TEMPERATURES WILL LIKELY
COOL TO SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW NORMAL FRIDAY THOUGH INLAND
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL AND LITTLE
CHANGE IS EXPECTED THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION...04/1800Z.
LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE TAF FORECASTS ON THE COAST SOUTH OF POINT
CONCEPTION DUE TO UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THE PRESENCE OF MARINE
CLOUDS OVERNIGHT. ELSEWHERE...THERE IS DECENT CONFIDENCE IN THE TAF
FORECASTS. LA COUNTY HAS THE LEAST CHANCE OF SEEING MARINE CLOUDS
OVERNIGHT DUE TO THE TROPICAL INFLUENCE ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER LOW
PASSING JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA.

KLAX...LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE 18Z TAF. THERE IS A 40 PERCENT CHANCE
OF LOW CLOUDS AND FOG WITH IFR CONDITIONS DURING THE NIGHT.

KBUR...GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE 18Z TAF WITH VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED
INTO TUESDAY.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
SIGNIFICANT SURGE OF MONSOONAL MOISTURE TO OUR SOUTH AND EAST THIS
MORNING AS EVIDENT BY THE 1.86 INCH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUE ON 12Z
MIRIMAR SOUNDING. AS EASTERLY WAVE PROPOGATES WESTWARD TODAY THIS
SURGE OF MOISTURE IS FORECASTED TO SURGE NORTHWESTWARD INTO OUR
FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. WHILE BEST CHANCE OF
STORMS TODAY AND TONIGHT WILL OCCUR ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND
ANTELOPE VALLEY...THERE IS ALSO A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS FOR
COASTAL AND VALLEY AREAS SOUTH OF POINT CONCEPTION. AS THE SURGE OF
MOISTURE MOVES NORTHWESTARD...THE SMALL CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL
SPREAD INTO INTERIOR PORTIONS OF SLO COUNTY AND CUYAMA VALLEY ON
TUESDAY. OVERALL TREND OF INCREASING MOISTURE WILL BRING BETTER
CHANCE OF WETTING RAINS WITH STORMS...WITH EVEN THE POSSIBILITY OF
ISOLATED FLASH FLOODING IN THE MOUNTAINS. HOWEVER...COULD INITIALLY
SEE SOME ISOLATED DRY LIGHTNING STRIKES ON LEADING EDGE OF MONSOON
FRONT AS IT PUSHES UP FROM THE SOUTHEAST. IN FACT...12Z NAM MODEL
SOUNDING FOR THE ANTELOPE VALLEY STILL SHOWS INVERTED-V MOISTURE
PROFILE FOR THIS AFTERNOON...WITH INCREASING MOISTURE BY LATE
AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. AS A RESULT...BEST THREAT FOR DRY LIGHTNING
STRIKES AND GUSTY DOWNBURST WINDS THIS AFTERNOON WILL OCCUR ACROSS
THE ANTELOPE VALLEY. SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH THURSDAY...MAINLY OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS...AS THE
MOIST SOUTHEAST FLOW ALOFT CONTINUES.
