SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
830 PM PDT TUE MAY 17 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
RAIN AND GUSTY MOUNTAIN AND DESERT WINDS WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA
TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING FAIR SKIES AND
POSSIBLE MARINE LAYER TO THE AREA THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. A WEAK
COLD FRONT WILL BRING A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS SUNDAY...FOLLOWED
BY ANOTHER WEAK RIDGE...WARMING TEMPERATURES EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-FRI)...DO NOT ANTICIPATE AN UPDATE THIS EVENING.
GUIDANCE INITIALIZED THE LOW/MID LEVEL MOISTURE AXIS CENTERED OVER
THE NORTH HALF OF THE AREA AND RELATIVELY STRONG LOW/MID LEVEL
ASCENDING FLOW REASONABLY WELL AND WAS CONSISTENT WITH PREVIOUS
RUNS. DRYING AND STRONG DESCENDING FLOW OVER THE OFFSHORE WATERS OF
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WILL MOVE OVER EASTERN LOS ANGELES COUNTY BY 8AM
WEDNESDAY MORNING. IN THE MEANTIME MAX RAIN RATES WERE SLIGHTLY
GREATER THAN ONE TENTH OF AN INCH AND ISOLATED THIS EVENING OVER THE
NORTH HALF OF THE AREA. EXPECT SIMILAR RATES OVER VENTURA COUNTY
THOUGH RATES WILL LIKELY INCREASE TO OVER ONE QUARTER INCH OVER
THE SAN GABRIEL MOUNTAINS AS THE MOISTURE CONSOLIDATES WITHIN THE
ACCELERATING WEST WINDS AS THE SYSTEM PROGRESSES SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT.

THE FOLLOWING IS AN EXCERPT FROM THE PREVIOUS SHIFT

WIND ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN EXTENDED THRU 9 PM WEDNESDAY AS STRONG AND
GUSTY WINDS WILL PERSIST AT TIMES. PLEASE SEE LAXNPWLOX FOR
DETAILS...

SNOW LEVELS ARE EXPECTED TO BE AROUND 6000 TO 7000 FEET BY LATE
TONIGHT AND AROUND 5500 TO 6000 FEET ON WEDNESDAY...WITH LOCAL SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS UP TO 1 TO 3 INCHES POSSIBLE ABOVE 6500 FEET.

THE SHOWERS SHOULD MOSTLY END BY WED AFTERNOON...EXCEPT IN THE MTNS
ESPECIALLY FOR THE N SLOPES AND OVER THE EASTERN INTERIOR SLO COUNTY
VLYS AND THE CUYAMA VALLEY AS LOWER LEVEL WINDS WINDS SWITCH FROM S
TO SW IN THE MORNING TO MORE W TO NW IN THE AFTERNOON. WINDS ARE
EXPECTED TO BECOME QUITE GUSTY FOR MOST COASTAL AREAS WED AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING...WITH STRONG AND GUSTY WINDS LIKELY FOR THE MTNS
AND ANTELOPE VALLEY. GUSTY NW TO N WINDS SHOULD ALSO AFFECT THE SBA
COUNTY MTNS AND S COAST LATE WED INTO WED NIGHT. IT LOOKS LIKE
ADDITIONAL WIND ADVISORIES MAY EVENTUALLY BE NEEDED FOR SOME OF
THESE AREAS WED INTO WED NIGHT.

A BROAD NW FLOW ALOFT WILL PREVAIL OVER SRN CA ON THU AS AN UPPER
RIDGE BUILDS INTO THE EASTERN PAC. THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE IS THEN
FORECAST TO BUILD INTO SRN CA LATER THU NIGHT AND FRI. IT LOOKS LIKE
THE MARINE LAYER CLOUDS MAY BECOME A BIT BETTER ORGANIZED OVER THE
SOCAL BIGHT AND ALONG THE CENTRAL COAST WED NIGHT INTO THU MORNING.
SOME LOW CLOUDS SHOULD MOVE INTO SOME COASTAL AREAS WED NIGHT...WITH
MORE EXTENSIVE LOW CLOUDS AND FOG EXPECTED THU NIGHT INTO FRI
MORNING ALONG THE COAST AND INTO SOME OF THE ADJACENT VALLEYS.
OTHERWISE FAIR SKIES CAN BE EXPECTED ACROSS THE REGION THU THRU FRI.
TEMPS ARE FORECAST TO REMAIN BELOW NORMAL IN ALL AREAS THRU
THU...THEN WARM TO NEAR NORMAL TO SLIGTHLY BELOW NORMAL FOR FRI.

.LONG TERM (SAT-TUE)...GFS AND ECMWF ARE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT THRU
THE PERIOD. IT LOOKS LIKE A BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROF WILL MOVE TO THE
CA COAST BY LATE SAT THEN MOVE SLOWLY INLAND OVER THE STATE THRU
SUN. THE TROF WILL MOVE E OF THE REGION FOR MON...WITH WEAK UPPER
LEVEL RIDGING EXPECTED OVER CENTRAL AND SRN CA ON TUE. THE UPPER
TROF IS EXPECTED TO BRING A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS TO THE FORECAST
AREA SUN INTO SUN NIGHT...OTHERWISE DRY WEATHER CAN BE EXPECTED THRU
TUE. THERE WILL ALSO BE VARYING AMOUNTS OF CLOUDS OVER THE REGION
DURING THE WEEKEND...WITH CLEARING FOR THE MOST PART EARLY NEXT
WEEK. TEMPS ARE EXPECTED TO COOL AGAIN TO SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW
NORMAL BY SUN...THEN WARM BACK TO NEAR NORMAL BY TUE.

&&

.AVIATION...18/0000Z.

MID/UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE WEST COAST WILL SHIFT EAST. STRONG
UPPER LEVEL WINDS WILL PREVAIL WHILE MODERATE MID LEVEL WEST WINDS
BECOME MODERATE TO STRONG NORTHWEST AFTER 18/12Z. SURFACE FRONT OVER
THE COASTAL WATERS NORTH OF POINT CONCEPTION WILL SHIFT SOUTHEAST
WHILE WEAKENING AND THE REMNANTS WILL SHIFT SOUTHEAST OF KLAX BY
18/14Z. WEAK INSTABILITY WITH CLOUD TOPS APPROXIMATELY 15KFT WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH 18/15Z THEN DECREASING MOISTURE AND INCREASING
STABILITY. FREEZING LEVEL AROUND 10KFT THIS AFTERNOON WILL DIFFER BY
MINUS 3KFT BY 18/21Z.

KLAX...VIRTUALLY CERTAIN -RA AT TIMES BETWEEN 18/04-18/15Z. CHANCE
