SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
150 PM PST MON FEB 7 2011

.SYNOPSIS...

A TROUGH ALOFT ADVANCES INTO THE REGION FROM THE NORTHEAST...
BRINGING BREEZY CONDITIONS TONIGHT WITH A DROP IN TEMPERATURES ON
TUESDAY. A SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE INTO THE GREAT BASIN BY
LATE TUESDAY AND MAY REANIMATE THE OFFSHORE WINDS...BUT THESE WILL
GRADUALLY DECLINE BY THE WEEKS END. A HIGH PRESSURE AREA WILL BUILD
IN FROM THE WEST FOR FAIR AND WARMER CONDITIONS OVER THE WEEKEND.
THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF PRECIPITATION FOR NEXT WEEK.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-THU)...PICTURE PERFECT DAY ACROSS THE SOUTHLAND
TODAY WITH TEMPS WELL ABOVE SEASONAL NORMS AND MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES.
HOWEVER, QUITE A CHANGE EXPECTED FOR TUESDAY WITH MUCH COOLER
TEMPERATURES AND BREEZY CONDITIONS ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA. A TROF
DROPPING THROUGH NEVADA TODAY IS CAUSING LARGE PRESSURE FALLS ACROSS
THE INTERIOR, RESULTING IN A STRONG ONSHORE TREND. WHILE THIS HAS
HAD MINIMAL IMPACT TODAY, WE ARE EXPECTING A MARINE LYR TO SPIN UP
OVERNIGHT WITH CLOUDS POSSIBLY REACHING THE LOWER COASTAL VALLEYS BY
AROUND SUNRISE. WHILE THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH THE CLOUD
FORECAST DUE TO THE SIMULTANEOUS INCREASE IN NORTHERLY FLOW AS THE
TROF ADVANCES SOUTH THROUGH THE GREAT BASIN, WHAT IS CERTAIN IS THE
MARKED TEMPERATURE DROP TOMORROW AS MOST LOWER ELEVATION LOCATIONS
TOP OUT IN THE 60S, A GOOD 10-15 DEGREE DROP FROM TODAY'S READINGS.

THAT INCREASE IN NORTHERLY FLOW WITH THE TROF WILL BRING ADVISORY
LEVEL WINDS TO THE VENTURA/LA MTNS TONIGHT AS WELL AS THE ANTELOPE
VALLEY. DECIDED TO NOT ISSUE AN ADVISORY FOR SRN SBA COUNTY AS THE
MODELS SEEM TO FAVORING THE STRONGER WINDS FURTHER EAST, HOWEVER THE
USUAL FAVORED PASSES AND CANYONS THERE SHOULD SEE GUSTS TO 30-35 MPH
TONIGHT.

NORTHERLY FLOW WILL TRANSITION INTO YET ANOTHER SANTA ANA WIND EVENT
TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY, LIKELY A NOTCH OR TWO STRONGER THAN
THE SUNDAY EVENT. THERE IS BETTER COLD AIR ADVECTION WITH THIS
SYSTEM AND THIS WILL HELP GENERATE A STRONGER SURFACE HIGH OVER THE
INTERIOR AND A TIGHTER GRADIENT. SO LOOK FOR WIDESPREAD ADVISORY
LEVEL WINDS DEVELOPING OVER VENTURA AND LA COUNTIES LATER TUESDAY
NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY, EVEN FOR THE COASTAL ZONES. BETTER COLD
ADVECTION WILL LEAD TO ANOTHER COOLING TREND FOR THE MTNS AND
DESERTS, BUT A GOOD 5-10 DEGREES OF WARMING FOR THE COAST AND
VALLEYS. AS IS TYPICAL WITH THE ONSET OF SANTA ANA WIND EVENTS, THE
WARMEST TEMPS WED WILL BE ACROSS THE COASTAL ZONES, WITH THE VALLEYS
LAGGING BY 3-8 DEGREES (OR AS MUCH AS 10-15 DEGREES IN THE HIGHER
VALLEYS).

SLIGHTLY WEAKER NORTHEAST WINDS EXPECTED THURSDAY BUT LIKELY STILL
ADVISORY WORTHY IN MANY AREAS. INLAND TEMPS WILL START TO REBOUND AS
COLD ADVECTION MOVES EAST. OTHERWISE, A VERY SIMILAR DAY TO WED.

.LONG TERM (FRI-MON)...OFFSHORE FLOW CONTINUES TO WEAKEN FRIDAY BUT
OVERALL STILL A VERY NICE DAY ACROSS THE AREA WITH WELL ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPERATURES. WE SHOULD SEE A COOLING TREND BEGIN SATURDAY AS THE
WEST COAST RIDGE STARTS TO BREAK DOWN AND GRADIENTS START TURNING
ONSHORE. AFTER SATURDAY THE MODELS HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH THE
ONSET OF A PATTERN CHANGE FOR THE AREA. EARLIER RUNS INDICATED A
RAPID EVOLUTION TO A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT TROF ACROSS THE WEST COAST
AS EARLY AS SUNDAY, HOWEVER NEWER RUNS, INCLUDING EVEN THE 12Z
ECMWF, HAVE DELAYED THIS QUITE A BIT TO AT LEAST TUESDAY AND PERHAPS
AS LATE AS WEDNESDAY. HAVE DECIDED TO LEAVE IN A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
PRECIP FOR MONDAY AS THERE ARE STILL A FEW GFS ENSEMBLE MEMBERS
SUPPORTING A FASTER SOLUTION, BUT AT THIS TIME IT APPEARS OUR NEXT
RAIN CHANCE WILL BE HOLDING OFF A LITTLE LONGER.

&&

.AVIATION...07/1800Z.
A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST CONCERNING THE ANTICIPATED RETURN OF LOW
CLOUDS AND FOG TO SECTIONS OF THE LA AND VENTURA COUNTY COASTS
TONIGHT. THE LOW CLOUDS AND FOG MAY ALSO DRIFT CLOSE TO THE SAN
FERNANDO VALLEY...PROVIDING ANOTHER AREA OF CONCERN AND CONTINUING
THE THEME OF LOW CONFIDENCE. MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO
ACCOMPANY ANY LOW CLOUDS AND FOG.

KLAX...A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST CONCERNING THE QUESTION OF THE
RETURN OF LOW CLOUDS AND FOG....BOTH IN TERMS OF EXISTENCE AND
TIMING. THERE IS A 40 PERCENT CHANCE THAT LOW CLOUDS AND FOG WILL
NOT REACH THE AIRFIELD AND CONDITIONS WILL BE VFR THROUGH THE NIGHT.
ANY LOW CLOUDS AND FOG COULD PRODUCE MVFR CONDITIONS.

KBUR...A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST REGARDING THE POSSIBLE RETURN OF
LOW CLOUDS AND FOG...BOTH IN TERMS OF EXISTENCE AND TIMING. THERE IS
A 60 PERCENT CHANCE OF VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE NIGHT. ANY LOW
CLOUDS AND FOG WOULD CAUSE LOCAL IFR CONDITIONS.
