SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
800 PM PST SAT FEB 26 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO MOVE OUT OF THE REGION
TONIGHT TAKING THE POSSIBILITY OF PRECIPITION WITH IT. A BRIEF
PERIOD OF FAIR WEATHER IS FORECASTED FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK BEFORE THE
APPROACH OF THE NEXT PRECIPITATION EVENT AROUND MIDWEEK...BUT THE
END OF THE WEEK DRY AND PARTLY CLOUDY.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT-TUE)...VERY COLD UPPER LOW MOVING OVERHEAD THIS
EVENING WITH 500 MB TEMPS RIGHT AROUND -35C. VERY INTERESTING WEATHER
DAY ACROSS FORECAST AREA...WITH MANY REPORTS OF GRAUPEL/SMALL HAIL...SOME
OF WHICH ACCUMULATED. ALSO...SNOW LEVELS WERE REPORTED AS LOW AS 1000
FEET...WITH REPORTS OF SNOW IN SIMI VALLEY...MOORPARK...LA CRESCENTA...AND
THE HOLLYWOOD HILLS. WHILE DOPPLER RADAR IS CURRENTLY SHOWING AN OVERALL
DECREASE IN AREAL COVERAGE OF SHOWERS...THERE IS AN ACTIVE AREA OF SHOWER
DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN COAST OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY...AND THE
ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS. 18Z AND 00Z NAM SOLUTIONS DID INDICATE THAT THE
BEST AREA OF INSTABILITY WOULD BE IN THIS AREA THIS EVENING. ANY SHOWER
ACTIVITY THAT CONTINUES THIS EVENING WILL BRING THE THREAT OF
GRAUPEL/SMALL HAIL...AS WELL AS SNOW LEVELS LOCALLY DOWN TO 1000 FEET.

WITHIN THE NEXT FEW HOURS...SHOULD SEE SHOWER ACTIVITY DECREASE IN MOST
AREAS DUE TO DRIER NORTHERLY FLOW MOVING INTO REGION AS UPPER LOW BEGINS TO
SHIFT EASTWARD. WHILE THERE COULD STILL BE SOME ISOLATED SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY
TONIGHT ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND ANTELOPE VALLEY...WILL LET WINTER STORM
WARNINGS/ADVISORIES EXPIRE AT 9 PM SINCE THERE WILL BE LITTLE OR NO
ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATION EXPECTED. HOWEVER...WILL BE POSTING WIND ADVISORY
FOR THE MOUNTAINS...AS GUSTY NORTHERLY WINDS EXPECTED TO INCREASE
OVERNIGHT...ESPEICALLY I5 CORRIDOR WHERE GUSTS TO 50 MPH CAN BE EXPECTED.
OTHER MAIN CONCERN TONIGHT WILL BE COLD TEMPERATURES. WHILE MANY OF THE
VALLEYS AND COASTAL AREAS WILL BE VULNERABLE TO SOME WIND...THERE WILL BE
POCKETS OF WIND SHELTERED AREAS THAT WILL SEE TEMPERATURES FALL BELOW
FREEZING...WITH COLDEST VALLEYS EXPECTED TO DROP INTO THE MID 20S.
AS A RESULT...FROST ADVISORY IN EFFECT FOR THE VALLEYS OF LOS
ANGELES/VENTURA COUNTIES...AS WELL AS THE COASTAL AREAS OF VENTURA AND
SOUTHERN SANTA BARBARA COUNTIES. IN ADDITION...FRIGID CONDITIONS EXPECTED
IN THE MOUNTAINS TONIGHT...WITH COLDER LOCATIONS EXPECTED TO FALL INTO
SINGLE DIGITS...WITH LOCAL WIND CHILL READINGS BELOW ZERO. WITH SUCH COLD
AIR MASS IN PLACE FOLLOWING PRECIPITATION...THERE WILL BE A SIGNIFICANT
CONCERN FOR WIDESPREAD BLACK ICE ACROSS ROADWAYS IN THE
MOUNTAINS...ANTELOPE VALLEY...AND SOME INTERIOR VALLEY LOCATIONS.

COOL AND DRY SUNDAY WITH SOME NORTHERLY MORNING BREEZES. CONTINUED
DRY WITH A SLIGHT WARMING TREND MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

*** FROM PREVIOUS DISCUSSION ***

.LONG TERM (WED-SAT)...MODELS IN BETTER AGREEMENT SHOWING A WEAK
SYSTEM MOVING INTO THE AREA WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. BEST
CHANCES FOR RAIN WILL BE NORTH OF PT CONCEPTION, BUT IT MAY HAVE
JUST ENOUGH PUNCH WITH IT TO BRING SOME LIGHT PRECIP TO THE SOUTH AS
WELL. BY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY HIGH PRESSURE WILL STRENGTHEN OFF THE
COAST OF MEXICO WITH A LITTLE RIDGE PUSHING UP INTO THE SOUTHWESTERN
U.S. THIS WILL FINALLY BRING TEMPS BACK TO AND LIKELY ABOVE NORMAL
BY NEXT WEEKEND WITH HIGHS INTO THE 70S AT LOWER ELEVATIONS.

&&

.AVIATION...26/2320Z.

COLD AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS WILL CONTINUE TO GENERATE SCATTERED
SHOWERS THIS AFTERNOON...MAINLY OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND INTERIOR
VALLEYS. STILL A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS REGION BUT
NOT SIGNIFICANT THREAT TO INCLUDE IN ANY PARTICULAR TAF. MAIN
IMPACTS WILL CONTINUE TO BE HAIL AND LOW SNOW LEVELS...WITH REPORTS
LOCALLY DOWN TO 1500 FEET THIS AFTERNOON. ATMOSPHERE EXPECTED TO
BEGIN DRYING AND STABILIZING LATER THIS EVENING...DIMINISHING THREAT
OF SHOWERS. GUSTY WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS WILL CONTINUE THIS
EVENING...BECOMING MORE NORTHERLY OVERNIGHT.

KLAX...STILL A SLIGHT CHANCE OF A RAIN SHOWER THROUGH EARLY
EVENING...OTHERWISE MAIN CONCERN WILL BE GUSTY WEST WINDS...WITH
GUSTS BETWEEN 25 AND 30 KNOTS EXPECTED DURING NEXT FEW HOURS.

KBUR...STILL A CHANCE OF SHOWER ACTIVITY THROUGH EARLY EVENING.
ATMOSPHERE EXPECTED TO DRY LATER THIS EVENING AS NORTHERLY WINDS
DEVELOP.
