SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
300 AM PDT TUE APR 3 2012

.SYNOPSIS...

IT WILL BE SUNNY AND WARM TODAY. IT WILL BE COOLER EACH DAY
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY WITH SOME NIGHT THROUGH MORNING LOW CLOUDS.
IT WILL BE WINDY AND WARMER FRIDAY. A NICE WARM WEEKEND IS ON TAP.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-THU)...
WONDERFUL DAY ON TAP WITH A 573 DM RIDGE OVERHEAD AND LIGHT OFFSHORE
FLOW. SKIES WILL NOT BE TOTALLY CLEAR AS SOME MID LEVEL CLOUDS WILL
MOVE OVERHEAD. THERE WILL BE SOME 15 TO 25 MPH CANYON WINDS THIS
MORNING BUT THAT ALL THE GRADIENTS WILL SUPPORT. MAX TEMPS WILL BE
SIMILAR TO MONDAYS MAYBE A LITTLE WARMER INLAND AND A DEGREE OR TWO
COOLER AT THE COASTS. A LITTLE COOLER THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT AS THE
OFFSHORE PUSH IS WEAKER.

HUGE BUT NOT VERY STRONG OR WET TROF PUSHES IN OVERNIGHT LOWERING
HGTS AND REVERSING OFFSHORE SFC FLOW. GOOD NORTH FLOW SETS UP AT THE
SFC. THIS NORTH FLOW WILL LIMIT ANY LOW CLOUD FORMATION TO THE L.A.
COAST. LOOK FOR A SMALL SUNDOWNER AND ALSO SOME GUSTY I-5 CORRIDOR
WINDS.

HGTS FALL AND COMBINES WITH THE ONSHORE FLOW WILL DROP MOST MAX
TEMPS 6 TO 12 DEGREES ON WEDNESDAY. IT WILL BE A BREEZY DAY ACROSS
THE CENTRAL COAST AND THE ANTELOPE VLY AS STRENGTHENING WESTERLY
ONSHORE FLOW COMBINE WITH WEAK COLD AIR ADVECTION.

MORE NORTH FLOW CONCERNS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND LOW END ADVISORIES WILL
LIKELY BE NEEDED FOR A MODERATE SUNDOWNER THROUGH AND BELOW THE
PASSES AND CANYONS OF THE SANTA YNEZ RANGE AND THE SBA SOUTH COAST.
THE L.A. AND VTA VLYS WILL ALSO HAVE BREEZY NORTH WINDS BUT LIKELY
UNDER ADVISORY LEVELS. THE NORTH FLOW WILL KEEP THE MARINE LAYER
CLOUDS AWAY FROM ALL AREAS SAVE THE L.A. COAST BUT WILL PILE UP SOME
CLOUDS OVER THE NORTH SLOPES.

HGTS BOTTOM OUT THURSDAY AND ONSHORE FLOW PEAKS. IT WILL BE A BREEZY
AND COOL DAY. MOST COASTS AND VLYS WILL ONLY SEE MAX TEMPS IN THE
MID 60S.

LOOK FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF WIND ADVISORIES ACROSS THE SBA SOUTH COAST
AND THE I-5 CORRIDOR. THIS WILL BE BEST DAY OF NORTH FLOW AND
ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS MAY WELL EXTEND INTO THE VLYS AND THE SANTA
MONICA MTNS.

.LONG TERM (FRI-MON)...
THE BIG LOW OVER WASHINGTON STATE BEGINS TO MOVE OUT ON FRIDAY
ALLOWING FOR SOME HGT RISES OVER THE AREA. THIS ALONG WITH WEAKENING
ONSHORE FLOW WILL ALLOW FOR SOME WARMING UNDER SUNNY SKIES.

ALL THREE MEDIUM MDLS THEN BULGE UP A VERY LARGE RIDGE OVER THE
CENTRAL US. THIS RIDGE IS SO LARGE THAT IT WILL SLOWLY LEFT HGTS
OVER CALIFORNIA FOR 3 CONSECUTIVE DAYS. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A
WHILE THE WEEKEND WILL BE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WONDERFUL WITH SUNNY
SKIES AND ABOVE NORMALS TEMPS WITH JUST ENOUGH OFFSHORE FLOW TO KEEP
THE LOW CLOUDS AWAY.

MONDAY LOOKS TO BE THE WARMEST DAY OF THE NEXT 7 WITH MAX TEMPS WELL
ABOVE NORMAL WITH ALMOST ALL VLY TEMPS IN THE 80S.
