ANTELOPE VALLEY WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH THRU THE NIGHT.

SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL CA IS FORECAST TO REMAIN ON THE WRN PERIPHERY
OF A LARGE UPPER LEVEL HIGH CENTERED OVER CENTRAL NEW MEXICO TO
CENTRAL ARIZONA TONIGHT THROUGH MON. A BROAD MOSTLY S FLOW ALOFT
INTO SRN CA WILL KEEP SOME MONSOONAL MOISTURE AT MID LEVELS THRU
MON. THE UPPER HIGH WILL THEN SLOWLY WEAKEN TUE THRU WED AS AN UPPER
LEVEL TROF APPROACHES THE CA COAST...WITH A DRYER S TO SW FLOW ALOFT
DEVELOPING OVER THE REGION. THE LINGERING MID LEVEL MOISTURE ON MON
COMBINED WITH SOME INSTABILITY WILL RESULT IN A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR MTNS OF
VTU/L.A. COUNTIES AND THE ANTELOPE VALLEY. OTHERWISE...DRY WEATHER
WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH WED. VARYING AMOUNTS OF NIGHT
AND MORNING LOW CLOUDS AND FOG SHOULD AFFECT THE CENTRAL COAST THRU

HIGHS REACHING UP TO 108 DEG IN THE VALLEYS...AND UP TO 105 DEG

TOWARDS STRONGER UPPER LEVEL RIDGING IN THE EXTENDED FORECAST. AS A
RESULT...HAVE TRENDED TEMPERATURES UPWARD A FEW DEGREES IN THE
EXTENDED PERIOD WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR WARMEST INTERIOR LOCATIONS TO

INDICATED 10-15 PERCENT THUNDERSTORM PROBABILITY OVER THE MOUNTAINS
AND DESERTS...BUT WILL WAIT FOR MORE MODEL RUNS BEFORE GOING TOO
