Area forecast discussion, Jul 1, 10:42 PM PDT, 4 hours before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
1042 PM PDT SUN JUL 1 2012
.DISCUSSION...AS OF 9:07 PM PDT SUNDAY...CURRENTLY THE IR
SATELLITE FOG PRODUCT IS SHOWING MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES ALONG THE
COAST WITH STRATUS PUSHING INTO THE INLAND VALLEYS. DEW POINTS
REMAIN IN THE MID 50S WITH AIR TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW TO MID 60S
ALONG THE COAST. THIS MILD AIRMASS WILL SUPPORT LOW STRATUS CLOUDS
AND PATCHY DRIZZLE ALONG THE COAST AND INTO THE INLAND VALLEYS.
THEREFORE...HAVE ADDED DRIZZLE ALONG THE COAST TO TONIGHT'S
FORECAST. OTHERWISE THE CURRENT FORECAST SEEMS ON TRACK.
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...VERY QUIET WEATHER CAN BE EXPECTED THIS
WEEK DUE TO A WEAK OMEGA BLOCK CONFIGURATION WHICH WILL ONLY
SLIGHTLY MODIFY. THE BLOCK IS A RESULT OF A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE
OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS ALONG WITH TROFS OVER BOTH THE NW AND NE
CONUS. AS THE WEEK PROGRESSES...THE TROFS OVER THE WEST COAST WILL
SLOWLY LIFT TO THE NORTH WHILE THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE ATTEMPTS TO
BUILD INTO OUR CWA. TEMPERATURES WILL VARY ONLY A LITTLE FOR MUCH
