AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
833 AM PST SUN DEC 1 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT AND OFFSHORE FLOW WILL CONTINUE THE MILD AND
DRY WEATHER THROUGH MONDAY. AS A BONUS...HIGH CLOUDS IN SUBTROPICAL
FLOW ALOFT WILL ENHANCE SUNRISES AND SUNSETS. COOLER ON TUESDAY AS A
LARGE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE IS CARVED ACROSS THE WESTERN HALF OF
THE COUNTRY. GUSTY ONSHORE FLOW WILL DEVELOP...CLOUDS WILL
INCREASE...AND TEMPERATURES WILL FALL. STRONG WESTERLY WINDS WILL
WHIP OVER THE MOUNTAIN RIDGES...AND SHOWERS WILL BREAK OUT LATE
TUESDAY AHEAD OF A STRONG COLD FRONT DIVING SOUTH THROUGH THE STATE.
IT WILL BE MUCH COOLER FOR THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK...WITH
TEMPERATURES RUNNING FROM 8 TO 15 DEGREES BELOW AVERAGE.

&&

.DISCUSSION...FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES...

HIGH CLOUDS PROVIDED ANOTHER COLORFUL SUNRISE OVER THE REGION THIS
MORNING. WINDS WERE LIGHT AWAY FROM THE COASTAL FOOTHILLS WHERE
MODERATE OFFSHORE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENTS WERE SUPPORTING
EASTERLY WINDS WITH LOCAL GUSTS OF 25 TO 35 MPH THROUGH THE WINDIER
CORRIDORS. THE MIRAMAR SOUNDING HAD A SURFACE BASED INVERSION WITH A
FEW DEGREES C OF WARMING INDICATED UP THROUGH 20K FT. NE WINDS OF
5-10 KTS WERE INDICATED BELOW 8K FT.

LATEST 12Z GUIDANCE REMAINS ON TRACK FOR OUR FINE WEATHER TO
CONTINUE THROUGH MON...THEN DETERIORATE RAPIDLY AS A DEEP UPPER-
LEVEL TROUGH IS CARVED OUT ACROSS THE WEST THROUGH MIDWEEK. FINER
DETAILS OF THE SHORT-WAVE ENERGY THAT WILL DRIVE SENSIBLE WEATHER
REMAIN IN QUESTION.

MAIN WEATHER EFFECTS OVER SOCAL WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH A STRONG
COLD FRONT THAT WILL LIKELY PASS FROM NORTH TO SOUTH TUE EVENING.
AHEAD OF THE FRONT...WESTERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE AND LIKELY REACH
HIGH WIND CRITERIA OVER THE ONSHORE WIND FAVORED RIDGES AND DESERTS
SLOPES. WITH THE FRONT...AN AREA OF SHOWERS IS LIKELY...CHANGING TO
SNOW AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS. BEHIND THE FRONT IS WILL BE QUITE
COLD...ESPECIALLY OVER THE HIGH DESERTS AND NORTHERN MOUNTAINS.

IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT...COLD AIR AND LIGHTER WINDS WILL ALLOW
TEMPERATURES TO FALL BELOW FREEZING OVER THE HIGH DESERTS RESULTING
IN FROST AND A POSSIBLE FREEZE BY WED OR THU MORNING. ANOTHER
REINFORCING SHOT OF COLD AIR IS POSSIBLE BY NEXT WEEKEND.

PRECIPITATION...NO HEAVY PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED WITH THIS
SYSTEM...BUT THERE SHOULD BE A PERIOD OF SHOWERS ON TUE NIGHT MOST
AREAS. THE SNOW LEVEL WILL BE VERY HIGH WITH THE ONSET OF THE
PRECIPITATION...THEN DROP RAPIDLY BY WED MORNING. AT THIS TIME
MODELS ARE INDICATING FROM ONE-TENTH...TO ONE-QUARTER INCH OF OF
QPF. HEAVIEST SHOULD BE IN THE SAN BERNARDINO MOUNTAINS. SOME
ACCUMULATION OF SNOW IS LIKELY THERE AS WELL...BUT LOW CONFIDENCE
THAT AMOUNTS WILL BE SIGNIFICANT. LIGHT...SHOWERY PRECIP MAY LINGER
INTO THU...MAINLY IN THE MOUNTAINS DUE TO MOIST UPSLOPE FLOW.

A PERIOD OF FOG IS POSSIBLE OVER COASTAL AREAS FOR A FEW HOURS LATE
MON INTO MON EVENING AS WE TRANSITION TO ONSHORE FLOW. THE 12Z NAM12
CONTINUES TO ADVERTISE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A MODERATE COASTAL EDDY BY
TUE MORNING. THIS WOULD DEEPEN THE MARINE LAYER QUICKLY SO THE
TIMING AND STRENGTH OF IT WILL BE IMPORTANT IN ENDING ANY DENSE FOG
THREAT.

&&

.AVIATION...
011600Z...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN UNRESTRICTED VIS AND BKN-SCT CLDS AOA
15000 FT MSL THROUGH MONDAY MORNING. LOW STRATUS/FOG LIKELY
RETURNING TO THE COAST BY MONDAY EVENING AND DEEPENING RAPIDLY
THROUGH THE NIGHT.

&&

.MARINE...
A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE COASTAL WATERS WILL BRING
STRONG WINDS AND STEEP WAVES STARTING TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND
CONTINUING INTO THE EVENING. WINDS MAY PERHAPS APPROACH GALE-FORCE
INTENSITY...WITH THE LOCAL WRF SHOWING SOME WINDS OF 30 KTS IN THE
OUTER WATERS. THE STRONG WINDS AND STEEP SEAS WILL CREATE CONDITIONS
HAZARDOUS TO MARINERS. THE FORECAST FOR WINDS OVER THE WATERS IS
MORE UNCERTAIN FOR LATE TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING...AS
THE NAM12 INDICATES A CIRCULATION SPINNING UP WHICH WOULD RESULT IN
DIMINISHED WINDS...WHILE THE GFS CONTINUES TO BRING 25-30 KT
WEST-NORTHWEST WINDS THROUGH MID-WEDNESDAY MORNING.

TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...ASTRONOMICAL HIGH TIDES REACH 7 FEET
DURING THE MID-MORNING HOURS WITH TIDES PEAKING AT 7.3-7.4 FEET
MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THE TIMES OF HIGHEST TIDE DO NOT APPEAR TO
COINCIDE WITH STRONG ONSHORE WINDS FOR TUESDAY...AND AS MENTIONED
EARLIER...IF THE NAM12 IS CORRECT IN BRINGING WEAKER WINDS FOR
WEDNESDAY MORNING...THEN THE THREAT OF THE HIGH TIDES BEING ENHANCED
BY THE WINDS WOULD BE DIMINISHED FOR THAT DAY ALSO. THUS...THERE IS
ONLY A SMALL CHANCE OF MINOR FLOODING OF LOW LYING AREAS ALONG THE
BEACH DURING TIMES OF HIGH TIDE MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
WEAK TO LOCALLY MODERATE OFFSHORE FLOW WILL PREVAIL THROUGH MONDAY
MORNING. ENE WINDS 15 TO 20 MPH WITH GUSTS OF 25 TO 35 MPH THROUGH
THE FAVORED PASSES AND CANYONS ARE POSSIBLE. MINIMUM RH WILL DROP TO
AROUND 15-20 PERCENT THIS AFTERNOON AND MON AFTERNOON. COLDER...WITH
HIGHER RH BEGINNING TUE. THERE IS A CHANCE OF SHOWERS LATE TUE
THROUGH THU. STRONG WEST WINDS WILL DEVELOP IN THE MOUNTAINS AND
DESERTS TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING. GUSTS 55 TO 65
MPH ARE POSSIBLE. ONSHORE WINDS WILL WEAKEN THROUGH THE DAY WED.
