...A FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 345 PM PDT FOR
SOUTHEASTERN SAN DIEGO COUNTY...

LOCATIONS IN THE WARNING INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO LIVE OAK
SPRINGS

A STRONG THUNDERSTORM CONTINUES DRIFTING SLOWLY NORTHWEST THROUGH 
THE AREA. THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL HAS SHIFTED TO JUST NORTH OF 
CAMPO...BUT ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAINFALL IS STILL EXPECTED OVER MUCH OF 
THE WARNED AREA. 

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO
AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY
DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED
ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
930 AM PDT TUE AUG 12 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE
OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS THROUGH THIS EVENING.  HOWEVER...AN
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE INLAND OVER CALIFORNIA
TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...BRINGING DRIER AND SLIGHTLY COOLER
CONDITIONS TO THE REGION.  SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL PREVAIL
ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK...WITH DRY CONDITIONS
PREVAILING.  TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEAR OR SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL
MOST AREAS DURING THE WEEK...WITH COASTAL LOW CLOUDS AND FOG
POSSIBLE ALONG THE COAST EACH NIGHT.

&&

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

WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE DIGGING ALONG THE
WEST COAST THIS MORNING...WITH AN IMPRESSIVE NEGATIVELY TILTED
DISTURBANCE LIFTING ACROSS NORTHERN CALIFORNIA AND NEVADA AT THIS
TIME.  MEANWHILE...THE REMNANTS OF AN MCS AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARY MOVED
ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN CALIFORNIA THIS MORNING...WHICH BROUGHT SOME
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO OUR SOUTHERN MOUNTAINS AND
DESERTS.  A COUPLE OF LOCATIONS IN THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY MOUNTAINS
PICKED UP A FEW HUNDREDTHS...WHILE DESERT LOCATIONS ONLY REPORTED
TRACE AMOUNTS.  ALTHOUGH THINGS ARE NOW RELATIVELY QUIET...EXPECT
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO REDEVELOP OVER
THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON.  THE 12Z KNKX
SOUNDING SHOWS PW VALUES OF 1.52 INCHES...WHICH MEANS FLASH FLOODING
COULD BE POSSIBLE.  HOWEVER...THE UPPER LEVEL WINDS ARE RANGING
BETWEEN 15 AND 25 KT...SO ANY STORMS THAT FORM WILL LIKELY ONLY
PRODUCE BRIEF SHOWERS OF ANY GIVEN AREA.

AS THIS TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE ALONG THE WEST COAST MOVES INLAND
TONIGHT AND ON WEDNESDAY...DRIER CONDITIONS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.  A MINOR COOLING TREND WILL ALSO DEVELOP...WITH
THE MARINE LAYER WILL DEEPENING EVER SO SLIGHTLY AS WELL FOR
WEDNESDAY.  THE MODELS THEN SHOW SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT PREVAILING
ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK...AS ANOTHER
TROUGH DEVELOPS ALONG THE COAST.  THE HEIGHT OVER SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA MAY VERY A BIT FROM DAY TO DAY...BUT EXPECT TEMPERATURES
TO REMAIN NEAR OR SLIGHTLY BELOW SEASONAL NORMS FOR THE
PERIOD...WITH DRY CONDITIONS PREVAILING.

&&

.AVIATION...
121530Z...LOW CLOUDS ARE CLEARING ALONG THE COASTS TO INLAND VALLEYS
