SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
340 PM PST SAT JAN 24 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
GUSTY NORTHEAST WINDS AND HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WITH BRING CLEAR SKIES
AND WELL ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. TEMPERATURES
WILL RETURN TO NEAR NORMAL NEXT WEEK...WITH LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS
BRINGING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS EARLY IN THE WEEK...THEN AGAIN LATE IN
THE WEEK.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT-TUE)...STRONG SANTA ANA WIND EVENT TODAY
ACROSS LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES CAUSED NUMEROUS DOWNED TREES
AND POWER OUTAGES. THE STRONGEST WINDS OCCURRED IN THE LOS ANGELES
COUNTY MOUNTAINS AND SANTA MONICAS WITH THE FOLLOWING WIND GUSTS
(CAMP NINE AT 79 MPH...MALIBU HILLS AT 77 MPH...MILL CREEK AT 74
MPH). MUCH OF THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY VALLEYS AND EASTERN VENTURA
COUNTY VALLEYS WERE ALSO HIT HARD TODAY WITH A PEAK WIND GUST UP TO
60 MPH AT BURBANK...56 MPH AT TONNER CANYON...AND 66 MPH AT
CHEESEBORO.

MODEL CROSS SECTIONS SHOWED A VERY IMPRESSIVE DEEP LAYER OF STRONG
OFFSHORE WINDS AND SUBSIDENCE EARLIER TODAY...ALONG WITH GOOD COLD
AIR ADVECTION. THE LAX-DAGGETT GRADIENT PEAKED AT AN IMPRESSIVE -7.5
MB THIS MORNING...AND IS CURRENTLY RUNNING AT -6.6 MB.  DUE TO THE
STRONG UPPER LEVEL WIND SUPPORT AND SUBSIDENCE BETWEEN 850 AND 500
MB...THE SANTA ANA EVENT WAS MORE WIDESPREAD THAN USUAL...AND STRONG
WINDS IN AREAS THAT NORMALLY DO NOT SEE MUCH IN THE WAY OF OFFSHORE
WINDS. THIS WOULD INCLUDE AREAS LIKE THE FOOTHILLS OF THE SAN
GABRIEL VALLEY...AND MUCH OF THE SAN FERNANDO VALLEY (INCLUDING
BURBANK).

HIGH WIND WARNINGS REMAIN IN EFFECT THROUGH THIS EVENING FOR THE
MOUNTAINS OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES (INCLUDING THE SANTA
MONICAS) AS WELL AS THE SANTA CLARITA VALLEY...WHERE DAMAGING WIND
GUSTS OVER 60 MPH WILL CONTINUE TO BE LIKELY. ONCE THE WIND WARNINGS
EXPIRE...WIND ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY BE POSTED THROUGH SUNDAY
AFTERNOON FOR THE MOUNTAINS AND SANTA CLARITA VALLEY. WIND ADVISORIES ALSO
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS MUCH OF THE COASTAL AND VALLEY
AREAS...WITH GUSTS GENERALLY RANGING BETWEEN 35 AND 50 MPH.

UPPER LEVEL WIND SUPPORT AND SUBSIDENCE WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN OVERNIGHT
INTO SUNDAY AND THE FLOW WILL BECOME MORE EASTERLY WITH TIME.
HOWEVER...THERE IS STILL A GOOD SURGE OF OFFSHORE WINDS FROM THE SURFACE
TO 850 MB LEVEL LATE TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. IN FACT...LAX-DAGGETT
GRADIENT EXPECTED TO PEAK AROUND -7 MB ON SUNDAY MORNING.

MAX TEMPERATURES CLIMBED INTO THE LOWER 80S TODAY IN WARMER
LOCATIONS...AND WILL LIKELY NUDGE UP ANOTHER DEGREE OR TWO ON SUNDAY.
MAX TEMPS RECORDS FOR SUNDAY COULD BE IN JEOPARDY IN A FEW LOCATIONS
SUCH AS SLO CAL POLY...SBA AIRPORT AND SANTA MARIA AIRPORT...BUT
MOST RECORDS ELSEWHERE FOR THE 25TH ARE WELL INTO THE 80S AND WILL
PROBABLY BE OUT OF REACH. THE MODERATE TO STRONG SANTA ANA WINDS
WILL BRING AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF ELEVATED FIRE DANGER TO SOUTHWEST
CALIFORNIA. PLEASE SEE FIRE DISCUSSION BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS.

THE UPPER LOW OFF THE BAJA COAST WILL SEND INCREASING MID AND UPPER LEVEL
MOISTURE INTO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ON MONDAY. THIS SYSTEM IS NOT EXPECTED
TO BE A MAJOR RAIN PRODUCER...BUT THERE WILL BE A CHANCE OF RAIN SHOWERS
FROM MONDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY. THERE IS STILL THE QUESTION
OF HOW MUCH RAIN WILL FALL WITH THIS FIRST SYSTEM...BUT HIGH RESOLUTION
NAM MODEL DOES SHOW THE POTENTIAL FOR BETWEEN .10 AND .50 INCHES.

.LONG TERM (TUE NIGHT-SAT)...BY TUESDAY NIGHT...ALL EXTENDED MODELS SHOW
MOISTURE WITH THE FIRST SYSTEM MOVING OUT OF THE AREA. PARTLY CLOUDY
AND COOL ON WEDNESDAY...THEN LONG RANGE MODELS INDICATE ANOTHER SYSTEM
FROM THE SOUTHWEST POTENTIALLY MOVING INTO OUR AREA SOMETIME BETWEEN
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. IF ANY RAIN FALLS WITH THIS SYSTEM...IT IS EXPECTED
TO BE FAIRLY LIGHT. CONFIDENCE IN THE FORECAST DURING THE ENTIRE
LONG TERM PERIOD IS BELOW AVERAGE.

&&

.AVIATION...24/2330Z...

THERE IS NO MARINE LAYER AT KLAX THIS AFTERNOON.

VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED ACROSS ALL AIRFIELDS THROUGH PERIOD. GUSTY
NORTHEAST WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO DIMINISH GRADUALLY THROUGH THE
EVENING HOURS...THEN EXPECTED TO INCREASE SOMEWHAT BY EARLY SUNDAY
MORNING.  THERE IS STILL THE POTENTIAL FOR LLWS TONIGHT AT KLAX...
KBUR...AND KVNY.

KLAX...VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH PERIOD LLWS LIKELY ABOVE 020 BETWEEN
25/03-25/09Z.

KBUR...VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH PERIOD LLWS LIKELY ABOVE 020 BETWEEN
25/07-25/18Z.

&&

.MARINE...24/300 PM...
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR HAZARDOUS SEA CONDITIONS WAS EXTENDED UNTIL
9 PM THIS EVENING AS A FEW BUOYS WERE STILL SHOWING SWELLS AT OR
SLIGHTLY ABOVE 10 FEET THIS AFTERNOON. A WEST TO NORTHWEST SWELL HAD
PEAKED LATE THIS MORNING FROM POINT PIEDRAS BLANCAS TO POINT
CONCEPTION AS WELL AS IN THE OUTER WATERS SOUTH OF POINT CONCEPTION
AND WILL RANGE 7 TO 9 FEET TONIGHT. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS
FOR NORTHEAST WINDS FROM VENTURA TO SANTA MONICA AND OUT TO THE
NORTHERN CHANNEL ISLANDS AS WELL AS THE SAN PEDRO CHANNEL TO AVALON
HARBOR WILL NOW BE EXTENDED THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING AS MODELS
CONTINUE TO SHOW GUSTY NORTHEAST TO EAST WINDS AFFECTING PORTIONS OF
THE INNER WATERS. A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE WESTERN PACIFIC WAS
GENERATING SEAS APPROXIMATELY 35 FEET WITHIN A 300-310 DEGREE FETCH
DIRECTION. THIS SWELL IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE BEGINNING NEXT WEEK
THURSDAY.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...24/300 PM...

EXTENDED PERIOD OF ELEVATED FIRE DANGER FOR SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
THIS WEEKEND DUE TO MODERATE TO STRONG SANTA ANA WINDS...WARM
TEMPERATURES...AND LOW HUMIDITIES. MINIMUM HUMIDITIES HAVE GENERALLY
RANGED BETWEEN 10 AND 20 PERCENT ACROSS MUCH OF LOS ANGELES AND
VENTURA COUNTIES TODAY...RISING TO BETWEEN 15 AND 30 PERCENT ON
SUNDAY. WHILE THE STRENGTH OF SANTA ANA WINDS AND LOW HUMIDITIES
WILL LIKELY EXCEED CRITICAL LEVELS IN SOME AREAS TODAY...A RED FLAG
WARNING WILL LIKELY NOT BE ISSUED FOR THIS EVENT DUE TO THE CURRENT
STATE OF THE FUELS. LIVE FUEL MOISTURE LEVELS HAVE INCREASED
SIGNIFICANTLY ACROSS MUCH OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA
COUNTIES...WHILE GREEN-UP OF THE FINE FUELS HAS BEEN CONSIDERABLE.
