...THE FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 745 PM PDT FOR
SOUTHEAST SAN LUIS OBISPO AND NORTH SANTA BARBARA COUNTIES...

AT 528 PM PDT...DOPPLER RADAR INDICATED an area of THUNDERSTORMS 
just to the north and south of the cuyama valley. it is likely that 
some areas HAVE already received one to two inches of rainfall. 
while these storms appeared to have peaked...the abundance of water 
already on the ground will be enhanced by any additional rainfall to 
maintain the threat for flash flooding. 
 
the area of most concern continues to be the cuyama 
valley...especially along highway 166 near the cuyama river.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE 
INTO AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. WHEN ENCOUNTERING 
FLOODED ROADS...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN and FIND ALTERNATE ROUTE.

SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
115 PM PDT WED JUN 10 2015

.SYNOPSIS...

WITH LOW PRESSURE MOVING THROUGH THE AREA AND TROPICAL MOISTURE
STILL IN PLACE...THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS OVER
THE MOUNTAINS TODAY. THERE IS ALSO A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS
OVER THE MOUNTAINS ON FRIDAY. SEASONABLE CONDITIONS WITH NIGHT
THROUGH MORNING LOW CLOUDS AND FOG ALONG THE COASTAL PLAIN WILL
LIKELY RETURN FOR THE WEEKEND AND NEXT WEEK.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-SAT)...LINGERING MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY FROM
BIANCA COMBINED WITH THE UPPER LOW NEAR PT CONCEPTION IS GENERATING
SOME BUILDUPS AND ISOLATED STORMS THIS AFTERNOON. WINDS ALOFT FAIRLY
STRONG FROM THE WEST/SOUTHWEST ACROSS LA/VENTURA COUNTIES BUT WEAKER
CLOSER TO THE LOW SO IF THERE'S A CHANCE FOR SOME ISOLATED FLOODING
FROM THESE STORMS IT WOULD BE ACROSS SLO/SBA COUNTY MTNS. PWATS
STILL PRETTY HIGH SO CERTAINLY PLENTY OF MOISTURE TO GENERATE SOME
HEAVY RAIN.

ACTIVITY EXPECTED TO TAPER OFF AFTER SUNSET WITH A STANDARD MARINE
LYR PATTERN SETTING IN OVERNIGHT. WITH THE UPPER LOW MOVING EAST
TONIGHT WE SHOULD SEE QUIET WEATHER THURSDAY WITH STILL A DEEP
MARINE LYR IN PLACE. PWATS STILL ABOVE NORMAL BUT LOWER THAN TODAY
SO IT SHOULDN'T FEEL QUITE AS STICKY AS THE LAST COUPLE DAYS.
TEMPERATURE TRENDS WILL VARY FROM SIMILAR NORTH OF PT CONCEPTION TO
SLIGHTLY WARMER IN THE SOUTH WITH BETTER CLEARING OF LOW CLOUDS
EXPECTED.

ON FRIDAY WE GET A LITTLE MOISTURE CREPPING IN FROM THE NORTHEAST
WITH SOME UPPER LEVEL ENERGY AS WELL. MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY DON'T
LOOK QUITE AS GOOD AS THEY DID ON YESTERDAY'S MODELS BUT STILL
ENOUGH FOR A SLIGHT CHANCE OF AFTERNOON CONVECTION IN THE MTNS.
COAST/VALLEYS STILL DEALING WITH NIGHT/MORNING MARINE LYR AND NOT
MUCH CHANGE IN DAYTIME HIGHS EXPECTED.

ON SATURDAY WE GET A LITTLE RIDGE POPPING UP THAT WILL WARM INLAND
AREAS UP BUT PROBABLY NOT MUCH CHANGE FOR THE COAST DUE TO THE
PERSISTANT ONSHORE FLOW AND MARINE LYR.

.LONG TERM (SUN-WED)...PRETTY QUIET NEXT WEEK WITH A SLIGHT WARMING
TREND FOR INLAND AREAS. WARMER COASTAL VALLEYS SHOULD BE CLOSE TO 90
EACH DAY WHILE INTERIOR MTNS AND ANTELOPE VALLEY WARM UP INTO THE
MID 90S. HOWEVER NOT MUCH CHANGE FOR THE COAST. SOME COOLING
EXPECTED THE LATTER HALF OF NEXT WEEK AS A WEAK TROF MOVES INTO THE
PAC NW.

&&

.AVIATION...10/1800Z...

AT 1539Z...THE MARINE INVERSION AT KLAX WAS BASED AT 2000 FEET. THE
TOP OF THE INVERSION WAS AT 3200 FEET WITH A TEMPERATURE OF 17
DEGREES CELSIUS.

SOME DEFINITE UNCERTAINTIES REGARDING MARINE CLOUD BEHAVIOR FOR THE
SHORT TERM. MODEL INPUT DOES HINT AT AN EDDY FORMING IN THE SANTA
BARBARA CHANNEL AND THE SAN-SBA GRADIENT TURNED SHARPLY NEGATIVE
WHICH WOULD EXPLAIN THE STRONG SOUTHEAST SURGE NOW AFFECTING THE
VENTURA AND SOUTH SANTA BARBARA COASTS WITH GUSTY WINDS AND RAPID
CLOUD DEVELOPMENT. THIS WILL TEND TO BE A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST
AND THE OVERALL TREND FOR THIS FORECAST WILL BE TO LOWER CEILINGS
AND DELAY CLEARING TIMES SOUTH OF POINT CONCEPTION.

NORTH OF POINT CONCEPTION...THE LOW CLOUDS HAVE CLEARED AND ARE NOT
FORECAST TO RETURN UNTIL LATER TONIGHT. HOWEVER IF THE EAST TO
SOUTHEAST SURGE SUCCEEDS IN ROUNDING POINT CONCEPTION AND PUSHES
NORTH ALONG THE CENTRAL COAST THEN THE MARINE CLOUDS WILL LIKELY
RETURN TO COASTAL TAFS ON THE CENTRAL COAST MUCH EARLIER.

KLAX...FAIRLY LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST AT 18Z. BASICALLY EXPECTING A
SCT V BKN AFTERNOON WITH MVFR CEILINGS. THERE IS A 50 PERCENT CHANCE
OF MARINE CLOUDS RETURNING FOR GOOD THIS EVENING BEFORE THE 06Z TIME
FRAME.

KBUR...FAIRLY LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST AT 18Z. THERE IS A 50 PERCENT
CHANCE OF SOME CLEARING THIS AFTERNOON.

&&

.MARINE...10/900 AM...

FOR THE OUTER WATERS...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IN NORTHWEST
WINDS REMAINING BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS THROUGH THE
WEEKEND. LOCAL GUSTS TO 25 KT WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING HOURS AROUND POINT CONCEPTION...BUT NOT WIDESPREAD
ENOUGH TO WARRANT ANY ADVISORIES.

FOR THE INNER WATERS...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS
REMAINING BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS THROUGH THE
WEEKEND.
