AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
712 PM PDT SAT MAY 14 2016

.SYNOPSIS...

The low will persist into Monday with breezy winds...near normal
temperatures and possible precipitation...that may linger in the
mountains on Tuesday afternoon. Then offshore flow will warm
Wednesday and Thursday to the hottest days of the week. A low
system may arrive by Friday for an increase in clouds and a
cooling trend for the weekend.

&&

.UPDATE...

A cool day today with most coast and vlys temps coming in 4 to 8
degrees below normal. The marine layer is about 1800 feet and is
capped by a moderate inversion. The major player today is the
onshore flow which is an impressive 9.3 mb onshore to KDAG at 00Z
with this strong an east push there was very slow to no clearing
across the LA and VTA beaches. A little weak trof mixed the marine
layer out across the central coast and it will be slower to
reform. There will be plenty of low clouds over the VTA and LA
coasts and vlys but the SBA south coast will stay predominately
cloud free as the sun downer will keep the low clouds at bay.

The wind advisories for the Antelope Valley and the SBA south
coast are not too well but the SBA winds will likely pick up in
a few hours and there will be some local advisory level winds in
the AV but the stronger winds will be tomorrow.

Overall the current fcst is in good shape and there are no updates
planned.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TDY-MON)

Upper level low currently moving eastward into Oregon and by
Sunday is centered over the Oregon/Idaho border. Around that time
it really becomes a split flow situation to stop its eastward
progression and the low begins to dig southward into Nevada over
the short term forecast. Models generally agree in placing the
center somewhere near Vegas on Tuesday. This trough pattern over
the west coast will result in little day to day changes through
the short term. Expect only minor fluctuations in the depth of the
marine layer and the extent of overnight/morning stratus. Onshore
pressure gradients will be strong enough to slow the pace of
afternoon clearing, with some immediate coastal areas staying in
the stratus through the afternoon. Northwest flow should help keep
the SBA coast clear at night. Had a few reports of drizzle in
Ventura County and overnight drizzle possibilities will continue
each night. Both the GFS and NAM swing a weak area of lift through
the area late tonight and tomorrow morning as the tail end of a
vort lobe around the upper low swings through. This may enhance
the chance of drizzle for tonight mainly over the LA County coast
and valleys. Decided to pull back on the slight chance of showers
in Los Angeles County coast and San Gabriel Valley for Sunday
afternoon/evening, keeping it instead limited to areas higher up
in the foothills.

High temperatures cool some on Sunday but in general will feel
the same. Models warm low levels a bit on Monday to bring a few
degrees warming mainly inland areas and a few degrees again on
Tuesday. Some far inland areas should even be back up above normal
for this time of year.

Winds will be an issue for the Antelope Valley and the Santa
Barbara south coast and adjacent foothills. Winds have been fairly
tame in the Antelope Valley so far but are expected to pick up
later this evening and stay elevated through Sunday night. For
winds in SBA County, gusty northwest winds will develop this
evening and again Sunday evening. Local numerical model indicates
stronger winds for Sunday evening. Another wind advisory will
likely be needed again for the same areas on Sunday night.

Have introduced a slight chance of showers over the eastern San
Gabriels for Tuesday afternoon/evening. With the position of the
closed upper low forecast to be near Vegas Tuesday, there could
be just enough instability and dynamics to produce some showers.
GFS and NAM both showing an area of negative lifted indicies along
with some CAPE. Moisture availability will be an issue however.

.LONG TERM...(TUE-FRI)

The closed upper low just to our NE is forecast to fill, open up,
and move east on Wednesday. Just enough in the way of height rises
to squeeze a few more degrees of warming Wednesday following
another night of coastal stratus (northwest flow should keep the
SBA south coast clear). Expecting above normal temperatures for
all but the immediate coast which will remain at or just below
normal.

By Thursday the next closed upper low forecast to dive down the
west coast will begin to increase our onshore pressure gradients,
thicken up the marine layer and stratus coverage, and start a
cooling trend that continues into Friday. The cooling will occur
first over inland areas Thursday then spread across the forecast
area Friday. Expect Saturday to be much the same as Friday as far
as marine layer and high temperatures. Some differences in the
east-west position of the low by 12z Saturday with the GFS along
the Oregon coast and the ECMWF further east over OR/ID border. But
this difference won't impact the forecast for this long term
period.

&&

.AVIATION...

14/0000Z

at 2330Z at KLAX the marine layer was 1800 feet deep. The top of
the inversion top was at 3900 feet with a temperature of 16
degrees celsius.

Only moderate confidence in TAFs as stratus arrival times will be
tricky and could be off by +/- 2 hours. Good confidence in burn
off times.

KLAX...Moderate confidence in TAF. There is a 30 percent chance
that cigs will remain at 015. There is a 20 percent chance of an
east wind component 8-9 knots from 10Z-15z. There is a 40 percent
chance of no clearing Sunday afternoon.

KBUR...Moderate confidence in TAF. Cigs could arrive anytime
between 0500Z and 0900Z. There is a 30 percent chc MVFR cigs will
last until 19Z.

&&

.MARINE...14/200 pM.

Northwest winds will continue to create small craft advisory
conditions from Piedras Blancas to San Nicolas island including
the west portion of the Santa Barbara basin through Monday night.
The strongest winds will likely occur in the vicinity of the
Northern Channel islands this afternoon. The Northwest winds will
increase to possible gale force from Piedras Blancas to San
Nicolas island Sunday afternoon and prevail through Monday
morning. Northwest winds are expected to increase Thursday from
Piedras Blancas to San Nicolas island and sca conditions are
likely.
