SMITH/GOMBERG

SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
1008 AM PST THU JAN 28 2016

.SYNOPSIS...

WEAK OFFSHORE FLOW WILL BRING SUNNY AND WARM CONDITIONS THROUGH
FRIDAY. SATURDAY...  A WEAK TROUGH WILL CAUSE TEMPERATURES TO COOL
AND BRING A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR RAIN. SUNDAY... A COLD FRONT WILL
BRING WIDESPREAD RAIN TO THE AREA.RAIN LINGERS MONDAY IN SOME AREAS
BEFORE BECOMING MOSTLY DRY. PERIODS OF HIGH SURF ARE EXPECTED
THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY. DRY AND MILD CONDITIONS WILL RETURN TUESDAY
AND WEDNESDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-SATURDAY)...ABOVE NORMAL DAYTIME TEMPS TO
CONTINUE THROUGH FRIDAY AS OFFSHORE FLOW CONTINUES. HIGHS IN THE 70S
AT LOWER ELEVATIONS AND 50S/60S IN THE MOUNTAINS AND AV.

MODELS HOLDING ONTO THEIR RESPECTIVE BIASES FOR THE WEEKEND STORM.
AND NOW THAT IT'S ENTERED THE NAM WINDOW WE SEE THAT AT LEAST SO FAR
THE NAM IS VERY CLOSE TO THE DRIER EC SOLUTION AS THE SYSTEM TAKES
MORE OF A NORTHERLY TRACK. LOOKING AT THE MOD TRENDS GRAPHICS WHICH
DEPICTS TRENDS IN THE GFS OVER THE LAST 10 MODEL RUNS IT CLEARLY
SHOWS A TREND IN THIS DIRECTION AS WELL WITH HIGHER HEIGHTS OVER THE
ERN PAC AND LOWER HEIGHTS ACROSS NV/NM. THIS WOULD FAVOR LESS RAIN
BUT VERY WINDY AND IT APPEARS THE WIND MAY BE THE BIGGEST IMPACT
WITH THIS SYSTEM, ESPECIALLY LATE SUNDAY INTO MONDAY. MODELS SHOW A
130-150KT NORTHWEST-SOUTHEAST ORIENTED JET JUST OFFSHORE AND A VERY
STRONG ONSHORE FLOW AT THE SURFACE. STRONG ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS AT
LEAST AND LIKELY WARNING LEVEL IN THE MTNS AND AV.

***FROM PREVIOUS DISCUSSION***

THERE WILL BE INCREASING NORTHWEST TO NORTH WINDS DEVELOPING ACROSS
THE I-5 CORRIDOR AND THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE ANTELOPE VALLEY THIS
EVENING. WINDS WILL THEN TURN MORE NORTHERLY AND SPREAD SOUTH INTO
THE SANTA CLARITA...SAN FERNANDO VALLEYS AS WELL AS THE SANTA MONICA
MOUNTAINS OVERNIGHT. THERE WILL BE SOME NORTHERLY WINDS AFFECTING
WEST L.A. AS WELL. WINDS OVERALL WILL REMAIN BELOW WIND ADVISORY
THRESHOLDS. MOUNTAINS AND THE ANTELOPE VALLEY COULD SEE LOCAL GUSTS
TO 45 MPH.

NOT MUCH CHANGE TO THE PATTERN ON FRIDAY. NORTH TO NORTHWEST WINDS
WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS IN TO FRIDAY MORNING. EXPECT
SIMILAR HIGH TEMPS AND MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES...EXCEPT FOR SOME VARIABLE
HIGH CLOUDS MOVING THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA. THERE COULD BE SOME
PATCHY DENSE FOG DEVELOPING AROUND THE CENTRAL COAST LATE TONIGHT
INTO FRIDAY MORNING. HIGHS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN IN THE LOWER TO
MID 70S FOR COASTAL AND VALLEY AREAS. THE RIDGE WILL FLATTEN OUT
DURING THE AFTERNOON ALLOWING THE SUB- TROPICAL JET TO SAG A BIT
FURTHER SOUTH DURING THE DAY. THE NRN PART OF THE STATE WILL
EXPERIENCE RAINY CONDITIONS.

BY SATURDAY THE UPPER LVL JET BECOMES MORE ZONAL AND AIMED JUST
NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. HIGH TEMPS WILL BE BETWEEN 4 TO 8
DEGREES COOLER ACROSS THE REGION. A FEW SHOWERS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS
SLO/SBA COUNTIES ON SATURDAY...WITH RAIN BE COMING WIDESPREAD ACROSS
THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. STILL
SOME MINOR TIMING AND STORM INTENSITY INCONSISTENCIES BETWEEN MODEL
RUNS.

.LONG TERM (SUN-WED)...BOTH THE GFS AND EUROPEAN MODELS ARE NOW
COMING INTO BETTER AGREEMENT THAT A FAIRLY SIGNFICANT STORM SYSTEM
WILL MOVE INTO THE FORECAST AREA BY SATURDAY NIGHT. THE STORM WILL
REACH SLO/SBA COUNTIES SATURDAY NIGHT...THEN OVERSPREAD THE ENTIRE
FORECAST AREA BY SUNDAY MORNING. THE SUBTROPICAL JET SAGS SOUTH INTO
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. A 150 KT WEST-EAST JET
CORE MOVES OVER LA-SBA COUNTIES. THE FRONT LEFT EXIT REGION WILL BE
IN AN IDEAL POSITION FOR ADDITIONAL DIVERGENCE ALOFT CAUSING RAIN TO
BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES SUNDAY MORNING INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON. EXPECT
HIGHER INTENSE RAINFALL RATES OVER SLO/SBA COUNTEIS EARLY...THEN
SPREAD INTO L.A. AND VENTURA COUNTIES LATE SUNDAY MORNING AND
AFTERNOON HOURS. THERE COULD BE SOME FLASH FLOOD ISSUES WITHIN THE
HIGHER INTENSE RAINFALL RATES FOR RECENT BURN AREAS. ALSO...THE
COMBINATION OF HIGH SURF COULD CAUSE SOME COASTAL FLOODING...BEACH
EROSION AND EVEN SOME PROPERTY DAMAGE....ESPECIALLY ON SUNDAY. SNOW
LEVELS WILL START OUT HIGH AROUND 6000 FEET...THEN DROP LIKE A ROCK
TO BETWEEN 3500-4000 FT BY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING. THERE
COULD BE SOME HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS THROUGH THE I-5 CORRIDOR
AND HIGHWAY 14 THROUGH THE ACTON AREA SUNDAY NIGHT DUE TO BLOWING
SNOW AND ICY CONDITIONS. AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE EVENT...NON ROUTINE
PRODUCTS WILL LIKLEY NEED TO BE ISSUED FOR THE SNOW AND POTENTIAL
FLOODING. THERE COULD BE SOME ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE
FRONTAL PASSAGE AS WELL. NOT SEEING MUCH WIND VEERING WITH HEIGHT
WITHIN THE BOTTOM 3KM...SO NOT ANTICIPAITNG ANY BRIEF SMALL
TORNADOES. MAYBE SOME ISOLATED WATERSPOUTS WILL BE POSSIBLE.

AT THIS TIME IT LOOKS LIKE COAST AND VALLEYS COULD RECIEVE BETWEEN
.50 AND 1.5 INCHES OF RAINFALL...WITH FOOTHILLS AND MOUNTAINS
BETWEEN .75 TO 3 INCHES. SNOWFALL BETWEEN 1 AND 2 FEET POSSIBLE
ABOVE 6000 FT...WITH LESSER AMOUNTS TO 3500 FT.

THIS WILL BE A RELATIVELY FAST MOVING SYSTEM WITH MOST OF THE RAIN
OUT OF THE AREA BY MONDAY MORNING...EXCEPT FOR SOME RESIDUAL SHOWERS
OVER L.A COUNTY AND NRN VENTURA COUNTY MTNS.

HIGH TEMPS WILL BE MUCH COOLER ON SUNDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 50S
AND LOWER 60S FOR MOST COAST AND VALLEYS....AND COOLER FOR INTERIOR
AREAS...AND MUCH COLDER IN THE MOUNTAINS. THIS COOL PATTERN WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THERE WILL BE BROAD NW FLOW ALOFT
KEEPING TEMPS COOLER THAN NORMAL THROUGH AT LEAST TUESDAY...WITH
SOME WARMING ON WEDNESDAY. A WEAK IMPULSE COULD WORK ITS WAY DOWN
TOWARDS SLO COUNTY WED MORNING...BUT THAT WOULD BE A LONG SHOT AT
THIS TIME.

&&

.AVIATION...28/1800Z.

MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WEST OF THE AREA WILL SHIFT
EAST. UPPER LEVEL MODERATE NORTHWEST WINDS WILL BECOME STRONG
NORTHWEST BY 29/19Z WHILE MID LEVEL LIGHT NORTH WINDS BECOME
MODERATE BY 29/07Z. A MODERATE NORTHERLY PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL
PERSIST.

MARINE LAYER AT LAX AT 1700Z IS NONE.

KLAX...CURRENT SKY/VSBY CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY PERSIST.

KBUR...CURRENT SKY/VSBY CONDITIONS WILL VERY LIKELY PERSIST.

VIRTUALLY CERTAIN - 95-100%
VERY LIKELY       - 80-95%
LIKELY            - 60-80%
CHANCE            - 30-60%
VERY UNLIKELY     - 20% OR LESS

&&

.MARINE...28/900 AM

SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR HAZARDOUS SEA CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY EXIST
LATER THIS MORNING FROM PIEDRAS BLANCAS TO NORTH OF SAN NICOLAS AS A
WEST-NORTHWEST SWELL IN THE OFFSHORE WATERS ADVANCES INTO THE NEAR
SHORE WATERS. SEAS WILL LIKELY PERSIST 10 FEET OR HIGHER THROUGH
MONDAY. THERE IS A CHANCE NORTHWEST WINDS WILL INCREASE WITH SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS IN THE VICINITY OF THE NORTHERN CHANNEL
ISLANDS EACH AFTERNOON AND PERSIST THROUGH EARLY THE NEXT MORNING
TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY. NORTHWEST GALES ARE LIKELY OVER THE ENTIRE
AREA SUNDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH MONDAY.

&&

.BEACHES...28/900 AM

THERE IS A CHANCE HIGH SURF ADVISORY CONDITIONS WILL DEVELOP IN THE
VICINITY OF VENTURA HARBOR AND THE SANTA MONICA SOUTH BAY TODAY BUT
