AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
1055 AM PST SUN FEB 7 2016

...NEW AVIATION/MARINE DISCUSSIONS...

.SYNOPSIS...

HIGH PRESSURE AND GUSTY OFFSHORE WINDS WILL BRING WELL ABOVE
NORMAL TEMPERATURES WITH POSSIBLE RECORD TEMPERATURES THROUGH
EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE HIGH WILL WEAKEN TOWARDS THE END OF THE WEEK
FOR A COOLING TREND...HOWEVER TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN ABOVE
NORMAL.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(SUN-WED) UPDATE

SYNOPTICALLY...A HIGH AMPLITUDE RIDGE WILL PERSIST ACROSS CALIFORNIA
AND WELL INTO THE PAC NW TODAY. THIS UPPER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE
INTO TUESDAY BEFORE THE RIDGE AXIS SHIFTS EAST AS ANOTHER UPPER
TROUGH MOVES CLOSER TO NRN CALIFORNIA. AT THE SURFACE...A STRONG
1043 MB HIGH IS EXPECTED LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO MONDAY MORNING.
THIS WILL CAUSE THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TO STRENGTHEN...CAUSING THE
STRONG SANTA ANA WINDS TO OCCUR. HIGH TEMPS WILL BE AROUND 80 FOR
COASTAL AND COASTAL VALLEYS TODAY...AND CONTINUE TO RISE THROUGH
TUESDAY INTO THE MID TO UPPER 80S...WITH A FEW 90 DEGREES POSSIBLE IN
SOME LOCATIONS. IT WILL REMAIN IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S FOR THE
ANTELOPE VALLEY THROUGH TUESDAY.

FORECAST IN GOOD SHAPE THIS MORNING. MADE A FEW ADJUSTMENTS TO HIGH
TEMPS ACROSS THE ANTELOPE VALLEY...BY COOLING A FEW DEGREES TODAY
AND MONDAY. ALSO INCREASED TODAY'S HIGH TEMPS ACROSS THE CENTRAL
COAST BY A COUPLE DEGREES IN A FEW LOCATIONS. OTHERWISE...FORECAST
IS IN GREAT SHAPE. THE FIRE WEATHER WATCH HAS BEEN UPGRADED TO A RED
FLAG WARNING FOR VENTURA AND LOS ANGELES COUNTIES EXCLUDING THE
ANTELOPE VALLEY BEGINNING AT 6 PM PST THIS EVENING AND CONTINUING
THROUGH 6 PM PST MONDAY EVENING. THIS WILL LINE UP WELL WITH OUR
CURRENT WIND ADVISORIES AND LATER THIS EVENING SOME HIGH WIND
WARNINGS THAT WILL BECOME VALID INCLUDING THE LOS ANGELES AND
VENTURA COUNTY MOUNTAINS INCLUDING THE SANTA MONICA RANGE...SANTA
CLARITA VALLEY AND THE COASTAL VENTURA VALLEY FROM SIMI VALLEY TO
NEWBURY PARK WHERE SUSTAINED WINDS WILL RANGE FROM 25 TO 40 MPH WITH
GUSTS BETWEEN 60 AND 70 MPH. OTHERWISE EXPECT STRONG ADVISORY LEVEL
WINDS FOR MOST OF THE OTHER LOCATIONS INCLUDING THE L.A. COAST
BETWEEN MALIBU AND THE HOLLYWOOD HILLS AND THE FOOTHILLS OF THE SAN
GABRIEL VALLEY. WINDS WILL PICK UP THIS EVENING WITH THE PEAK GUSTS
EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT INTO MONDAY EARLY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL THEN
DECREASE SOME...BUT REMAIN OFFSHORE. THE NAM-WRF CONTINUED TO SHOW
AROUND A -9 MB SFC GRADIENT BETWEEN LAX-DAG FOR EARLY MONDAY
MORNING. THERE WAS SOME MODEST UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT WITH THIS WIND
EVENT...BUT THERE WILL BE STRONG SUBSIDENCE WITH THIS WIND EVENT.

***FROM PREVIOUS DISCUSSION***

OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE A LITTLE TRICKY DUE TO THE WIND AND THE DRY
AIR/CLEAR SKIES. WIND SHELTERED AREAS WILL BE BELOW NORMAL AND
WINDY AREAS WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL. IT IS VERY POSSIBLE THAT SOME
AREAS WILL HAVE WIDELY DESPERATE MIN TEMPS WITHIN A MILE OF EACH
OTHER.

.LONG TERM...(THU-SUN)

THE RIDGE WILL WEAKEN BOTH THU AND FRI AND MAX TEMPS WILL FALL
EACH DAY BUT WILL STILL BE ABOVE NORMAL. MDLS NOW FORECASTING A
DRY TROF TO PASS OVERHEAD SAT AND SUN BUT WITH MINIMAL CLOUDS AND
NO RAIN. MAX TEMPS WILL CONTINUE TO FALL BUT WILL STILL BE 3 TO 6
DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL EVEN BY SATURDAY.

LONG RANGE XTND FCST MDLS CONTINUE TO INDICATE DRY CONDS UNTIL
NEAR THE END OF THE MONTH WITH A PATTERN SHIFT ARRIVING SOME TIME
AROUND THE FIRST OF MARCH.
