AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
1025 AM PDT SAT APR 16 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
Well above normal temperatures are expected this weekend as high
pressure builds into the Great Basin and gusty north winds shift
to the northeast. A gradual cooling trend is expected next week as
high pressure weakens and a trough of low pressure develops, but
temperatures will remain above normal through mid week.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TDY-MON)

Sunny skies covered the forecast area this morning...which
will continue through the rest of today thanks to dry offshore flow.
Winds in the L.A./VTU County mtns are generally below advisory
levels at mid morning, with the highest gust of 54 mph at Chilao
RAWS. However, occasional gusts to near 60 mph cannot be ruled out
into late this morning, so the High Wind Warning will continue over
the mtns til noon. Some gusts to advisory levels linger in the vlys
as well, so the Wind Advisories there will also remain in effect
until noon. Winds will continue this afternoon, but should remain
generally below advisory levels in all areas. Temps today are
forecast to warm to well above normal levels, about 5 to 15 deg
above normal. The warmest valleys are expected to warm into the
upper 80s to around 90 this afternoon.

An upper level ridge just off the CA cst will gradually build e thru
tonight, with the ridge axis moving into the state Sun thru Mon. The
upper ridge will bring unseasonably warm conditions with clear skies
to the forecast area thru the period.

Support for ne winds to increase to advisory level is in place for
tonight into Sun morning. The 12Z NAM was forecasting 850 mb winds
increasing to 40 to 45 kt later tonight into Sun morning. 950 mb
winds peak out around 30 kt over southern VTU County into the Santa
Monica Mtns. Wind gusts in the L.A./VTU mtns are expected to be
around 45 to 50 mph, while the Santa Monica Mtns should have gusts
up to 45 mph, and the VTU County vlys, Santa Clarita Vly and San
Fernando Vly should have gusts up to 40 mph. As a result, wind
advisories will be issued for these areas with the afternoon zone
package. The support for gusty ne winds decreases for Sun night into
Mon morning as the upper ridge moves overhead. There will still be
some gusts approaching advisory levels at times, especially in the
mtns and foothills of VTU/L.A. County, otherwise winds will be
largely below advisory levels.

Temps across the region will remain well above normal Sun and Mon,
with Sun being the warmest day. Highs on Sun will run about 10 to 20
deg above normal in many areas, with highs in the warmest vlys
reaching the lower 90s. Temps will turn slightly cooler on Mon but
still be 5 to 15 deg above seasonal norms for most areas. The
immediate coast will cool the most due to an earlier onset of the
seabreeze, especially along the central coast.

***FROM PREVIOUS DISCUSSION***

.LONG TERM...(TUE-FRI)

An upper low moving through the Pacific will move toward the
West Coast Tuesday, the it will open up and lift northeastward
toward Northern California tuesday night and Wednesday. This will
cause the upper ridge across the area to flatten out and shift
eastward. Heights and thicknesses will fall, and weak offshore
flow Tuesday morning will become onshore Tuesday afternoon.
Onshore flow should increase on Wednesday. This will all result in
some cooling each day, especially west of the mountains, although
temperatures should still be above normal in most areas through
Wednesday. Clouds could return to coastal sections as early as
Tuesday night. Models show significant differences in the upper
pattern for Thursday and Friday. The EC shows an upper low moving
into northern Baja late Thursday, with a potent upper low
approaching central California Thursday night and Friday. The GFS
is much weaker with the more southerly upper low and is weaker and
much farther north with the second feature. While the EC suggests
rain by Friday morning or afternoon, the GFS is totally dry. Based
shows the second upper low. Since this wet solution is rather new,
and given the dry character of this past winter, have decided to
go with the dry GFS for now. It certainly bears watching, as the
EC suggests a fairly decent rain event late Friday through
Saturday.

&&

.AVIATION...16/1800Z.

Mid/upper level ridge of high pressure will build over the area. Upper
level moderate to strong northwest winds will become moderate
west-northwest after 17/13z and mid level moderate north-northeast
winds will prevail. Mixed weak to moderate onshore and moderate
northeasterly pressure gradient through 17/03z and after 17/19z
otherwise moderate northeasterly gradient.

Marine layer at LAX at 1500Z is none.

KLAX...Virtually certain current sky/vsby conditions will
persist. surface winds will shift to northeast after 17/10z and
very unlikely 8kt or greater through 17/19z but 08013kt at 005
between 17/13-17/17z.

KBUR...Virtually certain current sky/vsby conditions will
persist. Chance LLWS through 16/21z.

virtually certain - 95-100%
very likely       - 80-95%
likely            - 60-80%
chance            - 30-60%
very unlikely     - 20% OR LESS

&&

.MARINE...16/900 AM.

West-northwest winds will develop and increase and there is a
chance small craft advisory conditions will exist over the Santa
Monica and San Pedro basins this afternoon through the evening.
Northeast winds are expected to develop and increase Sunday
morning and there is a chance SCA conditions will develop over the
east portion of Santa Barbara basin. Otherwise combined seas with
northwest swell and locally generated northwest swell will subside
below 10 feet through the remainder of this morning. A swell from
290-300 degrees relative to Ventura coast was generated in the
west Pacific Tuesday and is expected to arrive tonight through
Sunday and not build over 10 feet.
