Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Francisco Bay Area
131 PM PDT TUE MAY 24 2016

.SYNOPSIS...Showers and potentially an isolated thunderstorm or
two will be possible over the inland hills/mountains through this
evening. Otherwise, temperatures will remain seasonably cool
through Wednesday with diminishing chances of showers. A gradual
warming and drying trend is then slated for the remainder of the
week and into the upcoming weekend.

&&

.DISCUSSION...as of 01:30 PM PDT Tuesday...Shower activity
showing up on KMUX Radar this afternoon, mainly over the higher
elevations of the Central Coast, far East Bay Hills/Mountains and
extreme northern portion of Napa County. Given the cool air mass
aloft, cannot rule out an isolated thunderstorm or two through the
early evening that may produce small hail. Area reporting gauges
do indicate brief moderate to locally heavy rainfall associated
with these showers. Otherwise, most of the major urban areas will
remain dry through the remainder of the day.

The broad mid/upper level trough and associated low pressure system
aloft will begin to slowly shift eastward, away from the region on
Wednesday. However, do expect low clouds to once again impact the
region overnight into Wednesday morning with the possibility of
patchy drizzle along the coast. Temperatures on Wednesday may warm
by a few degrees region-wide, yet will likely remain below seasonal
averages for one more day due to the proximate of the exiting
mid/upper level low. In addition, shower activity will be less
likely and more remote tomorrow afternoon, yet not completely out of
the question. For now, the best chance of any shower development on
Wednesday will be confined to the northeast portions of the North
Bay.

As the upper level trough ejects eastward into the Plains late in
the week, mid/upper level high pressure will build over the Eastern
Pacific. This will result in a gradual warming and drying trend
through the upcoming weekend. Daytime temperatures will likely
rebound back into the 70s to lower 80s inland while coastal
locations remain in the 60s to lower 70s. The warmer and drier
conditions will likely extended into early next week.

&&

.AVIATION...as of 10:19 AM PDT Tuesday...Tricky forecast the next
hour or two as morning stratus erodes and afternoon strato cu
develops. For the most part, MVFR transitioning to VFR in the
18-19z time frame. Expecting mostly VFR this afternoon with
elevated cu, but cigs may be borderline MVFR/near 3K feet. Moist
low level will allow for MVFR cigs tonight with a few pockets of
IFR conditions.

Vicinity of KSFO...Transition period as blue skies are starting
to show up on airport cams and visible satellite. Pushed clearing
for KSFO until 18z, but it will likely be a dirty clearing with
lingering clouds. KOAK will hold onto cigs slightly longer. VFR
this afternoon, but cannot rule out a passing BKN030 from time to
time. MVFR cigs develop overnight.

SFO Bridge Approach...Similar to KSFO. However, far southern end
of approach will see even less clouds in the short term.

Monterey Bay Terminals...Lingering MVFR cigs from 18-19z. Strato
cu this afternoon. MVFR cigs return again tonight.

&&

.MARINE...as of 08:43 AM PDT Tuesday...Light to moderate winds and
small seas will persist today. Winds will increase tonight and
Wednesday as high pressure builds over the region. The winds will
be strongest north of Point Reyes.

&&

.MTR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
     .Tngt...SCA...Pt Arena to Pigeon Pt 10-60 nm from 3 AM
             SCA...SF Bay until 9 PM
