AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
1123 AM PST Sun Jan 8 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Partly to mostly cloudy skies with warmer temperatures expected
today. Late tonight into Monday a fast moving cold front will
bring a period of moderate to heavy rain to portions of southwest
California. Additional widespread rainfall is possible with a
cooler system late Tuesday into Wednesday. More rain is possible
later in the week with continued cool conditions.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TDY-TUE)

Overall, based on initial 12Z model guidance, forecast is still
very much on track this morning. Through this afternoon, partly to
mostly cloudy skies will prevail. With some sunshine and weak
offshore gradients, today will be a warmer day with some coastal
and valley areas climbing to around 70. Additionally there will be
some gusty southerly winds today, but any advisory-level winds are
expected to remain localized.

For this evening through Monday afternoon, potent cold front will
interact with a long plume of subtropical air to bring another
round of rain to the area. Rain will start across the Central
Coast this evening then move into Ventura county after midnight
and into Los Angeles county just in time for the Monday morning
commute with the front exiting Los Angeles county by Monday
afternoon. Behind the front, scattered showers will continue
through Monday evening. The front will be moving pretty quickly,
with a shorter duration of rainfall, but higher intensities.
Southerly flow ahead of the front will greatly enhance amounts on
south-facing slopes.

Rainfall totals are expected to be rather impressive. Totals will
range from 2-3 inches across San Luis Obispo county (with 4-6
inches near Rocky Butte), 1.5-3 inches across Santa Barbara
county, 1-2.5 inches across Ventura county and 0.75-2 inches
across Los Angeles county. Main issue to determine today will be
potential rainfall intensities. There is the possibility that
hourly rainfall rates could exceed 0.50 which could pose problems
to the recent burn areas. Will make decision about any possible
Flash Flood Watch for burn areas with the afternoon forecast. Snow
levels will still remain rather high, but some of the highest
elevations could receive an inch or two of snowfall.

On Tuesday, a moist westerly flow will keep the possibility of
some light precipitation just about anywhere across the district.
However by Tuesday evening, rain chances will be on the increase
across the Central Coast.

.LONG TERM...(WED-SAT)

Moist and somewhat unstable air will move across the area
Wednesday and will keep a decent chc of shower activity going
across the area for the entire day. Hgts will be in the chilly
558DM range which when coupled with the clouds and showers will
make for a chilly day with coast and vly temps struggling to reach
even 60 degrees or another way...max temps will be 8 to 12 degrees
blo normal.

On Thursday a trof (GFS) or a full blown upper low (EC) will move
down and over the state. The EC's soln is much wetter and more
dynamic. For now just just brought a chc of rain to the area and
will watch to see how this develops. Thursday looks to be the
coolest day of the week with max temps dropping another few
degrees from Wednesdays already chilly readings. Since it will be
such a cool day the snow levels will be quite low and the mountain
passes could be affected.

It looks like there will be some ridging on Friday and Saturday so
look for some sunshine finally will make it to the area along with
a warming trend.

&&

.AVIATION...08/1800Z.

At 1800Z at KLAX... there was no notable inversion.

Mostly VFR conditions today will be followed by increased MVFR and
IFR conditions tonight into Monday morning. The worsening
conditions will arrive on the central coast this evening and push
southeast into LA county by early Monday morning.

KLAX...Good confidence in 18z TAF. Increasing precipitation and
chances of east winds of 10 knots or more arrive early Monday
morning and last well into the afternoon before switching to the
SW late in the day. VFR conditions will transition to MVFR or IFR
early Monday morning.

KBUR...Good confidence in 18z TAF. Increasing precipitation
arrives early Monday morning along with IFR conditions.

&&

.MARINE...08/900 AM.

MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN WINDS INCREASING ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS TODAY
IN ADVANCE OF THE FRONTAL PASSAGE. LOWER CONFIDENCE IN WINDS REACHING
GALE FORCE IN THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL OUTER WATERS AND IN THE
NEARSHORE WATERS NORTH OF POINT CONCEPTION FOR MORE THAN A FEW
HOURS. MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WINDS OVER THE
WESTERN SBA CHANNEL AND SOUTH TO SAN NICOLAS ISLAND THROUGH THE
FRONTAL PASSAGE.

A STEEP, SHORT PERIOD SOUTH SWELL WILL BUILD THROUGH THE DAY AS
WELL AND PEAK ON MONDAY MORNING.

&&

.LOX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
CA...Coastal Flood Advisory in effect until 9 AM PST Monday for
      zones 34-35. (See LAXCFWLOX).
