eastward. An upper level low that was over Monterey County this
morning is forecast to move quickly s today, reaching the vicinity
Point Conception by late this afternoon then move well s of the area
by late this evening. It looks like the upper low will have enough
moisture and instability to bring the possibility of showers this
afternoon into this evening not only over the mtns and Antelope Vly
but also s and w of the mtns from SLO County thru L.A. County. The
very slim possibilty of a thunderstorm cannot be entirely ruled out
later today or early this evening as well over the eastern L.A.
County mtns or foothills. Will update the zones this morning to add
a slight chance of showers this afternoon and evening for portions
of the forecast area s and w of the mtns.
Otherwise, partly to mostly cloudy skies today and this evening
should become clear to partly cloudy later tonight as a drier
northerly flow sets in across the region, altho some clouds should
linger in the Antelope Vly.
As the upper low moves s thru tonight, a strong and gusty n to ne
flow is expected to develop from the mtns to lower elevations from
the SBA County mtns and s coast thru VTU/L.A. Counties. The 12Z NAM
was forecasting 850 mb winds to increase to 45 to 50 kt by late
tonight, with winds likely reaching high wind warning criteria of
gusts to 60 mph over the VTU/L.A. County mtns later tonight into Sun
morning. So will be issuing a high wind watch for this area with the
morning zone update. Winds at the 950 mb level on the 12Z NAM top
out at 30 KT over srn VTU County, which should translate into wind
gusts 45 to 50 mph for the Santa Monica Mtns. Winds in the Santa
Clarita Vly should also gust 45 to 50 mph at times, with gusts up to
40 mph for the VTU County vlys and San Fernando Vly. The SBA County
s coast and mtns are also expected to have gusty winds this evening,
with gusts 35 to 40 mph expected. Wind advisories will be likely
issued on the afternoon zone package for the vlys of L.A./VTU
Counties except the San Gabriel Vly, as well as the Santa Monica
Mtns.
Upper level ridging is forecast to build into central CA on Sun,
then into swrn CA for the most part on Mon. Offshore flow mainly
night and morning hours will bring mostly clear skies to the
forecast area Sun thru Mon. Winds will continue gusty Sun night into
Mon morning, but they should be generally below advisory levels.
Temps across the region will be 4 to 8 deg below normal today, then
warm to near normal to several degrees above normal Sun, and to
about 3 to 10 deg above normal on Mon. Highs in the warmest coast
and vlys should reach the low to mid 60s today, lower 70s on Sun,
and mid to upper 70s on Mon.
***FROM PREVIOUS DISCUSSION***
.LONG TERM...(TUE-FRI)
Not Much change for Tuesday and Wed. The ridge will stay in place
and max temps will remain above normal. The GFS shows a little
burst of offshore winds on Wednesday which results in a 3 to 5
degree warm up for the coasts and vlys. It could happen but would
not be surprised if this feature is not in tonight's runs.
Another storm will approach the area Thursday. Current mdls
suggest that this storm will move through the area Thursday night
and early Friday. Yesterday this storm was forecast to be stronger
than average. Today the mdls have backed off and the storm looks
pretty run of the mill. Day seven forecasts are meant to change
and would not be surprised to see a different soln for this system
with tonight's runs.
