What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this beach hazards statement went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Los Angeles, CA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this beach hazards statement went out at Jul 1, 11:51 AM PDT, 2 hours 17 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 1, 11:51 AM PDT, 2 hours 17 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA 1151 AM PDT Sun Jul 1 2018 .SYNOPSIS...01/152 AM. Moderate to strong onshore flow will keep temperatures at or slightly below seasonal normals through Wednesday with extensive low clouds and fog during the night and morning hours. From Thursday through next weekend, high pressure will strengthen over the area. This will bring very hot and dry conditions to the area with record temperatures possible on Friday and Saturday. && .SHORT TERM (TDY-TUE)...01/914 AM. ***UPDATE*** Short term forecast appears on track. The low clouds and fog are clearing rapidly in Los Angeles County and more slowly elsewhere. Things should clear to the coast in LA by 11 am and by 1 pm in other locations. Onshore winds should keep things reasonably cool for July 1st, with breezy conditions in Antelope Valley by the afternoon. ***From Previous Discussion*** Overall, 00Z models in good synoptic agreement through the period. At upper levels, ridge noses over the area today then retreats on Monday/Tuesday as trough develops over the West Coast. Near the surface, moderate to strong onshore flow will continue. Forecast-wise, nothing too exciting in the short term. Main story will continue to be the marine layer stratus. Currently, sounding data indicates marine inversion around 1500 to 2000 feet deep. Given the synoptic pattern, will anticipate a little deepening tonight/Monday and more deepening Monday night/Tuesday. So with continued moderate to strong onshore flow, low clouds will push well inland each night. Do not anticipate the inversion to be too strong, so clouds should dissipate most areas each afternoon. As for temperatures, the combination of lowering thicknesses/H5 heights and good onshore flow will result in a gradual cooling trend for all areas through Tuesday. Winds will not be too much of an issue. The moderate to strong onshore flow will generate gusty southwest winds across the mountains and Antelope Valley. However, any potential advisory level gusts will be very localized. .LONG TERM (WED-SAT)...01/148 AM. Overall, 00Z models continue to exhibit very good synoptic agreement through the period. At upper levels, ridge will build in from the east, peaking in strength on Friday and Saturday. Near the surface, onshore gradients will weaken through the period, actually turning weakly offshore Friday morning and Saturday morning. Forecast-wise, focus in the extended period will the heat. Wednesday should be slightly warmer most areas as thicknesses/H5 heights increase slightly and onshore flow/marine influence weakens. On Thursday, the warm up will begin in earnest with the area warming up 6-12 degrees over Wednesday's high temperatures. For Friday and Saturday, even warmer temperatures are expected with thickness and boundary layer temperatures peaking and weak offshore flow in the morning hours. On Friday and Saturday, many areas will have high temperatures in the 90s to lower 100s and several temperature records could be broken. Additionally, overnight low will be quite warm during this time. So, critical heat conditions will be possible Friday and Saturday and there may need to be some heat products issued for the area. A close second to the heat concerns will be the potential for gusty northerly winds, beginning Thursday evening and continuing through Saturday morning. Models continue to forecast an increase in northerly gradients, beginning Thursday evening and peaking in strength Friday evening. So, there is the potential for advisory level Sundowner winds across SBA county Thursday night/Friday morning. For Friday afternoon through Saturday morning, the Sundowner winds may be stronger across SBA county and advisory level northerly winds could develop through the Interstate 5 Corridor. Given the expected hot and dry conditions, there is the potential for critical fire weather conditions from Thursday evening through Saturday. && .AVIATION...01/1849Z. At 1700Z at KLAX, the marine layer was 1600 ft deep. The top of the inversion was around 4000 ft with a temp of 20C. Mostly clear skies across the area this afternoon, except for the South Coast and KSBA where MVFR cigs should linger through 23Z. Otherwise, MVFR/IFR cigs expected to return to coast and valleys overnight with lower cigs north of Point Conception. Moderate confidence in timing. 40% chance KPRB remains clear through the period. 20% chance of LIFR conds for KSBP and KSMX between 12Z-15Z Monday. KLAX...Moderate confidence in the 18Z TAF. VFR conds through early evening. Cigs are likely to return between 06-08Z. Clearing may be delayed by up to 2 hrs from taf time of 17Z. KBUR...Moderate confidence in the 18Z TAF.

Winds and seas are expected to remain below Small Craft Advisory levels through Wednesday. SCA winds are likely across the Outer Waters and possible for the Inner Waters north of Point Sal and the Western Santa Barbara Channel by Thursday evening. Gale force winds are likely for at least portions of the Outer Waters by Friday into next weekend. A long period south swell is expected to arrive across the coastal waters by Thursday and could lead to hazardous boating conditions near harbor entrances and jetties. && .BEACHES...01/256 AM. A long period southerly swell originating from increasing tropical activity in the Eastern Pacific may bring high surf and strong rip currents focused across exposed south facing beaches of southwest California as early as Wednesday evening and possibly continuing through Friday or Saturday. A short period, locally generated northwest swell may add to the potentially dangerous surf conditions, especially across west and northwest facing beaches. && .FIRE WEATHER...01/1055 AM. A significant heat wave is projected to affect Southwest California Thursday through Sunday bringing a prolonged period of elevated fire weather conditions to Southwest California. The peak heat of the heat wave is expected to be Friday into Saturday, when record breaking triple digit heat will be possible across many inland areas. In fact, warmest valley, lower mountain, and desert areas could soar to between 105 and 110 degrees on Friday and Saturday, while portions of the LA basin and SBA south coast could approach 100 degrees due to a northerly offshore wind component. This heat wave will be accompanied with very low humidities, with the potential for widespread single digit humidities Friday into Saturday. In addition, there will likely be very poor overnight humidity recoveries across the mountains and foothills during this event. Gusty northerly winds are also expected across the mountains, select valleys, as well as the Santa Barbara south coast, possibly resulting in critical fire weather conditions. The strongest northerly winds are expected Thursday night into Friday morning and again Friday night into Saturday morning when both LAX- Bakersfield and Santa Barbara- Bakersfield gradients peak around -6 mb. This could result in wind gusts up to 45 mph across the Santa Ynez mountains and adjacent foothills, as well as the Interstate 5 corridor of the Los Angeles county mountains. These gusty northerly winds will add to the threat of large fires, bringing the potential for critical fire weather conditions. && .LOX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CA...NONE. PZ...NONE. && .HAZARD POTENTIAL OUTLOOK (TUE-SAT). Areas of excessive heat, primarily through the Los Angeles County valleys, are possible Friday and Saturday as strong high pressure builds over the Desert Southwest. Additionally, there may be advisory-level northerly winds on Thursday and Friday nights through southern Santa Barbara County and the I-5 corridor. && PUBLIC...Thompson/jld AVIATION...Smith MARINE...Munroe/Smith BEACHES...Munroe FIRE...Gomberg SYNOPSIS...RAT weather.gov/losangeles
