Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Francisco Bay Area
243 AM PDT Tue Jun 12 2018
.SYNOPSIS...Another warm day across the Bay Area, especially over
inland areas as high pressure builds over California. A cooling
trend is likely late in the week with increasing onshore flow as a
mid to upper level trough moves in from the northwest.
&&
.DISCUSSION...as of 2:43 AM PDT Tuesday...Overnight satellite
imagery depicts mostly clear skies around the Bay Area. Low clouds
that dissipated after sunset are having a hard time reforming.
The one exception is near Point Arena and over the coastal
waters. Latest hi-res models show some patchy coastal clouds
developing around sunrise. Updated the near term forecast to cut
back on clouds, but still allow for some clouds along the coast.
The N-S gradient along coast is still greater than 6mb, which is
likely limiting stratus development.
The bigger story for today will be one more day of heat for the
interior. High pressure anchored over New Mexico extending
westward into California will bring another hot day across the
interior. Similar to yesterday, highs will be in the 80s and 90s
with a few spots approaching 100 deg deep interior. From a heat
risk standpoint, it is a relatively low risk with some pockets of
moderate. Much cooler temps along the coast with highs in the 60s
and 70s. Breezy conditions possible again this afternoon with
continued onshore flow.
Wednesday will be a transitional day as high pressure begins to
weaken and retreat eastward as an upper level trough develops over
the West Coast. Temperatures will begin to cool a few degrees
across the interior on Wednesday, but remain in the 80s and 90s.
More widespread cooling is expected on Thursday and into the
weekend as the upper trough is parked over the region. In addition
to the upper trough an upper low is forecast to drop southward
into the Great Basin bringing a re-enforcing shot of colder air
this weekend. 850 mb temps drop by 10C this weekend. The cooler
airmass will put high temps into the 60s and 70s with a few
interior 80s...or about 5-10 degs below normal. Temperatures begin
to rebound slightly early next weekend with warming 850mb temps
and building 500 mb heights.
&&
.AVIATION...As of 10:32 PM PDT Monday...For 06z tafs. Low clouds
have dissipated along the coast leaving clear skies across the
region. VFR conditions are expected through the period for most
sites. The only exception will be potential low cloud
redevelopment along the Monterey Peninsula overnight tonight. This
may bring MVFR/IFR conditions to KMRY and KSNS. Confidence on
cloud redevelopment is low. Winds have subsided for the evening
and will continue to ease overnight. Onshore winds will increase
again tomorrow afternoon.
Vicinity of KSFO...VFR. Gusty onshore winds have eased and are now
around 15 kt. Winds will continue to diminish overnight before onshore
winds will increase again by tomorrow afternoon.
SFO Bridge Approach...Similar to KSFO.
Monterey Bay Terminals...The low cigs hovering around the Monterey
Peninsula have dissipated. VFR conditions will prevail, although
the possibility of low clouds redeveloping at some point
overnight remains. For now kept IFR cigs in the 06z tafs but
delayed the onset. Generally light winds will continue through the
period.
&&
.MARINE...as of 08:44 PM PDT Monday...Moderate to locally strong
northwest winds will persist through at least mid-week as surface
high pressure sits over the eastern Pacific. Strongest winds will
continue to occur along the Big Sur coast where gale force gusts
are expected, especially around Point Sur. Moderate to strong
winds will produce steep wind waves resulting in hazardous sea
conditions, particularly for small vessels. The long period
southerly swell will begin to subside in both magnitude and period
overnight.
