Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA
448 PM PST Tue Dec 28 2021
Updated Aviation Discussion
.SYNOPSIS...28/120 PM.
A wet weather pattern with rain, wind, and mountain snow will
reestablish Wednesday through Thursday, especially in the San
Gabriel Mountains and Los Angeles County. Temperatures will
remain significantly below average. Dry weather is expected Friday
through the upcoming holiday weekend.
&&
.SHORT TERM (TDY-FRI)...28/202 PM.
Synoptically, there is a CONUS-spanning trough centered over
Montana. Northwest flow will push a series of impulses down the
west side of this feature over the next few days. The strongest
will be coming from the British Columbia coast and arrive
Wednesday, develop into a cut-off low somewhere near Point
Conception, and then move southward to Baja. There remains
uncertainty with the exact timing and location of this transition
to a cut-off and as this transition will slow the system for
several hours it is during this time that the bulk of the
precipitation will fall. Right now that looks to be over Los
Angeles County on Wednesday through Thursday morning.
Widely scattered showers fell throughout the area this morning
with less than one tenth of an inch recorded. There is increasing
cloudiness in San Luis Obispo County beginning in advance of a
minor trough that will bring more showers to tonight through
Wednesday in SLO County. Temperatures in the coasts and valleys
remain about 10-15 degrees below normal and high temperatures in
the 50s will be the rule for the next 7 days.
Wednesday morning the main weather-producing trough will be
swinging through central California and there will be widespread
rain south of it and through all four of our counties. The trough
will dig south through Thursday morning, cutting off from the
flow near Point Conception. High PoPs remain in the forecast as
all ensemble members indicate rain developing across the region.
QPF amounts with this storm will range from 0.50 to 1.00 inch for
areas north of Point Conception. WPC has issued a slight risk area
for excessive rainfall for Wednesday and Wednesday night for
eastern Los Angeles County.
Model solutions suggest a southwesterly, upslope flow pattern
developing across Los Angeles, Orange, and San Bernardino
Counties. Because the system will pause during the transition to
the cutoff low the QPF amounts trend higher as one moves south of
Point Conception from the Santa Barbara South Coast and into
Ventura and Los Angeles Counties, unlike most winter storms that
tend to bring the higher amounts to the north. Higher resolution
model output suggests the focus of the precipitation in our area
will be over the San Gabriel Range. Currently have QPF values of
1.00 to 3.00 inches for the coast and valleys with around 1.50 to
2.00 inches in the Santa Barbara and Ventura County Mountains.
Amounts trend higher in the Los Angeles mountains closer to 2.00
to 5.00 inches in the San Gabriel Range.
There is still much uncertainty with the timing and amounts with
this system, but residents of the recently burned area in Los
Angeles County should monitor the latest forecasts as USGS
thresholds for mud and debris flow could be met with if the right
ingredients come together. That would probably take a thunderstorm
as the peak rainfall rates are only forecast to be 0.5-0.75
inches per hour. There is less than a 15% chance of thunder but it
is possible on Wednesday and rainfall rates would increase in a
thunderstorm.
Snow levels will start out around 3000 to 3500 feet today but
will lift through Wednesday morning to between 4500 and 5000 feet.
Precipitation with a weak boundary will spread over the area
beginning tonight and increase the potential for snowfall. A
Winter Storm Watch was added for the Santa Barbara, Ventura, and
Los Angeles County mountains. The greatest potential for heavy
snowfall is for the San Gabriel Range Wednesday and Wednesday
night, but there is still a possibilty of 6-12 inches for the
Santa Barbara and Ventura County mountains. Local amounts up to 18
inches is possible along favored south-facing slopes of the
mountains. The San Gabriel Range will be a different story.
Snowfall totals above 5000 feet could range between 12 and 36
inches with this storm. Local amounts up to 48 inches are
possible.
Of note is the wraparound potential with this system. Pattern
recognition continues to indicate the possibility of wraparound
precipitation as the 500 mb trough center scrapes Point
Conception. Wraparound precipitation could develop on Thursday and
possibly affect the Antelope Valley and develop a 'wet' Santa Ana
pattern for the coastal and valley areas of Los Angeles and
Ventura Counties. This will need to be monitored closely as EPS
ensemble members suggest accumulating snowfall for Palmdale.
Deterministic solutions of the GFS and ECMWF introduce a window
where snow could fall, but the other members seems to indicate a
higher potential.
Shower chances will trend downward on Friday as the trough exits
the region and offshore flow develops.
.LONG TERM (SAT-TUE)...28/207 PM.
A warming and drying trend will develop Saturday and Sunday will
likely be the warmest of the next seven as heights rise to 576 dam
and weak offshore flow persists. There are a few EPS solutions
that suggest moderately gusty Santa Ana winds could develop.
Some model solutions indicate an atmospheric river north of the
area between the 3rd and 4th. There is an impressive 130-kt jet
associated with this feature. Ensemble solutions are consolidating
the possibility of precipitation in our area around Tuesday, January
4th.

Tstms 30/00-06Z. Moderate confidence in east wind component being
at least 8 kt by 10z and continuing through 15z, then increasing
