...FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 630 PM PDT THIS 
EVENING FOR NORTHEASTERN SAN DIEGO COUNTY...

At 546 PM PDT, Doppler radar is showing thunderstorms producing 
moderate to locally heavy rain across the warned area. Between 0.25 
and 0.5 inches of rain have fallen. Flash flooding is possible. 
Thunderstorms and heavy rain are expected to taper off this evening.

HAZARD...Life threatening flash flooding. Thunderstorms producing
         flash flooding.

SOURCE...Radar.

IMPACT...Life threatening flash flooding of creeks and streams,
         urban areas, highways, streets and underpasses.

Some locations that will experience flash flooding include...
  Borrego Springs, Borrego Palm Canyon, Hwy S22 Between Ranchita And 
  Borrego Springs, Ranchita, Hwy S22 Between Borrego Springs And 
  Imperial County Line, Los Coyotes Indian Reservation and Santa 
  Rosa Mountain.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood 
deaths occur in vehicles.

In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are 
potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded 
roads. Find an alternate route.

Remain alert for flooding even in locations not receiving rain. 
Arroyos, streams, and rivers can become raging killer currents in a 
matter of minutes, even from distant rainfall.

Move away from recently burned areas. Life-threatening flooding of 
creeks, roads and normally dry arroyos is likely. The heavy rains 
will likely trigger rockslides, mudslides and debris flows in steep 
terrain, especially in and around these areas.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Diego CA
209 PM PDT Wed Jun 22 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
An upper low will continue to draw mid level moisture northward
across the area through this evening with scattered showers and
isolated thunderstorms, focusing over the mountains and deserts.
Drying will occur on Thursday, but there will still be a slight
chance of thunderstorms over the mountains and deserts Thursday
afternoon. It will turn even drier Friday through Saturday along
with warming conditions. For Sunday into early next week, more
substantial moisture should remain to the east. However, there
could still be occasional minor intrusions of moisture for a
slight chance of afternoon thunderstorms in the mountains next
week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES...

-Forecast Highlights-

* Scattered monsoonal thunderstorms focusing mountains/deserts
* Thunderstorms most numerous this afternoon, much less Thursday
* Warming this weekend with temps 5-10 degrees above normal

Monsoon season 2022 has started out with a bang! Scattered
thunderstorms have impacts SoCal with lots of lightning being the
main impact. The thunderstorms were most numerous over Orange
County and across the San Bernardino County mountains and to the
high desert region this morning.

This afternoon, we are seeing the transition to a mountain and
desert focus with the sea breeze moving inland and clearing most
coast/valley locations from activity. The main concern for heavy
rainfall will be along the Peninsular south to north mountain
ranges paralleling storm vector winds. There continues to be a
marginal risk of damaging winds as well. This risk is highest over
the deserts where evaporation/downward momentum transport
potential is greatest.

Thunderstorms are forecast to wane this evening. An upper low off
Point Conception will start moving east over central California on
Thursday. West winds will lead to decreasing moisture over the
region. However, residual moisture will continue and could lead to
isolated thunderstorms over the mountains and deserts Thursday
afternoon. Am not expecting nearly the activity as we have seen
over the past 24 hours. In fact, coasts and valleys likely will
stay dry.

Friday through early next week will be dry along with warming
conditions as upper ridging builds in. This will push temps most
areas 5-10 degrees above normal with heat risk on the increase.
Current forecast has highs reaching into the lower 100s across
much of the Inland Empire and the high desert and to around 110
for the lower deserts. Lows will be above normal as well.

Depending on upper ridge placement next week, some return of
monsoonal moisture is possible which could lead to a few
thunderstorms over the mountains and deserts. This risk could
begin as early as Sunday, but more likely beginning on Monday and
could continue through Wednesday before the moisture likely
shifts east with dry weather favored for the latter half of next
week.

&&

.AVIATION...
222030Z....SCT CU/TCU near TSRA through this evening, primarily over
mountains and deserts. Bases near 10,000 FT MSL and tops to 30,000
FT MSL. through 03Z Thu. Vis locally reduced to 3-5 SM in stronger
SHRA/TSRA. Areas of MOD-STG up/downdrafts and LLWS vcty TSRA. Areas
west of the mountains SCT-BKN cigs 100-150 ft MSL. Moderate to high
confidence.

After 06Z Thu, mostly clear skies for all areas. Slight chance of
SCT CU/TCU developing with ISO TSRA possible again across the
mountain and desert areas 19Z Thu - 01Z Fri. Moderate confidence.

&&

.MARINE...
A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms possible the rest of
this afternoon. Any thunderstorms that form could produce gusty
winds, dangerous cloud-to-water lightning, and waterspouts. Breezy
onshore winds are expected with gusts near 20 knots each afternoon
and evening Thursday through Saturday across the outer waters.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
A weak upper level low pressure system will draw mid level
moisture northward across the area today with scattered showers
and isolated thunderstorms with the greater coverage north of San
Diego County. Thunderstorms will produce lightning strikes,
strong gusty winds and brief heavy downpours. The potential for
stronger thunderstorm wind gusts is greater at lower elevations
with the potential for brief heavy downpours greater in the
mountains. Even with the drying into Thursday, there could still
be enough residual moisture for a slight chance of showers and
thunderstorms in the mountains and deserts in the afternoon. Then
drier and more stable for Friday and Saturday.

&&

.SKYWARN...
Skywarn activation is not requested. However weather spotters are
encouraged to report significant weather conditions.
