***INCREASING RISK FOR HIGH END RED FLAG WARNING EVENT WITH
   DANGEROUS FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR PORTIONS OF LOS ANGELES
   AND VENTURA COUNTIES DUE TO STRONG SANTA ANA WINDS, VERY LOW
   HUMIDITY, AND CRITICALLY DRY FUELS***

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FOR LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA
COUNTY MOUNTAINS AND VALLEYS 10 AM MONDAY UNTIL 6 PM WEDNESDAY DUE
TO STRONG SANTA ANA WINDS AND VERY LOW HUMIDITIES...

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FOR VENTURA COUNTY COAST AND MALIBU
2 PM MONDAY UNTIL 2 PM WEDNESDAY DUE TO STRONG SANTA ANA WINDS AND
VERY LOW HUMIDITIES...

...FIRE WEATHER WATCH IN EFFECT FOR SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY
MOUNTAINS 10 PM MONDAY UNTIL 10 PM TUESDAY DUE TO GUSTY SOUTHEAST
TO EAST WINDS AND VERY LOW HUMIDITIES...

.DANGEROUS FIRE WEATHER EVENT BECOMING MORE LIKELY ACROSS 
PORTIONS OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES MONDAY INTO 
WEDNESDAY!!!

As surface high pressure builds into the Great Basin, Santa Ana winds are
expected to increase late Monday morning into afternoon, then peak Monday
night into Tuesday. Offshore winds are expected to diminish some by
Wednesday, but very dir will persist. With the strong likelihood of
widespread single digit humidities with this event, confidence is
increasing for a long duration Red Flag event. In addition, there is
the increasing potential for a high end Red Flag event across some of the
windiest areas Monday night through Tuesday, as damaging wind gusts
of 60 to 80 mph could overlap with single digit humidities across many of the
wind prone areas of Los Angeles and Ventura counties. With the threat of 
damaging wind gusts in these windier corridors, there will be an increased
risk for downed trees and powerlines, along with power outages. During the peak
of this event (Monday night into Tuesday), there will likely be strong offshore
pressure gradients, strong cold air advection from the interior, and
moderate upper level wind support. 

The hardest hit areas will likely be the San Gabriels, Santa Susanas, western
Santa Monicas into Malibu, Ventura county valleys (especially Simi Valley and
Moorpark), western San Fernando Valley (especially Highway 118/210 corridors
from Porter Ranch to San Fernando), and the hills above Camarillo into east
Ventura. Due to the expected long duration of dangerous fire weather conditions
and critically dry fuels, there is the increasing potential for any new ignitions
to have very rapid fire spread and extreme fire behavior (including long range
spotting). As a result, there is the increasing threat for fire weather conditions
to rival other historical fires in recent times including the Mountain and
Thomas Fires. Dry offshore conditions will likely persist into Thursday.

MOUNTAINS, SANTA SUSANA MOUNTAINS...

* WINDS...Santa Ana winds expected to increase sharply late 
  Monday morning into afternoon, then peak Monday night into 
  Tuesday. when speeds of 25 to 45 mph with gusts of 40 to 60 
  mph common. Some of the windier corridor will potentially see
  damaging wind gusts in the 60 to 80 mph range during the peak of
  the event Monday night into Tuesday. Some of the highest wind
  areas will likely be the San Gabriels, Santa Susanas, western
  Santa Monicas into Malibu, Ventura county valleys (especially Simi
  Valley and Moorpark), and western San Fernando Valley (especially
  Highway 118/210 corridors from Porter Ranch to San Fernando).
  Offshore winds are expected to diminish some by Wednesday, with
  gusts mostly in the 20 to 40 mph range.

* RELATIVE HUMIDITY...Humidities are expected to lower to around 
  15 percent in many areas by Monday afternoon or early evening,
  with widespread humidities of 5 to 10 percent likely later Monday
  evening into Tuesday, and persisting into Wednesday, with
  isolated readings as low as 2 percent likely.

* IMPACTS...If fire ignition occurs, conditions are favorable 
  for large fires with very rapid fire spread, extreme fire behavior,
  and long range spotting, which would threaten life and property.
  There is also the risk of damaging winds including trees and 
  power lines, as well as power outages.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions
are either occurring now, or will shortly. Use extreme caution
with anything that can spark a wildfire. Residents near wildland

***THIS IS A PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION (PDS) FOR MANY AREAS OF
LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES ***

A strong, widespread, and long duration Santa Ana event will bring
widespread extremely critical fire weather conditions to many areas 
of Los Angeles and Ventura counties Monday into Wednesday. This will
be a PARTICULAR DANGEROUS SITUATION (PDS) Red Flag Warning event
in many areas, with the combination of a strong offshore pressure
gradient (LAX-Daggett peaking at -8 to -9 mb), strong cold air
advection, and moderate upper level wind support. 

As surface high pressure builds into the Great Basin, Santa Ana
winds are expected to increase late Monday morning into
afternoon, then peak Monday night into Tuesday. Offshore winds
are expected to diminish some by Wednesday, but very dir will
persist. With the strong likelihood of widespread single digit
humidities with this event, there is high confidence for a long
duration Red Flag event. In addition, there is high confidence
of of PDS Red Flag Warning conditions late Monday evening through
Tuesday, as damaging wind gusts of 60 to 80 mph could overlap with
single digit humidities across many of the wind mountain and foothills
areas, and with gusts of 40 to 65 mph across most wind prone coastal
and valley areas of Los Angeles and Ventura  counties. With the
threat of damaging wind gusts in these windier corridors, there will
be an increased risk for downed trees and powerlines, along with
power outages. 

The hardest hit areas will likely be the San Gabriels, Santa

  the combination of damaging winds, single digit humidities, and
  extremely dry vegetation. Any new fire ignitions in this area will
  have dangerous fire spread with a significant threat to life and
  property.

* WINDS...Santa Ana winds expected to increase sharply late 
  Monday morning into afternoon, then peak Monday night into 
  Tuesday. when speeds of 25 to 40 mph with gusts of 40 to 65 
  mph common across coastal and valley areas. Some of the windier 
  foothills and mountains will likely see wind speeds of 30 to 
  50 mph with damaging wind gusts in the 60 to 80 mph range 
  during the peak of the event Monday night into Tuesday. Some 
  of the highest wind areas will likely be the San Gabriels, 
  Santa Susanas, western Santa Monicas into Malibu, Ventura 
  county valleys (especially Simi Valley and Moorpark), and 
  western San Fernando Valley (especially Highway 118/210 
  corridors from Porter Ranch to San Fernando). Offshore winds 
  are expected to diminish some by Wednesday. 

* RELATIVE HUMIDITY...Humidities are expected to lower to around 
  15 percent in many areas by Monday afternoon or early evening, 
  with widespread humidities of 5 to 10 percent likely later 
  Monday evening into Tuesday, and persisting into Wednesday, 
  with isolated readings as low as 2 percent likely.

* IMPACTS...If fire ignition occurs, conditions are favorable 
  for large fires with very rapid fire spread, extreme fire 
  behavior, and long range spotting, which would threaten life 
  and property. There is also the risk of damaging winds 
  including downed trees and power lines, as well as power 
  outages.

***THIS IS A PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION (PDS) FOR MANY 
  AREAS OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES ***

A strong, widespread, and long duration Santa Ana event will
bring widespread critical to extremely critical fire weather
conditions to many areas of Los Angeles and Ventura counties
today into Wednesday. This will be a PARTICULAR DANGEROUS
SITUATION (PDS) Red Flag Warning event in many areas, with the
combination of a strong offshore pressure gradient (LAX-Daggett
peaking at -8 to -9 mb), strong cold air advection, and moderate
upper level wind support.

As surface high pressure builds into the Great Basin, Santa Ana
winds are expected to increase late this morning into
afternoon, then peak tonight into Tuesday. A marine layer cloud
presence this morning may delay the onset of offshore winds across
portions of the coast and coastal valleys by a few hours from what
was expected yesterday. Offshore winds are expected to diminish
some by Wednesday, but very dir will persist. With the strong
likelihood of widespread single digit humidities with this event,
there is high confidence for a long duration Red Flag event.
In addition, there is high confidence of of PDS Red Flag Warning
conditions late Monday evening through Tuesday, as damaging wind
gusts of 60 to 80 mph will likely overlap with single digit
humidities across many of the windier mountain and foothill
areas, and with gusts of 40 to 65 mph across most wind prone
coastal and valley areas of Los Angeles and Ventura counties.
With the threat of damaging wind gusts in these windier
corridors, there will be an increased risk for downed trees and
powerlines, along with power outages. The hardest hit areas will
likely be the San Gabriels, Santa Susanas, western Santa Monicas
into Malibu, Ventura county valleys (especially Simi Valley and
Moorpark), western San Fernando Valley (especially Highway
118/210 corridors from Porter Ranch to San Fernando), and the
hills above Camarillo into east Ventura. Due to the expected
long duration of dangerous fire weather conditions and
critically dry fuels, there is the increasing potential for any
new ignitions to have very rapid fire spread and extreme fire
behavior (including long range spotting). As a result, there
is the increasing threat for fire weather conditions to rival
other historical fires in recent times including the Mountain
and Thomas Fires. Dry offshore conditions will likely persist
into Thursday morning.

***THIS IS A PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION (PDS) FOR MANY 
  AREAS OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES ***

A strong, widespread, and long duration Santa Ana event will
bring widespread critical to extremely critical fire weather
conditions to many areas of Los Angeles and Ventura counties
through Wednesday. This will be a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS 
SITUATION (PDS) Red Flag Warning event in many areas, with the 
combination of a strong offshore pressure gradient, strong cold 
air advection, and moderate upper level wind support.

As surface high pressure builds into the Great Basin, Santa Ana 
winds will continue today into Wednesday, peaking through early 
this afternoon. The offshore winds are expected to diminish some 
by Wednesday, but a very dry air mass will persist. With the 
strong likelihood of widespread single digit humidities with this 
event, there is high confidence for a long duration Red Flag 
event. In addition, there is high confidence of PDS Red Flag 
Warning conditions through early this afternoon, as damaging wind 
gusts of 60 to 80 mph will likely overlap with single digit 
humidities across many of the windier mountain and foothill areas.
Peak gusts of 40 to 65 mph will also affect most wind prone 
coastal and valley areas of Los Angeles and Ventura counties. With
the threat of damaging wind gusts in these windier corridors, 
there will be an increased risk for downed trees and powerlines, 
along with power outages.

The hardest hit areas will likely be the San Gabriels, Santa
Susanas, western Santa Monicas into Malibu, Ventura county
valleys (especially Simi Valley and Moorpark), western San
Fernando Valley (especially Highway 118/210 corridors from Porter
Ranch to San Fernando), and the hills above Camarillo into east
Ventura. Due to the expected long duration of dangerous fire
weather conditions and critically dry fuels, there is an
increased risk for any new ignitions to have very rapid fire
spread and extreme fire behavior (including long range spotting).
As a result, there is the increasing threat for fire weather
conditions to rival other historical fires in recent times
including the Mountain and Thomas Fires. Dry offshore conditions
will likely persist into Thursday morning, with a return of
onshore flow and some humidity recovery in the afternoon.

40 to 50 mph will also affect most wind prone coastal and valley 
areas of Los Angeles and Ventura counties through Wednesday 
morning. With the threat of these strong wind gusts in these 
windier corridors, there will be an increased risk for downed tree
limbs and powerlines, along with power outages. 

The hardest hit areas will continue to be the San Gabriels, Santa
Susanas, western Santa Monicas into Malibu, Ventura county 
valleys (especially Simi Valley and Moorpark), western San 
Fernando Valley (especially Highway 118/210 corridors from Porter 
Ranch to San Fernando), and the hills above Camarillo.

Due to the expected long duration of dangerous fire weather 
conditions and critically dry fuels, there is the increased risk 
for any new ignitions to have very rapid fire spread and extreme 
fire behavior (including long range spotting). Dry offshore 
conditions will likely persist into Wednesday night, shifting 
onshore on Thursday.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA
205 PM PST Sat Dec 7 2024

.SYNOPSIS...07/109 PM.

Much cooler weather is expected Sunday and Monday as light onshore
flow returns as well as areas of low clouds and locally dense fog.
Then late Monday into Tuesday a strong and possibly damaging
Santa Ana wind event is expected across parts of Los Angeles and
Ventura Counties. Fire weather concerns will be high with the
winds and low humidity. Rain is possible by next Friday or
Saturday.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TDY-TUE)...07/154 PM.

After another warm day across the area today high temperatures
are expected to cool 6-12 degrees Sunday and Monday as light
onshore flow returns. That still keeps most of the area 3-6
degrees above normal. And along with that shift to light onshore
flow there is a 50-70% chance of a shallow marine layer returning
to coastal areas with areas of very dense fog. Aside from that
Sunday and Monday will be relatively low impact weather days.

The biggest concern in the short term weather is the expected
development of another potentially very dangerous Santa Ana wind
event Monday night into Tuesday, creating significant fire weather
conditions. The NAM has double downed on the gradients with the
12z run, boosting an already impressive gradient of -8mb on the
Friday models to a hefty -10mb with the 12z run this morning.
Couple that with 50kt sustained winds as low as 900mb and strong
cold advection and the ingredients are in place for a very strong
Santa Ana wind event. This event is maximized with an easterly
wind component and very little north component, which typically
favors the entire Oxnard/Ventura/Camarillo plain and through the
interior Ventura County valleys, along with the usual areas of the
Santa Clarita Valley as well as the San Gabriels and Santa Susana
Mountains. A -10mb gradient would be greater than the 97th
percentile of all offshore events over the last 30 years or so.
And often, especially with strong events, the actual gradient will
weaken by 1-2 mb. In any case, even an -8mb gradient with similar
support aloft will produce very strong winds.

As mentioned, this event has quite a bit of cold air advection
with it so this will not be a particularly warm Santa Ana event.
However, temperatures are expected to remain mostly in the 70s
which for this time of year is at least 3-6 degrees above normal.
With humidities dropping into the teens and single digits during
the day and minimal overnight recovery, areas that are sheltered
from the winds at night will see temperatures drop considerably,
with areas of frost/freeze likely. The most notable areas would be
the Antelope Valley and portions of interior SLO County where
overnight temps in the 20s are likely, and the AV could see some
high teens.

.LONG TERM (WED-SAT)...07/204 PM.

Some lingering offshore winds expected on Wednesday but with
upper support dropping off winds are expected to be much weaker
than Tuesday. The rest of the week will feature a gradual return
to onshore flow as models continue to advertise another storm
system hitting the West Coast either Friday or Saturday. Still
quite a bit of ensemble spread, but overall the trend has been
towards a weaker system, and decreasing chances for rain south of
Santa Barbara. All the 12z ensembles keep rain amounts in the LA
area at less than a tenth of an inch (with roughly 50% of the
solutions showing no rain), and only around a quarter inch across
northern areas.

&&

.AVIATION...07/1907Z.

Around 19Z, there was no marine layer or inversion at KLAX.

Low confidence in coastal TAFs between 06Z-18Z with a 20-40
percent chance (except 50 percent at KLGB) of at least brief
VLIFR/LIFR cigs/vsbys.

Otherwise high confidence in light winds and VFR conds elsewhere
and otherwise.

KLAX...There is a 20-30 percent chance of VLIFR conditions
between 10Z and 17Z. Any east winds will likely be less than 7
knots.

KBUR...VFR conditions are expected through the period.

&&

.MARINE...07/139 PM.

Moderate confidence in the current forecast. Slightly higher
confidence in seas relative to winds.

For the waters southwest through northwest of the Channel Islands
and along the Central Coast, there is a low chance (10 to 30
percent) chance of Small Craft Advisory (SCA) level northwest
winds this afternoon, increasing to a moderate- to-likely (30 to
60 percent) chance of SCA level winds this evening through early
Monday morning. The highest chance for SCA level winds will be for
the waters beyond 30 NM offshore of the Central Coast extending
south to northwest of San Nicolas Island, while the lowest chance
will be for the waters nearshore along the Central Coast. There is
a moderate-to-high (30-50 percent) chance of widespread SCA
conditions between Sunday night and Monday across this region.
After Monday morning, winds and seas will likely drop below SCA
levels through Wednesday.

Inside the southern California bight, nearshore Ventura to Malibu
west to the Channel Islands, SCA level winds are likely (80-90
percent chance) late Monday to early Wednesday with a 30-50
percent chance of peaking at GALE strength Tuesday morning to
early afternoon. There is a 60-70 percent chance of SCA offshore
winds from the Port of LA to Catalina Harbor. There is a
moderate- to- high chance (60-70 percent) of breaking waves or
minor coastal flooding for east facing harbors. Theses harbors
would include Avalon and Two Harbors on Catalina Island, and
Smugglers Cove on Santa Cruz Island.

&&

.BEACHES...07/250 AM.

High astronomical tides approaching 7 feet during the early
morning hours will bring a chance of moderate coastal flooding to
southwest California shores late next week and next weekend.
Normally dry beach walkways and parking lots may see tidal
overflows and minor coastal flooding. There is a chance that beach
erosion may occur. Rip current activity may increase during the
run up to high tide.

&&

.LOX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
CA...Fire Weather Watch in effect from Monday morning through
      Wednesday afternoon for zones
      288-354-355-358-362-369>380-548. (See LAXRFWLOX).
