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

Update...
At 9 AM, scattered mid-level clouds are seen from the coast
through the mountains. A very intense 509 DM storm system is
churning off the coast of British Columbia today and longwave
troughing is covering Southern California. Onshore winds will be
on the increase this afternoon across the mountains and deserts,
increasing further on Saturday. Rain chances will begin to
increase across northern areas this evening, spreading farther
south and east by Saturday morning. Hi-resolution guidance this
morning is trending slightly heavier across the San Bernardino
County Mountains on Saturday, so adjustments may be made to
increase rain amounts with the afternoon forecast package.

Previous Discussion (Issued 426 AM PST Fri Mar 1 2024)...
.SHORT TERM (Today through Sunday)...
The marine layer has continued to deepen with patchy drizzle from
the coast to the coastal slopes of the mountains. Measurable
amounts have been spotty so far with the greatest amounts, to
around 0.05 inch, on the coastal slopes of the San Bernardino
Mountains.

A large cold low pressure system off the coast of British
Columbia and the Pacific Northwest will move slowly inland through
the weekend. This will continue to strengthen the onshore flow
across southern California into the weekend. The strongest winds
are expected for the mountains and deserts on Saturday afternoon
and night. Southwest to west winds are expected to gust to 70 to
80 mph on the desert slopes of the mountains with isolated gusts
to 90 mph.

The cooling trend will continue into Saturday with high
temperatures for mountains and inland valleys 10 to 15 degrees
below average. There will be slight warming on Sunday.

Through Sunday for Orange and southwestern San Bernardino
Counties, rainfall is expected to range from around one-third
inch near the coast to 1 to 2 inches the mountains with isolated
amounts to around 3 inches on the coastal slopes.

For San Diego and western Riverside Counties, rainfall is expected
to range near the coast from one-third inch for northern San
Diego County to around one-tenth inch for southern San Diego
County to one-half to one inch in the mountains.

A snow level around 6000 to 6500 feet on Saturday is expected to
fall to around 5000 feet on Sunday with snowfall of 3 to 6 inches
in the mountains above 6500 feet with isolated greater amounts
above 7500 feet. Around 1 to 2 inches is possible between
6000-6500 feet.

&&

.LONG TERM (Monday through Thursday)...
