AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
230 PM PDT TUE SEP 5 2006
.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN DURING
THE NEXT FEW DAYS BRINGING A COOLING TREND AND A RETURN OF COASTAL
CLOUDS DURING THE NIGHTS AND MORNINGS. MONSOONAL MOISTURE WILL ALSO
DECREASE AND THE CHANCES OF AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS IN
THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS WILL DIMINISH.
&&
.DISCUSSION...FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES...
VERY HOT WEATHER SHOWING ITSELF AGAIN TODAY AFTER SOME REALLY WARM
OVERNIGHT LOWS. THE CONVECTIVE CLOUDS FORMING TODAY HAVE BEEN BLOWN
INTO THE VALLEYS BY THE EASTERLY WINDS ALOFT THAT ARE FAIRLY STRONG.
THIS MAY INHIBIT THE FORMATION OF THUNDERSTORMS AND ALSO LESSEN THE
CHANCE OF THEM BEING STATIONARY AND CAUSING FLASH FLOODS...BUT ALSO
INCREASE THE CHANCES OF TSTORMS IN THE VALLEYS. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH
REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM FOR THE MTNS AND DESERTS. PATCHES OF
FOG AT MOST MAY DEVELOP AT THE COAST TONIGHT...BUT WILL LARGELY BE A
NON ISSUE. AND ANOTHER WARM NIGHT IS EXPECTED IN OUR WARM AIR MASS
WITH THE SUPPRESSED MARINE LAYER. THE MARINE LAYER SHOULD BEGIN
GATHERING ITSELF WED AND THU AS A WEAK TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE BEGINS
TO SAG SOUTHWARD. A COASTAL EDDY IS POSSIBLE AND LOW CLOUDS WILL GET
INTO SOME COASTAL VALLEYS AT NIGHT STARTING WED NIGHT. SO FAIR
WEATHER IS EXPECTED WITH NOCTURNAL LOW CLOUDS NEAR THE COAST AND
INTO SOME VALLEYS. LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE SHOWS THE UPPER RIDGE
REBUILDING OVER THE WEST COAST EARLY NEXT WEEK FOR MORE HOT WEATHER.
&&
.AVIATION...
LATE MORNING ACARS SOUNDINGS FORM KSAN AND KSNA INDICATE THE MARINE
LAYER REMAINS VERY SHALLOW WITH NO STRATUS OVER THE COASTAL WATERS.
EXPECT THE COASTAL AIRPORTS TO REMAIN VFR WITH A MOSTLY CLEAR SKY
THROUGH THE NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.
THE AIR MASS OVER THE AREA REMAINS UNSTABLE AND THERE IS ENOUGH
MOISTURE FOR CONVECTION TO DEVELOP OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS
THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON WITH ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. THUNDERSTORM
BASES SHOULD BE AROUND 7000 FEET MSL WITH TOPS ABOVE FL400 AT TIMES.
THE THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DISSIPATE BY SUNSET. MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS
SHOULD BE VFR WITH A MOSTLY CLEAR SKY TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY
MORNING. ISOLATED CONVECTION IS EXPECTED...AGAIN...WEDNESDAY
