Synopsis for the far southern california coast - At 2 am, a 999 mb low was over southern utah and a 1031 mb high was about 1,590 miles west of san diego. Strong northwest winds and higher seas will generate hazardous boating conditions through this morning, especially beyond 15 nautical miles offshore. Gale force winds are possible at times near san clemente island. Weaker onshore flow and an occasional eddy circulation will follow for later today through Monday.

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Diego CA 940 AM PDT Sat Apr 27 2024

SYNOPSIS
Dry and warming conditions expected this weekend into early next week. Many areas will have to near to slightly above average temperatures Sunday through early next week. The marine layer will be shallower, with night and morning low clouds and patchy fog more confined to coastal areas. There is some uncertainty in the forecast for the latter half of the week, but dry conditions are expected with a potential for widespread above average temperatures.

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

Dry conditions are expected through the rest of the weekend with weaker winds and sunnier skies for much of Southern California.
Northwest flow aloft will keep temperatures at bay today, though a bit warmer than Friday's temperatures. Higher pressure aloft is expected into early next week, which will bring temperatures to near to slightly above average for Sunday through Tuesday. Highs in the upper 60s expected near the coast, with highs in the upper 70s and low 80s in the valleys, and highs in the 90s in the lower deserts.

Winds today are expected to be weaker than what was observed for the end of the work week. The backside of the trough will still be close enough to Southern California today to enhance the onshore pressure gradient and afternoon sea breeze. West to northwest winds across mountains and deserts will have peak gusts of 25-40 MPH. Winds will be slightly higher through the San Gorgonio Pass this afternoon and evening, with local gusts up to 55 mph possible. Winds will continue to weaken into Sunday and early next week as weak high pressure aloft prevails.

A trough of low pressure aloft is expected to move across the Intermountain West Wednesday, further weakening the already weak high pressure over California. This will mean a few degrees of cooling for most areas on Wednesday. For Thursday and Friday there remains some disagreement amongst global models on how quickly high pressure aloft will build over the West Coast in the wake of the aforementioned trough. About a quarter of the global ensemble solutions have a ridge building over the West Coast for Thursday and Friday. While the other solutions are more in favor of additional troughing, the majority of those solutions are indicating conditions will remain dry into next weekend. Current forecast follows the NBM with warming conditions into next Saturday.
