10/6/2018 Colors of tide XTide graphs changed to emphasize that they were upgraded. See next note. Comments welcome. 10/4/2018 I have fixed XTide and updated the harmonic files. There were some name changes so you might have to click EDIT to find the new station name. |

(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus66 ksgx 172122 afdsgx area forecast discussion national weather service san diego ca 122 pm pst Sat nov 17 2018 Synopsis High pressure aloft will keep the weather fair and dry through next Tuesday, with patchy night and morning low clouds and fog near the coast. A weak trough will develop off the coast next weak and move inland over the holiday weekend, bringing cooling and higher humidity. Rain will be likely over northern parts of california by Wednesday. Some light rain could even survive the trip into southern california Wednesday night or thanksgiving day. The cooler weather and higher humidity will prevail through the holiday weekend, and some light, marine layer precipitation will be possible at times as well. Discussion For extreme southwestern california including orange... san diego... Western riverside and southwestern san bernardino counties... skies were fair across socal as high, cirrus clouds drifted from west to east. There evidently was enough instability aloft for some cirrus floccus with long ice crystal tails to develop, adding to the diversity of cloud type. The sfc pressure gradient was weak, keeping winds light most areas. Relative humidity remained very low, except along the immediate coast. High pressure aloft will force any incoming energy and moisture from a weak pacific low pressure area offshore, to the south. The net affect of this interaction will drive better offshore flow through Monday, keeping any meaningful rise in humidity confined to coastal areas. See fire weather discussion below for more detail. A more significant trough will get carved out over the far eastpac during the latter half of next week, bringing some needed rainfall to northern and central portions of the state. As it swings farther inland, some light precip could brush socal Wed night thanksgiving day. Since the system is weakening, prospects for much rain look remote at this time with chances decreasing from north to south. |
The flow aloft remains mostly zonal after the passage of the holiday trough, keeping temperatures seasonal, and humidity levels elevated in a fairly deep marine layer. The passage of additional weather systems to the north may even squeeze some drizzle or light rain from the marine layer west of the mts at times through next weekend, but nothing heavy appears in the offing. Aviation 172100z... Sct-bkn high clouds will continue to push in from the west this afternoon and evening with bases at or abv 15000 ft msl with unrestricted vis. Potential exists for low clouds with bases aob 1000 ft msl, and fog making an appearance late tonight along the immediate coast and in some coastal valleys, though confidence is low at this time. Marine No hazardous marine weather is expected through Wednesday. Fire weather Widespread rh levels remained at 15% or less at midday inland, and vegetation remains very dry, but winds are light. Although there will be a slight onshore push this afternoon, winds will turn back offshore tonight into Sunday, and increase Sunday night into Monday. This will reinforce the dry conditions westward into the valleys with minimum rh levels in the 10-20% range. Coupled with the offshore winds of 15 to 25 mph along the coastal slopes and below passes and canyons, fire weather conditions will again be elevated late Sunday and Monday, although critical conditions are not expected at this time.

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
