(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus66 ksgx 201647 afdsgx area forecast discussion national weather service san diego ca 947 am pdt Fri apr 20 2018 Synopsis A low pressure system over the southwestern states will move east with high pressure aloft and weaker onshore flow for southern california through early next week. High temperatures for inland areas will warm to near average this afternoon... And to 5 to 10 degrees above average for Saturday through Monday. The marine layer and weak onshore flow will keep coastal temperatures near average with areas of night and morning low clouds and fog. For Tuesday through Friday... A low pressure system over the eastern pacific will move slowly towards the west coast. This will bring slowly increasing onshore flow and slow deepening of the marine layer with night and morning low clouds and fog extending into portions of the valleys. Slow cooling will spread into the valleys with periods of gusty southwest to west winds in the mountains and deserts. Discussion For extreme southwestern california including orange... san diego... Western riverside and southwestern san bernardino counties... Update... a warmer day is set for today with plentiful sunshine through just a few clouds from orange county to the san bernardinos as high pressure aloft re-gains control. No changes are needed to the forecast this morning. See previous discussion below for further forecast details. Previous discussion (issued at 301 am pdt Fri apr 20 2018)... the low pressure system that moved through southern california Thursday is now centered across arizona and utah and continuing to move to the east. Onshore lower level flow and northwest flow aloft are continuing to weaken across southern california early this morning. Strongest gusts at whitewater in the northern coachella valley below the san gorgonio pass are still around 50 mph... But gusts elsewhere across the mountains and deserts of san diego and riverside counties are mostly less than 40 mph and continuing to subside. |
Aircraft soundings late Thursday evening showed the main subsidence inversion aloft around 600 mb with multiple weaker inversions below that. Satellite imagery shows patchy stratus across the coastal waters into orange county... And in a few inland valley locations near the coastal mountain slopes. Higher resolution models show some increase in coverage this morning past sunrise across the inner coastal waters and adjacent coastal areas of orange and san diego counties with patchier coverage farther inland to the lower coastal mountain slopes. High temperatures will warm today... Returning to near average. For Saturday through Monday... High pressure aloft and weaker onshore flow will bring additional warming with high temperatures for inland areas 5 to 10 degrees above average. For coastal areas... Weak onshore flow and the marine layer will keep high temperatures near average with areas of night and morning low clouds and fog. For Tuesday through Friday... A low pressure system over the eastern pacific will move slowly towards the west coast with slowly strengthening onshore flow. Slow cooling will spread into the valleys as the marine layer slowly deepens with night and morning coastal low clouds and fog extending into portions of the valleys. The stronger onshore flow will bring periods of gusty southwest to west winds in the mountains and deserts. Aviation 201630z... Coast valleys... Few-sct low clouds with bases mostly abv 3000 ft msl through this afternoon. Patchy low clouds return to the coastal areas after 02z sat, increasing in coverage after 07z with bases around 1000 ft msl. Confidence in impacts at coastal TAF sites is low.

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. |
