(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus66 ksgx 221712 afdsgx area forecast discussion national weather service san diego ca 1012 am pdt Thu jun 22 2017 Excessive heat to continue through Monday in the lower deserts including the coachella valley... Synopsis It will continue excessively hot in the deserts through Monday under high pressure aloft. It will not be quite as hot in the valleys the next couple of days as onshore winds increase, extending the marine influence farther inland. The marine layer will continue to moderate temperatures in the coastal region with clouds lingering into the afternoons at some of the beaches. The mountains will remain hot through the weekend. Discussion For extreme southwestern california including orange... san diego... Western riverside and southwestern san bernardino counties... Update - deserts continue to bake, while temps moderate slightly west of the mountains... the morning san diego sounding showed subtle cooling at lower levels with the h85 temp at 27.8c, down from 28.6c 24 hour ago. This is indicative of the massive ridge, parked over arizona, easing its strength over southern california, though only by a tad. There was a moisture surge into the lower deserts yesterday and again today, even higher. Current dewpoints are into the 60s across the coachella valley with even some lower 70f dewpoint readings in the far southern valley and the san diego county deserts! So temps will take a slow rise to 100 but after mixing in the afternoon, we still anticipate highs to get up into the 110s. For the high deserts 105-110 with continued very low dewpoints in the 30s. For the mountains on west, temps will be cooler due to a larger onshore pressure gradient, allowing for a deeper marine layer and more modified pacific air further inland. The depth of the marine layer has increased since yesterday, so beaches may stay overcast. Highs will only stay in the 60s there. Winds peaked to 33 mph across the san bernardino desert slopes into the high desert (through and downwind of the cajon pass). Similar winds are expected there late this afternoon and early this evening with a few hours of gusts to around 35 mph and with the low relative humidity (5-15%) will create just a few hours of conditions favorable for quick spreading wildfires. However, a red flag warning will not be issued as it looks borderline and of short duration. No significant changes were made to the forecast this morning. See previous discussion below for further forecast details. Gregoria Previous discussion (issued at 352 am pdt Thu jun 22 2017)... excessively hot conditions will continue across the deserts through Monday as a high pressure ridge remains entrenched across the SW region. The build up over many days means a continued threat to public safety even as the temperatures have fallen a few degrees below the hottest temperatures of a couple days ago. |
Although temperatures will not be quite as hot as what we saw a few days ago, a minor flare up in the temperatures will occur Sunday as the high becomes a tad stronger and temperatures may flirt with the 120 mark once again in the lower deserts. The excessive heat warnings have been extended for the lower deserts through Monday as temperatures will reach excessive levels once again. A strong and shallow marine layer will continue cloudy and foggy conditions near the coast and into the western valleys each night and morning. As the high strengthens this weekend the marine intrusion will probably focus back right along the coastal strip. Then after Monday should deepen again and bring more extensive cooling into the valleys. The ridge breaks down after Monday as the high slowly flattens out and by mid next week a pacific trough slowly builds into the west coast... Bringing an increase in cooling temps aloft to all of the region and finally inland temperatures should settle back a little closer to near normal levels. Aviation 221629... Coast valleys... Stratus 15-25 sm inland, with bases 500-700 ft msl, tops 1600-2000 ft msl, and areas of vis 2-5 sm, will clear to the coast through 1900 utc. 1900-23 0000 utc, mostly p6sm vis and skc, except at and near the beaches where bkn-ovc stratus clouds around 1000-2000 ft msl and 5 sm vis may linger. 23 0000-1600 utc, low stratus re-developing 15-25 sm inland, with bases around 400-800 ft msl, tops around 1500-2000 ft msl, areas of vis 1-5 sm and local vis down to 1 4 sm. Mountains deserts... P6sm vis and mostly skc through Friday morning. Marine A shallow marine layer will continue to bring patchy dense fog (with visibilities of 1 nm or less) to the coastal waters this morning. Patchy dense fog will be possible during the nights and mornings through the weekend. Otherwise, no hazardous marine weather is expected through Monday. Beaches A south swell of 3-4 ft at 13-15 seconds from 165-170 degrees combined with a short-period west swell and large tidal swings (high tides of 6.5-7 ft with low tides around -1.0 ft), will result in strong and dangerous rip and longshore currents through Friday. This swell will also produce surf to 3-6 ft (with local sets to 7 ft) at orange county beaches and san diego county beaches north of oceanside. Also, the high tides will likely reach around 7+ ft during the evenings today through Saturday. Tides this high may result in minor tidal overflow at low lying beaches. A beach hazards statement continues through Friday. Skywarn Skywarn activation is not requested. However weather spotters are encouraged to report significant weather conditions.

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. |
