Area Discussion for - San Joaquin Valley/Hanford, CA

      (on/off)   Help   NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition

Fxus66 khnx 240030 aaa afdhnx area forecast discussion... Updated national weather service san joaquin valley - hanford ca 430 pm pst Wed jan 23 2019 Updated air quality issues section... Synopsis High pressure along the u.S. West coast will bring dry weather and a day to day warming trend through the weekend. Areas of night and morning fog will occur in the san joaquin valley through the period. Discussion The fog has dissipated in the central valley and given way to mostly sunny skies. A few high clouds will continue to move into the region from the northwest this afternoon. Later this evening, northwest winds are expected to increase over western and northern portions of our san joaquin valley (or fresno county northward) due to an upper-level disturbance; we are thinking this could briefly prevent fog formation in these areas for tonight Thursday morning. Otherwise, patchy dense fog is expected to redevelop later tonight in southern portions of the sj valley, such as hanford, corcoran, and the 99 corridor from around selma to delano. Short-term high resolution fog guidance suggests little or no development; however, current surface dewpoints are sufficiently high, even a bit warmer than tonight's forecast low temperatures. Otherwise, expect temperatures to warm a couple of degrees each day through the weekend as high pressure will continue to build over our area. Nighttime morning fog is expected until at least the weekend, although another upper-level disturbance could mitigate widespread dense fog development on Friday night into

Saturday morning. Models continue to forecast a somewhat stronger upper-level disturbance passing over central california and the great basin early next week, or during Monday Monday night. This feature could be strong enough to bring increased clouds and gusty northerly winds over the mountains and desert; however, we do not anticipate precipitation with this system as any moisture will be well to the east. The ridge of high pressure will rebuild along the west coast soon afterward. Thus, generally little change in weather is expected for the first half of next week, and temperatures will be mild, or a few degrees above average for late january. Aviation Fog and mist forming late at night and early morning in the san joaquin valley with areas of MVFR conditions and local ifr lifr visibility, especially towards the south sjv 08z-18z Friday. Otherwise,VFR conditions will prevail over the central ca interior during the next 24 hours. Air quality issues On Thursday, january 24th, 2019, fireplace wood stove burning status is: no burning unless registered in fresno and kings counties. Further information is available at valleyair.Org. Certainty The level of certainty for days 1 and 2 is high. The level of certainty for days 3 through 7 is medium. Certainty levels include low... Medium... And high. Please visit

These are not intended to be fact, they are my opinions. 4) Small programs that generate result presented on a web page. Like any computer program, these may and in some cases do have errors. 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.
