SYNOPSIS
A warming trend is expected through the weekend with early next week a few degrees cooler. High temperatures will warm to as much as 8 to 12 degrees above average for the deserts over the weekend with moderate to major HeatRisk for the lower deserts for the weekend. Nights will be warmer as well with record warm minimum temperatures possible for several locations each day for Friday through Sunday. The marine layer will become shallower, but with night and morning coastal low clouds still reaching the western valleys late each night.
DISCUSSION
FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES...
.SHORT TERM (Today through Thursday)...
High pressure over the eastern Pacific, well off the West Coast, will expand into southern California continuing the warming trend through Wednesday. High temperatures will warm around 5 degrees for inland areas today and another 5 to locally 10 degrees for inland areas on Wednesday. High temperatures on Wednesday will be a few degrees above average near the coast to 5 to locally 10 degrees above average for inland areas. High temperatures on Wednesday will range from the lower to mid 70s near the coast to the upper 80s to upper 90s for the Inland Empire with 104 to 108 for the lower deserts. On Thursday it may cool a few degrees for the coast and valleys.
The marine layer is around 2500 feet deep with low clouds expected to increase in coverage for coastal areas and eventually spread into portions of the inland valleys by around sunrise this morning. The marine layer will decrease in depth to around 2000 feet for Wednesday and Thursday with night and morning coastal low clouds spreading into the western valleys.
.LONG TERM (Friday through Monday)...
Additional slight warming will spread inland for Friday and Saturday with the coast and valleys a few degrees warmer on Friday and the mountains and deserts a few degrees warmer on Saturday.
Then slow cooling will spread inland on Sunday and Monday with the coast and valleys a few degrees cooler on Sunday and most areas a few degrees cooler on Monday.
High temperatures on Saturday will be a few degrees above average near the coast to 8 to 12 degrees above average for the mountains and deserts. High temperatures on Saturday will range from the lower to mid 70s near the coast to the upper 80s to upper 90s for the Inland Empire with 108 to 112 for the lower deserts.
High temperatures on Monday will be mostly within a few degrees of average for the coast and valleys to 4 to 8 degrees above average for the deserts. High temperatures on Monday will range from the lower to mid 70s near the coast to the 80s and lower 90s for the Inland Empire with 106 to 110 for the lower deserts.
Moderate HeatRisk is expected for portions of the deserts and Inland Empire and possibly inland Orange County as early as Wednesday. More widespread moderate HeatRisk is expected for the deserts and portions of the Inland Empire for Thursday and Friday.
Not much change for the weekend except portions of the lower deserts could reach major HeatRisk. The lower deserts could be near the threshold for and Extreme Heat Warning for Saturday and Sunday.
While the currently forecast high temperatures would not tie or exceed any existing high temperature records, there could be a few overnight temperatures near record levels for the mountains on Thursday. Several record warm minimum temperature records could be tied or broken for each day for Friday through Sunday, mainly for the coast and mountains with a few in the valleys as well. The sea surface temperature of 20.2C/68.4F at Scripps Pier on Monday was among the 10 percent of warmest for the date.

Coast/Valleys
Coverage of low clouds remains very patchy over coastal areas late this evening. Expect low clouds to eventually fill in reaching 15 to 20 miles inland by 11-13z.

Late onset of low cloud formation again Monday night with SKC expected through Monday evening.
Mountains/Deserts...Thin high clouds tonight clearing Tuesday.
Westerly winds with gusts 25-40 kts through mountain passes and locally into deserts this evening, tapering off 09-12z Tue. Pockets of MOD up/downdrafts and LLWS in lee of mountains.
