10/9/2019 Updated the Marine Zones. 9/4/2019 Fixed the weather maps due to NOAA moving them. 7/25/2019 New feature in the Airports section gives a link to 5 minute updates for data reports. 6/2/2019. Many thanks to a user for reporting an error on one of the Edit pages. The switch to PHP 7.2 caused many pages that previously worked to quit working. I fixed many but I still depend on users to report ones I missed. Please report errors HERE or send an email to me at L-36.com. Allen |

SYNOPSIS A cold low pressure system will move across southern California today bringing much cooler weather with numerous showers and a chance of thunderstorms, snow in the mountains above 5000 to 5500 feet, and with gusty south to southwest winds. Periods of showers will continue tonight with decreasing coverage for Thursday into Thursday evening. Warmer and dry for the weekend with high temperatures returning to around average. Cooler and breezy to windy the early to middle part of next week with some possiblity of precipitation as a northwest flow pattern develops across southern California.
DISCUSSION FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO... WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES...
SHORT TERM (Today through Friday) A cold low pressure system, centered near Point Conception early this morning, will move slowly eastward across southern California today to near Las Vegas tonight into Thursday morning. It will then move eastward and weaken Thursday and Thursday night.
Showers will become more numerous this morning, mostly along and west of the mountains. Another round of more intense showers will move inland from the coastal waters to the mountains during the afternoon as the coldest air aloft moves across southwestern California with most unstable CAPE values increasing to around 750 J kg across the coastal waters and adjacent coastal areas.
Periods of showers will continue tonight with decreasing coverage and precipitation amounts for Thursday into Thursday evening.
There will be gusty south to southwest winds today with peak gusts around 30 mph for coastal areas and near 50 mph along the desert slopes of the mountains.
It will be significantly cooler today with high temperatures generally 15 to 25 degrees cooler than yesterday. This will be followed by gradual warming on Thursday and Friday with the greatest warming in the mountains and valleys.
On Friday, the models are closer to the placement of a closed upper low expected to develop well off the coast of southern California and northern Baja, with it far enough west to keep southern California dry on Friday.
LONG TERM (Saturday through Tuesday) That closed upper low should stay far enough off the coast for the weekend into early next week to have little or no impact on southern California. The weekend should be dry and warmer with high temperatures returning to around average.
For the early to middle part of next week a generally northwest flow pattern will developing across the eastern Pacific into the western states. It should be cooler and breezy to windy. There is less agreement in the timing, amplitude, and track of low pressure systems moving along in this northwest flow with some potential for precipitation the early to middle part of next week. The lower level flow could turn briefly offshore between systems.

HYDROLOGY A cold low pressure system, centered near Point Conception early this morning, will move slowly eastward across southern California today to near Las Vegas tonight into Thursday morning. It will then move eastward and weaken Thursday and Thursday night.
Showers will become more numerous this morning, mostly along and west of the mountains. Another round of more intense showers will move inland from the coastal waters to the mountains during the afternoon as the coldest air aloft moves across southwestern California with most unstable CAPE values increasing to around 750 J kg across the coastal waters and adjacent coastal waters. The NBM three-hour thunderstorm PoPs peak at near 35 to 40 percent over the San Diego County coastal waters during the afternoon.
Periods of showers will continue tonight with decreasing coverage and precipitation amounts for Thursday into Thursday evening.

Amounts will generally decrease to the northwest across Orange County, the Inland Empire, and adjacent mountains with one half to one inch across the Orange County coastal plain and Inland Empire with 1.5 to 2.5 inches in the mountains. Additional rainfall in the deserts will mostly be one quarter inch or less.
Peak rainfall rates of around one half inch per hour are possible this afternoon with thunderstorms and the more intense showers.

In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
