SYNOPSIS
Fair, dry, and mild weather will be the story though next week, with some day to day variations. High pressure over the Great Basin will continue gusty, Santa Ana winds to the mountains, foothills, and valleys this weekend. The strongest winds will occur today, but the warmest day will be Sunday as winds slowly weaken. Weak onshore flow returns for Monday and Tuesday with slight cooling, followed by more Santa Ana winds and dry conditions for the latter half of the week.
DISCUSSION
FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES...
A few high clouds were drifting south over the region this afternoon, otherwise it was sunny. At midday, temperatures ranged form 5-12F colder over the mountains and lower deserts, to 5-12F warmer, west of the mountains. Gusty Santa Ana winds had just come off peak strength over northern areas, and were widespread 15-25 MPH with locally stronger gusts, in the valleys. Strongest gusts have been around 65 MPH below the San Gorgonio Pass, through the Santa Ana Mtn canyons, and below the Cajon Pass. A wind gust summary is headlined on our webpage. Wind Advisories remain in effect through Sunday.
Strong high pressure of 1040 mb centered over southern Idaho, is forcing strong and gusty Santa Ana winds below the canyons and passes of SoCal today. The high will weaken by Sunday afternoon, so the gusty E-NE winds will continue through Sunday morning, before dropping off considerably. A weak wave, moving off the EastPac will top the longwave ridge along the West Coast on Monday, and will be followed by another, that will dig south from the PacNW on Tuesday.
These will be sufficient to flip our winds back onshore temporarily, and provide some cooling and humidity recovery. Latest indications are that those shortwaves will try and cutoff an upper low over northern AZ on Wednesday. The combination of this low, and the reemerging ridge along the West Coast for the latter half of next week, turn or winds back offshore. Depending on the proximity of that cutoff, the developing N-NE winds could could range from weak, to strong. Once this is resolved, we should have a better handle on the Santa Ana wind potential for later next week.
Until then, our warmest day west of the mountains will be on Sunday, followed by modest cooling Mon/Tue, and a modest recovery in relative humidity. By Wednesday as we turn back offshore, look for slow warming and more wind for the latter half of the week. Even though nights will be chilly where winds drop off, and highs over the mountains and deserts will be on the cool side, the high temperatures west of the mountains every day next week, look to remain above average, due to mostly offshore flow. And aside from some thicker high clouds on Monday, skies will be generally fair.
As we move into the following week though, confidence wanes as the spread in ensemble solutions of the various global models widens.
What is most noticeable, is the spread in onset of precipitation at points over SoCal. This appears to be in response to chances for the EastPac wave to cutoff well off the CA Coast. So at least for now, the trend suggests we may have to wait a bit longer, to get any meaningful chance for precipitation here in SoCal.
AVIATION
092055Z...Mostly clear with unrestricted VIS through Sunday. Locally strong northeast winds with strongest gusts 45-55 knots in foothills and below passes and canyons. Areas of moderate to strong up/downdrafts and LLWS expected. Winds will weaken somewhat early this evening most areas. The winds should rise again by late evening, mainly southern areas. Weakening winds all areas by Sunday afternoon.
MARINE
Northeast or east winds gusting around 20 knots can be expected at times into this evening. These can happen anywhere in the coastal waters, but are most likely near Camp Pendleton and at the Mexico border. Otherwise, no marine weather hazards are expected through Wednesday.
FIRE WEATHER
...Red Flag Warning in effect through Sunday afternoon for the Inland Empire...
Gusty northeasterly winds will continue through Sunday Morning.
Strongest winds will be below the Cajon Pass, along the Santa Ana Mountains, and below the San Gorgonio Pass, where a few gusts of around 65 mph are expected. Elsewhere in the Inland Empire and along the coastal slopes of the mountains in wind-prone areas, east to northeast winds will be 20 to 30 mph, with peak gusts 35 to 50 mph.
Relative humidity of around 10-15 percent this afternoon, will become more widespread and fall a bit further to 8-12 percent on Sunday afternoon. Expect poor RH recovery in the wind prone areas and thermal belts tonight, with a slight improvement Sunday night.
This will create areas of elevated to critical fire weather conditions in the valleys. Winds will weaken on Sunday afternoon.
Conditions improve Monday through early Wednesday as weak onshore flow returns.
SKYWARN
Skywarn activation is not requested. However weather spotters are encouraged to report significant weather conditions.
SGX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES
