.SHORT TERM (Today through Saturday)...
High pressure aloft will begin to weaken today with a low pressure system moving inland through California on Friday night. High temperatures will cool from around 10 degrees above average today to within a few degrees of average on Saturday. With the cooling, high temperatures on Saturday will range from the mid to upper 60s near the coast to the mid 70s to lower 80s for the Inland Empire with the lower deserts in the mid to upper 90s.
The marine layer is slowly deepening early this morning.
Satellite imagery shows more widespread low clouds spreading inland past Interstate 5 in Orange County and into the far western valleys in San DIego County. Deepening of the marine layer to around 1500 feet is expected for this morning, 2000 feet for Friday morning, and 2500 feet for Saturday morning. Coastal low clouds will spread farther into the western valleys for early Friday morning, and into portions of the inland valleys for early Saturday morning.
Onshore flow will strengthen for today and Thursday. There will periods of stronger and gusty southwest to west winds for the mountains and deserts during the afternoon and evening for today and Thursday with the stronger gusts today to 30 to 40 mph and on Thursday to 35 to 45 mph.
.LONG TERM (Sunday through Wednesday)...
High pressure aloft for Sunday will result in around 5 degrees of warming. Then gradually cooler for Monday through Wednesday with high temperatures for next Wednesday near average. The marine layer will decrease in depth to around 2000 feet on Sunday with coastal low clouds not extending as far into the valleys for early Sunday.
For the early and middle part of next week, a weak upper level low pressure system may develop in the vicinity of southern California. The marine layer will deepen with night and morning coastal low clouds extending inland across much of the inland valleys with slower or more limited afternoon clearing near the coast.
AVIATION

Coast
Patchy low clouds have pushed inland up to 10 miles so far with bases ranging from 400ft to 900ft MSL. VIS for coastal mesas and valleys 0-2SM while elsewhere VIS is generally above 6SM. Brief lowering of bases down to 200-400ft MSL with worsening VIS possible for coastal sites, especially after 12z.
Clearing to the beaches will occur by 16-17z, but clouds may linger offshore through the afternoon. Marine layer redevelops again tonight, pushing ashore as early as 02-03z with slightly higher bases likely above 700ft MSL and better VIS. Clearing Friday morning expected at a similar time as this morning, around 17-18z.
Elsewhere...Clear with unrestricted vis through tonight.
