Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA 204 PM PDT Sat Apr 19 2025
SYNOPSIS
19/203 PM.
Mostly clear skies and warming trend are on tap through Monday. A slow cooling trend will develop Tuesday through the remainder of next week with increasing night and morning low clouds and fog.
.SHORT TERM (TDY-TUE)...19/202 PM.
Quiet, low impact weather will likely prevail through at least Tuesday.
The warmup kicked off today in a fairly big way will continue into Sunday especially for areas north of Point Conception with continued warming for the interior possible Monday into Tuesday with little change or slight cooling trends near the coast due to onshore trends and the marine layer.
High confidence in low clouds and fog north of Point Conception tonight with about a 50 percent chance south of Point Conception.
Patchy dense fog with visibility under one quarter of a mile will be possible at times, especially along the Central Coast. Night to morning low clouds and fog will continue through Tuesday and beyond, although pockets of the coast, especially from the Santa Barbara South Coast to Oxnard area may be spared.
Breezy west to north winds are expected near the coast and interior, peaking each afternoon to evening, but anticipated to remain safely below advisory levels.
.LONG TERM (WED-SAT)...19/202 PM.
Below normal confidence in the extra track and strength of a trough to push into the Pacific Northwest in the Friday or Saturday timeframe but high confidence that any impacts will be minimal with only about a 20 percent chance that the trough is strong enough or positioned far enough south of light rain and even then the rain would be most likely relegated to the Central Coast and points north.
What is likely is significant marine layer deepening and cooling trends in the Wednesday through Friday time frame with night to low clouds becoming common into foothills and lower mountain passes. The rapid deepening of the marine layer may trigger patchy drizzle in the night through morning hours.
High confidence in increasing winds for the interior, nearing advisory levels especially for the Antelope Valley foothills each late afternoon and evening Wednesday through Friday or Saturday.
AVIATION
19/1933Z.
At 1842Z at KLAX, the marine LAYER was 1500 feet deep. The top of the inversion was 2800 feet with a temp of 13 degrees Celsius.
High confidence in desert, KBUR, KVNY TAFs, moderate confidence in remainder of TAFs. There is a 30% chance of MVFR cigs at KLGB, KLAX, and KSMO, with a 20% chance at KCMA and KOXR, and a 20% chance at KSMO 09Z-17Z Sun.
KLAX...Good confidence through 06Z Sun, then moderate confidence in TAF. There is a 30% chance of BKN-OVC025-035 conditions 09Z-17Z Sun. No significant easterly wind component is expected.
KBUR...Moderate confidence in TAF.
MARINE
19/125 PM.
For the Outer Waters, moderate to high confidence in current forecast. Through tonight, high confidence in winds and seas remaining below Small Craft Advisory (SCA) levels. For Sunday through Tuesday, there is a 20-30% chance of SCA level winds around Point Conception. For Wednesday, there is a 60-80% chance of SCA level winds across all the Outer Waters.
For the Inner Waters north of Point Sal, moderate to high confidence in current forecast. Today through Tuesday, high confidence in winds and seas remaining below SCA levels. For Wednesday, there is a 40-50% chance of SCA level winds in the afternoon and evening hours.
For the Inner Waters south of Point Conception, moderate to high confidence in current forecast. Today through Wednesday, high confidence in winds and seas remaining below SCA levels across most areas. The only exception will be the western half of the Santa Barbara Channel where there is a 20-30% chance of SCA level winds today and Sunday during the late afternoon and evening hours.
