Marine Weather and Tides
Version 3.4 |
12/16/2019 NOAA is having trouble with requests that include wind gusts. I am posting graphs without wind gusts until it gets fixed. 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. |

SYNOPSIS. Low pressure system over southern California is producing light precipitation in the mountains and desert of Kern County today and this evening. Dry weather will return to the region on Saturday. A fast moving upper level disturbance will bring a chance of showers and isolated thunderstorms to the Sierra Sunday and Monday afternoon. Dry weather is expected across the region through the remainder of the week. Isolated showers are possible again in the Sierra Thursday and Friday afternoon.
DISCUSSION. Complex closed low center over SOCAL will slowly drift east over the next 24 hours. We are expecting showers to continue through this evening across Kern county. Rain and snow amounts are expected to be light through this evening. Regional radar is indicating another band of precip will impact the Frazier Park area this morning. The Winter storm warning will expire around 8 am PDT. Current guidance is indicating up to 3 additional inches of snow is possible above 6000 feet this morning. Up to 0.25 inches of rain is possible over the desert region today.
Friday is looking very nice with clear skies and seasonable temperatures. It will be gradually warming up over the weekend with isolated showers and a possible thunderstorm over the Sierra Sunday and Monday. It will be a very nice week this week with slightly above normal temperatures and dry conditions. We are looking at another weather system trying to get organized on Friday. The ECM and GFS deterministic runs are in good agreement with the timing with the system. We did add a slight chance of showers over the Sierra on Thursday and Friday afternoons.

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
