Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA 452 AM PST Fri Dec 1 2023
SYNOPSIS
01/451 AM.
Cool and breezy conditions are expected through at least Saturday, with the strongest winds in the mountains. Some light rain showers will be possible in and around the Grapevine early this morning. A warming trend will start Saturday, with breezy Santa Ana winds affecting portions of the area early next week.
.SHORT TERM (TDY-SUN)...01/449 AM.
NW flow covers the state. Srn CA has clear skies except for a bunch of clouds and isolated showers across the north slopes of the mtns along the Kern County line. The winds have developed much slower than fcst but are just picking up now as some cold air advection works its way into Srn CA. Still current suite of wind advisories may be a touch overdone and may need adjusting with the mid morning update. Max temps across the csts/vlys will rise 1 to 3 degrees due to the offshore flow while the interior will cool 3 to 6 degrees as cooler interior air is ushered in from the north.
Today will be the coolest day of the next 7 for most of the area with max temps coming in 4 to 8 degrees blo normal.
The mtn winds will continue into this evening but should subside around midnight. The cool dry airmass and clear skies will allow for ample radiational cooling in the wind sheltered area and many interior areas will have freezing or near freezing overnight lows.
Hgts rise from 566 dam this afternoon to 572 dam Saturday afternoon. These hgts rises combined with sunny skies and 2 to 4 mb of offshore flow will bring 4 to 8 degrees of warming to most of the area. This warming will bring most max temps back up to normal. The offshore flow from both the N and E will generate some canyon winds in the morning, but with limited upper support no advisories are anticipated.
Again there will be some areas of freezing temps across the interior late Saturday night/Sunday morning.
Chamber of Commerce day on tap for Sunday as offshore flow persists and hgts rise to 582 dam. Like Saturday, there will be some morning canyon winds but with no upper level support they will be of the 15 to 25 mph variety. 2 to 3 degrees of warming for most of the area will bring max temps into the upper 60s and lower 70s for most of the csts/vlys.
.LONG TERM (MON-THU)...01/310 AM.
Srn CA is looking at 4 days of ridging and offshore flow in the xtnd period. Monday may be a mostly cloudy day as a grip of mid and high level clouds moves overhead. That and some Central Coast morning clouds should be the only exceptions to mostly clear skies.
The ensemble pressure gradients from the NAEFS show that there should be about 4 to 5 mb of offshore flow from the N and 1 to 2 mb of offshore flow from the east. These offshore gradients result from a fairly static sfc high sitting over the great basin and xtndg into ID. These grads are little more biased to the north than a usual Santa Ana and the morning winds will be strongest through and below the more N/S oriented canyons. With zero upper level or thermal support wind advisories are very unlikely.
Look for 2 to 5 degrees of warming each day Mon and Tue which will bring max temps across the coasts and vlys up into the mid 70s to lower 80s on Tuesday or 6 to 12 degrees above normal. Not much change in temps on Wed. There will be some cooling on Thursday as the offshore flow relaxes and and hgts fall as the ridge begins to break down.
AVIATION
01/0937Z.
At 1000Z, there was no marine inversion or marine layer at KLAX.
Overall, high confidence in 12Z TAF package. Developing northerly flow will keep all sites VFR through the period. Timing of wind direction changes could be +/- 2 hours of current forecasts.
There will be some light turbulence and LLWS over the mountains and foothills through this morning.
KLAX...High confidence in VFR conditions through the 12Z TAF period. There is a 30-40% chance that gusty northwesterly cross winds will not develop in the 12Z-18Z time frame. No significant easterly winds are expected.
KBUR...High confidence in 12Z TAF as VFR conditions are anticipated through the period.
MARINE
01/138 AM.
For the Outer Waters, moderate to high confidence in current forecast. Tonight through Saturday night, high confidence in combination of Small Craft Advisory (SCA) level winds and seas for the entire area with a 60-80% chance of Gale Force winds through this afternoon across PZZ673/676. For Sunday through Monday, there is a 50-70% chance of SCA level winds continuing, especially across PZZ673/676. For Tuesday, high confidence in winds and seas remaining below SCA levels for all the Outer Waters.
For the Inner Waters north of Point Sal, moderate to high confidence in current forecast. For today, there is a 60-80% chance of SCA level winds, especially this afternoon and evening.
For tonight and Saturday, there is a 30-50% chance of SCA level winds. For Sunday through Tuesday, high confidence in winds and seas remaining below SCA levels.
For the Inner Waters south of Point Conception, moderate to high confidence in current forecast. For this morning, high confidence in SCA level winds across western sections of the southern Inner Waters. By this afternoon, winds will diminish below SCA levels across PZZ655, but will remain through this evening across the western half of the Santa Barbara Channel. For Saturday, there is a 30-40% chance of SCA level winds across the western half of the Santa Barbara Channel again. For Saturday night through Monday, there is a 20-30% chance of SCA level northeast winds from Ventura southward to Santa Monica, especially in the overnight and morning hours. For Tuesday, high confidence winds and seas remaining below SCA levels.
