Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA 409 AM PST Wed Nov 29 2023
SYNOPSIS
28/815 PM.
A cool and unsettled weather pattern will affect southern California for the latter half of this week, as a series of weak storm systems move across the region. Isolated to scattered light showers, and areas of gusty northerly winds, are expected to accompany these systems from Wednesday through Saturday. A warming and drying trend is expected Sunday into early next week, with increasing offshore flow.
.SHORT TERM (TDY-FRI)...29/243 AM.
A 557 dam compact upper low is swirling 60 miles NW of the Bay area. A weak front and post frontal trof xtnd out to the SW from it. The upper low will open up into a trof and slowly move across the state today. The front will likely bring rain to the Central Coast but the energy's trajectory south of Pt Conception will take it south of LA county and into Orange and SAN counties. This will result in only a 10 to 20 percent chc of rain for the VTA/LA csts and vlys. As far as rainfall goes this is not an impressive storm and storm totals will be under a quarter inch for the Central Coast and mostly a tenth of less south of Pt Conception. Western SBA county and SLO county will start the day off cloudy while areas south of Pt Conception will see some sunshine in the morning before the clouds roll in. Max temps will drop 5 to 10 degrees today and max temps across the csts and vlys will end up in the 60s or 4 to 8 degrees blo normal.
Skies will clear out tonight with subsidence filling in the wake of the departing trof. There will be some stronger than normal gusts (but under advisory level) across the western portion of the SBA south coast, the I-5 corridor along with the western half of the Antelope Vly.
Not much happening Thursday a grip of cirrus will ride overhead in the morning and create mostly cloudy skies. These clouds should clear out by afternoon and skies will turn mostly sunny. There will be moderate westerly winds across the Antelope Vly and western foothills. Max temps will warm 3 to 6 degrees everywhere except for the Antelope Vly where there will be a few degrees of cooling.
Another weak disturbance will slide over the area Thursday night it will bring clouds and a chc of showers to the north slopes along the Kern County line. Snow levels will fall to around 5500 ft which will not be low enough to affect the I-5 corridor. Precip amounts will be minimum at best. Stronger low end advisory level northerly gusts will develop across the western portion of the SBA south coast, the I-5 corridor along with most of the Antelope Vly and its foothills.
Aside from some north slope clouds Friday will be mostly sunny.
Gusty north winds will affect large portions of SBA/VTA/LA counties as the N/S gradient increases through the day along with some upper level northerly wind support and a little cold air advection mixed in. Most areas will cool 3 to 6 degrees because of the cold air advection but the LA and VTA coasts will warm a little due to the downsloping flow.
Advisory level northerly gusts will continue to affect the mtns and gusty sub advisory north winds will likely filter down into the vlys and across the csts.
.LONG TERM (SAT-TUE)...29/307 AM.
GFS/EC deterministic as well as ensemble bases fcsts agree that NW flow will hold sway over the state on Sat with weak ridging moving into the state on Sunday and persisting through at least Tuesday.
Moderate offshore flow from the north will persist through the period with light offshore flow from the east on Sat and Sun. The offshore push from the east increases on Mon and Tue.
Look for gusty northerly winds switching to a the typical Santa Ana NE direction early next week. There is not much upper or thermal support so the winds will likely only be able to reach the lower end of advisory level if they reach them at all. Right now Tuesday looks like the best day for wind advisories for the usual Santa Ana locations.
The ridging and offshore flow will combine to bring 4 days of warming to the area. Max temps will begin to rise to normals on Sun and then exceed normals on Mon. By Tuesday most of the csts and vlys will see max temps in the mid 70s to lower 80s.
Cool nights will continue for the wind sheltered interior areas with lows in the lower to mid 30s.
AVIATION
29/1209Z.
Around 0830Z, there was no marine layer depth at KLAX.
Moderate-to-high confidence in the current forecast. Higher confidence for desert terminals. Less confidence for coastal and valley terminals.
Ceilings at or below 6000 feet are likely, especially for terminals north of KSBA. A frontal boundary will move over the region between 15Z and 23Z. There is a moderate-to-high chance of MVFR conditions in rain along the frontal boundary, highest from KSBA north.
KLAX...Ceilings at or below 6000 feet will develop between 18Z and 20Z. There is a 30 percent chance of MVFR conditions in rain between 21Z and 22Z. Any easterly winds will remain less than 7 knots.
KBUR...Ceilings at or below 6000 feet will develop between 18Z and 20Z. There is a 40 percent chance of MVFR conditions in rain between 21Z and 22Z. Any easterly winds will remain less than 7 knots.
MARINE
29/255 AM.
Winds and seas will remain below Small Craft Advisory (SCA)
levels through early Thursday morning.
For the waters southwest through northwest of the Channel Islands and along the Central Coast, winds will increase and seas will build between early Thursday morning and Thursday afternoon. The chance for SCA level winds will increase to 90-100 percent by 1 pm PST Thursday. There is a 40-70 percent chance of GALE FORCE winds between late Thursday afternoon and late Friday night, highest west of a line from Point Sal to San Nicolas Island to 60 NM offshore. There is a moderate-to-high chance short-period hazardous between late Thursday night and Friday. Winds and seas will diminish some late Friday night into Saturday, but there is a 40-60 percent chance of SCA level winds lingering into Sunday.
Inside the southern California, winds and seas will increase to SCA levels between late Thursday morning through Thursday night.
There is a 40-70 percent chance of widespread SCA conditions with short-period hazardous seas and gusty west to northwest winds by 8 pm PST Thursday night increasing to 70-100 percent by 8 am PST Friday. An extended period of winds and seas above SCA levels is likely to occur Friday and Friday night, before winds and seas start to diminish late Friday night. Winds and seas should drop below SCA levels between Saturday and Sunday, except for a 40-60 percent chance of SCA level winds across the western portion of the Santa Barbara Channel.
