AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN DIEGO CA
855 PM PST FRI JAN 27 2012
.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG AND GUSTY NORTHEAST TO EAST WINDS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE 
REGION TONIGHT AND INTO SATURDAY...WITH THE STRONGEST WINDS 
OCCURRING MAINLY THROUGH AND BELOW THE FAVORED CANYONS AND PASSES.  
VERY DRY AND SLIGHTLY WARMER CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL ON 
SATURDAY...WITH A LITTLE COOLER CONDITIONS FOR SUNDAY.  DRY 
CONDITIONS AND THE COOLING TREND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY NEXT 
WEEK...WITH A GRADUAL WARMING TREND FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEKEND.
&&
.DISCUSSION...FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES...
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY CONTINUES TO SHOW A DISTURBANCE MOVING THROUGH 
THE DESERT SOUTHWEST THIS EVENING...WITH MOST OF THE HIGH CLOUDS NOW 
PUSHING EAST INTO ARIZONA.  BEHIND THIS DISTURBANCE...HIGH PRESSURE 
IS BUILDING INTO THE GREAT BASIN...RAISING THE SURFACE PRESSURE 
GRADIENTS ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA THIS EVENING.  AT THIS 
TIME...THE LINDBERGH TO TONOPAH GRADIENT IS UP TO -14.6 MBS...AND 
THE LINDBERGH TO DAGGETT GRADIENT IS CURRENTLY AT -6.9 MBS.  AS A 
RESULT...SKIES ARE CLEAR THIS EVENING...WITH BREEZY TO WINDY 
CONDITIONS KEEPING TEMPERATURES ON THE WARM SIDE AND MAINLY IN THE 
60S AND LOW 70S THIS EVENING.  PEAK GUSTS ARE CURRENTLY RANGING 
BETWEEN 45 AND 60 MPH AT THE WINDIEST LOCATIONS...WITH 25 TO 40 MPH 
ELSEWHERE.  THE 00Z MODELS ARE SHOWING THE GRADIENTS PEAKING AT 15 
MBS BETWEEN LINDBERGH AND TONOPAH AND UP TO 10 MBS BETWEEN LINDBERGH 
AND DAGGETT LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY MORNING.  THE UPPER 
LEVEL SUPPORT IS NOT THAT IMPRESSIVE...BUT GIVEN THE SURFACE 
GRADIENT AND THE INCREASING COLD AIR ADVECTION...SOME GUSTS UP TO 65 
OT 70 MPH AT THE FAVORED WINDY LOCATIONS THROUGH AND BELOW THE 
CANYON PASSES CANNOT BE RULED OUT.  NEEDLESS TO SAY...THESE WINDY 
CONDITIONS AND RELATIVELY MILD TEMPERATURES WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE 
REGION TONIGHT...SO HAVE QUICKLY UPDATED THE FORECAST...WARMING 
OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES A LITTLE BIT.  THESE WINDS WILL CONTINUE INTO 
SATURDAY...BUT DECREASE DURING THE DAY.
UPPER LEVEL FLOW BECOMES ZONAL SUNDAY...ALLOWING A TROUGH OF LOW 
PRESSURE TO MOVE ACROSS NORTHERN CALIFORNIA MONDAY AND TUESDAY.  AT 
THIS TIME...ANY PRECIPITATION SHOULD STAY WELL TO OUR NORTH...BUT 
THE ONSHORE FLOW WILL BRING SOME COOLER TEMPERATURES TO SOUTHERN 
CALIFORNIA.  THERE IS EVEN THE POTENTIAL FOR THE MARINE LAYER TO 
RETURN TO COASTAL AREAS.  HOWEVER...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER 
THE REGION AGAIN FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK...WITH DRY AND 
WARMER CONDITIONS DEVELOPING.  THE SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE 
GREAT BASIN WILL BRING PERIODS OF WEAK TO MODERATE OFFSHORE FLOW AND 
NORTHEAST WINDS AT TIMES.

.AVIATION...
280400...MAIN AVIATION WEATHER CONCERN WILL CONTINUE TO BE STG 
UDDFS/LLWS WITH WINDS NE-E 20-40KT IN THE 1000-6000 FT MSL LAYER AND 
SFC WIND GUSTS +50 KT THROUGH AND W/SW OF MTN GAPS. OTHERWISE SKC 
AND VSBY UNRESTRICTED.

.MARINE...
7 PM LIFEGUARD REPORTS HAD SURF OF 5 FEET AND VERY INFREQUENT SETS 
TO 7 FEET AT MISSION BEACH. OTHER BEACHES WERE SIMILAR AND SWELL 
CONTINUES TO DECREASE SO HAVE DROPPED THE HIGH SURF ADVISORY FOR ALL 
AREAS. HAVE CONTINUED THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR NORTHEAST WINDS 
GUSTING +25 KT THROUGH 8 AM SATURDAY MORNING ACROSS THE INNER AND 
OUTER COASTAL WATERS...MAINLY NORTH OF LINE FROM OCEANSIDE HARBOR TO 
THE SOUTHERN END OF SAN CLEMENTE ISLAND.  
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
GUSTY NORTHEAST TO EAST WINDS WILL ONCE AGAIN STRENGTHEN AND BECOME 
MORE WIDESPREAD TONIGHT.  WIND GUSTS WILL LIKELY EXCEED 60 MPH IN 
THE WIND PRONE LOCATIONS...MAINLY BELOW THE CAJON PASS AND IN THE 
SANTA ANA MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS.  WINDS WILL PEAK LATE TONIGHT AND 
SATURDAY MORNING IN THE NORTHERN AREAS AND LATE SATURDAY MORNING IN 
THE RIVERSIDE AND SAN DIEGO COUNTY MOUNTAINS...BEFORE RAPIDLY 
WEAKENING LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
ONLY MODERATE TO POOR HUMIDITY RECOVERIES ARE POSSIBLE 
TONIGHT...WITH DAYTIME HUMIDITIES DROPPING INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS 
AND LOW TEENS ON SATURDAY.  WHILE WINDS DECREASE SUBSTANTIALLY BY 
LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON...HUMIDITY RECOVERY SATURDAY NIGHT WILL BE 
POOR MOST LOCATIONS...AND DAYTIME HUMIDITY ON SUNDAY WILL ONCE AGAIN 
BE IN THE SINGLE DIGITS AND LOW TEENS.  THE COMBINATION OF LOW 
HUMIDITY AND GUSTY WINDS WILL GENERATE CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER 
CONDITIONS LATE TONIGHT AND ON SATURDAY. 
RECENT RAINFALL AND THE IMPACT ON FUELS WILL BE A MITIGATING 
FACTOR...BUT DUE TO STRONG WINDS AND VERY LOW HUMIDITIES...ANY LARGE 
FIRE STARTS COULD RESULT IN RAPID FIRE GROWTH.
