Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA
1011 AM PDT Mon Jul 28 2025
.SYNOPSIS...28/929 AM.
Onshore flow will continue through the week as an upper-level
trough of low pressure remains anchored along the West Coast. Night
through morning low clouds and fog will remain in the forecast
for most coastal and valley locations, but the marine layer will
thin some through midweek as high pressure aloft the southeastern
United States builds west. A slow warming trend will take shape,
most pronounced away from the coast.
&&
.SHORT TERM (TDY-WED)...28/939 AM.
***UPDATE***
Quiet weather pattern continues today and is expected to remain
that way through the week despite a moderate warming trend that
will increase high temperatures by 2-4 degrees each day through
Wednesday, most notably across inland areas. With that warming
will come a less extensive and earlier clearing marine layer. Not
expecting any significant changes to the forecast through the
week.
NOTE: The Oxnard office will be undergoing system updates today
that may cause a 1-2 hour delay in some forecast products this
afternoon.
***From Previous Discussion***
Moderately to strong onshore flow remains in place across the
area this morning and will likely stick around through today, but
onshore flow is progged to weaken over the coming days. Ensemble
surface pressure gradients indicate weakening taking place along
the South Coast of California, but moderate to strong onshore flow
is likely to remain wedged in along the Central Coast of
California. The onshore flow regime will weaken for areas south of
Point Conception due to the influence of the ridge building west
over the coming days. While to the north, the flow regime will
vary little due to the persistent trough. The marine layer depth
will thin across the Southland, but along the Central Coast,
clouds will likely struggle to clear from the land mass each day.
With 500 mb heights increasing each day and the marine layer depth
not changing much, clouds are likely to sock in the beaches along
the Central Coast. EPS cloud cover means agree with this
assessment, keeping clearing at a minimum for K87Q, KVBG, and
KLPC. Meanwhile, better clearing and less marine layer coverage
will occur across the Southland.
With heights climbing, a gradual warming trend will establish,
especially outside of the marine layer depth. The air mass should
pop above normal toward midweek across the higher valleys,
mountains, and desert, while temperatures will likely remain on
the cool side of normal at the beaches and immediate coastal
locales. Persistence may end up being the best forecast for the
Central Coast beaches through midweek.
With the cooler air mass to the northwest of the area and a warmer
air mass over southeastern California, a tighter northwest surface
gradient should develop. Gusty Sundowner winds will likely enter
the picture, possibly reaching advisory levels on Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings. Wednesday evening looks to be the most likely
period for advisory level winds to develop. KSBA-KSMX surface
pressure gradients tighten around -3.5 mb both evening, but the
low-level pattern is a tad more supportive on Wednesday evening.
.LONG TERM (THU-SUN)...28/236 AM.
Another weak trough will move over central California on Wednesday
and likely increase onshore flow and deepen the marine layer depth
Wednesday night and into Thursday. Then, EPS and GEFS ensemble
members indicate 500 mb heights climbing again for late week. A
warming trend should resume between Thursday and Saturday.
Although there is a quite a bit of spread between the
perturbations of each ensemble, WPC cluster analysis favors a
similar upper-level pattern remaining in place with 500 mb
heights increasing through at least Friday. There is a good chance
of cooling over the weekend.

.AVIATION...28/1710Z.
At 1606Z at KLAX, the marine layer was around 1900 ft deep. The
top of the inversion was at 5200 feet with a max temperature of
19 C.
High confidence in VFR TAFs for desert sites (KWJF and KPMD).
Low confidence in KPRB from 10Z to 16Z Tue where there is a 20%
chance for LIFR to IFR conditions.
Moderate confidence in remaining TAFs. Arrival and departure of
CIGs may be off +/- 2 hours. Minimum cig height may be off +/- 300
ft. There is a 20% chance for no low clouds at KBUR/KVNY tonight.
KLAX...Moderate confidence in 18Z TAF. Arrival and departure of
CIGs may be off +/- 2 hours. Minimum cig height may be off +/-
300 ft. No significant easterly wind component expected.
KBUR...Moderate confidence in 18Z TAF. Arrival and departure of
CIGs may be off +/- 2 hours. Minimum cig height may be off +/-
300 ft. There is a 20% chance for no low clouds tonight.
&&
.MARINE...28/741 AM.
High confidence in unseasonably small (but choppy) seas through
Tuesday morning, then seas are likely to build to 6-8 feet across
the Outer Waters Tuesday night and last through the week. High
confidence in Small Craft Advisory (SCA) winds for the Outer
Waters and Inner Waters along the Central Coast through Thursday
night, with the exception of lull this morning for the waters
south of Pt Sal. Nearshore SCA level winds along the Central
Coast will be confined to afternoon and evening hours. Moderate
confidence in winds continuing into Friday and over the weekend.
For Wednesday night, there is a a 30% chance of low-end Gales for
the Outer Waters, with best chances from around Point Conception
south to San Nicolas Island.
The western portion of the Santa Barbara Channel will reach SCA
during the evenings though at least Thursday. There is a moderate
chance for winds to extend into eastern portions of the Channel
through Thursday, with highest chances Wednesday. Local gusts to
20 kt may occur each afternoon around Pt Dume and into the San
Pedro Channel.
