.DISCUSSION...FOR EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ORANGE...
SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES...

This Morning...A low pressure trough moving inland over the region will
bring increased mid and high clouds in an organized band, along
with a deeper marine layer. The deeper marine layer will allow low
clouds and fog to spread farther inland this morning and again
tonight into Sunday morning before the trough moves east. The
deeper marine layer will also bring a chance for drizzle west of
the mtns this morning. It could repeat on Sunday morning but high-
res models indicate that the chances are lower for Sunday
morning. High temperatures today will be generally below seasonal
averages...by anywhere from a couple of degrees to as much as 15
degrees. Sunday won`t be as cool with temperatures ranging from a
few degrees above normal in the high deserts to a few degrees
below normal in most other areas. Stronger onshore flow with the
trough will bring locally strong and gusty westerly winds in the
mtns and adjacent desert areas through tonight and again Sunday
night.

A little warmer and less breezy with somewhat less marine layer
low clouds and fog for Monday as a transient ridge moves over
SoCal on Monday. Daytime high temperatures will be near normal in
most areas.

Another low pressure system forms a closed upper low over SoCal on
Tuesday, deepening the marine layer for more night and morning
low clouds and fog. The upper low doesn`t seem to bring any cooler
air into the region and inland high temperatures show a slight
increase for Tuesday afternoon.

Model solutions mostly show the warming trend continuing from
midweek to next weekend. At this time, it looks like Friday is
likely to be the warmest day with daytime high temperatures
reaching the low 90s in the IE and reaching triple digits in the
lower deserts. This, in spite of the presence of a couple of upper
level low pressure systems in the vicinity. Night and morning low
clouds/fog will continue in the coastal areas and valleys through
next week, with some day-to-day variation.

Beyond Tuesday, confidence in forecast details isn`t very high
since there remains significant spread in the solutions from
ensemble members across model platforms.
