.SYNOPSIS...09/120 PM.

A warming trend will peak today and Thursday, with many areas 5
to 10 degrees above normal. Temperatures will return to near
normal over the weekend with increasing night and morning low
clouds and fog for coast and some coastal valleys.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TDY-SAT)...09/138 PM.

Today and Thursday will be the warmest days of the week as high
pressure over Arizona expands into California. Central Coast areas
are a day behind as the lingering trough over northern California
is limiting the warming there today. Will have another evening of
warm Sundowners across southwest Santa Barbara County with
widespread gusts of 25-35 and isolated gusts as high as 45-50 mph
in the Refugio area.

Another warm day Thursday with highs again 5-10 degrees above
normal. Marine layer stratus and dense fog will push inland
across the Central Coast and can`t rule out some patches of dense
fog across coastal LA County early Thursday.

A strong onshore trend on Friday will force cooler maritime air
into the valleys and bring high temperatures down 4-8 degrees
from Thursday. May also see increasing low clouds and fog near the
coast south of Pt Conception as well. Far interior areas will
remain hot but likely cool a degree or two. Increasing west to
southwest winds are expected for interior areas.

By Saturday most coast and valley areas will be back to normal day
time temperatures with areas of low clouds and fog working their
way into the valleys with again gusty onshore winds across the
interior.

.LONG TERM (SUN-WED)...09/155 PM.

Models continue to advertise very strong onshore flow next week,
but also still high pressure aloft. The marine inversion will
remain fairly low but should be deep enough to sneak into the
valleys for a few hours each morning. Low clouds will clear to
near the coast but some beaches may remain cloudy well into the
afternoon. Highs for coast and valleys will be 2-5 degrees below
normal through the period. Interior areas will remain seasonably
warm and will likely warm a couple degrees early next week. Gusty
onshore winds each afternoon will increase the fire danger there
each day.

Models also still indicating increasing easterly flow aloft by
Tue and Wed that will increase moisture aloft with at least a
5-10% chance of showers and thunderstorms locally. Low levels
remain quite dry but certainly can`t rule out some monsoon
showers with PW`s increasing rapidly to over an inch.
