.SYNOPSIS...
Above average temperatures this weekend with heat peaking on Sunday.
A slow cooling is expected through most of the week with highs
generally 5 degrees above average through Wednesday and closer to
normal heading into the end of the week. Night and morning low
clouds and fog can be expected each day along the coast and will
reach into portions of the valleys at times. Slight increase in
westerly winds expected over the mountains and into the deserts
early in the upcoming week.

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

Visible satellite at 1 PM was showing patchy low clouds lingering
along the coast. Low clouds and fog will move back inland this
evening, but are not expected to make it past the western valleys
tonight. Low clouds are expected to remain persistent each night
and morning for the coast into early next week, with high
resolution model guidance indicating better chances of widespread
clearing in the afternoons (yes, even for the beaches) tomorrow
and Monday. The marine layer is expected to deepen for the middle
to end of next week as a more amplified trough of low pressure
approaches the West Coast.

Building high pressure from the south will bring an increase in high
temperatures, which will peak on Sunday. On Sunday, high
temperatures will be around 5 degrees above average near the coast
and 10 degrees above average for inland locations. The High Desert
is likely (80-100% chance) to see high temperatures of 100 degrees
or more by Sunday, while the lower deserts have similar chances of
110 degrees or more. HeatRisk in the inland valleys, mountain
foothills, and deserts will be moderate, with locally high HeatRisk
in the low deserts on Sunday. NBM chance for the low desert to
exceed 115 degrees on Sunday is 15 percent or less. West of the
mountains, there is a 50 to 80 percent chance parts of the Inland
Empire will exceed 100 degrees and up to a 20 percent chance parts
of eastern San Diego County valleys will exceed 100 degrees Sunday.
Portions of inland Orange County (east of Interstate 5) have a 30 to
50 percent chance of temperatures exceeding 90 degrees.

A low pressure system moving inland through California early in the
week will strengthen onshore flow for Monday and Tuesday. This will
result in a slight increase in westerly winds over the mountains and
into the deserts. The weak low will also have minor impacts on
lowering high temperatures. Temperatures Monday are expected to be a
degree or two cooler than Sunday. Further cooling is expected into
Tuesday, with high temperatures around 5 degrees above average.
Wednesday may see a few degrees of warming away from the coast as
the ridge rebounds in the wake of the passing trough. Any increase
in temperatures will be short lived as another upper level trough
begins to deepen and move west across the Pacific Northwest for
the end of the week. While there are some differences in the
timing of the progression of this trough, the general consensus is
for cooling the remainder of the week, with these differences
determining just how much cooling will occur.

.AVIATION...
142015Z....Coast/Valleys...Low clouds have eroded out of the
majority of land areas, with local areas of BKN along the immediate
coast. Low clouds redevelop and push back ashore after 02Z Sunday.
Bases will likely be lower, closer to 600-1000 ft MSL with about 10-
15 miles of inland extent. Vis reductions of 3-6 SM along the coast
and 0-3 SM for higher coastal terrain and western valleys. Clouds
clear again 16-18Z Sun.

Otherwise...SCT-BKN high clouds and unrestricted VIS prevails
through Sunday morning.

&&

.MARINE...
No hazardous marine conditions are expected through Thursday.

&&

.BEACHES...
A 3 foot southerly (190 degrees) swell at 19 seconds will lead to
elevated surf of 3 to 6 feet, primarily for Orange County and
northern San Diego County beaches. A Beach Hazard Statement has been
issued through late Sunday evening. The swell`s period gradually
shortens to 17 seconds by Sunday, and the overall swell and surf
heights will wane late Sunday into Monday.

&&

.SKYWARN...
Skywarn activation is not requested. However weather spotters are
encouraged to report significant weather conditions.
