SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
145 PM PDT THU AUG 29 2002

NOT TOO MUCH CHANGE IN THE WEATHER THROUGH SUNDAY, WITH A COUPLE
DEGREES OF WARMING EACH DAY AND MARINE LYR BEING MORE AND MORE
CONFINED TO THE COASTAL ZONES. AM DISCOUNTING THE MESO ETA 975 MB
FORECAST WHICH CALLS FOR ESSENTIALLY NO MARINE LYR SOUTH OF POINT
CONCEPTION AFTER FRIDAY. THE TREND MIGHT BE RIGHT, BUT WITH THE TROF
STILL LINGERING ALONG THE WEST COAST UNTIL SAT I WOULD THINK THAT
THERE WOULD BE AT LEAST SOME MARINE LYR CLOUDS ALONG THE COAST, IF NOT
EXTENDING LOCALLY INLAND. WILL GO WITH ONE MORE NIGHT OF MARINE LYR
CLOUDS IN THE VALLEY THEN CLEAR THINGS OUT FOR THE WEEKEND. THIS MIGHT
BE A BIT OPTIMISTIC, BUT WILL GO WITH THAT IDEA FOR NOW. ALONG THE
COAST THINGS MIGHT BE A LITTLE TRICKIER. WITH WARMING ALOFT AND NEAR
NEUTRAL TO SLIGHTLY ONSHORE GRADIENTS, CLOUDS MIGHT TEND TO LINGER AT
THE BEACHES WELL INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS. AS USUAL, EXPECT SOME
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE MARINE LYR FORECAST AS WE GO ALONG.

OF THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS, LABOR DAY WILL LIKELY BE THE WARMEST WITH
WARMEST VALLEY TEMPS GETTING CLOSE TO THE CENTURY MARK. THEN A COOLING
TREND WILL BEGIN AS THE NEXT TROF APPROACHES THE PAC NW. 

THE TROPICAL PACIFIC IS STARTING TO GET QUITE ACTIVE NOW. LAST WEEK
THERE WAS FAUSTO, NOW WE HAVE A DYING GENEVIEVE, AND THE AVN IS
SHOWING ANOTHER DEVELOPING TROPICAL SYSTEM (WHICH WOULD BE HERNAN IF
IT DOES DEVELOP) FOR LATE THIS WEEKEND OR EARLY NEXT WEEK. THERE DOES
NOT APPEAR TO BE ANY CREDIBLE THREAT OF SIGNIFICANT MOISTURE INTRUSION
FROM THESE SYSTEMS, BUT WE WILL LIKELY SEE SOME SOUTHERLY SWELLS FROM
TIME TO TIME.
