Abrupt Weather Changes This Week

By Ken Howells at 2007-02-12 14:46

Looks like slight chance of rain Tuesday, followed by a switch to offshore Wed-Fri, with possible 80F+ on Friday.

From the 14:00 NWS Discussion:
THE LOCAL WIND PROGRAM USING THE 12Z GFS
MODEL CAME UP WITH +35 MPH GUSTS ON THURSDAY AND +50 MPH GUSTS ON
FRIDAY AT THE USUAL WIND PRONE LOCATIONS. AN ABRUPT END TO THIS
SANTA ANA EVENT IS ENVISIONED ON SATURDAY. THE RIDGE TO THE NORTH IS
ERODED BY THEN AND THE SOUTHERN STREAM OF THE WESTERLIES PICKS UP
THE CUTOFF LOW AND BRINGS IT UP FROM THE SOUTHWEST WHILE A TROUGH
DROPS DOWN FROM THE NORTHWEST. EXPECT A 25 DEGREE TEMPERATURE FALL
ON SATURDAY WEST OF THE MOUNTAINS AND ABOUT 10-15 DEGREES ELSEWHERE
DUE TO A COMBINATION OF THICKNESS FALLS AND CLOUD COVER.
