New Aviation and Marine Discussion...

The marine layer is currently about 3500-4000 ft deep with an
inversion noticeably weaker than yesterday. This morning, the low
clouds had extended inland to the coastal mtn slopes but now most
areas are clearing except for the coastal areas of San Diego
County. The clearing is likely to continue for a few more hours
and the beaches of southern San Diego County could still see some
sunshine.

Weak, large-scale troughing over SoCal will be reinforced with
colder air as a low pressure system moves in from the northwest.
It will bring a cooling trend through Thursday. Wed and Thu are
likely to be the coolest days with daytime high temperatures 10-15
degrees below average in the inland valleys and deserts while the
mountains could be as much as 20 degrees below average. The
coastal areas will be near or a few degrees below average. This
system will also bring stronger onshore flow and a deepening
marine layer. Southwest to west winds will strengthen for Tue into
Thu with wind gusts of 35 to 45 mph in the mountains and deserts,
locally gusting to 65 mph in the favored locations. The marine
layer could deepen to about 5000 ft by Wed, and could produce patchy
drizzle or light rain west of the mtns each night and morning
into Thursday morning.

Toward the end of the week, temperatures rise as the low pressure
system moves east into the Rockies. Next Sun and Mon will likely
be the warmest days with temperatures generally a few degrees to
about 8 degrees above average. High temperatures for next Mon will
likely range from 70-75 near the coast to the low 90s for the
Inland Empire, with the lower deserts around 105. The marine layer
will also be shallower with night and morning low clouds not
spreading as far inland.

Diego County mountains. Low clouds are beginning to develop in
Orange County and along the edges of the Inland Empire, and will
continue to increase and spread throughout the coastal basin over
the next few hours. Patchy drizzle will be possible around 13-18Z as
the marine layer deepens. Highest chances will be in areas near the

3500ft MSL and scatter in the Inland Empire.
