Posted by John . Filed under General |

Special Weather Statement from the National Weather Service:

SIGNIFICANT WEATHER CHANGE COMING TO SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA
BY THIS WEEKEND…

AFTER A SECOND VERY WARM DAY WITH NEAR RECORD HIGH
TEMPERATURES…RELIEF IS IN SIGHT. A SIGNIFICANT COOLING TREND
WILL BEGIN THURSDAY AND CONTINUE INTO SUNDAY.

A SERIES OF COLD FRONTS MOVING INLAND TO THE NORTH WILL BEAT DOWN
THE STRONG HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS NEAR RECORD
HEAT.

TEMPERATURES ON THURSDAY ARE EXPECTED TO AT BE LEAST 10 DEGREES
COOLER AT COASTAL AND VALLEYS LOCATIONS AND AROUND 5 DEGREES
COOLER OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS.

ANOTHER 5 TO 10 DEGREES OF COOLING IS EXPECTED BOTH FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY.

SO BY THE WEEKEND TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO BE 15 TO 30 DEGREES
COOLER THAN TODAY…WEDNESDAY.

IT WILL ALSO BE WINDIER…ESPECIALLY OVER THE DESERTS WHERE WINDS
MAY BE GUSTING OVER 50 MPH.

AND IT SHOULD BE MUCH CLOUDIER. THE MARINE LAYER IS EXPECTED TO
DEEPEN TO THE COASTAL SLOPES OF THE MOUNTAINS THIS WEEKEND.

AND BY SATURDAY NIGHT…THERE IS A CHANCE OF LIGHT RAIN.
