KEY MESSAGE 1...SFC high pressure will continue to build in
from the west, while troughing continues aloft. This will keep

keeping it fairly pleasant for late July.

.AVIATION /10Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Pred VFR conditions expected through the period with light
winds. NW downslope flow brought a drier airmass into the
region yday but given recent heavy rains, mostly clear skies
overnight and light to calm winds, cannot completely rule out
some brief patchy shallow ground fog pre dawn this morning.
HREF and REFS probs are below 10 percent for fog development but
often don`t capture shallow ground fog that well. Shallow patchy
fog possible again early Fri morning.

Outlook (Friday through Monday): Much drier through the end of
the week as high pres rebuilds. Periods of early morning fog
and/or stratus possible each night. Periods of sub-VFR may
develop Sun with increasing precip chances ahead of an
approaching front.

&&

.MARINE...
High pressure will build in from the west the next few days,
keeping light to occasionally moderate winds across the waters.
Latest obs show light and variable winds 5-10 kt with seas 2-4
ft. Winds become N/NW 5-15 kt this morning, diminishing to 5-10
kt this afternoon. Variable winds 5-10 kt will continue
overnight with 2-4 ft seas.

Outlook: Flow becomes more southerly late Fri and Fri night.
Southerly winds will strengthen Sunday ahead of an approaching
front. SCA conditions appear likely for portions of the coastal
waters late Sunday into Monday.
