SAN DIEGO...WESTERN RIVERSIDE AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTIES...

.Morning Update...

Marine layer clouds will retreat to the coast by later this
morning with minimal clearing at the beaches into the afternoon.
Clouds will move back inland fairly quickly by the evening,
spreading into all areas west of the mountains overnight into
Monday morning. This morning`s sounding in San Diego reveals a
drier atmosphere as PWAT values are now below one inch. This,
along with a stronger mid level inversion, will only garner
minimal thunderstorm chances over the mountain crests this
afternoon. Hi-res models also show barely anything noticeable, so
a weak shower may occur if you`re lucky. Otherwise, the forecast
remains on track to see dry and cooler than normal weather through
the week.

.Previous Discussion (225 AM Sunday)...

The upper low over SoCal will gradually evolve into an open wave
through Monday as a low/trough over the Pacific Northwest deepens.
The sub-tropical high is displaced to the southeast over the Gulf
States. Extensive low pressure troughing will dominate the pattern
this week, continuing the drying trend as monsoonal moisture is
displaced to the east with the sub-tropical high. This will
continue to keep daytime high temperatures near or below seasonal
averages for all areas, including the lower deserts. It will also
maintain a persistent marine layer which will continue to bring
low clouds and patchy fog into the coastal areas and valleys each
night and morning. Model solutions remain in good agreement
through mid-week so forecast confidence is high for that period.
Solutions diverge somewhat as we approach next weekend so
confidence in forecast details is a little lower.
