wx_statman Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 GFS MOS takes Avalon from 64/57 tomorrow to 93/79 by early next week. Probably overdoing the downsloping signal for the minimums. Showing 104 for Fullerton and 102 for Long Beach. Record territory for so late in the fall.

Also brought the latest 100 to Long Beach, along with a bunch of monthly records here in the PNW. You guys also had the heat wave in late Sep with the 113 in LA.

halofromajo Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Looks like a good Santa Ana is getting ready to setup for the next 4 days. Mon night into Tues looks like the best time frame. NWS in San Diego is only thinking 40 mph gust as the moment (in cajon), which looks okay with the pressure gradient that will be setting up. Models are a little bit more aggressive with these winds. The CA WRF has almost 60, but that may be over doing it because there will only be a 6mb gradient between SAN and TPH. Either way, with 850mb Temps at 20-22 Monday into Tues temperature will be soaring, with the IE getting close to many 100 in many location. Corona/Norco looks to be above 100 Monday. RH is going to be single digits of course, so the fire weather will be critical. Always holding my breath watching these develop from up here in SLC.

Anti Marine Layer Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 Today's temperatures will be similar to those of June 20, 2016 west of the mountains. That day was the longest day of the year. Today the sun will not even reach an elevation of 45 degrees above the horizon for L.A. and Orange County. If we were in standard time, sunset tonight would be 5:07 PM, just 21 minutes later than on the Winter Solstice. The Equation of Time is the reason for such early sunsets just one month into the fall. Today is the first of 21 days in a row that solar noon is either 12:34 PM or 11:34 AM.

wx_statman Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 Already up to 106 F in Fullerton. It will not make it to 122 F in Palm Springs, however. Incredible for this time of year. Too bad there isn't an official station with long term records in Fullerton. The closest is Anaheim, which only goes back to 1989. They've never been above 102 this late in the fall (11/3/2010). The closest long term station (Yorba Linda, back to 1912) has also never been above 102 this late, although they did reach 105 on 10/19/1940.

wx_statman Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 107 at Fullerton and 104 at Ontario Int'l today. Neither place has long-term records but I imagine these are the highest readings so late in the fall for these locations. At least 104 in Long Beach and 102 in downtown LA, which are both late-season records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
