TODAY’S WEATHER DISCUSSION AND FORECAST:

Good Morning.
Forecast Trends: Warmer Weather through Thursday with temperatures tp peak Wednesday, then cooler Thursday and Friday.
..This morning there is a shallow Marine layer trying to make into the IE. Whatever makes it in tho the IE will clear out by early this morning.
..Today, High pressure now to over Northern Mexico and Texas, will expand West through the first part of the work week, bringing in warmer temperatures through Wednesday.
..Tuesday the area of High pressure will be located over Northern Baja, by Wednesday, the center of the High will be just West of SoCal over the Pacific.
..Thursday will be a transitional day as a Trough will pass through the PAC-NW. Temperatures locally will be cooler Thursday and Friday. Gusty winds may develop locally as the Trough passes through the area. The Marine layer will likely deepen as well moving back into the Valley during the morning hours.
..This is where things get tricky. For Friday, we may see a short offshore flow develop as the West Coast Trough moves East. However, a Tropical Storm will be in the region to our South, off of Baja by then, so we may see an influx of Moisture from the South get drawn up in the flow. A weak cut off Low will be offshore leftover from the passing Trough, and High pressure will be building to our East. So the circulations around each of these systems will make for an interesting set of parameters for the long range outlook. At this time, it looks like we will be in for a pattern change as the Tropical system moves into the area bringing moisture up from the South. This should last through the first week of September. Currently, the forecast charts show this Tropical system moving up the Baja peninsula and bobbeling around just offshore for several days, bringing moisture in from the South then eventually moving onshore in SoCal. This will give us a chance for some moisture next week.
..To our North, the Jet Stream will become active in that, a couple of fairly deep Lows will pass through to our North during that same time. Typically when the Low pressure systems pass to our North we get an offshore flow, but due to the other factors, things may get interesting??? As it looks this morning, we may see the Monsoonal Moisture return as soon as Saturday locally and increase through the following week as a couple of Tropical systems move North along Baja California.
..So as you can see, things look like they will get complicated in the coming days. More on that as things get ironed out. *RC
..As we head into the latter part of Summer and the Fall Season, the local Forest vegetation is drying out. Fuel moistures are below average now, and the Fire Danger levels are on the rise. Be sure to check Fire Regulations before camping to make sure of current Fire Regulations. Also I will be posting the Fire Danger levels on the WX Alerts page for a more in depth look at the local fire weather..(Website).

Yesterday’s High and Low temperatures were:
Crestline-79/61*, Twin Peaks-75/58*, Lk Arrowhead-77/63*, Running Springs-72/59*, Big Bear-78/40*, GVL-76/55*, San Berdo-96/59*, Wtrmn Cyn-82/56*.

TODAY’S WEATHER DISCUSSION AND FORECAST:

Good Morning.
..Forecast Trends; cooler, then warmer, as we continue to have Troughs, and areas of High pressure, alternate through the region.
..Finally got the Internet working again after SCE pole replacement damaged the Internet line to my house. Ehh! Thank you Spectrum for your quick customer service.
..Today we will be under a weak Trough moving Inland through the PAC-NW. Onshore flow will help to keep temperatures in check locally as well as several degrees cooler through Sunday. This morning Fog moved into the IE running around 1500′ thick. Tonight and tomorrow morning the Marine layer will deepen some and return into the IE again clearing out by the mid morning hours.
..Monday the Trough will be on it’s way to the East, while a Ridge of High pressure now over the Southwestern States will move West toward SoCal.
..Tuesday through Thursday, temperatures will warm up as High pressure builds across the region from the East. An Excessive Heat Warning will go into effect for the Inland Valleys, and Deserts, Tuesday through Thursday as well.
..Friday and Saturday, another Trough will push through the PAC-NW. As that system moves out late Sunday and or Monday, we could see our first weak Santa Ana winds of the Season as the back side of the departing area of Low pressure moves through the Great Basin.
..Offshore a Tropical Depression will be moving North Paralleling the West Coast, possibly arriving next weekend. Depending on the track this takes over the next few days, we could see an influx of Tropical Moisture from that. So that will be worth watching as we get closer to that time frame. *RC
..As we head into the latter part of Summer and the Fall Season, the local Forest vegetation is drying out. Fuel moistures are below average now, and the Fire Danger levels are on the rise.

TODAY’S WEATHER DISCUSSION AND FORECAST:

Good Morning.
Trends..Not much change in our weather pattern for the next week or so. We will continue to have alternating areas of High pressure moving in from the East, toward the West, with Troughing moving through from the PAC-NW in between.
..Today and Thursday will be HOT across the region. San Bernardino can expect highs today in the 103-107* range. I was down there yesterday and actually had a reading of 107* on my cars temperature gauge for a brief time. So I don’t expect it to be any different today. Thursday we may see a couple of degrees of cooling across the area but any significant cooling won’t begin until Friday..
..A Trough will move through the PAC-NW on Friday and Saturday. This will bring some cooling to the area of 5-10* by Saturday. Onshore flow will increase as the Trough moves through along with a deepening Marine layer. We may see some gusty South West winds Friday evening, and Saturday as well. Our skies will remain mostly clear through the period with only a few high clouds at times.
..To our South, Tropical Disturbances continue to develop, but conditions are not favorable for Hurricane development at this time. So they come and go with little to no effect on the West Coast weather trends. However, September typically is a busy month for the NHC (National Hurricane Center) as well as early October. We typically have a few storms that affect SoCal over the Summer Hurricane season as they die out along the Western Coastal Region of Baja Ca while moving North. As it looks on the long range outlook today, we may see something toward the end of the month moving North along the Baja peninsula and into SoCal as a remnant storm. *RC
..As we head into the latter part of Summer and the Fall Season, the local Forest vegetation is drying out. Fuel moistures are below average now, and the Fire Danger levels are on the rise. Be sure to check Fire Regulations before camping to make sure of current Fire Regulations.

TODAY’S WEATHER DISCUSSION AND FORECAST:

Good Morning.
For the next few days, we will see increased FIRE DANGER LEVELS for our area. Please be careful with any type of fire.
Trends, Monday through Wednesday, temperatures will be on the rise. Thursday through the Weekend, temperatures will begin cooling.
..Today an area of High pressure now centered over Louisiana, will begin to expand West. This will bring in warmer air to SoCal for the next few days. By Thursday, this area of High pressure will have moved offshore of California. The area of High pressure will set up with an East to West axis along the U.S. Border, and South from there. Kinda strange?? So there will not be any Monsoonal Moisture for our area.
.. Meanwhile, another Trough of Low pressure will move into the PAC-NW late in the week. This will bring in cooler air to the West Coast and all of SoCal beginning Thursday afternoon. As the Trough deepens, we will be in a cooling trend through the weekend before the Trough moves East Sunday.
..Gusty winds will develop in the afternoon hours each day as diurnal heating and cooling takes place. There is not much upper level moisture around the area so we should have nice clear skies through the period.
..A Tropical Storm is developing off of Baja California currently, but doesn’t look like it will have any effect on our weather here as the NHC has it going out to Sea over the next few days. *RC
..As we head into the latter part of Summer and the Fall Season, the local Forest vegetation is drying out. Fuel moistures are below average now, and the Fire Danger levels are on the rise.

TODAY’S WEATHER DISCUSSION AND FORECAST:

Good Morning.
..Thank you to Joel @Progressivesites.com for keeping this website up and running!!
..Well the folks in Erwin Lake, Big Bear, had a little surprise this morning of 35*. Brrr!
..Today for the mountain areas we will have clear skies and gusty winds at times, mainly during the afternoon hours. Daytime high temperatures will be a little cooler with highs in the upper 70s and a few area into the low 80s through the weekend.
..Our weather will be governed by a 570dm area of Low pressure, currently off of Nor-Cal, with a trailing Trough extending South along the West Coast. This will keep us in a South West, or onshore flow, through the next several days. The Pressure gradient from San Diego to Daggett is currently at 4mbs, onshore. As the Low slowly moves to the Northeast today and tomorrow, we will continue to be in a Zonal flow aloft across the Southwest through mid week next week. So not much change for a few more days. This time of year, High pressure is usually set up around the four corners region with warm temperatures in the West as well as occasional Monsoonal flow into the Colorado River area, lower Dreserts, and Big Bear. However, the center of the High is currently, anomalously, situated South and East of the Four Corners Region, over Eastern Texas. This will remain the case through early next week before retrograding West, however the area of High pressure will remain further South than normal as it relocates mid week next week, so it doesn’t look like we will see the Monsoonal flow returning any time soon.
..Temperatures for Monday through Wednesday will warm up a few degrees before the next Trough moves into the West again later in the work week next week.
So overall, we have returned to a Troughing pattern along the West Coast for the time being. *RC
..As we head into the latter part of Summer and the Fall Season, the local Forest vegetation is drying out. Fuel moistures are below average now, and the Fire Danger levels are on the rise. Be sure to check Fire Regulations before camping to make sure of current Fire Regulations.
