DISCUSSION
AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE DOWN THE COAST EARLY
NEXT WEEK AND WILL STALL OFF CEN CA THROUGH LATE WEEK. THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT WILL INCREASE IN ADVANCE OF THE TROUGH, BRINGING STRONGER
WINDS SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THE MOISTENING NW FLOW WILL QUICKLY IMPROVE
MINIMUM RH AND OVERNIGHT RECOVERIES. SHOWERS POSSIBLE MONDAY WITH
MOISTURE WRAPPING NORTHWARD AROUND THE LOW. CHANCE OF WETTING
RAINFALL ARE CURRENTLY LOW, BUT THE POSITION OF THE STALLING LOW
MAY ALLOW FOR HIGHER CHANCES MONDAY. THERE WILL BE INSTABILITY WITH
THE LOW. CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS OVER LAND ARE CURRENTLY LOW (LESS THAN 5%),
BUT THE FORECAST WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED IF THE LOW TAPS INTO SUBTROPICAL
MOISTURE FROM THE SOUTH. THIS SCENARIO COULD ALSO GENERATE MORE
PRODUCTIVE RAIN PRODUCING SHOWERS MID TO LATE WEEK.
