Re: 7 Day Forecast:Update; Low Snow Levels Heavy Rain

This is not the main storm....The dry atmosphere is being replaced by very wet and cold moisture coming in from the north as predicted. Any cloud formation with enough moisture with it will drop Virgo and light showers, perhaps even some thunderstorms over the mountains.

This is just the beginning. Gary

I was referring to the dry air over the south land that is being replaced by moist onshore air. It is not quite saturated enough for all of the moisture that was in those clouds to produce even more than showers.

Showers that fall that do not reach the ground are called virga. Oh heck I misspelled it.

Virga, virgo, I still don't know what the hell you're talking about with the weather buzzwords, Gary....

I dont know of another word for it other than the moisture falling evaporates before it hits the ground. The process for this is called virga.

6:PM update;
It looks like a series of storms will be moving over the south Land over the next 5 to 7 days. If they move as they are currently moving we will have a few hours of rain and then a few hours of showers.

If the storms slow down then the rainfall will increase. Right now we are looking at 1 to 2 inches along the coast and LA Basin, 3 to 4 inches of rain against the up slope west facing foothills and MT's.

Sunday night snow level will start out at 7,000 feet lowering to 5,000 feet my Monday afternoon. By Tuesday Morning snow levels could be down to 3500 feet affecting all pass's.

Wednesday Morning could see snow levels dip even further as more cold air filters in from the north, perhaps as low as 2500 feet in the Antalope valley and Palmdale landcaster areas. During briedf periods of heavy rain in thunderstorms the snow levels could drop to valley floor levels or 1500 feet.

Again, this all depends on the speed and timing of the arrival of the storm impulses and the cold air. Daytime highs will average 25 degrees below normal all areas.

Snow amounts of 12 to 30 inches are possible at all resort levels with 6 inches possible at 3,000 feet. Mammoth could see as much 6 feet of new snow and the northern Sierras and the Cascades could see snow fall measured in feet.

8:PM Update

8:PM Update;

Orange County Coastal Areas-San Diego County Coastal Areas- San Bernardino And Riverside County Valleys-The Inland Empire- San Diego County Valleys-San Bernardino County Mountains- Riverside County Mountains-Santa Ana Mountains And Foothills- San Diego County Mountains-Apple And Lucerne Valleys- Coachella Valley-San Diego County Deserts- 525 Am PST Fri Dec 12 2008 ...

Cold And Rainy Weather Pattern For Southwest California...

A Deep Low Pressure Trough Developing Over The West Will Send A Series Of Weather Systems Into Southern California Next Week...Bringing Periods Of Rain And Mountain Snow At Times.

The First Chance Of Precipitation Will Be This Weekend As The Marine Layer Rapidly Deepens. A Better Chance Of More Significant Precipitation Will Be Monday And Tuesday When A Stronger Storm Moves Inland. Cooler Weather With Periods Of Rain Will Continue Through Much Of Next Week.

Preliminary Rainfall Estimates This Weekend Through The Middle Of Next Week Range From About One To Two Inches West Of The Mountains...Two To Four Inches On The West Facing Mountain Slopes And Up To About An Inch In The Deserts.

Snow Levels Will Start Out Above 7000 Feet And Then Lower To About 4000 To 5000 Feet Monday Through Thursday...Although It Could Get Locally Lower down To 2500 Feet In the Inland Valleys and 1500 Feet in The Colder Wind Protected Areas.

There Could Be One To Two Feet Of Snow At The Higher Elevations Of The San Bernardino And Riverside County Mountains With About Half A Foot In The San Diego Mountains And On The Peaks Of The Santa Ana Mountains.

Snow...Blowing Snow And Dense Fog Will Make Travel Hazardous Through The Mountains During This Period. Periods Of Heavy Rain Will Increase The Flash Flood Potential. Residents Living In And Below Recently Burned Areas Should Be Prepared For Possible Flash Flooding And Debris Flow. People Planning Outdoor Activities Should Monitor The Latest Weather Forecasts.

Why is it that people who never pay attention to the weather are always the first to complain.
