Cool conditions and excellent relative humidity recoveries and retentions will continue through tomorrow as a low pressure system moves through the area. Light rain chances will begin to taper off tonight for the North Bay and Bay Area with chances lingering into tomorrow for the Central Coast with most locations expected to receive less than a tenth of an inch of rain. Friday kickoffs a warming and drying trend with near to slightly above normal temperatures and poor to moderate relative humidity recoveries and retentions in the higher elevations. Note : All winds are 20-foot Winds Unless otherwise specified. Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds. ...Discussion from Los Angeles/Oxnard... ...MODERATE RISK OF FLASH FLOODING AND DEBRIS FLOWS OVER SOME INTERIOR MOUNTAINS AND VALLEYS THURSDAY, FLASH FLOOD WATCH ISSUED... ...CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY... An unseasonable low pressure system, currently 100 miles west of Monterey, will swing through southwest California Thursday into Friday. This will result in continued cool and moist conditions through Friday. This system is unstable, and the chance for thunderstorms and locally heavy rain is growing. The greatest risk is over interior San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Ventura Counties where several projections are showing rain rates exceeding 1 inch per hour. This includes the Hurricane and Apache burn scars where there is a moderate risk for significant debris flows. The Lake Fire is also of concern, but the risk is lower. While most of the projections push the system off to the east by Friday, some are much slower and shift the risks into Los Angeles County on Friday. While the risk is low for debris flows over the Post and Bridge burn scars, it is not zero and will continue to be assessed. Coastal and valley areas also have a chance for rain, but the risk for heavy rain is very low. Winds will be light tonight, then increase on Thursday and Friday with a significant wind shift from southeast to northwest as the low moves through. High pressure will quickly build aloft over the weekend, with steady and significant warming and drying into early next week. $$ ECC028-191730- Santa Barbara County excluding Los Padres National Forest- Discussion for Santa Barbara ECC Dispatch 418 PM PDT Wed Sep 18 2024 ...MODERATE RISK OF FLASH FLOODING AND DEBRIS FLOWS OVER SOME INTERIOR MOUNTAINS AND VALLEYS THURSDAY, FLASH FLOOD WATCH ISSUED... ...CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
