AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
ONTARIO WEATHER SERVICE ONTARIO CA
Sunday, September 18, 2005 4:35 PM
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISCUSSION ... FOR ALL OF SOUTHWESTERN CALIFORNIA INCLUDING ALL OF
ORANGE COUNTY ... SOUTHERN LOS ANGELES COUNTY ... WESTERN RIVERSIDE
COUNTY ... AND SOUTHWESTERN SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY ...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYNOPSIS....Winter Storm Andrew has not developed yet. The winter storm
names are only assigned to low pressure centers that hit the Southern
California area. A cold front is sliding north of us. In result to this
a cutoff low pressure system from the tail end is rotating off the coast
of Central California. This Low Pressure system is progged to come in
North of the forecast area on Tuesday. It's not a big deal of a system,
so no alerts will be given, however the low pressure system will be
rotating counter-clockwise. This combined with a strong high pressure
over Texas will result in a subtropical moisture feed. This could cause
showers and even thunderstorms in the Mountains, and Deserts, and even
possibly the forecast area. We will continue to watch this.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRE-STORM FACTS: We use this section to tell you the conditions before
the storm. If we tell you a condition and it comes true when we say it,
expect the storm to be on track! The condition is high clouds. 500MB RH
Monday afternoon shows alot of high clouds over the forecast area. If
you step out at 5pm, you will see a blanket of high clouds. If you see
these, the storm is on track.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...SHORT RANGE DISCUSSION...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE RAIN CHANCES... The rain chances looked slim yesterday, but they are
looking alot better today. While this isn't your typical cold frontal
storm, it will officially NOT be named. To be named the storm must have
a front of some kind, and cold core dynamics over the forecast area.
This has none as the dynamics needed go north of us into the Sacramento
Valley. Moisture streams in from the south very fast on Monday night. We
are still on track for a humid atmosphere when you wake up for work or
school on Tuesday Morning. The rain chances should start at around 10PM
Monday Night, and last till Tuesday evening when the Low center moves NE
of us, and brings in drier more stable air.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE THUNDERSTORM CHANCES... If you remember the storms on August 15th
this year. The ones that had lightning everywhere. This could be a
repeat, but I'm not promising anything till tomorrows AFD. CAPE values
aren't all that great on Monday night, however by Tuesday morning, and
Afternoon they get much better. Thunderstorms could form as early as
Monday evening over the mountains and deserts. More so over the San
Gabriel Mountains than the Riverside, or San Bernardino Mountains.
Before midnight, going into Tuesday morning we could even see
Thunderstorms developing over the forecast area. Right over your house
even as dynamics are strong enough. We will keep watching this, and
another forecast tomorrow, the last one before the storm hits will
determine 100% what will happen. We are 75% confident in this forecast
now.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WIND CHANCES... The winds in this are interesting now. Along the Los
Angeles, and Orange County coastal areas we have low level winds
exceeding 30MPH. This is at 3,000 feet everyone, and this is an
interesting setup. I'm not going to put this on hot water, but the
possibility of tornadoes on Monday Night and Tuesday Morning could be
interesting. We will not bite on this just yet as tomorrow will tell
what will happen more. The winds should be lighter in the Inland Empire
region.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MEDIUM RANGE DISCUSSION...After the system passes we will return to the
weather we've been seeing for the last 2 weeks. Tranquil, and just
plain boring, however something looks like its lurking on the horizon.
Could this turn into Winter Storm Andrew, or is it going to play around
out there? This all happens September 24th and 25th it seems. Stay
tuned!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today..Partly Cloudy

Monday...Partly Cloudy morning, then mostly cloudy evening, with
increasing chances of showers and thunderstorms at night.

Tuesday...Chance of Showers and Thunderstorms morning, and afternoon,
partly cloudy skies night.

SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT

Sunday, September 18, 2005 4:23 PM

THE SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE FEED WILL IMPACT THE FORECAST AREA STARTING
MONDAY NIGHT, AND LASTING UNTIL TUESDAY NIGHT. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS, SOME SEVERE WILL START MONDAY NIGHT, AND BE NUMEROUS IN
PLACES. THE FORECAST AREA COULD SEE ACTION AS WELL, NOT JUST MOUNTAINS
AND DESERTS. THIS LOOKS DEATHLY LIKE THE AUGUST 15TH SEVERE STORMS THAT
HAPPENED IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS FROM 1AM TO 5AM BRINGING INTENSE
LIGHTNING, HAIL, AND HEAVY DOWNPOURS IF YOU REMEMBER. THIS STORM WILL
NOT BE NAMED AT ALL. IT'S JUST A SUBTROPICAL PLUME FEED OF MOISTURE
WITH SOME DYNAMICS.

Well IMHO when they wrote this I would've immediately discarded it as a fake/joke/hoax:

Winter Storm Andrew has not developed yet. The winter storm
names are only assigned to low pressure centers that hit the Southern
California area.

I would disregard it.

[Geomagnetic Man]

Yeah, I thought it was fake, till I saw the site. Its a real site with real naming of storms. Seems they've been doing this for some time. Since I live in Southern California I emailed the owner for more information on this service. Weird things happen on the internet, lol.
