Mild on Central Coast but windy for Lopez and strong for Isabella. Entire Southern California sees moderate winds.

Central Coast A tiny storm system off San Francisco diverts the North Pacific High’s surface NW winds around the Central California coast so the coast sees mild W to WSW wind. However, a strong pressure

gradient towards the China Lake Basin to the Great Basin helps Lopez and brings blasts to Isabella. Unstable air makes Lopez up and down.



Southern California The marine layer clouds are inland this AM but mostly clear midday. There is a strong low-pressure from the Great Basin to Yuma, AZ zone accelerates the mild ocean winds towards the entire coast so lots of mid to upper-teens wind.
