¡Buenos dias! A couple of satellite passes last night measured NW winds at 10-15 knots, and the latest numerical model forecasts all show winds diminishing this morning, then a new surge of north flow reaching our area later this afternoon. Surface high pressure centered over the eastern Pacific will continue to build into the Baja Peninsula on Tuesday, with norte conditions developing. The norte will subside on Wednesday as the surface pressure gradient weakens, but model forecasts agree that enough north background flow will remain to help give us another windy afternoon. Low pressure is forecast to strengthen over the interior west on Thursday, and as a result we will likely see the background flow become west over BCS, however as the low quickly moves eastward into Colorado by Thursday afternoon, a new surge of north flow may reach us during the afternoon. Pacific high pressure will again build into the Baja Peninsula on Friday, with increasing north flow. Long-range forecasts are in good agreement that surface high pressure will build into the western U.S. on Saturday, bringing another round of norte conditions. The norte should subside on Sunday, but moderate north background flow will likely continue and combine with full sunshine to give us another windy afternoon.
