  1. CalNex Forecast Prepared  Sunday27 June 2010

  2. Anticipated Flights NOAA Twin Otter Sun:   two flights Mon:  potentially one flight?  Tue:   transit to LA Wed:  Mexico flight CARES DOE G-1 and NASA B200 Sun:    AM/PM flights likely Mon:   AM/PM flights likely Tue:    MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

  3. Local Features - Sac area focus Sunday - synoptic flow weakens significantly, terrain driven flow with light W delta inflow coupled with upslope flow; pollutant concentrations build (Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups forecast); CANSAC appears better solution than COAMPS today; weak flow to east in Sac (downtown to T0 flow doubtful; urban flow toward T1 with long transport time) but bulk of urban flow south of T1; winds <5 kts. Monday - high pressure ridge lingering - primarily terrain driven flow; light NW to W wind coupled with upslope flow in foothills; no or limited Delta inflow; with light winds, Sac air flows south of T1; USG air quality likely. Tuesday - smoke possible from prescribed burns in Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks.

  4. Synoptic Overview NOTE:  FORECAST NOT UPDATED FROM SATURDAY'S CALL (only change is that ridge slower to break down and Monday will be similar to Sunday)  Sunday June 27 • High Pressure peaks • Light and variable flow • Onshore gradient weakens Monday June 28  • High Pressure breaks down as Trof approaches • Transport flow SW north, Southerly south • Marine layer deepens in the north • Light and variable flow S.CA Tue – Thurs • Tue:   Deep Trof approaches, SW flow throughout • Wed:  Trof axis over N.CA late aftn-eve, SW flow, deeper marine layer • Thurs: Trof axis over Ca, W-NW flow in N.CA, W-SW in S.CA
