Issued Zones:  Santa Barbara, Ventura, Kern County Mountains …

Site:  Southern California Weather Force has issued a Special Weather Statement effective now …

Date:  10/12/19 at 10:30am PT

Forecast: A very strong Pacific Trough is set to move into the Western United States after this Thursday.  This should bring strong west winds Thursday to the region, and even stronger northwest winds Friday into Saturday. 

Some of my grids do suggest this could be a classic I-5 corridor northwest wind event as well and across the Special Weather Statement zone we could see wind gusts of 40 to even over 60 mph at times, including the Gorman/Tehachapi zones during the days listed in this alert.  Should this continue to be possible, a High Wind Watch will be needed sometime next week ahead of the event.
