Santa Ana Wind Warning Issued For Thursday; High Resolution SCWF Zoom-in Models Released; Ontario Airport Delay Advisory

845Shares

The earlier issued Santa Ana Wind Watch has expired, replaced by the Official Santa Ana Wind Warning in effect Wednesday night through Thursday.  Experimental high resolution wind intensity images are within this article as a test of a new outline so the regional locations are zoomed in a bit more by region so read on for details …

The Santa Ana Wind Watch issued on November 27th stated that this is an east wind event.  The drainage wind event is when very cold air hits the Great Basin and Rocky Mountain areas, spilling westward off the higher terrain and through our mountain and mountain pass areas into the populated zones. 

East wind events tend to favor Ontario International Airport having the risk of delays or redirects, so if you have plans to fly into this airport on Thursday morning or early afternoon, you could be redirected to Las Vegas or Phoenix Sky Harbor.

East wind events also favor the Banning Pass, Trabuco Canyon (Highway 74 as well), Camp Pendleton test and firing area, San Diego Mountain/Foothills, and Escondido, Tecate, Tijuana, Rosarito, Ensenada area, as well as Bakersfield and Ventura.

East wind events do not favor the San Gabriel Valley like north wind events do.

This is also the SCWF Fire Weather Warning from dry conditions along with these winds.  Offshore winds will continue through the weekend, but not as strong as Thursday’s event.

Basically just use the SCWF high resolution model maps below for Thursday’s event – Images are clickable to be larger.
