...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS COASTAL
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA...

...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe storms may occur this evening across
coastal southern California.

...California...
Some convectively enhanced wind gusts may occur across coastal
southern California this evening in association with a low-topped
organized convective line ongoing near the LA Metro area. Local
WSR-88D VWP data suggests around 40-50 kt west-southwesterly winds
within the lowest 2-3 km AGL, while the 00z observed sounding from
Vandenberg sampled around 100 J/kg SBCAPE.

Otherwise, the potential for some stronger storms over the interior
valley of central California is expected to steadily diminish this
evening as the boundary layer cools and the parent shortwave trough
continues eastward tonight toward the Great Basin.
