That climo report came out at 9z so I'm not sure if they'll give that to D1 or D2...

 

They'll give it to D1, because that's how it works. :P

 

Wind is not 06z-06z, it's whatever the climo says. Climo is valid from midnight to midnight local standard time, so 1AM to 1AM PDT in the case of KSDF. That is, the wind for a given day in this city is measured between 08z and 08z.

 

Regardless, it's clear the highest winds came around the 9:48PM PDT obs, which is 05z, so even if that wasn't the case (which it is), the 25kts would still probably stand.

Will the intra-hour max kill my 82F today? Hopefully not. Tomorrow should be a fun day for winds at the very least!

 

I went with 84F today so I'm hoping for an 83F inbetween obs.  I nailed the low though (unless there was something inbetween as well).  

 

but yeah I'm working on my forecast for tomorrow and really debating on what I want to do for winds...I keep going back and forth on what I want to go with

75/57/29/0. 

 

Sandberg occasionally gets above 30kts but it's not very often. There will be a strong pressure gradient and CAA in a favorable position (NNW), so I think 30 has a shot. Either way I'm close enough to consensus on temps that as long as the wind is there, I should make up a point or two.

I went 75/59/27

 

Not so sure how much they drop with winds remaining gusty tonight.  

 

Was interesting though to see GFS MOS bump up afternoon high and bump down nighttime low

I was thinking maybe 6z low tmrw night

 

 its nice to know a lot of us have similar #s and went for the higher end for wind
