Josh Rubenstein's Weather Forecast (Sept. 18)

STUDIO CITY (CBSLA.com) — Well...you made it!  That was a tough stretch of hot temperatures and now we are on the other side.

We are looking at some cooler weather over the next few days.  A trough is dropping down the west coast...and by tomorrow an upper level low will pinch off of it and linger over Southern California through Saturday and Sunday.

Our weather will be characterized by AM low clouds and below average temperatures.  The marine layer could be thick enough to give us some drizzle.

By Monday next week, high pressure starts to build once again. Look for some warming (not nearly as hot as this last week).

Initially I thought that high would dominate, now it looks like a big trough is going to dive into the west coast.

The pressure gradients are pretty tight with this next trough...that just means it will be more of a windy event.

The long range models are hinting at a new pattern setting up with a series of troughs moving into the west coast.  This could spell the beginning of an inside slider run  (high fire danger and high winds).
