For whatever it’s worth, in my observations I usually
discount local storms because I know that they are messing up the signals. And, even if no one else sees the cause in
the same vein as I, they would still see one of the symptoms that often may
equate to the same thing in the end. So
for whatever it’s worth, I knew that the signals were particularly bad
yesterday as the front (or whatever) passed that brought lightning storms,
hail, and reported funnel clouds (over the ocean) to the SoCal area last night
and this morning. But again, the signals were expected to be bad as the
storm was right overhead – so to speak.
Maybe I shouldn’t discount the local storms from my observations though. I have historically been looking for
combinations that bring tornadic storms to the Heartland of the nation/continent. Then again, if the local storm generates any local
twister-type phenomena, then I should also start logging all weak signal days
for future reference. Again, for
whatever it’s worth, the signals are at the time of this writing exactly the
same – more or less – as they were yesterday.
Maybe I will take a ride to a better listening point to baseline the
extraordinarily weak signals – for the SD signals are nearly as weak as they
get, in my experience. SB manages to
squeak through at some points but could still be a result mostly of weak directional
forces.
See:

Then again, this all could amount to a less than anticipated
combination as the pressure does seem to be rising and SD should be heard more
clearly and no real directional force seems at play to block SD or promote SB
for that matter. But the whole thing
could be due to the approach of yet another low pressure system.
