..DISCUSSION FROM MONTEREY
THE MARINE LAYER HAS REFORMED OVERNIGHT AND BETTER ONSHORE FLOW WILL
RETURN TODAY. THIS WILL CAUSE TEMPERATURES TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY
COOLER THAN YESTERDAY WITH HIGHER RH. ON THE OTHER HAND, ONSHORE
WINDS WILL BE STRONGER THAN YESTERDAY, PARTICULARLY AROUND MIDDAY
AND THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THE MARINE LAYER WILL GRADUALLY COMPRESS
OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS, ALLOWING THE INLAND TEMPERATURES TO CREEP
BACK UP.
NOTE : ALL WINDS ARE 20-FOOT WINDS UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED.
THUNDERSTORMS IMPLY STRONG, GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS.
