SYNOPSIS FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WATERS
A HEAVY SWELL CONTINUES
TO MOVE THROUGH THE COASTAL WATERS. IN THE WAKE OF A WEAK COLD
FRONT, WINDS CONTINUE TO DIMINISH WITH THE PRIMARY HAZARD NOW BEING
A HEAVY, LONG- PERIOD WESTERLY SWELL CONTINUING INTO MONDAY,
PEAKING LATE TONIGHT.
KEY HAZARDS & MARINE IMPACTS:
* HEAVY SWELL: EXPECT COMBINED SEAS TO BUILD TO 11–13 FEET AT 16
SECONDS BY LATE THIS EVENING. THESE CONDITIONS WILL CREATE
HAZARDOUS BAR CROSSINGS AND STEEP SEAS IN THE INNER WATERS,
PERSISTING THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON.
* SNEAKER WAVES & SURF: BREAKERS UP TO 16 FEET ARE EXPECTED AT
WEST AND NORTHWEST FACING BEACHES. WHILE THE SWELL IS LARGE,
THE LONG PERIOD (16S+) MAINTAINS A HIGH RISK FOR UNEXPECTED WAVE
RUN-UP ON BEACHES AND JETTIES.
LOOKING AHEAD:
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE WATERS BY TUESDAY, LEADING TO A
PERIOD OF LIGHT WINDS AND SUBSIDING SEAS THROUGH MIDWEEK. ANOTHER
LONG-PERIOD SWELL IS SIGNALED FOR LATE THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY.
