SYNOPSIS FOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WATERS
STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS
WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE OUTER WATERS THROUGH THE WEEKEND, WHILE
WINDS WITHIN 10 NAUTICAL MILES OF THE SHORE REMAIN MUCH LIGHTER.
WINDS OVER THE OUTER WATERS WILL INCREASE TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY
MORNING, BRINGING POTENTIAL GUSTS NEAR GALE FORCE TO THE NORTHERN
OUTER ZONES. A DEEPENING TROUGH OFF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST WILL
WEAKEN THE PRESSURE GRADIENT EARLY NEXT WEEK, LEADING TO LIGHTER
WINDS AND IMPROVING MARINE CONDITIONS ACROSS THE AREA.
