A surface high offshore will slowly be replaced by a weak front crossing the area waters tonight into Saturday. Southerlies will increase over the coastal waters leading to Small Craft Advisories, along with the East Entrance of the Strait, the Northern Inland Waters, and Admiralty Inlet. These winds will gradually decrease into Sunday. Active water looks likely early next week into midweek, where a developing low pressure system could bring stronger winds and elevated seas to the coastal waters. Combined seas this afternoon around 6 to 8 feet will start to increase to around to 10 to 14 feet tonight and into Saturday morning, remaining above 10 feet through the weekend. Seas will subside on Monday before increasing again midweek with the aforementioned low pressure system. Mazurkiewicz (Issued: 817 PM PST Fri Mar 7 2025 by NOAA)
