Northwesterly winds will remain breezy across the
coastal waters today in the wake of a frontal system that moved
through earlier this morning. High pressure will build across the
northeastern Pacific this weekend, though another disturbance
will move along its periphery and across the area waters Sunday
into Monday. Onshore flow will continue, with another round of
small craft strength westerlies expected down the Strait of Juan
de Fuca this afternoon and evening. Another onshore push is
expected along the Strait Sunday night into Monday, likely
yielding another round of small craft headlines. High pressure
will then persist across the northeastern Pacific through midweek,
before weakening on Thursday as the next system approaches the
waters Thursday night into Friday.
Seas across the coastal waters remain steep and generally persist
between 8-10 ft at around 8-10 seconds this afternoon. Seas will
subside towards 7-9 ft by tonight, before falling to 6-8 ft on
Sunday. A brief uptick towards 10 ft is possible again late Sunday
into Monday, before seas subside towards 4-6 ft on Tuesday.
