Onshore flow continues as a weak system approaches the area across the north. Elevated winds through the Strait of Juan de Fuca through the early morning Monday. The gale warning remains in effect, with small craft advisories for the adjacent waters. Another round of gusty winds is possible Monday night as well with the following disturbance so will see how winds develop with this round and consider any needed extensions or subsequent warnings or advisories. Meanwhile, seas remain rather steep across the coastal waters this after noon. This, coupled with continued gusts into the 20-25 kt range, warrants the continued advisory through this evening. Expect that the winds over the coastal waters will ease and the dominant period to lengthen a bit, so this advisory will run through 11 PM as planned for now. Onshore winds look to temporarily weaken around midweek, but again likely strengthen later in the week. Seas over the coastal waters will build a bit with each passing system to 7 to 9 feet with periods remaining short (around 8 seconds). Cullen (Issued: 826 PM PDT Sun May 12 2024 by NOAA)
