Active and unsettled weather continues as we move into the new workweek. Showers, some convective in nature with isolated lightning strikes, will continue to skirt across the area waters today into tonight as a pair of mid-level disturbances pivot southeast beneath a longwave trough, driving a pair of weak surface lows across the southern Washington offshore zones this morning and Tuesday. Small Craft Advisories continue over the coastal waters for steep seas around 8 to 10 feet with a dominant period around 9 to 10 seconds through 5 AM. Breezy winds will continue today, though opted to issue Small Craft Advisories through the central and eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca, where confidence is highest for wind gusts over 21 kt (80%). Brief and more isolated advisory-level wind gusts cannot be ruled out elsewhere with the convective showers today, though confidence is too low for additional advisories. Seas from 8 to 10 feet this morning will drop closer to 7 to 9 feet later today, then rise back to 8 to 10 feet into Tuesday as the next weak surface low traverses the area waters. Seas then look to subside to 4 to 7 feet Wednesday into the latter half of the week. Davis (Issued: 348 AM PDT Mon Apr 29 2024 by NOAA)
