Late spring type of pattern expected with broad surface ridging remaining centered well offshore with low pressure inland throughout the week ahead for varying degrees of onshore flow. This will lead to periods of small craft advisory strength northwesterlies over the coastal waters as well as small craft advisory strength westerlies in the central/east strait each afternoon and evening. A couple of systems passing to the north of the area late in the week could increase the onshore flow enough to produce westerly gales in the central/east strait. Seas will hold around 6 to 8 ft through Friday before increasing 8 to 10 ft by Friday into the weekend. 27/HPR (Issued: 814 AM PDT Mon May 13 2024 by NOAA)
