Synopsis for the central california coast and bays including the Monterey bay..Greater farallones...and cordell bank national marine sanctuaries...
building high pressure and a subsequent strengthening of the pressure gradient will allow for strong northwesterly winds to prevail through the weekend posing hazardous conditions for small crafts. Periods of gale force gusts will occur through the week, especially over the coastal waters. Moderate period northwesterly swell will continue to move through the waters through Thursday causing wave heights up to 12 feet.
