light and variable winds are expected into Wednesday and early Thursday before an east and southeasterly flow regime begins to take over for the end of the week and upcoming weekend. With a strong pressure gradient developing, and the combination of the atlantic seabreeze, expect cautionary/advisory level conditions to develop for the weekend. The strongest winds are likely to be in the overnight and early morning hours as the easterly surges from the atlantic seabreeze pass through.
