Forecast for Marine Location Near Gearhart, OR
Discussion for Portland, OR
MARINE...Gusty southwesterly winds today are causing winds to increase to Small Craft Advisory levels. Buoy 46089 and 46050 have gust to nearly 30 kt today while buoys closer to the shore in the north have been closer to 20 kt. These conditions will persist for the next several hours in the post frontal environment. As winds begin to decrease, seas will build to around 15 ft at 14 seconds. There will be a steady building with some models suggesting seas near 17 ft at buoy 46029 by Sunday morning. Hazardous seas are expected through late Sunday. As this front fully dissipates, high pressure builds in starting Monday afternoon. This ridge will cause winds to shift to the east-southeast. Areas near the coastal gaps and Columbia River Bar may experience locally elevated winds. Seas will slowly fall through this time period to near 6 ft at 12 seconds before building once again on Thursday with the approach of another system. -Muessle .BEACH HAZARDS...Starting late this evening into Sunday early morning seas will build behind the passing front. With these seas increasing to 13-15 feet and a long period 14 second swell, there is a high risk for Sneaker Waves on Sunday. These waves have the capacity to rush up further inland along beaches with a lot of power. They can easily dislodge logs, and sweep people off of their feet. Be sure to monitor the ocean swells, keep animals and children close, and be cautious if exploring jetties.
