A cold front and trailing surface trough will pass through the region today. Yesterday's warm front has passed, and the storm/gale force winds have dropped down below criteria (primarily affecting small craft at this point). The gusty winds will continue today through this evening over the interior waters. Convective showers with isolated thunderstorms have been observed over the coastal waters this morning, and are expected to continue throughout the day today. There is a marginal risk of a severe storm or two, that may produce hail, wind, and a possible waterspout over the waters. Mariners should remain alert for thunderstorms over the waters throughout the day today. Ridging will rebuild well offshore on Thursday behind the low. Winds will be quieter Thursday night through Friday night. Another frontal system will reach the waters on Saturday with headlines likely for most of the waters this weekend. Hazardous seas of 16 to 20 feet will begin to subside later today, but are expected to remain at or above 10 feet into early Friday. A return of double digit seas is expected later in the weekend as another larger swell train arrives behind the weekend frontal system. 27/HPR (Issued: 852 AM PST Wed Nov 13 2024 by NOAA)
